I am using one based on the original message you remember. It has a single filter, triggered by a hotkey (Ctrl+Alt+E), that: * exports the message to a text file (Unix mailbox format) * runs a batch file to load this in my favourite editor (ultraedit) * re-imports the modified message into my inbox The filter is BeginFilter Name: Revise Message Active: 1 Source: \\Personal\Inbox Target: \\Personal\Trash CopyFolder: \\\\none MainSet: 00 Actions: faExport,faExternal,faoExportOver,faoRunDetached,faoManualOnly,faoWaitCompletion,faoHotKey,faoHKCheckMsg,faoSaveUnix AddGroups: DelGroups: ForwardTemplate: ConfirmTemplate: ReplyTemplate: FwdAddr: RedirectAddr: NewAddr: NewTemplate: ExtCmd: d:\batch\editmsg.bat personal ExtFile: e:\temp\edit.txt ExtractDir: ColourGroup: <default> AddAddrItems: afiFrom, DelAddrItems: afiFrom, HotKey: 57413 IsOfColour: <default> SizeBigger: 0 SizeSmaller: 0 AgeOlder: 0 AgeNewer: 0 InAddrPos: 0 OutAddrPos: 0 InAddrGroups: NoAddrGroups: KillFile: KillMethod: 0 SaveTemplate: SndFile: SysSound: 0 SoundTime: 0:00-0:00 AllowTime: 0:00-0:00 EndFilter The d:\batch\editmsg.bat file reads "D:\Program Files\UltraEdit\UEDIT32.EXE" e:\temp\edit.txt d:\progra~1\thebat~1\thebat.exe /importu=%1;f="Inbox";X;R;IN=e:\temp\edit.txt You will note that the batch file includes a parameter that is the nambe of the account that I want it imported into. That way I have the same filter in two accounts, but by changing that parameter, I can get it re-imported into the same account that it came out of. You will need to adjust the filter line: >ExtCmd: d:\batch\editmsg.bat personal to suit your account names Robin -- Robin Anson Using The Bat! v2.00.6 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 1 ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.00 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
