This was one reason I made use of the memo field to store secondary email addresses. Miguel hates this because it relies heavily on regular expressions, but if you have a bit of patience you might like to try it. Firstly include the line: %QInclude(Add_CC)%- in your New Message, Reply and Forward templates for your accounts. Then in your address book entry include one email address in the usual place and include the second email address in the memo field (on the "Other" tab) in this form on a line by itself: <CC>[email protected]</CC> It doesn't have to be the only information in the memo tab, just by itself on one line. Then you need to set up the following quick templates. There are 4 of them, and you need them all. They call one another in a chain and the effect is to look for secondary addresses like the one above and automatically add them in the CC field. If you were to put the address between BCC tags like this: <BCC>[email protected]</BCC> the address would be added to the BCC field. If there are multiple recipients in the TO or CC fields, the macros will do this for each person. Copy and paste the contents between the marked Start and End lines. Please make sure that long lines do not get wrapped in the Quick Template editor. The first macro is called "Add_CC" (without the quotes of course). ====[ Start Add_CC ]==== %REM=" Include secondary addresses noted in memo field between <CC> or <BCC> tags.
