Plugins for OE

Is there a resource for plugins for Outlook Express?
(I already use the wonderful OE-QuoteFix)

What I am looking for specifically is a better Rules/Filter mechanism
(especially for the Usenet side). It would be nice if I could specify
what header field to look in. For example, I would create a rule to
mark as read & delete" all posts with
NNTP-Posting-Host: *given Ip* or
X-Original-NNTP-Posting-Host: *same Ip*


If there isn't a "resouce for plugins", is there at least a way to
create a Filter rule like I want (even if it requires hacking the
registry)?

I'm not aware of any plug-in to do that.

There's no way in the available OE filtering to do that.

You can write your own program, if you can understand the limited info at
this site:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...e/oe_entry.asp

But, other than that, unless Google can find someone who has already done
so, you're pretty much on your own.

Won't work at the moment. He wants a usenet filter, and the OE NG messages
are not accessible from the MSDN API documentation.

Hmm. 90% (99%?) of them say either "depreciated" or "not implemented
yet".

:-(

The latter is because I haven't written it yet. <G>

At which time they would be "appreciated"? <EG>

Good one. <G>

Steve,

Since you seem to be the main "writer of plugins", what is your thoughts
on a plugin which would allow a person to specify the header field to
look at (rather than using a preset list of headers)?
