Email reference link?

Hi @kappabear, you can install scripts

in DEVONthink’s script menu:

  • Open Script Editor.app
  • Paste the copied script
  • Save it to DEVONthink’s script menu folder
    ~/Library/Application Scripts/com.devon-technologies.think3/Menu/

or in macOS’s script menu:

  • Save it to Mail’s script folder
    ~/Library/Scripts/Applications/Mail/

In case of this script the latter is the better option as you can then access it from within Mail.app without the need to switch to DEVONthink to run the script.


To use the script

  • select a mail
  • run the script from the menu
  • paste in a markdown or RTF document.

Note:

Clicking the RTF link does open the mail, however Mail.app does not become the active app, so it might be that the opened mail is hidden behind another app’s window. No idea why. Maybe something @cgrunenberg wants to check. Mail.app becomes active when a link is clicked in TextEdit.app.
