I would like a simple script that will take an open message window
(draft) and do the following:
1. Apply a defined character set (i.e. "Greek (ISO)") - this is from
the menu Format - Character set.
2. Send the mail
My amateurish atempts to write one have failed*, so any help
appreciated. I need this because I often forget to apply the character
set and the text arrives at the other end as question marks.
Thanks

Save a Draft message, then duplicate it (cmd-D) when needed.

or

Check out these scripts on MacScripter.net that create templates:

"Message Template" script by Paul Berkowitz
This script lets you save a template, including one in Rich Text HTML, for
personalized, styled and formatted messages complete with signature and
whatever else you want, which can be opened by a keyboard shortcut
command-control-N or from the Scripts menu, without having to hunt around
for it. Note: It does not facilitate complex HTML templates with pictures,
patterns or graphics. (Script ID: 251)

"Insert Notes" By: Barry Wainwright,
Allows for easy use of standardized 'Boiler Plate' text to be inserted into
mail or news messages. The standard text is stored in Entourage Notes which
must be assigned a category of 'Stationery'. When the script is run a dialog
is presented which allows the user to select one (or several) of these notes
and the text is then inserted into the current draft message. If no draft is
open, a new mail message is created with the contents of the selected notes.
(Script ID: 326)

"Open Template" by Bryan Harris.
Presents a list of templates stored in a folder called "TEMPLATES", and then
opens a new message based on the selected template. Very easy to use, can be
assigned a keyboard shortcut.
