Hi Syafril,

Syafril Hermansyah wrote to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and made these
points:

Yes, but you're back to having to read the message to find out who's
being spoken to rather than seeing it from the address.

But if I understand you correctly then it's ridiculous anyway. Their
mailer will reply with  instead.

IMHO Such lists require a different reply tactic of - To:
, CC: "Real_name  to make message
addressing and attribution clear. IMHO it's a matter of finding a
sensible middle ground and using TB's AB reply template power to make
the right call for you on a per-list basis.

Horses for courses, no single rule. I still believe that "... on
XYZList"  is the more friendly form for the average
list. It works well here *and* on Yahoogroups. That's most of the
lists I converse on.

SH> Why annoying ?

Because you can't see who a message is addressed to without reading
it. Okay, maybe "irritating" rather than annoying.

I have that working already, although there's no way to differentiate
a reply to our thread from an actual reply to me personally.

Agreed.

H> How do I take senders initials from original senders full name ?

To get them in the quote prefix, you can do as Thomas suggested.  To
get the initials for other uses you need a regular expression.  The
macro I use is limited to the first three initials, but it is fairly
trivial to increase the upper limit to many more.

Before I post the macro here, perhaps you could enlighten us as to
your purpose.

Remember  when sometimes ago the "Real Name Part" not comes up on this
list  ?  I  set the list route to Smarthouse; the listserver only send
single  copy  to other Smarthouse on other ISP for further distibution
because  at that time my ISP having routing problem. If I have to keep
"Real  Name  Part"  intact,  I  must route more than 5 hundreds msg to
smarthouse for every posting, this is waste of bandwith.

There is no need to disable it for that. I have it enabled but don't
have those problems with auto-completing. I think that's because I
have auto-complete enabled for Address book only. I don't use
auto-complete for history.

That's not the point - I read every message anyway. ;-)

However, when I later scroll through the message list of today's
messages, it is far easier to find a specific message when you
remember that Marck replied to Syafril, rather than Allie replied to
TBUDL. Especially in long threads where the subject remains unchanged.
Scrolling this way is *a lot* faster than searching.

I disagree. While it is incorrect to just state the real name and then
the list address (see discussion about a year ago where SL made this
point), I find it much better to use the full features power of TB to
construct addressees like I have above.

As to the autocomplete (as mentioned by Allie): I have yet to

> You're saying that the only weakness in PGP is the fear of weakness?
> That's the only known way to break it?

OK, that was the very short version. Here comes a slightly more
comprehensive version (please read the intro I gave you the link for):

1. Since all encrypted messages have to be decrypted to be read, every
crypto scheme has weaknesses. With advanced computer power it is
possible to create keys that are virtually unbreakable.

2. For symmetric keys (you and I have the same key) the weaknesses are
relatively high. Some of them can be minimised (by using every time a new
key), but they introduce new trouble.

3. Asymmetric keys have the advantage that two parts are used and they
main weakness is to have both of them together. * I highly recommend
to read Zimmermann's article (the intro to PGP) for details!*

4. With PGP there are actually four levels of security, asymmetric
keys, keys are generated new every time (symmetric), it uses data
compression (ZIP) and a passphrase.

5. The algorithms used by PGP are so good, there has not been found a
logical flaw in them for the last 10 years - and even longer, some of
the algorithms are known since the 60s.

6. How to break PGP? Either by brute force, that is
combine the computation of a lot of computers and let it work on a
key. It can be shown that all the computational power in the world at
the moment will not break a PGP key in all the time left till the end
of our solar system *on average*.

7. The other way is to get hold of the keys (especially the private
one) *and* the passphrase of its owner. that was what I meant by
"violence and stupidity".

8. So your assessment is correct for now: PGP is practically
unbreakable except by planting the seeds of doubt (Hmm, read one Oz
novel too many?).

Please let us stop here before it goes into a heated argument. If you
read Zimmermann's intro, you will get the details. If you are really
interested in the mathematics behind, there are some good books on
cryptology on the market.

that's a tight corner to pull; *because* there is decryption *there
must be* weaknesses?

(are we off-topic yet?)

well, that *and* was not a necessity; there was a flaw in the
definition of the private keyring (the file containing the private
keys), so that the passphrase was not necessary to sign messages.

