Creating Message List Fields

Use a message list field to store aliases to Mac OS X Mail messages, notes, and RSS articles that are relevant to a specific record. For example, you can keep a log of correspondence linked to a project or event.

Note  Because the message list field stores aliases to messages, when you delete a message from Mac OS X Mail, it is also deleted from the message list field.

To create a message list field:

1	Choose Insert > New Field or press Control-N.

2	Choose Message List.

3	Name the field.

4	Click Create.

The new field is added to the Fields pane and the current form.

Note  You can see message list fields in form view but not in table view.

5	Add Mac OS X Mail items (messages, notes, and RSS articles) to the field.

See ”Adding Mac OS X Mail Items to a Message List Field” on page 98.
