Hello Victor,

On Thursday, December 26, 2002 at 07:10 GMT -0500, legend has it that
Victor B. Gonzalez recited the incantation:

MDP>> Yes - change your reply template. Just add this line to any reply
MDP>> template you need to give this ability to:
<snip>
MDP>> %from='"%OTONAME" <%OTOADDR>'%-
<snip>
> I've learned two things today. What I asked for and a bonus
> of "%OTONAME" thanks to you Marck.

There is one potential problem with the template as written.  If you
use this template when replying to a message where you are not the
first recipient listed, your reply might look like it came from
someone else.

This is easy to fix with a bit of regular expression trickery, though
the exact solution could depend on how your mail servers are setup.
Probably the easiest is something like:

%From='"Victor B. Gonzalez" <%-
%SetPattRegExp="(?i)(%-
[EMAIL PROTECTED]|[EMAIL PROTECTED]%-
)"%RegExpMatch="%OToList %OCcList">'

I've just formatted the above so it is a bit easier to read and edit
your addresses.  You can choose from as many addresses you want, just
add them before the %- at the end of the line.  Remember to separate
each address with a pipe symbol (|).

Note that for now I hard coded your name into the macro above.  For
the more general case, finding your name in the original message isn't
trivial since there could be unknown variations.

If you've ever noticed, the average traffic cone queue stretches for
miles, and the poor things often wait for hours without progressing 
anywhere. Traffic cones have rights, just like people.
