Hi all

In the 'handlemail' method that is called for incoming mails, I have roughly the following code::

apply( mail_folder.manage_addProduct['ZMailIn'].manage_addZMailMessage , new_mail_args , {} )

zmail.manage_addProperty('status', 'unassigned', 'lines')

ZMailIn subclasses CatalogAware, so the new instance gets cataloged. However, the 'status' property that I add after creation does *not* get cataloged. (It does get cataloged when I manually update the catalog.)

In order to get the 'status' property cataloged, I added the following two lines::

ZMailInCatalog.uncatalog_object('/' + zmail.absolute_url(1)) ZMailInCatalog.catalog_object(zmail, '/' + zmail.absolute_url(1))

If this puppy is CatalogAware, you don't need to use this code. You can do this much more efficiently by using: zmail.index_object() Use this instead of "reindex_object" it is much more efficient and only updates the indexes for the attributes that were changed. hth, /---------------------------------------------------\ Casey Duncan, Sr. Web Developer National Legal Aid and Defender Association c.duncan@nlada.org \---------------------------------------------------/
