X, but I think you'll see the same options in E2001.) There are checkboxes to link every incoming message to the corresponding contact in your Address Book. (Same for outgoing if you like.) So, when you get an incoming message, double-click the From field; this opens the contact record. Now, on the contact record, click and hold the arrow next to the Links button, and you will see a list that includes "Messages"; select that and a sub-list comes up showing all the messages from that contact (and to, if you checked that box). > > -- > To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To search the archives: > <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/> -- Add me to Palm/Visor: http://signature.coola.com/?[EMAIL PROTECTED] Allen Watson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> XNS name: =Allen Watson Applescripts for Outlook Express and Entourage: <http://homepage.mac.com/allenwatson/> -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To search the archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
