Hello-- Does anyone know a way of removing prepended text like [EXTERNAL] from the subject line? Are there macros in Thunderbird that can do this?

Thank you in advance.

I'm not aware of an automated method, but the Subject can be edited manually:

Thank you sfhowes for that quick response. But I need something that will automatically do this for all emails that come in.

Something like an Outlook Macro.
