On Sat, Apr 10, 2004, the following words from Christian Roth [EMAIL PROTECTED], emerged from a plethora of SPAM ...

I'm a filter fiend - mostly due to the fact that I find trying to drag and drop while a list is scrolling very distasteful. I usually manage to overscroll, then scroll beyond the target again when going backward. So I have filters that auto-file most messages that go to the same people/ mailing lists. For the occasional message that can't be dealt with using a filter, I rely on AppleScripts that are triggered by Quickeys buttons. Even in the Finder, I try to avoid drag and drop to destinations that aren't in view by using a contextual menu utility called Quick Access to move, copy, create aliases and open folders. But, I'd be happy if there were a "File In ..." contextual menu. I also really liked how Mail had the option to file a message in the last recently used folder (Does it still have that feature?). It would also be nice to have a PM contextual menu of Services and recently used AppleScripts. -- Sometimes even to live is an act of courage. - Lucius Annaeus Seneca, writer and philosopher * 867 PowerBook G4 * OS X 10.2.8 * 768 MB Ram *