As do I. I still haven't seen a good reason stated for not doing this
and there are quite a few reasons *for* it. Syafril's argument was
self defeating in that the Linux mailers in question are going to have
trouble whatever addressing us TB users apply.

Since I've used the "... on XYZlist", I haven't been castigated for it
once. I use it on PGP-Basics too as well as here. It makes it much
clearer who is talking to who when reviewing a thread.

This used to be a problem when auto-complete only worked from the
history. I've seen many a cropper in the old days when folks thought
they'd picked and off-list address and sent to the list instead. I was
even caught out myself a couple of times. Now that it works from the
AB, it's a huge sigh of relief all round.

Maybe, but there's always the "by hand" fix for when the automation
goes wrong - one that the the original incorrect reply should have
been employing.

The real point being made here is that when it goes *right* (which is
*all* of the time on most lists I've seen) it makes for a much richer
and more human dialog and threading format.

The "Real name" part of an address is meant to make the message
address more humanly readable. Why not use it for that purpose?

For  personal mail/communication no problem, but for Mailing List it's
different...we talk to all members not only to one person :-)

Just  like  if you talking face to face it's different with talking in
forum/seminar...which  normally we try to speak in term as low term as

Firstly, there are two ways you can go... PGP and/or GnuPG, depending on
your preferences. Having just started out you really haven't fashioned
any preferences as yet so I would suggest, as Dierk has, that you
download and install PGP 6.5.8ckt Build 06 for starters.

Secondly, before you go ahead and generate Key Pairs, may I suggest you
join our PGP-Basics Mailing List which has been set-up just for
beginners such as yourself. Just send a blank message to this address:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Look forward to seeing you on List. There are quite a few TB! Users on
the List as well, so it's an excellent forum to get help when using PGP
and/or GnuPG with TB!.

In the first instance yes, but once we start answering specific
questions from the floor, from individuals, then it becomes clearer
when our comments are addressed to such individuals rather than to the
floor as a whole. In fact, it's considered off-hand and rude to do
otherwise unless our comments *are* for the floor.

That's  exactly  what  they  do  if  they  replied  us, make them feel

In that good old days, people believe that, in general, one should be

Calendar & To Do program with the Bat?

2001-09-04 Thread Miles Johnson

Hello good Bat people,

We're looking for a good shareware program that:

- offers to do lists and calendar features with good flexibility
- is stable
- does not use large system resources
- ideally would integrate with The Bat in some way

Anything you like and/or use out there?

Not that I am aware of, but I've been desperately searching for one and
am just about to purchase Office 2K so I can use Outlook 2K for that
very purpose. I don't necessarily want to expend the money for that, so
if you find anything would you be so kind as to let me/us know?

On  forum/seminars,  we  are  not  the only one acting as "speaker" to
answer  others  question,  this  is  not  a  class with only one guru,
sometimes  the  questions came from a group of audience and the answer

Taking your forum analogy, the "... on list" is equivalent to saying:
"To the contribution made by Syafril, I would like to add/reply/..."
Thus, it is clear whose contribution you refer to (this is actually
quite normal in forums in my own experience), and has nothing to do
with whispering.

Re[2]: pgp/gnupg

2001-09-04 Thread ::Andrew::

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hello Marck,

Before it goes totally OT. Can I just summarise the key (no pun
intended) points which have been really useful to me as someone
starting to use TB and PGP for the first time? I think this
should
roundly bring the topic to a close on TBUDL and provide a useful
resource to anyone else wanting to use TB with PGP.

1) You'll need a copy of PGP. If you want a version that will
work
integrated with TB! get version 6.5.x (this version is also open
source so you can be reasonably sure it's secure - ie. no back
doors have been introduced).
Go here to get a copy: http://web.mit.edu/network/pgp.html

2) You should read-up on PGP before trying anything because it'll
make so much more sense once you have.
Why you need privacy by Phil Zimmermann:
http://www.pgpi.org/doc/whypgp/en/
Intro to PGP by Phil Zimmermann:
http://www.pgpi.org/doc/pgpintro/

3) You'll need to download the pgp dll's from ritlabs.com website
(in the download section). These dll's once extracted should be
placed in The Bat! programme directory. That'll probably be
C:\Program Files\The Bat!\ for most people.

4) In TB! there's three main ways to access the main PGP
features.
When you're editing an email under the 'Privacy' menu, from the
main
programme screen 'Tools/Open PGP' or via a Hot Key defined in PGP
software.

