Red X questio
Hello tbtech, Is there a way that i may send 'dummy' messages to everyone in my address book, to make sure they still have a valid address? These people don't have to receive the mail, just something so I know it is no longer working? Not a line in the e-mail saying they must respond, but I was thing some more along the line of a reg X that will check each mail as it goes out, and if it bounces 3 times in a roe it will remove it from the address book, or marked it as 'not valid' Tia -- Paul F.

Re: Reg Ex for picking up email id from returned mails
Hello Raj, On Thursday, April 25, 2002 at 5:37:00 PM you wrote in [EMAIL PROTECTED]">mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (at least in part): R Now what I wanted to was to to check if the e-mail id mentioned in the body of R the returned mail [and so on ...] And here the _real_ problems is: As you already noticed the bounce messages are structured to different to make an easy regular expression search. With a lot of work one can find a regular expression that covers all mails you actually got, but chances are high one or two days later you'll get a mail with a slightly different format :-( If all MTAs would follow http://cr.yp.to/proto/qsbmf.txt it would be quite easy as D.J.B there describes a 'Bounce Message Format' (BMF) that's readable to human _and_ programs. I don't know the 'rate' of incoming bounces, but it might be in fact less work to put all addresses into an Excel sheet, grouped by regions, search there manually and drop a mail with a little help of a few QTs than writing regular expression that fulfills your needs :-/ Just my 0.02 , if somebody else feels in mood to write this regular expression and thinks this can be done in an acceptable amount of time: my respect in advance :-) Ciao Pit -- Regards Peter Palmreuthermailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (The Bat! v1.60g on Windows 2000 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 2) All Tagelines are currently busy.

Fwd: has text in message
Hello, We are using MIMEDefang to process email prior client delivery, and the product works very well. There seems to be an issue with TB, however, as the text body section of any offending message is getting lost. Recipients get the warning part, but the actual body is never attached. See mail example below. The original message contained several lines of text that are now gone. The same email did not have this problem with Outlook or Outlook Express. Is there some setting in TB that fix this?
