Try this:

%TO=""%-
%TO="a...@contesting.com"

First line clears the To field. Second line sets the address of the
mailing list.

%REPLYTO sets an alternative reply address of *your* e-mail, e. g.:

- you send an e-mail with %REPLYTO=""
- my reply to your mail will be sent to gniddlf...@blub.com

Cheers!

99%  of  mailing  lists I have no trouble with, mainly Yahoo ones, but
this list is a pain as I inadvertently reply via e-mail rather than to

welcome :)

H I appreciate the reply, and after some time, I have gone to the
H address book, right clicked on certain entries there and gone to
H properties, and ended up using the blank one you advised for new
H message and blank/text for reply.  That does just what I want.

Changing the templates in the address book for specific entries (or
groups) as you have done will work for those entries or groups.
However, it seemed to me from your initial message that you want *all*
replies to be blank, even if they are to new correspondents or other
recipients who are not in your address book (which you will see
abbreviated on this list as AB).  If that's your objective, then go
up to the menu bar, click Account/Properties/Templates.  Expand the
Templates category, and adjust as desired.  Those are your global
templates, which will apply to that account unless overridden by more
specific group or individual templates.  One way to address those
global templates is to leave just the %CURSOR expression in place, or
to leave that plus some short line, if you like, identifying the
person to whom you're replying or to the date on which his/her email
came in.

As for asking elementary questions, don't be inhibited about that.
Some simple things in TB! are hard to find.  And some very interesting
possibilities are almost impossible to figure out without a guide.
All in all, it's worth the effort, and such questions are the reason
this list is here.

Thanks, JN, I find as I become more familiar with the Bat, I am changing my mind
as to what I want and don't want!  This reply and Jan's earlier advice
was helpful to meI will experiment with the %CURSOR expression
today.

One thing I would like to set up, with two close friends I email a
lot, is to have a template where my reply begins above the heading
of the mail I am responding to, in other words, like in Outlook
Express where it automatically shows the below fields and your typing
begins *above* that.  Can anyone help?  Perhaps even the cursor
expression does this, I will find out!

Put the %CURSOR expression above the %QUOTES expression.

If you want all your replies like that, do it in your global 'reply'
template.  Otherwise, just do it in the templates for those
individuals in your AB (or for the group they're in).

I don't know Outlook express, but I believe you want to do something
that most people frown upon:

  Dear Blabla;

  (your message)

  Greeting.

  - Original Message -
  
  From:
  To:
  Subject:

  (total original message)

It is possible. I go step=-by-step, so it is easy to follow:

Without the header information, you can just use the following
template:

   %Cursor
   %Text

But that is not so good, as the original text will not be marked as
quoted (BIG disadvantage of Outlook). Better is this:

   %Cursor
   %Quotes

Now, you can put the full header info in there:

%Cursor

From:%OFrom
To:  %OTo
Subject: %OSubject

%Quotes

But there is really no need to follow Outlook's conventions any more.
You are now dealing with a powerful email-client that can do better -
much better. Use your creativity and don't get stuck in old ways,
because the old MUA couldn't do anything else. Try yourself out and
find that life is much more than the narrow path of Outlook. Dare do
something different, something new, something creative! :-)

And find out why it is even more practical too, to not just top-reply
and bottom-quote, but to use inline-quoting. You will see that people
on this list use mostly inline-quoting, because this way, threads are
easier to follow. Welcome to the world of fully-functional email.

Another Address Book over Folder Templates question

[Jonathan Angliss]

Hi,

This is a mailing list related template again.  I am a member of a
mailing list that requires both the list, and the original sender to
be included on the mail (either TO the sender, or CC the sender).  The
list doesn't set the Reply-To tag.

I setup an address book template for the mailing list for the reply to
include the original sender. When I reply to the email sent to the
list, it ignores the fact it came from that list, and uses the
standard account formating. Without adding everybody that emails that
list to my address book, is this one of those rare cases where folder
templates are needed over address book templates?
