Re[2]: editing mail
RG ... I still need [a way] to edit messages RA I have a filter that uses a simple batch file and my editor to do this pretty seamlessly. See my message RA mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (Re: Changing received mail subject) of this morning (my time) I looked up the mssg you point to above and am a little overwhelmed. Several lines of your email that I do not understand are excerpted here - [ Revise message filter ] BeginFilter Name: Revise Message Active: 1 Source: \\Personal\Inbox Target: \\Personal\Trash CopyFolder: none Actions: faExport,faExternal,faoExportOver,faoRunDetached,faoManualOnly,faoWaitCompletion,faoHotKey,faoHKCheckMsg,faoSaveUnix,faoHotKeyOnly ... snip, snip ... QUESTIONS: 1) How do I move this information into my filters? Is there some kind of import feature or do I have to put it in manually (which I would not know how to do)? I tried and can see some / most of the fields and how to set the parameters for them but others are more confusing. 2) Also above, it looks like you are moving the mssg to the trash or is there an import feature stuck away down there that works around that? 3) Does the mssg HAVE to be in the Inbox for this to work? -- Thank you.

Yes, changing the content subject line. I used this Eudora feature quite extensively as I need to print new email and do not want to waste 20 extra sheets of paper a day just Hotmail ads. U You should be able to change TB's print template so that it does it for you. I would love to finsd a way to even begin to get a handle on the macro language let alone to the point where I'd know how to just run off a macro that does X... Anyway, I still need to be able to edit messages as my email system _IS_ my filing system and, for some reason, the entire rest of the world doesn't send me email according to my filing specifications!!!

RO In case you haven't stored yesterday's message on your RO computer, you could check the list archive: RO http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/ For instance, I'd edit the full original email that the above snippet came from and rename it to: Bat archive link In fact this is what I am going to do!

RG How does one edit received e-mail mssgs? kg Do you mean changing message content and subject line? As far as kg I know, this isn't possible. The ability to change the subject kg line is a pretty frequent feature request. This is probably the kg only good thing I can say about Outlook e-mail: you can change the kg subject line very easily, to assist filing. kg Stefan (TheBat! developer) suggested I use Memos and turn on the kg memo column. While not as quick and easy as just changing the kg subject line... snip, snip ... ROUnless you consider moving the message to the Oubox, editing it and moving it to the correct folder to be a workable solution. Yes, changing the content subject line. I used this Eudora feature quite extensively as I need to print new email and do not want to waste 20 extra sheets of paper a day just Hotmail ads. Also, our email server adds a string to the subject line that, once read, is always deleted. Moving it to the Outbox, editing, then filing new email will be cumbersome, but I'll try it. I am still evaluating TB so I can get users here to a common platform away from Eudora Pegasus and this may be a deal breaker.
