Limiting characters in forwarded messages

J

Justin V

Is there a way, either with rules or VB, to limit the amount of characters in
forwarded emails? Here's my problem, I want to set up a rule that forwards my
email to my mobile phone as an SMS message, but I don't want it to forward
anything over 160 characters, which is the limit of a single SMS message. I
can get it to forward whole messages, but longer messages are delivered in
multiple SMS messages which is quite annoying. I would be absolutely pleased
if I could create a rule that simply sends the from and subject line as a SMS
message.

I'm resorting to this option because I haven't found a useful way of
receiving instant email alerts on my PDA phone over multiple email addresses,
none of which are on an Exchange Server.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance,

Justin
