Category on Email Replies

[jasonphillipstx]

When I assign a category to a new email send and to someone, their reply does not have the category. Is this by design?

Do user-defined fields stay or get stripped?
If they stay, could I make a workaround with a VBA macro that copies the categories over to a user defined field before send. When the reply comes in another one could check for the user defined field and then copy it to the categories.

Anyone else having this problem. I know you can do it some way because GTD and ClearConext do similar things.

User defined categories are stored in the Windows registry.

mintjulep,

I am aware of that. What I meant was that the message itself no longer has the category I set on the original email when someone replies to me...whether the category was user defined or master.
