Alas, TeXShop support for MetaPost is far from being decent. That's why 
I have written my own engines. They are available from my home page, but 
attached you find the most recent, yet unpublished, versions. One engine 
supports plain MetaPost and MetaFont, the other is meant to be used with 
Metafun macros, and it makes use of mptopdf (it correctly handles 
Metafun-only features like transparency and shadings). Each engine 
outputs a pdf file with one picture per page.

Put the .engine files into your ~/Library/TeXShop/Engines folder and 
don't forget to make them executable!

Regards,
Nicola

PS: TeXShop does not even support syntax coloring for MetaPost source, 
so I suggest that you use Smultron (I've also made a syntax coloring 
file for TextWrangler: if you want it, feel free to contact me by 
email).
