LOL!!!  Disregard Udo.  I thought I was on the Claws-Mail list.  I'm such a 
dork!  Hahopefully I didn't confuse you there.

Very simple. Claws mail is a plain text only client. If you want to compose in 
html (i.e., using bold, italics, underline, etc.) then you'll need another 
e-mail client (Evolution, Thunderbird, Outlook, and so on.)

There's a growing trend to get back to "old school"...which is the new school, 
and rightly so. Plain text is simpler to read and produces smaller e-mails. If 
I need to emphasize a word or phrase, then I'll just bracket it in asterisks, 
*like so*.

With the advent and popularity of markdown, I wouldn't be surprised to see the 
adaptation of markdown interpreters to show some formatting, while retaining 
simple plain text. Even without that functionality, you'll find the markdown 
format guidelines can actually help you produce better text email.

Sorry I didn't follow up sooner Martin. Glad you got it working. As far as 
editing, make sure you go into Zim preferences and tell it what your default 
text editor is.

Edit --> Preferences --> Applications (Tab)

I'll take a stab Udo...though I'm just a user like yourself. My primary 
question based on the information you've provided: have you mapped the network 
drive to a letter (i.e. W: or Z:)?

Many programs I use to access a network storage device won't recognize it until 
its mapped properly in Windows.

Hey again Martin. Did you try the style.conf in ~/.config/zim ?

Hey Martin...I believe you can edit the default template

Menu Bar --> Edit --> Templates

Scroll down to wiki --> default  ... click 'Edit'

You'll see the following:

>=== [% page.basename %] ===
> Created [% strftime("%A %d %B %Y") %]

Just delete or modify the 'Created...' line. I'd probably make a copy
of it first, just to have a backup. You can do that in the same menu.
