It's currently at the bottom of a list of incoming filters, but I've moved it up with no difference.

Thanks for letting me know. This info opens up a whole new world of possibilities for macros, which have always been something of a mystery to me. :-) -- Pat A Canadian in Houston Using The Bat! v2.04.7 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 1 Current version is 2.04.7 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

I didn't explain it very well; anyway the recipient field won't work for me in this instance. So I made a folder template which isn't working. :-) The subject macro works, but I am not getting the text. I copied the template in my reply to shinE!, if you are interested. TB! makes us very lazy, I think. I now expect to do tasks that should reasonably take several key strokes, with no strokes at all. What a program!

Brilliant-- and I think I can use this to work for me! Because it isn't a special recipient in the sense you mean I only used the "modify subject" part of your macro. I created a folder for sender's messages, then did a folder "forward" template. I believe there are pitfalls with folder templates; here's what happened this time: When I click Forward when in this folder, the subject line and to: fields are correct, but the message field is blank. %Cursor%TO="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" %ModifyOnce(Subject)%- %Subject="FWD: (From Bill Smith) %OSubj"#%- This is a forwarded message. From: %OFromName <%OFromAddr> To: %OToList Date: %ODateEn, %OTimeLongEn Subject: %OSubj ===Original message text=== %Text End of original message text=== ...Any ideas? I'm intrigued by the "%IF" part of the macro. Must be a lot of possibilities there.
