Script needed for replying to email address in body of receiving email

Diane,

I did the thinking positive thing....... and guess what it worked.

I can't tell you how much I am impressed with your help in spoon-feeding me through creating and implementing these scripts.

Back in July 2013, I explained what I was trying too do - to 1/2 a dozen computer guru mates ( 2 of them being IT techs for a living ) and couldn't get any joy.

Basically - no one even knew where to start.

So I trolled the net, and came across your forum.

With your scripting and guidance my online site now has fully automated email responses.

I appreciate you greatly for putting up with my novice experience level and your untiring patience with me.

Diane, - Thank You, I couldn't have done it without you.
 
You're welcome. :) And never forget the power of positive thinking.
 
Ok - I was so excited, I couldn't sleep last night ( by the way, I'm in Australia )

I have an idea - tell me if it's possible.

Is it possible to write a script - that will reply to an email automatically, 7 days after it arrives? ( so on a timer so too speak )

My current weekly sales is around 100 people ( So I end up with 100 emails in an outlook folder )

The email address is in the body of the email ( as before - so that is sorted )

The idea is that they purchase their goods, the payment email ends up in a separate outlook folder ( outlook rules handles that )

Then a week later or even lets say on a Thursday at 11am I would like to send a bcc email to everyone in that folder.

(It would be a sort of - Thank you for making your purchase - buy more from me - click here to love me on social media etc etc )

Maybe the day and time once a week would be an easier option ??

Once again the idea is to automate it, because by the time I get to next week - I too busy dealing with this weeks business.

Currently I have been cutting and pasting the emails out manually into a thank you / marketing email - but it is very time consuming.

Another option might be some sort of tool to get the email address's out of the email body into an excel sheet.

What's your thoughts ?

There might be an addin that does that... but yes, you can do it. The only hard part is the timer. Outlook doesn't include a timer. One possible way around it is using an appointment reminder to trigger it. Windows Task Scheduler might also work, although it's sometimes more difficult with some of the security updates.

(I thought Sperry software had an addin that did this but if they do, I can't find it. They have one that sets reminders for follow up, it's possible i was thinking of it.)
 
Great - Sounds easy....... From inside VB I cant find a 'save as" option.

And I'm not sure where the script file is kept.

If I could find it... I'm capable of editing and renaming.

I'm sorry to sound so dumb.....
[DOUBLEPOST=1425685504][/DOUBLEPOST]I have a question regarding this script.

First of all, it is exactly what I have been looking for and this has helped out a great deal.

Now my question,

I have Outlook 2013 setup with my personal email and also an email for a car show which I help run. The script is working great, but the auto reply is coming from my personal email account and not the car show one.

What would I need to do to be able to change this so that it auto replies from the car show email and not my personal one. As a temporary fix I have added a signature on my email to show I am the webmaster of the car show.
The script is setup exactly as per the example you gave in post #5

Any help would be gratefully appreciated. Thank you.
 
Do you have two separate accounts or do the addresses share one mailbox on the server?
 
They are separate accounts. One is via gmail the other is my personal from my internet service provider.
