Hi there. I stumbled upon this group while looking for an Apple Mail
plug-in template. I want to create a very simple plug-in that does a
reformatting when I hit "reply" to remove doubly-quoted messages.

Is there any documentation on writing a plug-in?

Hi!

I can't remember if there is a template out there -- but it is pretty
easy to put a starting point together. I will see if I can help you
out (soon).

For documentation --- nope. Apple does provide for the loading of
3rd party plugins but there is by no means a public API or
documentation -- you have to reverse engineer Mail to figure out how
to get it to do what you want.

I am available for answering questions (as I am sure others here can
as well)

Scott

Hi Simson,

I remembered this one template, but I never tried it so I can't tell
much about it:

For what you wanna do I think you have to look at the
MailDocumentEditor class.

Thanks. I'll give it a try!
