Outlook 2003: trim leading spaces from email subject with vba macro

Hello,

some email clients send emails with an extra leading space added to the subject.

As a result message sorting on subject in outlook 2003 does not work correctly: these messages
are considered to have a different subject and so the entire conversation is split in two seperate conversations, which is very annoying.

I already wrote a little VBA macro to trim the leading space of the subjects of emails in a folder. This works insofar that the display of the subject is indeed modified. However, this does not fix the split conversations.

Maybe this is because the conversation index or somesuch is not updated?

I don't know enough of outlook to fix this myself.

Has anybody here any other ideas to fix these problems?

Thanks,
Erik
