You could probably do something based around the %ABnnnPPP macro. Look in TB!'s help file under "macros" - I've pasted some of the entry here. ---Begin paste--- ABnnnPPP Inserts a field from the address book. "nnn" determines the address used, "PPP" is the address book field to be used. Values for nnn: TOAddress Book entry for the TO header (current message) FROMAddress Book entry for the FROM header (current message) [...] Values for PPP: Namefull name FirstNamefirst name LastNamelast name MiddleNamemiddle name Handlehandle NamePrefixname prefix NameSuffixname suffix Birthdaydate of birth e-mailprimary e-mail address Addrprivate street address [...] ---End paste--- There's probably a slicker way but one suggestion is to set up a quick template that extracts the required fields from the address book entry of the person the email's addressed to. For example, %ABtoFirstName would insert the contents of the first name field from the address book entry of the person addressed in the "To" field of the message. To send Bill's details to Fred, you would create a message addressed to Bill. You would then call the Quick template. Then change the "To" field to Fred. You now have a message addressed to Fred containing Bill's details. Is Bill OK with you sending Fred his contact details? -- Best regards, MFPA Don't talk unless you can improve on the silence Using The Bat! v4.0.32.4 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Current version is 4.0.24.0 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Re: SSL SMTP Problems
All I can say is that various virus infections and other nuisance things make my PC working in an odd mode I have a gmail account and following the data supplied had it running with the bat when installed the first time. Problem is, at the moment it doesn't work As mentioned, make sure you don't loose emails and following the instructions try a clean install I probably will do the same as soon as I have a virus removed which made itself a home in my PC.

It isn't very likely that it is TB, after all I can connect just fine with TB and gamil, I don't know what version of TB you're using, but gmail and TB have been compatible since the beginning of gmail. When you're able to manage a proper download with another mail client and not with TB then you're probably enabling some option that you shouldn't. -- Groetjes, Roelof WinErr: 019 User error - Not our fault.

Re: SSL SMTP Problems
The problem is, it is The Bat. I cannot get Internode to work either. If I can get both services to work fine with Thunderbird on the same computer, why do they not work with The Bat?> I have tried them both months ago and had the same problem. It is something wrong with The Bat.

Greetings Scott, 07:20, Thursday, November 20, 2008 I had exactly the same experience with Gmail. I tried all combinations of STARTTLS and TLS, port 465 and 587. It simply refused to send mail. Very frustrating. Some weeks later, however, I tried again and it worked the first time. My guess is that once it gets set wrong, something (in The Bat or Gmail?) doesn't get reset.

Thanks for the response, I'd been doing a similar thing with Outlook (which I still use for contacts). This is definitely one step closer, but I was hoping that there was some cunning way to do it from a quick template or similar. I'll be using this method in the meantime though :-) -- Nick | [EMAIL PROTECTED] Current version is 4.0.24.0 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
