* Received File Sorting * by XM4ST3RX on 02-10-2005 at 02:38 PM
Hi,
Patchou, just a small request for 3.50 if you could.
I think ALOT of people would benefit from this feature as it will save alot of time and will tidy up Messenger.
dempseyint....@hotmail.com\ << directory within recieved files
and all files recieved from him, would go directly into his folder.
Dempsey was going to make a plugin to do this, but also thought it would be better being integrated into Messenger Plus!
Kind Regards,
XM4ST3RX

Its a pretty good idea, but I'm not sure if dempsey is still actually doing it, because I think Matty is making something the same, It would be a good thing to add to plus!...
also you could have stuff received by groups if you use groups?
RE: * Received File Sorting * by Dempsey on 02-10-2005 at 02:48 PM
I definatley think this would be a great feature as i currently have over 500 files in my recived files and i don't have a clue who half of them are fro anymore, also when i go to find something from someone it would be so much easier if I could just go into a folder with there email address and it have to look through the files they sent.
I started making this but as i got more into it it became a lot more complicated than i first thought it would be.
As i was making it in VB it was a lot more complicated than it needed to be as i'm sure if it was coded in c++ then Messenger could be hooked or something so that the file transfers could be monitored and then the files moved.
EDIT

* Dempsey thinks he mumbled on a bit and thats one of his longest posts
RE: * Received File Sorting * by user27089 on 02-10-2005 at 02:49 PM
If anybody is willing to make this then go for it, it would be great for messenger plus!... but if it was made a plugin quicker then it would be great

As i say i started making it and i got the filename decoding working eventaully and the packet sniffing working, but the bit that was casuing me problems was detcting when a transfer started and finished and then matching up the packets to piece together the encoded filename.
If any VB programmers would like to have a look to see if they could help with it let me know

Yeh i think it would be a excellent idea! would save alot of time looking for a file so yeh ive voted yes
RE: * Received File Sorting * by _Humphreys on 02-10-2005 at 05:25 PM
Yes this is a great plug-in idea and I have been waiting for it being made for a while now. Last time I checked I heard that Matty was making this into a plug-in for msg plus but he might not be now.

Well I am glad he is still working on it. 
Thanks for pointing out my in-ability to read traxor.

He isn't making something that will sort out who sent you what, he's making something that sorts out, say... pictures, music, or file types *.jpg's *.exe's *.pif's (the latest msn virus thing
) etc...

Did this very useful feature ever come to light?
RE: * Received File Sorting * by matty on 04-16-2006 at 11:45 PM

msg discovery can sort recieved files into my music, my videos... but it wud be better if plus had it too
RE: * Received File Sorting * by ~*McoreD*~ on 04-21-2006 at 08:26 AM
I also think this can be a very great idea. If Plus! could archive the files in My Received Folder in a nice way so that we know where/when the files were received, then that would be a very useful feature.
