How to marking email for follow up on a specific date

In projects I often receive e-mails which need to be followed up/chased by a specific date in the future. I would like to be able to mark them with a specified date and then file them in the relevant mail folder. On the date specified either the email re-appears in your in box for action or a reminder is sent.
The flag option is fine - but does not really help if one has many e-mails to follow up on different dates.
This must be feature which would be useful to 1000's of users - does it exist is there a work round? I have not found this feature on other e-mail applications including Yahoo.
Thanks in advance.

There are always programs on http://www.tuaw.com that do things like this. I don't know if any of them specifically do this. They always want to suck you in and live in their little iGTD world. I don't really conform to that. I am trying to write software that I would want to use. This seems like one that would fall into that category. Simple, easy-to-use, does one thing well, and doesn't get in your way.

Display All Marked / Flagged for Follow Up Emails Separately

Display All Marked / Flagged for Follow Up Emails Separately
I was wondering, is there actually a way to display flagged emails in some sort of folder or separate view at least, as it is common within desktop mail applications and any other user interfaces from free email providers like Gmail, Yahoo!, or AOL and the likes?
It's very complicated and not very user friendly to mark an email for follow up, because you need to decide at what point in the future you want to be reminded. When that day arrives and you're not ready to reply yet, you will have to go through each follow up email again and repeat those steps to re-mark them for a later date. And that is really annoying. Or am I missing something here?
Can't I just simply mark my emails, like, star them in order to review them later and to be able to have a look at them from time to time, just like it is possible in other applications or in your browser?
I have noticed that there is an option to star an email within a Gmail account, but I'm not quite convinced that they sync both ways properly anyway. Also, that feature doesn't come with all email services. For example, how would I star an email in my AOL account?
I understand that BlackBerry is not based on IMAP and therefore has its limitations, however, it would be nice if there was another solution for this, or an explanation at least. It's simply impossible to go through hundreds and thousands of emails in order to find a flagged email.
It's already a pain that the emails themselves won't sync (read/unread) with your desktop and other devices, but do you have any advice or workaround to improve the synchronization of flagging or starring?
I have been using BlackBerrys for many years now, and I really still enjoy them, but the fact that it isn't based on IMAP is a big downside and no longer up to date. Times really have changed.
Another thing: When I mark as follow up, the default time always seems to be 5 p.m. -- probably because the calendar day starts at 9 AM and ends at 5 PM by default. I thought changing the "day ends" option would do the trick and also change the default time for the reminder, unfortunately it isn't. Is there another way to change that, or will I have to set the time manually every time?
Your help is very much appreciated.

How to mark emails as unread/read with MFE?

Hi folks,
I am a newbie on MFE running on a Nokia E71. Works great but I havent figured out how to mark emails as unread.
Any suggestions where to find this function in the MFE client?
Thanks and best regards,
Jesper

I don't know how this feature works in Outlook / Entourage... knowing Microsoft, it's probably proprietary and does not follow certificate standards, but that's a guess. If they used standard certificate technology, in order for you to send mail encrypted to your client, she would have to have sent you a digitally signed message. Then, you can send her an encrypted e-mail. If you start an e-mail message to her, is the little lock icon to the right of the From field black or gray? If it's black, you've already got her certificate, and just have to click that lock to encrypt the message. If it's not, you don't have her certificate, and she will need to send you a signed message.

How to mark flag for deletion for bulk of customers.

Hi friends,
GM..
I hv a question , that how to mark flag for deletion for bulk of customers.Few function modules are there (eg. HRCA_CUSTOMER_DELETE ) which are going to 'XD06' transaction to set the flag for individual customers.
But data is huge so it's not possible to go & mark the flag for deletion for individual customers.So what is the solution for this.....
waiting for ur reply....
Thanx.
Regards,
Ajit.

Hi Ajit,
XD99 can be used as a appropriate mass deletion tool for customers .
It is good for max 500 customers to mark for deletion, if you have more than that some times you may get dump.
OR
You can write a program to read an excel file into an internal table and call the function BUP_BUPA_MASS_DELETE to delete the customers.
OR
To mark the BP's for Delete use the following code sample.
It marks the BP's for Delete and once you archive them delete them in bulk.
data : BUPANUM type BU_PARTNER,
RETMSG type ITMSG,
ls_central type BAPIBUS1006_CENTRAL,
ls_Central_X type BAPIBUS1006_CENTRAL_X.
ls_central-CENTRALARCHIVINGFLAG = 'X'.
ls_central-CENTRALBLOCK = 'X' .
move-corresponding ls_Central to ls_Central_X.
CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_BUPA_CENTRAL_CHANGE'
EXPORTING
BUSINESSPARTNER = BUPANUM
CENTRALDATA = ls_Central
CENTRALDATA_X = ls_Central_X
TABLES
RETURN = RETMSG.
if you give me brief i can help you out more.
Thank you .

