- | This is an Automator Service that sends the full source of a selected Mail message to the address of your choice (like spam@myISP.foo). | ||

- | Open it in Automator, edit the recipient address in the new message step, then after saving, copy it to your ~/Library/Services folder. | ||

- | <note important>**WARNING:** Since this uses keyboard short-cuts for cut & paste, and relies on a previously selected message- there can be problems. I deleted all my messages with it once, so use with caution. The timing of the keyboard short-cuts (follow me's) seems to be key- the slower the better- so there's a 1 sec initial pause after selecting the messages.</note> | ||

- | To make the process less dangerous, I removed the message send and message deletion short-cuts at the end of the workflow. To re-instate them, simply run a "follow-me" for Shift+Command+D to send, and another for Command+Delete to delete the selected message. | ||
