I've been experimenting with a couple of ideas but nothing has stuck yet. I haven't given up yet and will make sure to post something as soon as I figure this out. If there are any scripters out there with ideas, I am all ears :-) Best, -Adam Mark,

These scripts create an @Tickler folder under "Folders on My Computer", so I wouldn't think this would be a problem? Iain - I've been kicking around some ideas on how to integrate these scripts with IMAP and Exchange. I'm going to try and work this up over the holidays (Aug 29 thru Sept 25).

Just a quick question from me, is there any idea if/when there will be an updated version of this script compatible with Exchange? Many Thanks Hi There Adam,

Great scripts - making things much easier for a lot of people!

Just a quick question from me, is there any idea if/when there will be an updated version of this script compatible with Exchange?

Many Thanks

This is certainly a useful script. Any ideas on how to get it working with IMAP? I saw a link to a comment that indicated you could use an exchange rule to move everything to your INBOX, but it wasn't clear how that would help. Actually, there's another problem for those Cyrus users, apparently you can't create either a sub-folder of INBOX, nor can you give a sub-folder elsewhere a name beginning with '@'. Any suggestions? Cheers, - SteveN G’Day Adam,

The tickler scripts work wonderfully. I appreciate very much the time you spent helping me through my installation and your quick responses. The other scripts (Calendar Scripts, Quick Delete, Quick Project) are great. Thanks and best to you, -Roy Adam,

The "Run Tickler" script is responsible for returning your "tickled" email to the Inbox, once it comes due. You need to tell the Entourage Scheduler to run this script "On Startup". But this is not a script that you would execute directly. In order to defer a message, run one of the "Tickler Scripts" (e.g., "Tickle 1 Day", "Tickle 3 Days", "Tickle 7 Days", etc). These scripts will create the "Tickler" category and the "@Tickler" mail folder for you (if they do not already exist). Best, -Adam Roy - good question!

I installed the scripts and the Tickler Engine (called "Run Tickler" once it unzips) but recieve the message: Microsoft Entourage got an error: Can't get category "Tickler" when opening Entourage. There is no @tickler folder and consequently messages are not deferred - or I have no way of knowing if they deferred sucessfully. Thanks for any help. -Roy Hello Adam,

I had set up the 43 folders, but it was a hassle to remember to dump things out of my folder each day into my inbox, then move that folder to the next month, etc. I've tickled something to tomorrow, so I look forward to seeing how this works. I also like having all of the tickled items in one folder instead of 43, so if I'm looking for a message and can't remember how far out I tickled it, it will be in one folder, and I won't need to go hunting in several others.
