A template question
Hi all, I need help !!! I use a tracking mail system called DidTheyReadIt available at http://www.didtheyreadit.com. In oreder to track my emails I have to add .didtheyreadit.com at the end of each address of my new/reply messages. With templates, if possible, I would like to autoappend the _to_ field with this .didtheyreadit.com text. Is it currently possible and how to achieve this please ?

Maybe it helps to close TB, rename the tbuser.def file in your account directory to tbuser.old and start TB again. Note that this will disable all of your customizations, so it should not be the first thing you try. -- Groetjes, Roelof Mistrust first impulses, they are always good.

Can't get a preview pane
Hello listbuds... for some reason, starting today I can't get the preview pane working. I cannot make it appear... I've been using TB since 2001, so I'm not a novice but nothing I do will bring it back. I'm on 3.71.03, winxp I can't fathom why this is not working.
