Edit as New broken
Hi When I choose "Edit as New", the original text is all included and the header is proper, but the text in the message is all included as "quoted text" as if I choose Reply, not "Edit as New." Ira 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
5.0.12.16 Edit as New adds a template
5.0.12.16 Edit as New adds a template - it is much like a forwarded message. This doesn't strike me as correct behavior. I would think it would be JUST the message to be edited Confirmations or corrections anyone? -- Rick I'm having another It seemed like a good idea at the time moment v5.0.12.16 (BETA) on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 3 Current beta is 5.0.12.16 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Comments to Edit as new function
Hello, I am waiting for it many years, great addition finally. From my POV, there must be at least two improvements: 1) first of all, sender must be not be preserved, when I edit message from TBBETA as new, original sender is preserved, there is no logic for this, such mail will not be sent through my mailserver 2) when I want to edit original message as new, rescipient field should be empty, who wants to send new message to same rescipient with same text? -- Thanks and Bye, Marek Mikus Czech support of The Bat! http://www.thebat.cz Using the best The Bat! 5.0.12.14 (BETA) under Windows 7 6.1 Build 7601 Service Pack 1 with MyMacros,XMP,AnotherMacros, AntispamSniper v 3.2.6.4 Notebook Thinkpad, Core2 Duo 2.4 GHz, 4 GB RAM Current beta is 5.0.12.16 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

It isn't always easy to remember all of the magic features of different folders in TB! and I figured that, since the existing right-click menu on an email message already has at LEAST 50 (yes, I counted them) choices, who would be bothered by just one more that would provide a feature that other email programs provide? Of course, if there's a TB! macro programming language that would allow me to create a macro that does this *AND* add the macro to the right-click menu, then I'm golden -- as long as the macro doesn't get lost on a version upgrade. -- Steven Vallière | tb 4.2.13.4 ALPHA | mailto:the...@e-visions.com -- If you didn't write it down, then it didn't happen. -Larry Zana Current beta is 4.2.13.3 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Edit as New?
Didn't previous a version (or versions) of TB have a menu option for messages to Edit as new? I may be thinking of some other email program, but the only other one I use is Thunderbird, and it doesn't have that option (and I don't think it ever did). It is not uncommon for me to want to re-send an old message, sometimes to the same people, sometime to new people, and sometimes with additional or updated information. While it is /possible/ to do this in TB by cutting the old message and pasting it into a new one, that loses the old addressee lists, which are tedious enough to enter now that the address drop-menu is gone from the To:, CC: and BCC: fields in the Edit Mail Message window. If I can manually get Edit as New back on the menu and/or get the drop-lists back in the address fields, could someone /please/ tell me how?
