But it will. Each favorite has it's own template set. The other
favorite you selected most likely has it's own specific templates
active.

If you understand what's happening, then it won't be so frustrating.
You seem to have created templates for a number of your address book
recipients and there's a tug-of-war going on when you create messages
to these recipients via folders rather than the address book. If you
wish to discuss it some more privately, I'm willing to go at it with
you. :)

Folder templates will work with any message which resides in that
folder or any message created with that folder in focus. Address book
templates may be made specific to each *entry* in the address book or
specific to each designated address groups. Hardly a redundant setup
but instead provides increased flexibility. The possibilities are
pretty amazing. :)
