In creating emails, I bounce from one construction project to another construction project to another. We have a standard in our company that each email will start out with the name of the Construction Project in the Subject Line so that it is easy for everyone to immediately know which Project you are talking about... as well as be able to sort the Projects in your In-Box... as well as create Rules that move the email to a specific folder for that In-Box.

How great it would be... if you could have a pull down menu for the Subject Line... perhaps there would be ten slots in this pull down menu... and you could choose what is in each slot. For instance, if I were working the next few months on the "Job 6822 - Smith House", Job 6833- Jones House, Job 6844 - Howard House, Job 6855 - Evans House... when I click on the Subject Line Pull Down... I could have these names automatically pop up. Then if I picked "Job 6844 - Howard House", I could then append the rest of the line after the word "Job 6844 -Howard House" was populated... so I might then add the words "Foundation Design Criteria"... so it would then be sent as an email with the subject line: "Job 6844 - Howard House - Foundation Design Criteria.

This would save a bunch of typing, keep me from having to look up what job number applies to what Project... but more importantly it would get everyone in my company using the same title repeatedly... so that you don't have different people using different references... and then the ability to sort these in your in-Box getting all messed up because people are using different twists such as:

6844 - Howard
Howard - 6844
Project 6844
Howard House Project - 6844
6844 Project - Howard House
