Setting initials used in quoted reply
Hi TBTechsters, I've been using The Bat! for about 9 months now and I monitor TBUDL regularly. I am, of course, now a devoted fan. I joined this list primarily to get some help fixing a consistent problem I have when I receive email from people who use AOL. When I reply to their messages, the initials used in the quoted reply are unsatisfactory to me because they aren't the person's actual initials but are, instead, a derivation of their email address. Here is an example -- Hac. The person's handle on AOL is Hypersteev, so I understand where the H comes from, but what is the ac part. So far, I've been unable to figure how to specify, with an AB template or anything else for that matter, what initials will be used to preface quotes in the reply. Is it possible to tell The Bat! what to use as initials in a quoted reply? Thanks for any suggestions you can offer. -- Regards, Perry Using The Bat! v1.60q on Windows ME 4.90 Build 3000 After the last of 16 mounting screws has been removed from an access cover, it will be discovered that the wrong access cover has been removed. -- De La Lastra's Law __ Archives : http://tbtech.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

After I posted my message, I realized that I had reasoned that out before, but I had forgotten my previous conclusion. What can I say? My forgetter is more functional that my rememberer. Now if only one of the wizards on this list can offer a solution. I confess I'm worried that it isn't possible, though it would make sense to have the ability to tell The Bat! to use the address book initials in the quoted reply. -- Regards, Perry If rich people could hire other people to die for them, the poor could make a wonderful living. -- Yiddish Proverb Using The Bat! v1.60q on Windows ME 4.90 Build 3000 __ Archives : http://tbtech.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi Allie, Saturday, June 29, 2002, 11:18:55 AM, you wrote: ACM Have you examined the header information. TB! usually uses the ACM From header information. Do the AOL messages include a name in ACM the From: header or just the e-mail address? PN Is it possible to tell The Bat! what to use as initials in a PN quoted reply? ACM Yes. You can either give a fixed string or extract the initials ACM from header information using the %Quotestyle macro. ACM If the AOL messages only include the e-mail address and you have ACM the persons e-mail address in your address book, you could ACM generate their initials doing the following: specifics snipped Thanks, Allie, for the thoroughness and detail of your reply. As you'll see from my reply to Marck I've employed the simpler solution of placing the initials I want to use in the Prefix field of the AB and then using the %QUOTESTYLE==%ABtoNamePrefix option.

Hi Allie, Saturday, June 29, 2002, 12:22:24 PM, you wrote: PN What advantages do you see to using Januk's Initial Extractor PN QTs? ACM It nicely generates the initials depending on the situation. Your ACM initial macro will work only if you have the senders e-mail ACM address in your address book. Januk's will work even when the ACM senders address isn't in the address book. It will instead use ACM the initials extracted from the name included with the From ACM address. Thanks again for your reply. I'm sure there'll be situations where I can use those QTs for extracting initials to be used in various places in other macros. You will remember, however, that my problem existed because there was no name in the From address (although I failed to answer that question from you in my previous reply). The Bat!'s default template seems to work without intervention when the name exists in the From address in the header. -- Regards, Perry Before I met my husband, I'd never fallen in love, though I'd stepped in it a few times. -- Rita Rudner Using The Bat! v1.60q on Windows ME 4.90 Build 3000 __ Archives : http://tbtech.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
