Re: Editing the Subject Line
Hello Rick,
I would like to see the ability to edit the subject line
Here's the link to support it
The wish is in Bugtrack for quite some time, and I support it.
It should be easy to implement and would finally be something very
useful and a unique advantage of The Bat, as most other Mailers can't do it.
Pocomail is one that does. I think there are a couple of popular email
progs that have this feature (Please - lets not start the program war
again. IF you really love Pine over the Bat, stick with it silently)
While your wish is implemented, or not, you may want to try this manual
only filter I have, only triggered with a Hotkey (Ctrl+9 in my case), as
(the base for) an easy workaround:
TB! Message Filter
beginFilter
UID: [2FD48406.01C971B2.1AE9CFD3.345A5F24]
Name: EditMSG
Filter: {\0D\0A\20`21\0D\0A}
ExportMessage OverwriteExist FmtRFC822 filename
G:\5CThe\20Bat\5Cedit\5Cmsg_edit.msg filenamerelative
G:\5CThe\20Bat\5Cedit\5Cmsg_edit.msg
RunExternal Wait CmdLine
Notepad.exe\20\22G:\5CThe\20Bat\5Cedit\5Cmsg_edit.msg\22 folder
\5C\5CMAU\5CInbox
RunExternal CmdLine
thebat.exe\20/IMPORTU\3D\22MAU\22;IN\3D\22G:\5CThe\20Bat\5Cedit\5Cmsg_edit.msg\22
IsManual
IsActive
IsHotkey
IsHotkeyOnly
Ignore
endFilter
What it does is: It exports the currently selected message to a .MSG file
which is then opened in Notepad for editing. Once editing is completed
and I save changes and exit Notepad, the edited message is imported into
Inbox.
If you copy it and paste it in your Sorting Office, you will have to to
assign your own Hotkey, and in filter actions change the MAU account
name and the full path to the .msg file.
HTH :)

Hello Robin, If you export as a Unix mailbox it retains the date received as well which, as I recall, the .MSG file doesn't. I personally don't care about received date, specially for the use I give to this filter. But yes, you are right. -- Best regards, Miguel A.

Re: Editing the Subject Line
Hello, friends. Rick (R) 05.01.2009 (20:41): R I would like to see the ability to edit the subject line R Here's the link to support it R https://www.ritlabs.com/bt/view.php?id=6700 This would be nice. I've got lots of stored messages which have misleading or just empty subjects. I do understand that modifying an original messages is probably a bad idea, but it seems reasonable to have the possibility of adding a custom (and editable) interface subject for a stored message, the one presented in the message list. It would be also convenient to employ those custom subjects in sorting, searching, etc. -- Alexander Gutman Current beta is 4.1.7.2 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
