Fair  enough  point  although I haven't seen any unusable sigs created

It would be nice if the account info was held in some type of
editable file like an INI or DB that Excel could open and save. That way
you could globally search and replace the line from Y to N...

Exactly, but where would I be supposed to put this? That would be some

templates?!

Wow, now I get a first idea what all this might be about!! So you mean
you  can  specify  what  parts of a received message the mailer should
quote when writing a reply. Or what parts of a message should be shown
in  some special style (like red and bold ;) when viewing the message.
SO.

Does  anyone  have  an  idea how I could get The Bat! to show me lines
starting  with  "Iquotedis:"  (or  whatever)  as quotes in the message
viewer? Again, I mean, using the red and bold style.

Anyway, what is %REGEXPTEXT for? Or is it just complementary?

When  I  was  a  programmer, I used regular expressions for search and

understand  how  regexps can be applied to inserting quoted text. That
is  why  I  need  documentation  about  that,  or at least any working

Hm.  Nice.  ;)  I  think those are good examples of how to use regular
expressions...  but  since  hearing  about them in The Bat!, I've been
thinking  about  what exactly to do with them. I don't usually receive
mail that is so very standardized that I could use regular expressions
to  filter  the quotation... Ok, you might say, just don't use them. I
was  just  wondering...  I  know  you can do a LOT of nice things with
regexps, so I'd really like to use them in some way ;)

They  do  work  faster. I have some folders containing several hundred

Well,  I know something about regular expressions and I'd sure like to
use them (actually got them to work in the inbox filters), but I still
can't imagine what exactly these macros might be for.
