Removal of edit subject was unintentional. According to developers- when we
changed the appearance of mail headers, the dev removed this feature. Adding
it back in after the change ended up being very risky and we decided to
focus elsewhere. Download Edit Subject script and place it in your Entourage
script menu items folder inside the Microsoft User Data folder to change
subject.

The above link is no longer available. Could you please post it again as I too would like to edit the subject field in emails. I have Entourage 2008 installed.

Just tried it and it downloaded the file. It's a direct download link.

It's possible Mactopia munged the address. In case the above link does not
work:

Look in your downloads folder for the file.

Start over with a fresh download and try again. I have the script
working and it sure is nice.
