Hello TB Tech List,
The filter found in The Bat! Library does not function as
"advertised." The problem is in the export template. The following
macro was tested with all 21 possible locations of multi-line
In-Reply-To and References lines (since I don't know the official
rules as to where these must be).
What are the 21 locations? If 'I' represents a set of In-Reply-To
lines, 'R' represents a set of Reference lines and '-' represents
other header lines, the 21 possible locations are:
-, I-, -I-, -I, R-, -R-, -R,
IR-, I-R-, I-R, -IR-, -I-R, -IR, -I-R-,
RI-, R-I-, R-I, -RI-, -R-I, -RI, -R-I-

The Remove_Reference export template is very similar. The only
difference is that it ends with these two lines:
%SubPatt="4"%SubPatt="5"%SubPatt="6"
%Text%-
I don't believe this set of filters will work with attachments. One
way of doing that is to export the mail as a Unix mailbox file and
running an external utility to do the deed.
Please let me know if you see any improvements or problems I've
overlooked. I plan to post the filters (in LDI Format ready to be
pasted into the Sorting Office) in TBUDL after this List has had a
chance to comment.
