Curtis thanks for your patient explanation but I must confess
I'm sitll un-clear about the %ISSIGNATURE macro. Let me put it this way:
Here is one of my account "new message" templates.
||----------| Begin Template |----------||
Hello %TOFNAME
%Cursor
--
Jan Reply to: %REPLYADDR
%ISSIGNATURE
||----------| End Template |----------||
Here is one of my Quick Templates

||----------| End Quick Template |----------||
Could you use these templates to illustrate how one
interacts with the other? I assume my new msg template would
come up when I write a new msg from my account [rather than a
folder] which might have it's own templates. If the above is
a correct understanding then where would I place my cursor to
insert the Quick Template example that I've provided. Thanks
for your continued patience in explaining this issue.