5) You'll need to generate your keys which is a simple process
automated via a wizard.

6) From the main programme screen, Tools/OpenPGP/Choose OpenPGP
version/ click on the version you want to use. You're done.

The above should be enough information for you to integrate the
PGP with TB!. A discussion on how you actually send PGP encrypted
messages is probably down to you understanding PGP itself and is
therefore not appropriate for TBUDL.

I hope this is an accurate interpretation of the the discussion
and will be helpful.

Okay taken like that, why it should be redundancy, either on TO:
 and on the body text ?

Please  note,  the  problem  comes  from the TO: Real Name

i think there's no way to stop the default behaviour other than
creating a simple filter, which will automatically move the messages
from the "Sent" folder to "Trash".

German spell checker

2001-09-04 Thread Dierk Haasis

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hello TBUDL Members!

  Some of the non-German members may have heard that we have a new set
  of rules for spelling in German speaking countries (officially,
  privately everyone can do what he wants).

  Now, as a professional writer I have to come to terms with it, and
  use real-time spell checking in TB! and other apps for it. TB! has
  its own dictionary and makes use of MS Office dics. So Am Eng, Brit
  Eng and German are shown two times in my menu - once original TB!,
  once MS Office. For American English it even shows CSAPI in
  brackets.

  If I want to manually change the spell checker, there is no
  difficulty. But for lots of people I use templates with the
  %LANGUAGE macro set to "DE". How can I tell TB! through this macro
  (or another way) to use not its own but the MS Office one with the
  new rules?

  BTW, how come when I open a message from the Outbox, created by a
  template with language set to German, the spell checker then uses
  British?

See in my greeting how specific I am?  Yes, I know. You wish to see
something similar without having to open the message. Again this is
reflected in the message threading. If I see a message directly
referenced to yours, then I know, it's a response to your message.

I guess I don't mind either way because I don't use the To: column.

Now, if I can only be convinced enough to go back to using the reply

I'll change if I find myself managing only with address book

If there are only a few messages (say 2 or 3), I stay in the preview

It is in the unthreaded main message list that the name of the person

Since I am totally with Marck on this topic, let me just add that as
long as nobody will force *me* to change this, anybody else may do
what he wants.

I really like to see quickly who wrote what. But I try to remember
individuals; I sometimes err, but I try. And for me discussion forums,
conferences, mailing lists, Usenet and what else are not just
anonymous infotainment bazaars but they are about individuals/-ity.

was when, Haye [H] typed the following:

H> like you messagesHaye [H]how do i take "[H]" ?
H> Thanks a lot Januk and Thomas :)

I use a series of quick templates:

1. Initials QT
%SETPATTREGEXP="(?is)(\w).*?([-_=@\.\s]+(\w).*?)?([-_=@\.\s]+(\w).*?)?$"%-
%REGEXPBLINDMATCH="%QINCLUDE=""Full Name"""%-
%SUBPATT="1"%SUBPATT="3"%SUBPATT="5"%-

2. Full Name QT
%CAPITAL='%ABofromNAME="%QINCLUDE=""Full Name - No AB Entry"""'

3. Full Name - No AB Entry QT
%SETPATTREGEXP="^(?(?=.*?\@)(.*?)\@|(.*)$)"%-
%REGEXPBLINDMATCH="%OFROMNAME"%-
%SUBPATT="1"%SUBPATT="2"%-

The initials QT takes the first 3 initials from the output of the Full
Name quick template.  The full name quick template looks for an
address book entry and capitalizes the words.  If there is no AB entry
for the address, then the last QT is invoked.  It returns the full
name as shown in the From line.  If there is only an address, then it
takes only the stuff up to the @ symbol (ie, it ignores the domain.)

If you need help changing any part of this to better suit your needs,
let me know on the TBTECH list (see message footer).

Hello Dierk, and all:

(Warning: This message is virtually a new topic.)

I guess there are good reasons why people would not want to keep these
SENT messages. But I find them very useful.

Sometimes I change (improve) the subject line and then the SENT
messages allow me to find a topic more easily.

Also, the SENT messages often are more or less equal to a subset of
the most important or personal messages I receive, because I
acknowledge them.

And of course only this folder contains everything I have written myself.

When I have lost other folders in the past (due to a bug??) the sent
folder constituted a very important backup collection.

