Hi Ottar,

On 05 January 2002 at 13:09:15 [GMT+0100] (which was 12:09 where I
live) Ottar Grimstad wrote to Roelof Otten and made these points:

Quite right!

Better yet, I have a "Lists" AB group with generic templates and some
very useful macros to ensure that addressing and presentation is how
it should be. A couple of the lists (esp. the TB lists where I am a
moderator) have custom templates to change my signature. Other lists
don't quite manage to set Reply-To, so these *do* need folder
templates :-(((.

Anyway, here's what I use, in case anyone's interested:

,----- [ Lists Group reply template ]
| %QINCLUDE="TMIntro"%CURSOR%-
| %QUOTESTYLE="none"%-
| %QINCLUDE="Req"%-
| %QINCLUDE="LISTTO"
| --
| %QINCLUDE="soft"
`-----

"TMINTRO" is the old "... where I live .. " macro with a twist - it
has added intelligence not to say that when replying to someone from
my own timezone.

"Req" is the RegEx Quoter which strips PGP sigs and adverts.

"LISTTO" is the name forming macro

,----- [ LISTTO ]
| %TO=""%TO='"%OFROMNAME on %ABoreplyHANDLE=''%ABoreplyNAME''" <%OREPLYADDR>'
`-----

Where a list has too long a name, I put an abbreviation in the AB
Handle field.
