For example:

him.

Is there a solution for it?

Maybe use an attribute for that?

Like

Attributes = Author, ..., stagaire
Options stagaire = Jim, Joe, ...

So Rob can select a stagaire from the list, and the email contains this name.

- Stefan

I can export the Attributes I define easily and the Subject. Can't seem to 
export the Entry Date and the Text fields.

Help.

The XML export contains both the Entry Date and Text fields. In CSV format,
it's hard to export the Text field since it can span several lines, which would
break the CSV format (one line per entry). Or do you know how multi-line
entries can be encoded in CSV?

I added at least the date and message ID to the CSV export. New version under CVS.

Is there any way to automatically export the logbook(s)?

Kind of. You can use "wget" under Linux (use cygwin under Windows to get wget
under Windows). Then issue a

wget "http://midas.psi.ch/elogs/forum/?cmd=Search&mode=xml"

and you will get an XML export. Same works with CSV export. If you put that
command in cron, you have this on an automatic basis.
