Here's the copied filter:

I've deleted and redone the filter a couple of times too. It's
currently at the bottom of a list of incoming filters, but I've
moved it up with no difference. Any help greatly appreciated!

RA The # is a delimiter, everything between the first and second instances of
RA # are what happens if the from address is [EMAIL PROTECTED]

RA The %- is a line continuation marker that has the effect of preventing a
RA newline appearing in the output of the template.

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. :-)

dh Because of that I would suggest that you extend your existing general
dh forward template by checking for the recipient where you want this to
dh be applied and do it then:

dh %IF:'%TOADDR'='[EMAIL PROTECTED]':#%-
dh %ModifyOnce(Subject)%-
dh %Subject=FWD: %OSubj (From Bill Smith)#%-

dh %ModifyOnce(Subject) will ensure, that the Subject is only changed
dh once by the QT (not again, when you edit the header fields, without
dh having changed the body before).

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.

Thanks very much!

MW I should have added that you can add this to your address book template
MW for the recipient.

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!

Thanks Martin.
