That might be an essentially different script, but it’s just an idea for a way to avoid a race condition.

I’d love to, but for some reason (event ordering or perhaps a race condition?) canceling the ‘send’ event simply doesn’t work as expected. The script fires on every call and it blocks the ‘send’ event, but for some reason it isn’t getting a reliable handle to the actual event anymore. If anyone has a hint I’d appreciate it.

First of all, THANK YOU for tackling this issue. I have longed for a solution to the wrong-sending-address problem for a long time, but without experience in JavaScript, I have not had the time to learn how to do this myself.

That said (and my inexperience noted), this script isn’t working consistently for me. I am experiencing two issues:
1) Pressing “Cancel” does not prevent the message from being sent. I know some people noted this several months ago and it seemed to have been fixed, but not for me. In any case, for anyone else dealing with this: an easy, if inelegant, workaround is to use Gmail’s Labs feature that delays sending for a few seconds, after this script has alerted you to the problem.
2) Inexplicably, sometimes the script catches sending and sometimes it doesn’t. I’ve tried reloading the page, reinstalling the script, sending from different addresses, and there seems to be no pattern to whether the script works or not. Sometimes I hit “Send” and I get the dialog asking me if I’m sure. Other times I hit “Send” and it sends as though I never installed anything.

Let me know if those make sense and if you have any ideas of how it could be fixed. And once more, thanks for working on this. It’s a dream come true.

One thing about updating GMail user scripts is that they won’t fully take effect until you log out of GMail and log back in. The most recently uploaded copy of the script, uploaded on the morning of 12/14, has your translation in it.

I’ve just tried it. Works like a charm but the popup is still in English. Anyway it doesn’t bother me.

Thanks a lot !

Give it a try now. I just updated it with the new message.

@Everyone:

I’ve created an i18n object for GMail Greasemonkey scripts over at UserScripts.org. If you can help with translations I’d appreciate it.

And the popup message is : “Vous allez envoyer le message avec l’adresse [e-mail]. Continuer ?”

Thanks again

If you can give me the text that is on the “Send” button of the French version I sure can. Also, if you would translate the popup message I can work with that as well.

Do you have any solution to make this script work with other languages of Gmail ?

I’m french and I have to switch to English (US) to make it works …

I tried to modify the source code but it didn’t change anything.

Thanks in advance.
