It would do in Outlook/Outlook Express. Outlook/Outlook Express don't
support the feature like TB or Becky does.

What doesn't work? The message ID link? Or the retrieval or the
message ID?

I just tested this out in outlook express. Conclusion: Doesn't work.
Just thought I would share that with you.

Hi Darrin,

D> Can someone explain how it works?

It sets up a regular expression pattern to extract all characters
(.*) contained between a matched pair of angle brackets. It then
passes the Original 'MessageId' header to the pattern matcher. The
result is a bare message ID. The mid: bit is just plain text to turn
it into a TB compatible mid: url.

It will extract the message ID from any email message.

Work? The regex works whatever.

Can a recipient of a mid: reference use it to look up a message in
their mailbase? Well, I'm not up to speed on how other software
works in this area. TB is pretty powerful like that. I think Becky
can do it. I don't think many others can.

Hi,
Ive been using this macro
(mid:%SETPATTREGEXP=";<(.*)>"%REGEXPMATCH="%OMSGID"%- )

Can someone explain how it works? Will it work only if the recipient
of the email has TB! or will it work with outlook express? If the
person who sent the original email has deleted the original does this
not work?
Sorry for the lame question, I just dont quite understand what this
macro is actually doing.
