Hello All
I don't know if this would be useful to anyone else, but I thought I'd post
it.
Given the ridiculous number of steps Outlook Express puts you through to
create and then apply message rules, I made an Auto-It script to apply NEWS
rules to entire folder "Outlook Express." The script assumes OE is open and
has focus.
For you Auto-It aficionados, here is the simple script text (Sorry, given
the nature of this newsgroup, I can't attach an Auto-It or compiled
stand-alone script. But you Auto-It folks will know what to do, if you are
interested). You can modify to open and wait for OE or to apply to email
rules, etc. Just an idea.
CAUTION!: If you run this while some other window has focus, sending these
keystrokes will have unintended consequences. :O(