Marking outgoing emails for follow-up

Hi,
A lot of the email I send out are messages I need to follow up on at a later stage. Right now, my approach is to review my outbox every week and then read every message I sent to catch up on any developments (yay for 'organize by conversation') and either archive if case closed or follow up. It's a bit tedious and requires me to read a lot of messages I shouldn't have to. It also means that in some cases I am sitting with somebody in my team and I'll miss an opportunity to check on status because I haven't added the issue to my 'to do' app yet.
What I'm looking for is this ...
While I'm composing a new message or writing a response to an existing message, I want to be able to mark this message for follow-up.
Here is what I've done so far ...
I know I can mark a message with a flag after it has been sent. But those are a significant number of added clicks and not a very elegant solution.
Same goes for tools like MailHub, which let me mark emails after they have been sent.
I've considered writing a script that gets triggered upon email send, popping up a dialog asking to flag the message or not. With Mail Act-On, I can run scripts that way. Better, but could get rather annoying quite quickly.
I've found MailTags, but it slows down Mail and the horrid user interface makes my eyes hurt.
And while the keynote showing off Mavericks had me hoping the tags would be in Mail too, I installed the beta and it seems there is no tag support included in Mail. I guess one can hope it will get added before final release, but I am thinking it will not be.
I'm sure I'm not the only person who faces this situation.
Any recommendations?
cheers,
Rob

This might solve your issue.

How to mark email messages as Not Junk?

When I look in the Junk email folder in Mac Mail, I see messages that I did not mark as junk mail. I guess Mac Mail is somehow filtering and classifying the messages as junk. Within the Junk folder, however, there are messages that are not junk. How to I mark these items (and future messages from the same source) as not junk, so that they appear in my Inbox and not in my Junk folder?
What I Think I Am Supposed To Do
1. Open a message in the Junk folder that I do not want to be classifled as junk.
2. By default, a "thumbs down" icon appears in the toolbar (View > Show Toolbar). I click on thumbs down to mark the message as junk. The thumbs down icon changes to a "thumps up" icon.
3. I click on the thumbs up icon to mark the item as not junk
Is this the right thing to do? When I do the above steps, the message remains in the Junk folder - it does not move my Inbox folder. But will future messages from the same source go into my Inbox?
Thanks

In case other are having this problem: With Outlook.com email, I found that mark email items as Not Junk within Mac Mail had not effect. Subsequent emails from the same sender still went into the Junk folder.
I had to sign on to my Outlook.com email at www.outlook.com website and mark the emails there as Not Junk. Subsequent emails from the same sender than arrived in my Mac Mail Inbox, as desired.

How to Send Emails for failed messages without using Alert

Hi Experts,
In our project, we need to trigger Emails for the failed messages in SXMB_MONI / Adapter Engine without using Alert Framewrok.
Please let me know the below :
1. Is this really possible to avoid Alert?
2. If possible, then can we accomplish this by creating any PI Scenario? Please provide me some knowledge.
3. Can we do it by writing any ABAP Code? If ABAP report can make it, then please provide me the code/ tables which will be needed. If any Blog/ Wiki is there, then please let me know the URLs.
Thanks,
Nabendu.

Hi Nabendu,
If your customer asks for mails with specific text for message failure, tell that it is not possible. Because Message will go through several engines like Adapter Engine, Integration Engine, BPE. You can not generate mails for the message failures in all these areas with out standard alert mechanism. These are pure technical alerts which only PI people can understand, not business alerts.
Example: assume your sender channel is unable to connect FTP Server, in this case you can not generate even though you will develop adapter module to generate alerts.
So for message validation only you can send mails not for message failures.
thanks,
madhu

How to full restore OS X state to a specific date from Time Machine backup?

Hello! Could someone please advice how to restore the state of my iMac to a specific date?
NOT to the latest backup?

The only way I found to make a full restoration of OS X to specific date from a TM backup is to launch OS X in recovery mode (Cmd+R during startup) and then choose "Recover from Time Machine". Full restoration took approx 2 hours.
Dislike it very much. During my being a Windows user I could roll back in a matter of minutes with system utilities

How to mark emails as "private"

A client asked me to sent her emails marked as "private" so that her secretary can't access them and those emails only go to her. Apparently there is such a function in Outlook / Entourage. Anyone know if Mail has something like this? Any other ideas?
Cheers!

