Clarification Please ?? 

I am trying to strip down the reply items in the user file ...

IF instead of using DefaultReply I use AddToReplyIfNotExist, will this
mean that the reply attributes individually are checked against the
users file ??
eg:
If say I have one of the AddToReplyIfNotExist items as Idle-Timeout =
900, but in the users there is a Idle-Timeout = 0 the user file
attribute will override ?

I am trying to have in the users file ONLY those reply attributes which
are different from the defaults, rather than have to put ALL the reply
attributes if any  are different from the default.
