If I don't use action form and simply provide <input type="text" value="<bean:message key='admin.msg.rcpt'/>"> everything works fine and I can see the proper internalized string in the text field. But I need to use action forms.
Not using the <html:text/> tag does *not* mean that you cannot use ActionForms. The <html:text/> tag is a convenience for displaying form values to the user. Since it looks like you're pulling the value from a properties file using <bean:message/> instead of from the ActionForm, I don't see that you would lose anything by using the approach you mention here.
