Hi Marck,
Historians believe that Tue, 3 Jul 2001 at 11:14 GMT +0100 was when,
Marck D Pearlstone [MP] typed the following:
<snip>
MP> I have a pet hate in TB. That pet hate is named "Folder Templates".
The only thing I would add is that folder level templates are
dangerous when people use the %TO, %CC or %BCC macros. But I think you
alluded to that point.
MP> In 150 folders I have two and only two that have folder templates.
MP> They are for two specific lists which don't set the reply address
MP> properly.
Could you eliminate even those two folder level templates with some
creative filtering and batch files?
What I was thinking is: Create a new address book with two groups
(one for each list). You can customize the group templates as you see
fit. Now exit TB and copy this blank AB to a safe location.
Now have your filters automatically add the sender to the appropriate
group. Of course this means that your address book is going to fill
up rather quickly. To compensate, every couple of days, you can
overwrite the full AB with the blank backup. With a two line script
and Windows Task Scheduler, it should be a fairly easy task.
It seems to me, this would be just as effective as folder level
templates, and slightly safer too.
Just a thought.
