Drag  Drop. If it is a incoming message, then you just dd. If you
want to create a template from scratch, you hit New Message in any
account, type your template, Save as Draft, and then dd from the
Outbox to your Keepers folder.

 Another one is a message parked in the Outbox, is a message that has been
 completed but you don't want to send yet.

 Right. And one of the reasons for not wanting to send it yet may be that
 the message is not complete :)

and that is a draft.

I find that it is very dangerous not to have the ability to distinguish
between a message that is unfinished and one that is finished but not ready
to send.

It might be parked in the outbox for a number of different reasons my main
one is that I don't want to send the message yet but after an event or time
that I waiting for.

By click, read double-click, at least on my PC.  If TB cannot find the
message, it pops up a dialog asking where it should look, and if it
cannot then find the message, it displays a message saying so.

It doesn't have to only work in a user list setting. If we've been
exchanging mail privately and I wish to refer you to a message I sent
to you 2 months ago, a mid: link could make life much easier for you
where referring back to the message is concerned. That is unless you
delete your private mail as well.

MW If I send you a mid: link to some other folder in my system it's

Is the less than a line of text really a significant waste of
bandwidth considering that others may benefit form its being there? :-)

MW to get back to your point. All the mid: link did for me was to
MW bring up the search window, since I had already deleted the
MW original reference.


Yes, it didn't work because you delete a lot of your list messages
including the one the mid link pointed to. You'll therefore not find
them useful in many instances where you see them.

I don't use the list footers either since I don't need to. However, I
can't call them being there a waste of bandwidth. :-)

Re: Re: Drafts

2002-06-01 Thread Joseph N.

This is one of those threads I haven't been tracking, but something
now pulled me in, and going back through what I still have on my
system, is a message with this text:

MW If I send you a mid: link to some other folder in my system it's
MW useless to you. And a waste of bandwidth,

The idea of an MID link seems like a good idea to me, but I don't
understand this description of an MID being a link to a folder.  Isn't
the folder issue a completely separate issue?  The point is that the
users decide how to arrange their own archives, but the MID is a quick
way to find a specific message within those archives.  And if the user
needs a particular folder as a hint for where to focus the MID, then
perhaps the archiving system is deficient.  Again, that's not a reason
not to use MID's.

Re: Drafts

2002-05-31 Thread Miguel A. Urech

Hello Mark,

 Maybe I misunderstood what you said earlier, but I thought you
 wanted to have a repository of template files to use in further
 emails.

No, I'm just participating on this thread. I manage my repository of
template files with Quick Templates. That way I don't have to go to
any folder to look for my templates. No matter what folder I am at, I
just open the Editor and select a template from the QT list.

 Back to terminology, to me a Draft is something I'm working on but
 can't finish at the moment - the phone rang, I've got a meeting
 coming up, etc. A Template would be something I've already completed
 and want to use as a starting point for future work.

Agree.

Hello Allie,

 I'm utterly in love with 'mid:' links.

Yes, they are certainly useful. Virtual Access, the client that I used
for many years before switching to TB, has this type of link also. And
even more, you can easily set a link to Help contents (click on the
link and Help opens at the linked page). This would be a very useful
feature for TB... provided there was a decent help. ;-)

I generally keep the message id field displayed in my message header
bar. In this way, when I locate a message, I can easily copy the
message id from there.

For message replies, I use a regex macro since the macro to generate
the message id, generates it surrounded be  which isn't what you
would want. I've decided to include mid links in my introductions
since it's easy for the user to find the message being replied to,
especially if they don't thread.

Create a quick template and paste the following:

mid:%SETPATTREGEXP=;(?im-s)^Message-ID:\s*(.*)$%-
%REGEXPMATCH=%Headers

You can then create mid links for replies, if you like. :-)

Sorry to those who like short or no introductions but I think the mid
links are more useful than the date and time the original message was
written. :-)

I thread by references but I use the ticker virtual folder to read
only unread messages. Double-clicking the mid link takes me directly
to the original message. I find it very convenient to use. I would
normally double click the current message and then move up to the
previous message in the thread. Also, at times, messages aren't
threaded either because the reply is a change of topic and the user
wishes to break the thread or the subscriber is using another client
that doesn't provide reference headers (the latter being less common).
Finally there are those who do not thread their messages. All in all,
it's a useful addition to include. Redundant for some (there are those
who find an introduction of any sort redundant g), but not for many.

 mid: links? This is the first I've come across them...can you provide
 a pointer to more info? Or just explain here? Thanks.

mid: (message-id).  If you paste the message id of a message (on say a
list), and the user double clicks it, it'll allow the user to reopen
that message.  For example:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]">mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Double click that, and then tell it where you store the mail for this
list (for example I have mine in a folder called TBUDL).  It'll then
locate, and load that email.  You should notice it's your original one
to this ;)

MAU If you are editing a message, how can you save it in your Draft

MAU (draft) or un-parked.

 1. Save as Draft.
 2. Click on the parked message in your Outbox.
 3. Drag it to your Draft folder.
 4. When asked if you want to move parked messages, click Yes.

and then it looses it parked status.

Now try to edit it :)

Right. And one of the reasons for not wanting to send it yet may be

Since you don't get that message there are several possibilities:
1) You didn't get the message back from the list
2) You delete your own messages when you receive them
3) You delete all list-messages as soon as you've read them
4) You read this list in digest, so you won't get the individual

No. I meant templates. It was getting late last night and I was

The drafts are parked messages in the Outbox, which I find dangerous

As far as I can see... I have no drafts folder.  When I save as draft,
it gets put in the outbox, and flagged differently so it won't be
sent.

 I later click it, edit and send.  But then the message is no longer
 there. The purpose of a draft is that you have a template drawn up to
 use repeatedly.  But the only thing I have is a sent message.

Erm... I thought a draft was a 'first copy' of a document/email. When
you're done, you send it, and away goes the draft, as you've
'promoted' the draft email to full copy.

Re: Drafts

2002-05-30 Thread Miguel A. Urech

Hello Dwight,

 so why not just make a folder called draft, and put your drafts there?

If you are editing a message, how can you save it in your Draft
folder? AFAIK you can only either send it or put it in Outbox parked
(draft) or un-parked.

MW Maybe I misunderstood what you said earlier, but I thought you
MW wanted to have a repository of template files to use in further
MW emails. If so, creating a Draft folder and saving them there would
MW do the job, even if it takes a couple of steps to place them
MW there.

Why not use Quick templates instead?

Hello David Elliott,

On Thursday, May 30 2002 at 01:38 PM PDT, you wrote:

 A wish that there was a draft folder as I consider that messages that are
 draft are not the same as messages that messages that are parked in the
 'outbox'

That is one concept I wish RITLabs would adopt from Becky. I use the
Drafts Folder all the time... find it extremely useful.

Re: Drafts

2002-05-30 Thread Miguel A. Urech

Hello Mark,

 1. Save as Draft.
 2. Click on the parked message in your Outbox.
 3. Drag it to your Draft folder.
 4. When asked if you want to move parked messages, click Yes.

Of course. And then you can export the message as a Unix mailbox and
import it into Eudora and there is even less risk of inadvertently
sending a draft.

The issue is saving from the Editor in a folder different to Outbox.

Yes. I have such messages in a Common Folder. You can call this
folder Drafts or Templates, as you wish.

I click on the message I need, it opens, I hit Redirect. Now I can
work on the headers, like choosing an account this should be sent
from, and the From/To addresses. Don't forget to delete the
Follow-up-to headers if the original was an incoming message. Then, I
alter the body to my heart's content, and out the message goes.

With the unaltered original still in the Common Folder.
