-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi Terry, @17 July 2002, 12:35 -0700 (20:35 UK time) Terry G. Munson [T] in [EMAIL PROTECTED]">mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] said to Marck on TBUDL: T I don't know what I did wrong...since I just clicked on the T Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]; that is on T every message sent out by the list!! ;-) ...but I am sure that I T screwed up somewhere. T I will follow your advice. Here's what you did wrong - and I'll make it public so that everyone can see that it doesn't work to say Well, I use folder templates all the time and they always work well for me. stock lecture I have a pet hate in TB. That pet hate is named Folder Templates. In 150 folders I have two and only two that have folder templates. They are for two specific lists which don't set the reply address properly. There is nothing else for which folder templates can be used that can't be covered and even improved upon using Address Book templates. There are dangers in using Folder Templates that are not there when you use AB templates. The dangers are all complacency based and are at their worst in templates which use the %TO= macro. If, at the instant you start a new message you happen to be focused on the wrong folder, the message gets given the wrong address. This happens when you click a mailto without changing folders. The results vary from embarrassing to excruciating depending upon the content of the misdirected mail. BTW - another mistake in such templates is to use the construct %TO=[EMAIL PROTECTED] without a %TO='' before it. So any pre-existing addresses are retained. Back to the lecture: every time I say this, someone takes exception to something I've said with comments like 'danger' is a bit harsh or I've used Folder templates for ages and it's never gone wrong for me. Here's a fact for you: it goes wrong. That's why I'm writing this message yet again. It works exactly as designed and that design has a fundamental flaw. The flaw is that it places too much responsibility on the user to make sure that the addresses given on a new message are those intended. With address book templates, there is never a mistake of this kind. Replies are perfectly directed. New messages are a bit trickier. Instead of clicking to the folder then clicking for a new message, you have to click to the right of the new message button and select the list address from the favourites (having denoted that the address *is* a favourite in the address book). /stock lecture You have a TBUDL folder that has folder templates that are killing your ability to target a message to anywhere but the list from that folder. Please use AB templates for everything you possibly can. It will save facial egg removal issues every time. - -- Cheers -- .\\arck D.
