- Name: deladrgrp.aem
-
- TO BE USED BY REGISTERED USER'S ONLY
-
- This ARexx script is used to delete an email address embedded in a message
- from a group entry in your Address Book. It is very handy to delete
- addresses that have been rejected as non-existant when a message has been
- sent to a group.
-
- HOW TO IMPLEMENT
- ----------------
-
-
- You need to bind this script to a function key or assign it to an ARexx
- menu for it to work properly. Call up the ARexx page of your
- Configuration screen in AEMail. Select the function key you want to bind
- this script to. Enter the script name (full path name) in the string
- gadget. Be sure you have AREXX selected in the cycle gadget. You can use
- the file folder glyph to call up the file requester to locate the script.
- Then save the configuration.

-
- HOW TO USE
- ----------
-
-
- When a message is sent to a group and email addresses within that group
- are no longer existant, you will get a message from the recipient's server
- with a subject that contains one of the following:
-
- "returned mail"
- "failure notice"
- "delivery failure"
- "mail failed, returning to sender"
- "mailer-daemon"
-
- Embedded within the message is the email address(es) which caused the
- failure. You may have more than one email address in the message.
-
- When you receive such a message just double click on the line containing
- the email address. The email address will appear in the Clip window. Now
- hit the function key that you bound the deladrgrp.aem script to or select
- the menu item you've assigned to the script.
-
- If you have assigned a script to the Email Addr exit you will have to
- press the CTRL key when you double click on the address. This forces the
- clip window to appear and allows you to press the function key or select
- the appropriate menu item.
-
- You will be asked for a group nickname. A listview will be displayed that
- asks you to "Select the Group Wanted". All the groups in your Address
- Book will be displayed. You can click on the group you want to delete the
- address from. The group name will appear in the string gadget below the
- list view. Click on [OK] or press RETURN to accept this group.
-
- If you cancel the "Select the Group Wanted" requester or one of the error
- notifications, you will exit from the script and will have to restart it.
-
- You do not have to be connected to your Internet provider for this script
- to work.
