However, if you export it in a Unix mailbox format you do keep the original received date/time. The following filter exports a highlighted message, opens it in my favourite editor (ultraedit) and when the editor is closed, reimports it into the inbox of the original account. The hotkey Ctrl+Alt+Shift+E triggers the filter. It requires a batch file (also listed below) to work. Modify this by putting in the path to your editor in the batch file, replacing "d:\batch\editmsg.bat" with the path to your batch file and replacing the word "personal" in the filter line >"ExtCmd: d:\batch\editmsg.bat personal" with the name of your account. I have the same filter in multiple accounts and just change that parameter in each to suit. ,----- [ Revise message filter ] | 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,faoHotKeyOnly | 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 | `----- ,----- [ editmsg.bat ] | "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 `----- -- 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
