Subject line in a mail is a key for identifying and digging the required mails from the mail archives. So we have to be careful not to miss it at any chance but unfortunately we do miss by accident. Another possible mistake we do is to miss the attachments mentioned in the mail.

A script is added to our outlook client which automatically pops up the alert as shown below.

The following script can be embedded in Outlook so that we get an alert whenever we miss the subject or the attachments

Code

Private Sub Application_ItemSend(ByVal Item As Object, cancel As Boolean)
 
Dim strSubject As String
strSubject = Item.Subject
If Len(Trim(strSubject)) = 0 Then
    Prompt$ = "Subject is Empty. Are you sure you want to send the Mail?"
    If MsgBox(Prompt$, vbYesNo + vbQuestion + vbMsgBoxSetForeground, "Subject is Empty") = vbNo Then
            cancel = True
    End If
End If
 
Dim lngres As Long
If (InStr(1, UCase(Item.Body), "ATTACH") <> 0 Or InStr(1, UCase(Item.Body), "PFA") <> 0) Then
    If Item.Attachments.Count = 0 Then
        lngres = MsgBox("Attachment reference detected, but no files attached. Send anyway?", _
        vbYesNo + vbDefaultButton2 + vbQuestion, "No files Attached")
 
        If lngres = vbNo Then cancel = True
    End If
End If
 
End Sub

Get snapshots of the internet pages you cannot access to, by just sending an email. If you don’t have access to internet but can use your corporate email; these service serves its best. This might also be helpful for those who want to take a peek at the sites blocked by their network admins.

Send the ‘URL’ of the requested page in the subject and mail to ‘browse@webmail.com’. This service sends the requested webpage offline through email,not just that, it can even send us the google search results page for the search queried for. It also sends you the results of the google image searches as well. Just change the subject of the mail from ‘url’ to ‘google:query’, ‘googleimg:query’ & ‘rediff:query’ and send it to ‘browse@webinmail.com’

This is a simpler version of the previous mentioned service. Send a mail to ‘www@web2mail.com’ with subject as requested url.
