When I save email messages as text documents, I want them to open in BBEdit,
my preferred text editor.

In Entourage X (test drive version), when I save a message as a text
document, it has the creator type for unknown application: '????'.   If I
save without a filename extension, OS X Finder sees it as a C header and
opens it in Project Builder.  If I save with a ".txt" extension, the Finder
associates the document with TextEdit.

Is there any way to set Entourage so it saves text documents with BBEdit's
creator type?

I have read that the Finder "Get Info" window can be used to set the
application binding for all documents of a given file type.  But when I
changed the "Bind this item to" popup menu setting, the binding would not
stick, and reverted to <no specific application>.

Am I missing something, or is this just another example of the OS X metadata
mess?
