    Reimport messages saved as RTF (RTFD) into Mail.app?

    The problem with that method is that the sent/received data does not show up in the columns. It will show up as a draft made the day you made it but never sent. Do you know a work around for that?

    Reimport messages saved as RTF (RTFD) into Mail.app?

    I needed to temporarily remove some email messages from Mail.app and so I went to Mail.app's file menu, chose Save As..., saved as rich text format (resulting in an RTFD file), and deleted those emails from Mail.app. When I was ready to put those emails back into Mail.app, I discovered that...

    Mac OS X 10.5 ideas

    A couple quick suggestions... Mail: Display not just email but also chat histories and other communications. A plug-in architecture of some sort would do the trick nicely.

    Find and replace or batch change in Address Book?

    Find and replace or batch change in Address Book?

    I'm looking to convert a whole slew of telephone numbers in Address Book to make them Skype compliant. There are a variety of find-replace patterns I want to use. One example is an area code in parentheses. For example, I want to change (215) to +1 215. There are thousands of numbers in my...
