Hi Katsmeow,
On 13 July 2000 at 14:48:38 GMT -0500 (which was 20:48 where I
live) [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote and made these points on the subject
of "More newbie Questions":

It will wrap automatically during if you have auto-format and
auto-wrap both enabled for the editor. Otherwise you can insert
returns into the quick template at will. Also you can prepare the text
in a dummy message, cut it and finally paste it into the new Quick
template.
Following use of an unformatted Quick Template in a message, a simple
Alt-L (or Alt-J) keystroke will reflow the text.
K> 2. If I want only unread messages displayed, do I have to manually

K> Display or can I set a default for only unread messages to show?
This is a new Universe. The Bat has the ticker. The ticker contains
all unread messages (from all folders that may be selected to
contribute their new mail content to the ticker - see folder options).
When you open new mail from the ticker, you are presented with a
single "virtual" folder containing *only* the new mail. There is an
interesting keyword in here regarding "from all folders" ISFA messages
can be pre-filtered and still gathered to one place for mass-viewing.
I find this facility far more versatile than any other scheme by far.
Of course, that's just my opinion and others may well disagree.
