Version: 2008
Operating System: Mac OS X 10.5 (Leopard)
Processor: Intel
Email Client: pop

Have installed Office 2008 for mac. In previous version you could edit the email subject box in Entourage for filing purposes. Does not seem to offer this option in Office 2008. Please advise

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.

Thank you for your advise.
Will this be added back to future editions of Office for Mac as it is a very important feature for filing relevant emails.

We never know what will be fixed. I would send feedback to Microsoft to let
them know. Squeeky wheel....
