rule help!!!

[RetrogradePAK]

In my Notes 6.5.1 have created a rule agent in which if the "subject" contains "Jobs" move the mail in the Jobs folder

Now i have created this rule today and this will apply to all future emails but there are lots more already in my inbox.... How can i apply a particular rule manually on my inbox again???? or do i have to create some agent, if so , then how??

You will need to create an agent to select all documents where Subject contains your kay value. You can use Simple Agent function to do that, or with the formula :

SELECT @contains(@uppercase(subject);"JOBS")

Once the agent runs, it should select all docs that correspond to the formula.

Once all the docs are selected, the simplest thing is to just drag them manually to the folder you want and be done with it.

I've got nothing to hide, and I'd very much like to keep that away from prying eyes.

thanks but can we modify the agent so that it not only selects the documents with word "jobs" in subject line but moves it in the jobs folder as well

also how can i ensure that it should run on all emails in "inbox" only

Okay, I think I need clarification here : is this a one-off job or do you want to do this across several mailboxes ?

i managed to create a rule in which i specified the selection criteria as well as action to take on them "move to folder"

thanks for the help

Glad to have been of service.

Dear All,

As you know i have created an agent that will scan the current view (i usually do the inbox) for an email which contains "vacancy1" in subject line and move it to folder called "vacancy1". Problem is that we have lots of vacancies and i have to create separae agent for each of them

Is it possible to create an interactive agent using domino designer in which a dialog box will popup and i can:

1. Enter criteria in a simple text field
2. I can select folder from a drop-down menu

This will enable me to create only 1 agent instead of many. Note that i am a novice with domino designer

This is a new question - you should create a new topic for it.

What you want to do is basically enter the name of a folder and move to that folder all documents that have the folder name in the subject.

So all you really need is to select the folder name. In Formula language, you could go about getting that by using the @SwitchView command, then getting the @ViewTitle info. The bad part about that is that you'd have to switch back to the Inbox to run the rest of the code, and all those switches are visible to the user and possibly confusing and/or annoying.

Of course, in LotusScript it would be possible to control the process a lot better. You could make a list of folders, ask the use to choose and complete the process without all the view switching.
