I am using the auto add mail script to add new email to my DTPO inbox which works very well. I can easily classify an email to a particular client and so now, when sorted by date, I have a chronological list of email correspondence from the client.
While I can manually add the applemail sent folder, I would very much like to be able to have mail that I send automatically added to my inbox as well. I have spent hours searching the forums and I have seen talk of BCCing the email to yourself and that simply adds to more email traffic and duplicate copies of emails which are unnecessary.
I did see that someone had written a script to auto add the sent email to DTPO but I can’t find the link again so either the search criteria I have put in aren’t right or it has all been a dream
If anyone could either tell me how they get around this problem (or send me the link to the earlier message) it would be appreciated.
Thank you for the links. I found both of them and, in fact, I commented on the last one
I have tried the BCC to a different account but that just clutters up my mail since I tend to look at ALL mail rather than an individual mail account. It also means that I need to remember to BCC this account every time (as there is no way, I believe, to set up an auto BCC on gmail at this time).
It does seem to me to be a real shame that since the auto import of mail from apple mail script works so well there is not a similar script to import all sent mail. I used to use Daylite which had, as one of it’s killer features, a way of automatically linking any email to a known contact email address. If such a script were available for DTPO it would make the import of mail to DTPO so much better IMHO.
If Apple Mail rules would apply to Sent mail, such a script would be straightforward. But AFAIK you cannot write a rule in Mail that monitors Sent mail. However, take a look at Andreas Amann’s Mail Scripts. He has a “Filter Sent Messages” script in his package that monitors Sent mail and will move a message to a designated mailbox. If that works for you, then you could write a Mail rule that imports from that mailbox to DTPO using, for example, the script posted by Annard might do the trick.
