Maildrop
I just downloaded Maildrop. I look forward to using it with Mail.app! I noticed in the screenshot on the Maildrop site (http://www.pocketsoap.com/osx/maildrop/) a few additional scripts under the two Salesforce.com items -- Create Event, Create Note, Create Task. Are these specific to Entourage or are these related to Salesforce.com? It would be great to have these three items as Maildrop salesforce options.
One problem I run into all the time is that Maidrop holds onto my "related to what?" information until I uncheck the selection from that tab/side of the dialog. So I have put a bunch of information into salesforce with the wrong "related to what?" information by accident. I was sort of under the impression that I could use these tabs independently.
To get to the point... I would like Maildrop to reset after an execution of "add Email" so that no "related to what?" or "related to who?" was left selected. Leaving what was last selected makes me always go into both tab areas to uncheck things.
So I'd like to make another suggestion.
Could Maildrop send to salesforce only the text selected in the body of an email. I often only want to send a section instead of the whole email.

The other two items i'll put on the todo list, thanks for the feedback.
Maildrop is fantastic!
The scripts are not there. So that's the issue. I've installed maildrop twice. Is there an alternative mechanism for getting the scripts out of the package? Is it possible to get them from somewhere else?
I have a todo to add an option to re-run the install scripts stuff, I'll bump that up the list.
~/Library/Scripts/Applications/Mail (or)
~/LibraryScripts/Applications/Mail
I can't find a folders named LibraryScripts
I do have a Scripts folder and it does not contain /Applications/Mail
Should I delete the application and re-install?
Thanks for your help!
Ba Da Bing. That worked. Hopefully salesfrog will have similar luck. Thanks!!
You want them in:
~/Library/Scripts/Applications/Mail
i like Maildrop, but I have one problem. Mail adresses of one company produce an error "MALFORMED_SEARCH: ". The syntax of the mail adresses is A.Smith@company-name.de
Any clue?
Kind regards,

I have downloaded maildrop onto my Mac's harddrive (O/S 10.4+). It seems to have been a successful download. I cannot, for the life of me, figure where to go from here. Specifically, there are many choices displayed under apple sripts icon, BUT none of the choices include "Adds Email to Salesforce" or "Create Case in Salesforce". What's up?

2. open the DMG, drap maildrop to your /Applications folder
3. run it, this will install the scripts.
4. goto mail or entourage, with that app active, look at the scripts menu.
Could you tell me if there is any app to get all my SalesForce contacts synchronized off-line ?
Thanks
Thierry
Did you receive a useful, helpful reply? Ifd so, would you share ity with me? Either reply to this or offline to vfs@sunhydrocorps.com.
Thanks...Victor aka sharkman
Simon's response did the trick:
Perhaps the first run failed to copy the scripts, can you see if the scripts are there?, they should be in ~/LibraryScripts/Applications/Mail
Cheers

I'm having some issues with the Maildrop application. My fear is that it's more user error than it is application error, so I'm hoping you (or a community member) can talk me through this.
I've installed Maildrop successfully and have it running on my Intel Mac OSX machine. When I open up an email that I want to import into Salesforce I am able to successfully create a case; however, when I click the Add Email to Salesforce script in my scripts menu it looks like it starts to do something and then nothing happens.
I think that I have the scripts successfully running; however, I'm not 100% sure I've done that right, although I'd done it as the help menu specifies.
Please advise on how to import an email into SalesForce and what you think I may be doing incorrectly.
If that same person emails me back then the "From" includes their name and Maildrop will link with SF perfectly.
Am I doing something wrong, or is it a feature request?
I am in the process of rolling MailDrop out to my user community and the reaction so far has been very positive. We do have one enhancement request so far. When attaching an email to a Lead we would like to be able to search on the Lead's Company since we often know the company, but not the person.
Thank you,
Karen
although the lead company field is not show in the search results, the field is actually searched.