I would be interested to hear how others (who want to keep all SENT
messages) handle such messages, using filtering or other procedures.

Indeed, if there were just one folder I would keep "forever" it might
be the SENT folder contents.

as for me, i keep the selected contents of the "Sent" folder,
personally. as i don't write *that* much email, i go the folder once
in a while to do manual cleaning of the non-important messages, while
the personal and important ones just live there.

i wonder if it would be possible to make a macro, which once inserted

This intrigued me, so I went there to see.  And found this:

"Palm Desktop 4.0.1 installer only supports handhelds from Palm, Inc."

It seems they are saying not to try to use with a cheap generic
device. But, let me assume that all Palm functionality should also be available on
*any* *desktop* computer that supports the cradle. Thoughts?

Anybody know why this is not a viable "sample" for us, "before" we buy
a device from Palm?  Frankly, I am not sure there is a role for a Palm
or any other PDA in my life. But this might actually be a good selling
tool for Palm, aimed at skeptics. Like me.

I'll let you know what I find and experience. Others with comments?

Hi Miles,

Are you looking for something to use in a professional/business
capacity or for personal use?

I cannot help you with a business calendar, but if you want one for
personal use with a calendar, diary, tasks, address book capability -
plus a few extras, "Digita Organiser" is very useful. It is free and
as far as I can tell doesn't use much in the way of resources. I open
it from the desktop when I need it - do not have it open all the time.

cannot be integrated into TB! or other clients but I don't find that a
problem. I was previously using Outlook 2000, but I don't miss it at
all!

Slowness opening folders - solutions?

2001-09-04 Thread Jason Ellis

Hello List,

I am using TB v1.51 on Windows 2000, and since moving to this
combination in May (previously I was on Windows NT with TB 1.48) I
have found that it takes an excruciatingly long time to open folders
within TB.

I am wondering if upgrading to the newest version of TB (1.53d it
looks like) will solve this problem or only make it worse? Anyone else
have this issue and able to correct it?

Basically what happens is when I click on a folder in TB, the
computer's hard drive sits and spins for an eternity (45 to 60
seconds) before the contents of that folder finally show up in the
preview pane. I've thought that maybe TB isn't storing these things in
RAM anymore, and I've considered upgrading my RAM (I have 256 megs
now, which should certainly be enough) in the hopes it might solve
this, but I honestly think the problem is with TB 1.51 and not with
the computer (since I've not had problems with any programs other than
TB).

This never happened on earlier versions - just this one. But because
the upgrade of TB occurred at the same time I moved to W2K, I do not
know if it is a problem within TB itself or an operational problem of
TB running on W2K.

Anyone have this problem who could provide some guidance?

Thanks,

Jason

Re: Slowness opening folders - solutions?

2001-09-04 Thread Jason Ellis

Oh, one other thing - this happens mostly when opening a folder, but
it does also happen when browsing within a folder that has a lot of
messages - I'll be reading along no problem and then I'll click on a
message and it'll sit there and spin for a minute or two before
loading it up. A similar symptom also occurs (but last two to three
times as long) when trying to use the spell checker.

Re[2]: Calendar & To Do program with the Bat?

2001-09-04 Thread Miles Johnson

Are you looking for something to use in a professional/business
capacity or for personal use?

That's a hard question, since much of our personal and professional lives
seem to increasingly use the same type of communication tools. But we're
definitely not talking big business here!

I cannot help you with a business calendar, but if you want one for
personal use with a calendar, diary, tasks, address book capability -
plus a few extras, "Digita Organiser" is very useful.

Where do I find this? Got a URL?

Thanks!

 It sounds like you need to compress the folders.
 (Folders -> Compress all folders).

 When you delete a message, it is not removed from disk, it is only
 marked as deleted.  A compress operation physically removes these
 messages.  To see if you do have these deleted messages on disk, use
 the Folder->Browse Deleted feature.

 You can automate the compression so that it occurs every time you
 close down TB.  This option is set folder-by-folder in the folder
 properties.

 One other thing you can check out is the Purge option.  Purge will
 delete messages based on your folder settings.  It then runs a
 compress operation automatically.

Try compressing all folders Folder -> Compress all folder. When you
delete a message, TB doesn't really erase it, only assigns it for
deletion. I also suggest setting On Exit -> Compress the folder in the
properties of those folders with much activity - Inbox and Outbox most
certainly.

