Yes, that's possible. Check out Folder / Properties / Template. You can add "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" to that template and it will do exactly what you require. I love folder templates. Every time you are in the TBUDL folder and create a message, it will be sent to TBUDL. Sometimes you are unaware of which folder you are in, so the message that you wanted to send your your brother or your lover will reach the list. You say it won't happen to you, but believe me, we have had a lot of fun with this. Unfortunately, people have now wisened up and don't use folder templates any more. AB templates are much safer. I create a new message, type TBU in the TO field, and the address will be autocompleted to TBUDL. That's why I have not (yet?) sent any private communication to this list. ;-) -- Cheers, Thomas.
