Hi all, I have been moved over to Lotus Notes 6.5 and I am trying to create an agent to forward an email with a certain word in the subject. I have successfully created an agent to do this but when it forwards the email it does not include the subject line. However, everything in the body of the message is kept in-tact. I really have no idea what to do. I recently switched to notes from outlook. Any help would be appreciated. THank you

My agent is as follows-
Document selection:
field subject contains: test
action: send mail
- Trigger: on event
- After new mail has arrived
 
This is a known bug that was fixed in version 7.01
(Notes 6.5 is very old)

There are a couple of workarounds.

1. You could use a mail rule instead of an agent if this is in your mail file. (note mail rules only run on new mail, not existing messages)

2. In the subject section of your agent action, choose to use Formula (click on the "More" button).
The formula you need to use is very simple. Just type in the word Subject. This will use the subject field of the original message for your new message
 
Great, thank you! I was just informed my company is upgrading to a newer version. :)