You have enough RAM to operate TB!. :-) 256MB is more than enough
unless you're doing a whole lot with your machine.

Have you been compressing your folders? If not, then I suggest running
a compress all operation on your folders and see what happens. How
many messages do you have in the slowest folders?

The site is actually a tax centre! The organiser is referred to as a

2001-09-04 Thread Jason Ellis

Thanks to Januk, Allie, and SyP. I just compressed all folders (never
did that before - I never knew that TB didn't really delete messages -
that seems like a bad thing to me. If I hit the delete button, it
should move it to the trash folder. It should *not* leave it hidden in
the folder it was originally in, that just doesn't make any sense at
all.

Anyway, thanks to those who responded. Hopefully now the problem has
been solved - if this doesn't fix it, I'll post another message.

You have to understand what an email "folder" is first. It is
essentially a large flat file stream of messages. To "delete" a
message completely means rewriting the entire flat file while
excluding the block of text that "once was a message". And rebuilding
the index. That takes quite a while, and for it to happen every time
you hit "delete" would be grossly unacceptable, as I'm sure you
appreciate.

Obviously, it makes more sense to simply mark the message as deleted
and mark the folder as one which is "compressed on exit" to remove
such remnants.

TB is not alone in the use of such mail database structures. It is the
standard in the Unix world, for instance.

Yes. Use the following macro:

%ABofromFIRSTNAME="%OFROMFNAME"

If the recipient is in the address book, then the address book name
will be used. If you wish to use the nickname first then use this:

%ABofromHANDLE="%ABofromFIRSTNAME='%OFROMFNAME'"

Hello Yuki,

Historians believe that Wednesday, September 5, 2001 at 08:00 GMT
+0900 was when, Yuki Taga [YT] typed the following:

YT> addresses, like this:  "SC" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.  When I reply to

Yes, there are two methods you can use.  Both require you to create an
Address Book entry for the person in question.

The first method, you change your reply template so that the macro
%OFROMFNAME is replaced with %ABofromFNAME="%OFROMFNAME"

The %AB macros compare an email address to the entries in your address
book.  It will then extract the requested information from that entry.
So in this example, you're looking at the Original FROM address and
extracting the First NAME.  If there is no matching entry, then the
part in quotes is used.  In this case, we want the first name as
declared in the message you're responding to.

The other method is to create an address book template for the AB
entry in question.  This way you can create further customization for
that individual.  This can get tedious if you have a large number of
people with similar templates.

You can avoid the tedium if you use quick templates. Then the AB
templates can be simplified to simply including (%QINCLUDE) the quick
template you want.  Either way, I highly recommend that you do as much
of your template work as you can in Quick templates.  If you plan it
correctly, you can reuse useful and/or complicated pieces without the
risk of copying errors.  It makes maintenance much simpler.

Images in HTML emails?

2001-09-04 Thread Jason Palmgren

Hello all:

I am a newbie here.  Sorry if this has been covered.

I'm not a very "hardcore" user yet.  I have been using Outlook Express for years, but 
I love the advanced
features that TB offers!  How can I switch the settings so that images
in the HTML emails *ARE* displayed?

I know that this is undesirable to
some people, but I use images in emails to help me remember the
content of the message.  For me it is just a mental trigger.

Thanks!

How to make GLOBAL changes?

2001-09-04 Thread Jason Palmgren

Hello all:

Another question for you...  I would like to change the "From" "To"
"Subject" "Received" "Created" "Size" bar in the inbox.  I would like
the bar to include only a few of the columns.  It's easy enough to
change the settings for each folder individually, but how can I make
a change that will apply to ALL the folders simultaneously?

Thanks!

as long as the images aren't sent along with the email, there is no
option available to make the images visible. thabat! will not, ever,
fetch images mentioned in an HTML  tag from a server with http.

trust me, that is a very big PLUS for your privacy.

have you found the memo-view (ctrl-shift-i) already? it's like a
little post-it! you can attach to emails.. it takes a bit getting used
to, but i find it very handy.

an useful tip i don't remember who came from: set the width of the
memo-column to 6, and make sure you enter a '!' as the first character
of every memo.

you can choose columns in the message-list by right-clicking on the
column-headers there (i must be off to bed now, i'm not able to
construct semantically correct english anymore :).

have a good time!

