How do you go about it when you start a new thread?

Do you: (1) 'reply' to an existing list message and change the subject line;
(2) open the address book, control-click the list address and choose 'new
message to' from the contextual menu; (3) run a script to open an
appropriately addressed new message, or (4) use some other cunning method I
haven't mentioned.

I usually go for option (1), but I'm not proud of it. There's something
about having to replace an irrelevant subject line that leaves a faintly,
bitter aftertaste, and I'd far rather start with a blank slate. Sometimes I
plump for option (2), but the 'new message to' item is hidden away so far
down the contextual menu that I've often forgotten why I wanted to send a
message by the time I get there.

As for option 3, it might be handy to have a folder of scripts that open new
messages to lists in the scripts menu, and if anybody has some sample code
for making new pre-addressed messages I'd be interested to see it.

Another option I'd like to have available is stationery/template documents
that I can open direct from the Finder - but those double-clickable email
address documents don't seem capable of holding 'name' info for addresses,
which makes them unsatisfactory. Again, I suppose scripts could do the job.

But how do _you_ do it. Please tell.
