external script/program
hi all, i need a solution for changing mails before sending using an external script, because i think theres no better solution (outgoing filter just copies the mail, instead re-getting after running the programm) i need a daemon for windows which just gets the mail from the bat runs the program and sends the changed mail - anyone knows a tool like that?

You will do filter for outgoing (incoming) messages, run script and import those changed mails back. It should work :) And also with xrayapp it is nice solution. -- ...m8s, cu l8r, Brano.

ok, nevermind - # Outgoing mail - These filters are invoked after messages have been sent to the SMTP server. :( Current version is 1.61 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Hello Benjamin, On Mon, 7 Oct 2002 13:37:36 +0200 GMT (07/10/02, 18:37 +0700 GMT), Benjamin Schulz wrote: BS but that would only work if i could create a filter which runs the BS programm and does not send the mail - but i found no option for that BS :( Create a manual filter to which you assign a hotkey. Save the message as draft (so it will be in the Outbox but will not be sent accidentally), hit the hotkey. The filter should export the message, run the external program, and then re-import the message. I am not sure that this can be done in ne filter, maybe you will have to use two. -- Cheers, Thomas.
