BM I've not tested your filter with refilter. I used it with your
BM hotkey. It appears to work fine with the minor modifications I
BM mention below.
To test the filter, did you select a folder before hitting the
hot key combo? Did you select any messages?
Rule
Source: Inbox\04-01
Move messages to folder: Inbox\04-01A
BM Using the hotkey, leave these at their defaults.
How does the filter know which folder to filter?
Filtering strings:
StringsFrom:
Location Sender
Presence Yes
BM There's no need, with hotkeys, to add a filter for your harvesting
BM action.
I don't understand. Without a filter, how do I copy
the email address of each sender to a specific group
of an address book?
Active - checked
Manual only - not checked
BM Check Manual also.
Why?
Actions
---
Add addresses to Address Book
Items: Sender (From)
Add tp groups: taskvols (this is a folder in the Personal AB)
Options
---
Regex is checked
BM Why?
I had this from an earlier attempt when I was trying to
write a regex for the filter string.
Execute on CTRL-SH-F12
(Nothing else is checked)
BM Check This rule is executed only by pressing the hotkey
I close this, go to the Inbox\04-01, click Folder
Re-filter. It says that it filtered N messages, but when I
look at the AB, nothing has been added.
BM If you actually want to process all the mail in a folder, just use
BM ctrl-a to select all before your hotkey. The normal use, however,
BM would be to press your hotkey on a message whose sender you want added
BM to your AB.
The whole point is to grab ALL the from addresses from ALL the messages
in a folder.
Thanks.
