Alexander, on deeper research - there is something about this in the
help file - that should should have been %ABTOFIRSTNAME (not
%ABTOFNAME). And it does work... as long as the person I am replying
to is in the address book and happens to have a name prefix as well.
On the other hand, the %ABOFROMFIRSTNAME and %ABFROMFIRSTNAME macros
do not seem to work under any condition. ANd, of course, if the person
is not in the address book, then I get an nothing at all.

I should have mentioned in my last reply, that even if there is some
parital workaround here, I still consider this to be a defect in the
macro. The %TOFNAME and all of  the other FNAME macros are supposed to
pick up the first name. It is only reasonable to assume that the macro
will ignore standard name prefixes and even non-standard name prefixes
that have been specified as such in the address book. This does not
happen. The macro mistakenly treats the name prefix as the first name.
As such, the macro does not function correctly or as expected.
