Hi all:
I am pasting below a outlook express script to allow you to reply to sender:
Here it is. Please check to see that mail transmission has not broken any
lines that should be longer than the screen width. Then put this into
msimnui.jss for IE4 or msoe.jss for IE5 and compile. I assigned it to
Control+s as this is not currently assigned to anything.
What this does is to open the properties of the current message, find the
From: field in the message headers, copy the address to the clipboard, close
the properties, start a new message, and paste the address into the To:
field. On a 133mhz Pentium this design worked for all except the first
message of the session, so you likely won't have any trouble.
Good luck. I hope it works.

Hi Tom,
Not sure this answers your question but this method I use does seem a little
simpler!
What I do is hit CTRL-R for reply. This puts a copy of the message I am
replying to into the edit window.
Then I cursor down to the original message from part, arrow across to the
e-mail address of the original sender, with SHIFT-CTRL-RIGHT ARROW I
highlght the e-mail address which is within angle brackets and copy to the
clipboard.
Go to the top of the message, quickest way with CTRL-HOME then back tab
(SHIFT-TAB) to the TO: field or in this case to the CC: field and paste the
e-mail address in, then delete the angle brackets or in the case that there
is also the list e-mail address, delete that out too.
I think it strange that OutlookExpress doesn't offer a more simple method
but there it is, if there is an easier way I haven't yet found it. It would
also be nice if Outlook Express offered a choice to quote the original
message.
No Todd you are not necessarily running Outlook98, probably you are not. It
is a different programme with calendars, appointment books, postit notes you
can stick all over your screen and a bunch of other stuff. OutloodExpress
is pretty much just the e-mail and usenet part.
Hope this is helpful.
