Global replace text in post body

Hi

We want to globally change the name we use in signatures within posts (for privacy purposes). For example, I've been using "PaulM" and I'd like to change all instances to "Paul" instead.  I realise we should be using the auto-signature block feature in our profiles -- we've switched to this approach -- but is there a way to globally replace "PaulM" with "Paul" in the body of a post or reply?

Thanks in advance

Paul

    PAULEM, You can do it by creating a script, which will fetch each of messages by your user account. and replace the text in finding of the body using update message API.
