Hallo admin,

live), you wrote:

MG Now the RegEx to extract the name and email address.

MG %FROMNAME=
MG %FROM=
MG %SUBJ=

You don't need these, first of all, you can't set the from name with
the %FromName macro, what it does is inserting the %FromName in the
text,what you're actually doing here is saying: insert the from name
and when that doesn't exist insert nothing.
Then you're setting the From header to nothing, that's not necessary,
when you use the %From=Any given address macro, the From header is
substituted by the Any given address part. The construct you're
using is used for the %To= macro, but that's behaving differently, the
%To= macro adds the new address to the To header, but that's ann
exception.
The same goes for the %Subj= macro, it's not necessary, because the
%Subj=Any given subject overwrites the old subject.

MG %SUBJ=subscribe
MG %SETPATTREGEXP=submitted by\s*?^(.*?) \((.*?)\)
MG %RegExpBlindMatch='%Text'%-
MG Email: %SUBPATT='2'
MG Name: %SUBPATT='1'
MG Source: Web Page Enquiry
MG %FROM=%SUBPATT='2'

The above doesn't quite do what you want, so I've altered it a bit,
note that I'm only using the parts the set the appropriate headers,
what you want in the message body is up to you.

%Subj=subscribe%-
%SetPattRegExp=submitted by\s*?^(.*?) \((.*?)\)%-
%RegExpBlindMatch='%Text'%-
%From=_%SubPatt='1' %SubPatt='2'_%-

I've only edited the %From= macro
I'm using the underscore as quote signs, because I'm needing the
single and double quotes in the macro. The double quotes are used to
enclose the name. Suppose someone is using a name with an initial,
like George W. Bush, that would give a bad username, since dots aren't
allowed in the user part unless they're enclosed by quotes.
The single quotes speak for themselves.

However, I'd like to point out that it's bad form to send mail with
somebody else's name and address in the from header and that's what
you're doing here. I guess you're trying to subscribe them to a
mailing list or news letter, therefore I hope your mailing list asks
for a confirmation by mail before really subscribing them, because
otherwise it would be very easy to abuse it. That way I could enter
Marck's address to your webform and you'd subscribe him without his
consent.

Doesn't seem to work...

DH If you change your POP3 settings of your email client back to normal

MG BTW I can't find anywhere where it says what the %- and the #- things do at

The '%-' skips the line break, so a macro that only sets a header

The '#-' is a cute one, don't know where you picked it up, but it
inserts #- in your message body. SCNR

MG And finally - do I take it that ' and  are interchangeable as long as they

Yes, basically these four macros do the same:
%From=me myaddress
%From='me myaddress'
%From=#me myaddress#
%From=_me myaddress_

Though I'd prefer to use this macro for the above:
%From='me myaddress'%-

C phrased differently:

C Go to Tools/AutoCorrect Options

It's a shame that Word doesn't propose 2 check boxes instead of 1 for simple

I'd switch to not sync'ing at all. Someone recently linked header
