Firefox plugin: It's All Text! - O'Reilly Mac DevCenter Blog
Thanks to a post on Lifehacker, I found out about the It’s All Text Firefox plugin that lets you edit any text area in your favorite editor.

The trick is to point at the binary and not the application folder.
For example. TextMate.app is just a folder. You need to point to

To do this, you need to get past the application's folder.
When you are setting the preferences, you need hit the
key sequence of Command-Shift-G to target the binary within
the Application's folder.Great plugin!

Unfortunately, Outlook preview does not like this mapping to the vmware-host share for some reason.
If, after you re-start the VM and before you start Outlook...you simply change this key to a value pointing to the local VM drive...like "c:\Outlook Temp" for example...then, when you start Outlook...preview will work fine..."
