Also, the same thing happens using a folder template (new kg> messages lose the template, but replies do not.) Have you only set up templates for new messages and not for replies on address book / folder level? Because that would explain it. If you don't have an address book reply template the account template will be used. kg> Any way around this behavior?

Is there a way to kg> include the account default template specifically? Use Quicktemplates (Options->Quick Tempaltes). you can include them in templates via the %Qinclude macro. You could for example copy the account templates into quick templates and the include them in both account and address book templates. This way when you change anything in the quick template, it's also changed in all the other templates. -- Cheers, Andre "If it's raining, a cute thing to tell a child is 'God is crying.'
