@Rasmus - I created the first version of Org Mac Outlook a= nd at the time didn't have an active virtual running so didn't noti= ce the difference.

@Alan - It does make a diffe= rent if you have "Microsoft Outlook" as a shortcut into a Windows= virtual that has been exported/exposed to the Mac OS via something like th= e Parallels =E2=80=9CWindows apps added to Launchpad=E2=80=9D feature. =E2= =80=9CMicrosoft Outlook=E2=80=9D may try to launch the Windows Virtual =E2= =80=9CMicrosoft Outlook.app=E2=80=9D will force the OS X native version.

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

I tried this AppleScript
#+begin_src applescript
tell application "Mail.app"
=C2=A0 activate
end tell
#+end_src

and as I ran it it got normalized to
#+begin_src applescript
tell application "Mail"
=C2=A0 activate
end tell
#+end_src

Does the ".app" suffix really make a difference?

Best,

Alan
