Using Office macros to forward email

G

Gerald Fay

Hi,

I'm using Outlook 2000 SR-1 for email. I also have a Times Pager watch
which can directly receive emails. Unfortunately, our Call Center is
having trouble sending messages to my Timex pager watch as text messages
are limited to 100 characters on the Timex.

The Call Center includes information about the Time, Number of messages,
senders name along with about 80 junk characters before getting to the
message text. The Text message always begins 5 lines down in the email,
and too many characters later for the Timex to display.

I am thinking it might be possible to use a macro in Outlook (the rules
wizard) to perform "an action" on messages if the Call Center sends them
as an email to my computer. I could then send the trimmed message to my
Timex using Skytel's email system

Is it possible to run a macro to remove the first 5 lines from a
message? Then put it in the Outbox with a new email address?

Thanks.
