However, in Help/Help Topics/Index/Find I typed in the word "history" and found two topics to display. Both looked somewhat relevant. I'm quoting this one: ===================================================================== Message header By default, Outgoing mail headers consist of six fields: From, Reply-To, To, CC, BCC, Subject and Follow up. All of these fields can be directly edited. To move the cursor from field to field, press the Tab key, use Up/Down arrows or click in the desired field with the mouse. Most header fields have a drop-down history list, which can be used for auto-complete and also can be activated by the <Alt+Down> keystroke. The history lists can be edited when on screen using the <Del> key to remove unwanted entries and the <Space> key to "Park" entries in the list. Addressee fields (To, CC and BCC) have quick buttons to invoke the address selection dialog. You can also use the <Shift+Enter> keystroke for this. Another feature is the quick address pop-up menu which can be invoked either by pressing <Alt+Enter> or by using a right mouse click - the context menu contains addresses from the address book which have the "Add to pop-up menu" option set. When you type an address, you can press <Ctrl+Plus> to let The Bat! find an addressee with the name or address beginning with whatever you have typed, pressing <Ctrl+Plus> again takes you to the next addressee with a matching name or address. ======================================================================== Further, one way to see these options is to right-click one's mouse. Off-Topic question: Just curious, why are you using Mozilla Thunderbird to ask a question about The Bat! (apparently) on a TB! mailing list? On-Topic request: To help me out a bit, could you please include a signature de-limiter with your messages (like mine below <dash-dash-space-enter> ). You can read about it in the Welcome message you got when you subscribed to this list, or, also, in the Monthly Mission Statement sent automatically by the software of the List Moderators. I'm not trying to be a moderator, here. I just don't enjoy dealing with the "footers" which get quoted by The Bat!'s Reply function, when people don't type in a proper "cut-line." Simply omitting a signature as you did in the message to which I'm replying will not eliminate the quoting of the automatically added footers on this list. Which footers, by the way, are very convenient and useful to have, as they take one to a website full of extremely useful information about The Bat! I hope my quote of the Help file, above, does help you a little bit, anyway. :) -- Best regards, Mary The Bat! 3.0.2.10 on Windows XP 5.1 2600 Service Pack 2 ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.0.1.33 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
