This is what I use, and not sure from your JP post how to correct:_ JP %TO=[EMAIL PROTECTED] %TO=%TO=[EMAIL PROTECTED] for new messages %TO=''%TO='%OFROMFNAME on TBUDL [EMAIL PROTECTED] for replies. JP Also which one of the three macros you posted should I use? Erm - all? They were nested quick templates, all interdependent. And I count five. As I said in the original posting, 'Just use %QINCLUDE=DATER in a reply template or greeting line formatter QT.' -- Cheers -- .\\arck D Pearlstone -- List moderator TB! v2.00.6 on Windows XP 5.1.2600 Service Pack 1 pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature Current version is 2.00 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Can a macro - RegExP expert help here?
Well, I don't claim to be a Regexp expert, but the following checks
the day in your timezone to the day in the sender's, and if they are
different, inserts your day and time, otherwise just your time.

Hi Martin, @18-Sep-2003, 23:03 Martin Webster [MW] in mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] said to Marck: MDP %TO=%TO=[EMAIL PROTECTED] for new messages MDP %TO=''%TO='%OFROMFNAME on TBUDL [EMAIL PROTECTED] MDP for replies.
