Thank you, Allie, for identifying my forwarding template problem.
Creating a default template cured the problem. May I now ask about my
reply templates. They work, or don't work, inconsistely, in ways that
I do not understand.
For example, what you see above -- apart from my manually deleting
extra text -- was produced when I pressed "reply." That is, there was
no opening salutation or reference to your post. After adding Allie to
my address book, pressing reply produced the following:
Dear Allie:

I have both a default reply template and address book folder
templates. Here is my default reply template:
Dear %OFROMFNAME:%-
On %ODateEn, %OTimeLongEn, %OFROMNAME wrote:
%Quotes
%Cursor
--
%Qinclude="is"
%FROM="David A. Guberman <EMAIL PROTECTED>"
%REPLYTO="EMAIL PROTECTED"
As noted above, before I put Allie's address in an address book
folder, using it to reply to reproduced Allie's post, but not the
opening apparatus. After the address book addition, I got the opening
salutation. (Notice, by the way, the absence of a blank line between
the "Dear Allie" and the day-time identificiation line.) Here is my
"personal" address book folder reply template ("personal" is an
address folder within the default-named "Personal address book"):

I hope this provides someone with enough information. Many thanks.
