@Rasmus - I created the first version of Org Mac Outlook and at the time didn't have an active virtual running so didn't notice the difference.Commit ff771c5c7eab5c4d4a60e9f1270319758961338dAuthor: Mike McLean <address@hidden>AuthorDate: Sat Sep 7 16:29:40 2013 -0400Commit: Carsten Dominik <address@hidden>CommitDate: Sun Sep 8 07:56:30 2013 +0200Add Microsoft Outlook Support to org-mac-link@Alan - It does make a different if you have "Microsoft Outlook" as a shortcut into a Windows virtual that has been exported/exposed to the Mac OS via something like the Parallels “Windows apps added to Launchpad” feature. “Microsoft Outlook” may try to launch the Windows Virtual “Microsoft Outlook.app” will force the OS X native version.On Thu, Apr 9, 2015 at 1:11 PM, Alan Schmitt <address@hidden> wrote:On 2015-04-09 15:59, Mike McLean <address@hidden> writes:

I'd be happy to apply it. I have a question about it:

I tried this AppleScript
#+begin_src applescript
tell application "Mail.app"
activate
end tell
#+end_src
and as I ran it it got normalized to
#+begin_src applescript
tell application "Mail"
activate
end tell
#+end_src
Does the ".app" suffix really make a difference?
Best,
Alan
