Entourage 2008 - how to script message editing

J

Jeff Wechter

Hello,

I'd like to discover or add some capabilities in Entourage.

For starters I'd like to be able to edit incoming messages and cleanup
added text junk (for example =20 - that's equal sign twenty return) at
the end of some lines.

I think I want an Applescript that I can I can invoke with a
keystroke, and that can fix up to 5 different boogers like this.

Also the possibility of grepping whole lines (for example attribution
lines in a digest's toc).

tia,

Jeff

We rarely see this type of error now. Is this frequent for you? I'm
wondering if you have some pref set incorrectly.

Entourage isn't doing it. It's the digest maker(s) for some mailing
lists.
