-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Luigi,
@27 June 2002, 07:04:39 +0200 (06:04 UK time) Luigi Rosa in mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] said to Maurice Snellen: MS>> Does anyone have a killer solution to handle mailinglists which don't MS>> use the Reply-To: header to direct replies back to the list? > You filter the messages to a single folder, then in the Reply template of > that folder you put this: > %TO=""%TO="List Name <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>" This advice cannot be given without issuing the standard health warning! ;-) <stock lecture> I have a pet hate in TB. That pet hate is named "Folder Templates". In 150 folders I have two and only two that have folder templates. They are for two specific lists which don't set the reply address properly. There is nothing else for which folder templates can be used that can't be covered and even improved upon using Address Book templates. There are "dangers" in using Folder Templates that are not there when you use AB templates. The dangers are all complacency based and are at their worst in templates which use the "%TO=" macro. If, at the instant you start a new message you happen to be focused on the wrong folder, the message gets given the wrong address. This happens when you click a mailto without changing folders. The results vary from embarrassing to excruciating depending upon the content of the misdirected mail. BTW - another mistake in such templates is to use the construct %TO="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" without a "%TO=''" before it. So any pre-existing addresses are retained. </stock lecture> Having said all that, folder templates are the only answer. Make sure that you only define folder reply templates though and use the address book templates for new messages. - -- Cheers -- .\\arck D.
