Applescripts for checking email with Claris Emailer and Eudora
Dropping this little script into your AppleMenu allows you to launch an email program and check for mail.
In your AppleScript folder is a little program called Script Editor. You can download the two versions of this script and open them in Script Editor to modify them.
To have the Script Editor find the path to your email program, open a new script (command-N), and click the Record button.
While in Record, open the folder your email program is in, and launch it. Switch back to the Script Editor and Stop recording. You can then Copy/Paste the path into the provided script as shown below.
Eudora Version:

Claris Emailer Version:

Outlook Version:

Once you have changed the folder path to your email program and changed the account name, use Save As... to resave the script with the following parameters:
Kind: Application
Check: Never Show Startup Screen
You now have a double-clickable application that will launch, or switch to your email program, and check for mail!

If you really want to spice up your script, open the email application in ResEdit, then the icl8 icon resources, and copy/paste a cool icon into your little script!