Yes there is. By using the %AbnnnPPP macro in your template.  It will insert a field 
from the address
book. The "nnn" part determines the address that is used to retrieve
information from the address book, the "PPP" part is the name of the
address book field to be used.

There is good documentation in help.

to change the order in which the folders (inbox, outbox, sent) are
presented to you: press 'alt', then drag the folder.

if you meant to move the directory where the mail is kept for one
account: under 'account properties' (ctrl-shift-p), files &
directories, there is a possibility to change the directory for the
account.

the default for this is set in the general preferences (options,
preferences, system).

general suggestion: you should try to navigate through all menus at
least once. it's like getting to know a new house, with all the cracks
and cravices that are there. thebat! really has a LOAD of features
that you will never explore otherwise.

you'll remember more of them if you find the features yourself!

The list is now improved in that messages not sent using a subscribed
e-mail address is sent to us for inspection so that we can approve or
delete it.

If you've discovered that you sent the message using the wrong
account, I suggest not reposting but just waiting for a while. One of
us will see it and approve of it within reasonable time.

As you can see, we tend to approve fairly quickly since I approved
your message before seeing this message from you. :-)

I don't wish for the feature to lead to a lot of double postings.

Re[2]: Why no HTML

2001-09-04 Thread Peter Chiou

There is a way that one can also use to track an email - when was it
read, who read it, from what IP was it read.

As an application simply append confirm.to to any email address, e.g
[EMAIL PROTECTED] This will track the email,
assuming the reader uses an HTML client that downloads the images from
internet.

The mechanism by which the tracking is accomplished is
quite simple. When you send the email with "confirm.to" appended to
the email address the message actually gets routed thru the domain
"confirm.to" where a .gif image is inserted into the email. The image
is actually a reference to an URL that tracks the message.  So if the
intended recipient forwards it to someone else and this someone else
reads it with an HTML client, then you will know about it - when it
was read, by whom, and from what IP.

The obvious counter to this is to not use an HTML mail reader that
pulls from the internet at real time.

I hope this makes sense.  If not, just try it and see what happens.

You can only do it on a per-account basis, but that's better than
per-folder.  The way to do it is to go into the folder properties and
select "Use Account Default column settings".  You will have to do
this step for every folder, one by one.  Once that's done, changing
the columns in any one folder will change them for all of the accounts
folders.

Oh, and while you're at it.  You should check out the other folder
options at the same time.  I personally recommend that you enable
"Compress on exit" for all folders.  If not all, it is recommended for
high volume folders like your inbox and outbox.  See some of the
recent threads for reasons why.

Mrten's reply was a bit confusing. Images *in* the HTML emails are of
course displayed. The images that are sent as attachments, that is.

Only images that are *not* in the email, i.e. not attached will not be
displayed. And this will not be changed. The reason is, many TB users
know a thing or two about programming and/or security. If TB ever
allows downloading images from the internet because of a GET command
or the like, TB will lose 90% of its customer base (including myself).

Does Outlook integrate with TB?  If not, there are still a few non-MS
PIM's around that do as much as or more than Outlook without the
overhead.

Before MCS Dallas shut down development of Calypso, they had worked a
deal with Time & Chaos for integration. Nice touch. Perhaps RIT Labs
could strike up a similar deal with them or someone.

Re: Senders Initials

Hello Haye,

JA>> 1. Initials QT
JA>> %SETPATTREGEXP="(?is)(\w).*?([-_=@\.\s]+(\w).*?)?([-_=@\.\s]+(\w).*?)?$"%-

H> 

H> I was try you macro but I not found senders initials

H> I want to get sender initials ( in [] ),

Here is a step-by-step guide for getting this to work.

1. Create three quick templates (Options -> Quick Templates)
   a) Name the first one: "Initials"
   second:"Full Name"
   third: "Full Name - No AB entry"
   b) Make them all available to all accounts (this is optional, but
  you might as well).
   c) Paste in the lines I gave you in the previous message.

2. Once you've done that, you can check to see if they are working by
   replying to a message, then in the editor type Initials followed by
   .  If the initials of the person you're replying to
   appear, then you know it worked.

3. Now, in the template where you want to insert initials, put the
   following: %QINCLUDE="Full Name" [%QINCLUDE="Initials"]

4. Reply to a message and enjoy!
