I have the following problem: - I have a mails that are arriving in my mailbox - these mails contain a specific string in the body - what I want to do is: --> removing this string from the body --> then send this body to another mail adres (send, not forward)

What have I already done:

A. created a rule that activates the script in incoming messages that contain a certain string in the description

This is the rule description:

Apply to message with "Maileater" in the subject and on this computer only run "Project1.ChangeString"

B. created the script with the following instructions:

Public Sub ChangeString(MyMail As MailItem)

 Dim body As String
 body = MyMail.body

 body = Replace (body, "=====================================================", " ")
 MyMail.body = body

 MyMail.Save

End Sub

C. now I want to add in the script the instruction to send the body (or MyMail.body) to a specific mail adres (e.g. [email protected] with description "Support asked") after the replace of the string.

is this possible?

Can someone help me with this, I would be very greatfull because this will eliminate me from a lot of manual work.

remark: this is just an exemple of a mail, the real thing will contain other replacements and mails to send
