I have one mail list that is particularly problematic in this regard...if I want the usual reply mechanics to address my replies to the list. For that particular list, there is no "Reply to: <list address>" header in the messages that come in through the list's server. If I have no special TB! reply template that removes the *original sender's* address, and replaces it with the list's address, any reply will be addressed only to the original sender (unless I use "reply to all"...but then I have to remove the original sender's address manually from the "To" field). I've set up an Address Book reply template that takes care of the basic *reply to the list only* issue. However...if I want to reply only to the original sender, I cannot right-click on the sender's address in the header bar, and choose "reply to this address", because the list's address will still replace it. So...I've created a Quick Template that works for replies to only the original sender: %TO="" %TO="%OFROMADDR" I highlight the text I want to quote and hit F4 (at this point, the list's address is the only one in the "To" field), then I invoke the QT, and the list address in the "To" field is replaced by the address of the original sender. This method still requires that I remember to invoke the QT after the "F4" operation, but so far, that hasn't been a problem for me. I'm wondering though...is there any way I can assign a HotKey combination to invoke this QT *and* the "F4" reply function in a single operation? Another question: I also have a "new message" *folder template* for the list which automatically adds the *list address* to a new message when I hit F5 while I'm in that list's Inbox folder. Here again though, I run into the problem that I can't right-click on the original sender's address in the header bar of a particular message and choose "write a message to this address"...because the list address ends up in the "To" field again. I've been trying to figure out if I can create a QT to replace the "write a message to this address" function, but I'm having trouble with this one. Any ideas? The same secondary question applies here as well...can I create a HotKey combination that will invoke both this hypothetical QT and the F5 "new message" function in a single operation?