How to Configure Email for a Specific job when its Fails

Hi
We have So many jobs running in our HR system and BW systems but with no proper Monitoring Configuration. We have Solution manager 7.0 with EHP latest version with CCMS configured. How to setup the email in Solution Manager using CCMS when Job failed?
Is there any standard way of doing it from HR system and BW system other than using solution manager? so that we can use it for Temporary solution.
Thank you for you support
Regards
Bhaskar

Hello Bhaskar,
I recommend to use SAP CPS by Redwood to schedule you BW and of course also your HR jobs.
Please check out the following document:
SAP CPS by Redwood - Increasing the Value of SAP NetWeaver Business Intelligence
Scheduling
The monitoring capabilities fo SAP CPS are described in the documentation:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/0a/1a5678b72c418d96242330b96473c6/frameset.htm
You can use SAP CPS together with SAP Solution Manager free of charge (and even the OEM license for SAP CPS is free of charge). This way you can also combine SAP CPS and Business Process Monitoring in SAP Solution Manager.

How to generate XML for following?

Hello Everyone,
I have following snippet of PLSQL code with for loops and record type arrays. Each loop can return separate number of rows and iterate that many times. For e.g. the for loop tab_rec may fetch 50 rows where as the for loop sql_rec may return 80 rows.
I need to acoomodate all of these record arrays into a single xml file. Each for loop will repreesent one data set. Something like this.
<dataset>
<set value = tab_rec(kounter).tvalue >
<set value = ?
</dataset>
Questions:
1) How can I dynamically generate just one single XML file for all for loops metnioend below in this message?
2) How can I dynamically generate tags for e.g. <set> tag above if I put XMLELEMENT() under a for loop kounter. To explain this in a better way consider pseudo code example below.
for i in 1..kounter loop
<dataset>
<set value = tab_rec(i).tvalue >
*<set value = *?* -- How do i generate these <set> tags when tebrec(i).value will return many rows?*_
</dataset>
Thanks for reading this post. Again, the exmple for loops to generate one single XML file is given below.
For loops in the issue are mentioned below
FOR a IN tab_recc
LOOP
tab_rec (tab_kounter).tsegment := a.ebs_table;
tab_rec (tab_kounter).tbytes := a.sizemb;
tab_kounter := tab_kounter + 1;
END LOOP;
FOR b IN sql_recc
LOOP
sql_rec (sql_kounter).thash := b.hash_value;
sql_rec (sql_kounter).texecution_read := b.reads_per_execution;
sql_kounter := sql_kounter + 1;
END LOOP;
FOR c IN sess_recc
LOOP
sess_rec (session_kounter).tsid := c.SID;
sess_rec (session_kounter).tvalue := c.VALUE;
session_kounter := session_kounter + 1;
END LOOP;
FOR d IN user_recc
LOOP
user_rec (dbuser_kounter).tphysical_reads := d.physical_reads;
user_rec (dbuser_kounter).tuser := d.username;
dbuser_kounter := dbuser_kounter + 1;
END LOOP;
FOR e IN ebs_user
LOOP
ebs_rec (ebs_kounter).tuser := e.user_name;
ebs_rec (ebs_kounter).ttime := e.rtime;
ebs_kounter := ebs_kounter + 1;
END LOOP;

Sorry for delay in response.
I have pasted the complete code that will show the relation ship between data and XML. What I am trying to do here is to prepare smal packets of XML through XML element and then roll it up to a final grand CLOB variable. and pass that through XML creation. I have used DBMS_JAVA package to append clobs.
The issue now I am running into, it generates JUNK in xml. pure junk and nothing else Thanks R,

How to set emails for multiple users?

Hello,
We have a scenario, where there are several users whose email is not set in "My Account". We want to set this in one shot, what is the best bet for us?
Also we want to send email to a person outside OBIEE infrastructure, how can we do this?
Please reply

I've found the same problem in OS X Lion, with Mail, iCal and Address Book getting confused when two Exchange accounts on the same server are configured, resulting in either missing or duplicate entries (despite everything appearing fine when accessing the accounts individually via Outlook or OWA). iOS doesn't have any problem with this setup; two Exchange accounts on the same server work perfectly; the issue seems specific to Mac OS X.
After some experimentation I've found a workaround. Since the issue crops up with two Exchange accounts on the same server, it seems possible to trick OS X into thinking the accounts are on two separate servers through a little DNS manipulation (which I realize may not be a practical option for everyone). Here's what resolved the issue for me:
My external and internal DNS FQDNs for the mail server were mail.mydomain.com.
I set up a new DNS entry - mail2.mydomain.com - as a CNAME for mail.mydomain.com.
On my Mac, I set up Exchange account #1 with the server set to mail.mydomain.com.
I then set up Exchange account #2 with the server set to mail2.mydomain.com.
Even though both FQDNs resolve to the same IP, this seems sufficient for Mac OS X to consider them as separate servers, elliminating the problems I had before when I set both Exchange accounts to the same mail server FQDN.
I've only tried this on OS X 10.7 Lion, and the recent 10.7.1 update, although I wouldn't be surprised if the same trick works for earlier versions of OS X.
