Author/Date | Lack of attachment flag; a simple workaround ! |
the gladiator 09/03/2006 5:11pm | You may have noticed that Scribe doesn’t offer the possibility to show, in the message list panel, a flag for the attachment (there is only a symbol in the message icon). The main drawback is that it’s not possible to sort the message on the attached file.
There is a simple workaround for this; you can: - set up a filter that checks if the incoming mails have an attached file - if they have it you store a value (let’s say 1) in the label field (you don’t need that field, do you?) - you select the column “label” to be shown in the message list panel You now have an “home-made” attachment flag and you can sort your messages on it From an implementation point of view the filter can be (Scribe v 1.88): Condition Tab: mail.AttachmentNames contains “.” (without “ of course) Actions Tab: action Set Label argument 1 See also my post “Filter conditions in version 1.88: a bug?” |
