O.P. * Received File Sorting *
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,

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 *
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.

Matty is working on a Recived files organiser, but it sorts by type of file, not the sender.

I think that would be a great idea, otherwise you could end up hin hundreds of folders and it could still be just as hard to find something.  I was thinking of also saying like put these emails (say email@hotmail.com, email2@hotmail.com) into a folder called 'Cheese'  or soemthing like that

* Dempsey thinks he mumbled on a bit and thats one of his longest posts :p

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

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. :(

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 :cheesy:) etc...
