Lionrhod,

Just started using the Bat myself and I think the templates are killers.
Anyone think I've got this wrong please correct me:

Firstly each email account has the default templates:
Right-click account, Properties and then Templates should enable you to
affect the default templates for that account, Template and Reply, etc.

Each folder under this can also have it's own templates, so if you
right-click Mom's account and select Template and Reply, you can dump the
standard stuff and change it to "Hi Mom", etc. If you click on Mom's folder
and create a message it will use Mom's template, etc.

If you want blank templates, clear all the templates for that account, or
all accounts.

The confusion lies in been able to alter all sorts, etc.

It's also possible, and this confused me, to give someone, like Mom, a
template in the address book, so when you write to Mom it replaces any
template currently been used to that of the one in the address book. this
might be the way you want to go firstly. Then you'll just need to alter
Mom's folder for the reply template.

Because several accounts, and folders can have templates it can be confusing
as one over rides the over, however only the address book suddenly confusing
things.

I set up a folder to filter this email list and I set up a simply template
and reply template for it, so this overrides the accounts default template
:)

I think templates work: Account template, folder template and finally
address book template. Address book is also a switch on/off feature. I also
think by default a folders templates are Bat's own defaults and not that of
the account, however could be wrong.

Hope this helps, as the template feature is great IMO, as a new user that I
am.

Word wrap in an option under "Utilities" - "Auto Wrap". I think it remembers
for next time.
