Create Rules Based on Entourage Messages
When creating rules in Entourage 2008, you can save some time by selecting a message like those you want the rule to work on before defining the rule. That way, when you add criteria to your rule, Entourage fills in the data based on the data in the selected message. So if you wanted to filter messages containing TidBITS, you could select an issue and add a new "From Contains" criterion to a rule. Entourage will automatically fill in the editors@tidbits.com address in the criterion.

| DealBITS Drawing: Sunatori.com Pen
And now for something completely different! Long-time TidBITS reader Simon Sunatori recently contacted us about doing a DealBITS drawing for a new pen he'd invented and patented, and while it wasn't Mac-related (other than coming in colors reminiscent of the original iPod mini), I was sufficiently intrigued to check it out. I have to admit, it's neat, in a geeky sort of way. The pen hangs from a pendant you wear around your neck, and the unusual part is that the pen and pendant contain relatively strong magnets. When attached, the magnets retract the pen tip; when detached, the pen tip drops down instantly and is ready for writing. The silver pendant contains a simple digital clock and is sufficiently polished on the other side to act as a mirror, helpful if you should ever need to focus the sun's rays to burn yourself out of captivity. Tristan and I do our family's weekly grocery shopping at the local GreenStar Cooperative Market, where we have to write down a variety of bulk product and produce codes to read to the cashier, and Simon's pen is by far the most convenient writing implement I've found for that task. No caps to lose, no buttons to click, no strings to tangle - it just works.
In this week's DealBITS drawing, you can enter to win one of two Sunatori.com Pens, worth $20, in your choice of colors. Entrants who aren't our lucky winner will receive a significant discount, so if you're always losing your pens or having them leak in your pockets, be sure to enter at the DealBITS page linked below. All information gathered is covered by our comprehensive privacy policy. Be careful with your spam filters, since you must be able to receive email from my address to learn if you've won. Remember too, that if someone you refer to this drawing wins, you'll receive the same prize to reward you for spreading the word.
