Outlook Rule for subject line when words are ran together? - email

I have created a rule for a customer so that everytime the word "invoice" shows up in the subject line it gets sent to an "Invoices" folder. Well sometime the clients will send e-mails with a subject line such as "invoice/23242" and it will not filter that since invoice/23242 is run on. Is there a way for the rule to look for the word invoice no matter if its by it's self or if it has another character next to it without a space?
Thanks!

That rule should work, I have just tested it on the word "time" knowing that i have an email reminding me to fill out my "timesheet" today and the rule ran and worked. I am using outlook 2013 with exchange server.
Make sure that the rule is for "invoice" not "invoice " (with a space at the end)

Thanks. I tested this myself and noticed that it worked on my end as well. After further investigation it looks like there were mutliple rules that were conflicting with another ( The top said the more e-mail to folder based on e-mail address, the lower rule then said to move to invoices folder based on subject line) so the first rule was taking effect before the second rule could take effect.
Thanks!

Use AutoHotKey to Copy Data from DST (A Text Based Interface)

All day long, I have to:
1. copy an account number from Excel,
2. paste into a text based interface program called DST (the interface almost looks like Command Prompt),
3. hit enter
4. copy the name and address from DST and
5. paste into the corresponding form field in an Adobe Acrobat form.
It looks like AutoHotKey will automate me doing steps 1-3 & 5, but will it work in step 4, copying the name and address within the text interface (DST)?
I ask b/c I normally have to use my cursor to highlight each part of the name and address and copy/paste into the Adobe form, so will AutoHotKey know where to start and stop copying the first name, then the middle initial, and last name, and each part of the address, etc., even though each customer's name and address is different lengths?
If AutoHotKey will work, can you tell me some of the command names that will help do this so I can do some research on them to help get me started?
Thank you for any help.

tSendMail - New Line Trouble

I am trying to create an email with the some job status information, which I wish to put across multiple lines. However, whatever I do, I get the output in one line. Have changed the MIME type to HTML, used "\n", "\r", "\r\n", String Objects newline. Nothing seems to work.
Although I noticed that these characters do get processed, even though the outcome isn't as expected. I don't see them in the email body, which suggests that the text processor accepts them. Just doesn't process them they way it should. Do I see a bug in the component?
I am on Talend Open Studio 7.0.1, on Ubutntu 16.04.4 VM, on Windows 10 system (if that helps).
HTML < BR > works.
I tried it earlier but looks like I didn't structure my html tags well so it failed. Did it from start and got it right.
Guess what - The more you try, the more you learn. :)

mutt automatically add CR to newline when attaching a file?

I have just started using Mutt and I have a minimal configuration just to be able to send mail. I can send mail OK, the problem is when I try to attach a source file, the file's new line characters are automatically translated from LF to CRLF. I can confirm this by using hexdump. I also suppose that this problem originates from Mutt, because the problem doesn't appear when using other mail clients (like Gmail).
My .muttrc looks like this:
set from="Anh Le <anhlq2110#gmail.com>"
set imap_user=anhlq2110#gmail.com
set smtp_url="smtps://anhlq2110\#gmail.com#smtp.gmail.com/"
set editor="vim"
set markers=no
set include=yes
set forward_format="Fwd: %s"
I've searched around for this problem but can't find any useful information. Any help would be appreciated.
I think the problem is that, when you send mail is in HTML format, in this case, you have to add
<br>
at the end of line.

How can I open multiple attachments of the same name in an email, then move the sender of the attachment to a spreadsheet?

I have an internship and was recently assigned the tedious task of cleaning the email lists. My employer has sent me a series of email with email bounces as attachments, many at a time, all with the same name. I have considered ways of doing this most efficiently, I'm looking to avoid just clicking through like a slave. My thoughts were to create a macro using autohotkey's language, but I feel like maybe a batch file or some sort of Perl might do the same thing. Could anybody give me an idea as to how to do this, specifically with a batch file? Thanks in advance!
Mail::DeliveryStatus::BounceParser parses bouncing email addresses out of delivery report messages.
If you don't know any perl, then I recommend that you first convert the mailbox into some format that stores each email in separate text files, like MH or similar.
At that point, you can trivially use the command grep _pattern_ | sed -e 's/:.*//' | sort | uniq > _list_ to obtain lists of all files matching _pattern_. You may inspect/edit this file _list_ to verify that the desired results were obtained.
You may then create another director junk or whatever and move all the files listed in _list_ into junk with a command like perl -e 'chomp; rename($_,"junk");' < _list_.
If you'll need this regularly, then you could automate this further, likely using perl alone, but a one off task will probably involve more messing about with getting the right message list.
Alternatively, you could load all the emails into a single folder in an sane mail reader, like Mac OS X's Mail.app, and do simply search, select all, move/delete commands.

Powershell - MS Exchange E-mail Autoresponder

We've currently got an issue where we're receiving a lot of bounced e-mails (from an auto generated e-mail) back from people where a specified e-mail address is not valid (failure notice). I need to identify certain messages in the mailbox and respond automatically to them - as a newbie to Powershell I'm struggling a bit! I think I understand how to check for the occurrence of a string but I don't know how to iterate through an inbox to look at/get a handle on each message in turn and I don't know how to extract the subject or body text in order to analyse the contents and perform a string comparison. I fear this should be easy - but I can't find anything on the web that might do the job - can anyone help?
So just to clarify what you're looking for.
Mailbox A receives a large number of failure notice/bounce messages.
You'ld like your powershell script to search Mailbox A for every instance where the Subject line (or message body) contains "String X" and if there is a match, take some action?
Also, what version of Exchange are you using? You need to be at least on 2007 to use Exchange Command Shell. You'll then want to look over the Command Shell commands that can be run.
Look at the Exchange Message Tracking Log, and Pipe the results from one command you run to the next. Think of it like this...
(Run a command) | (Run another command on the results of the first command) | (Run a last command on the results of the second).

While not exactly the same, it might get you moving in the right direction.
