This is not expected behavior Works as designed. Your expectations are wrong. That's why I said it was dangerous. Over the years people stumbled over this feature. It has happened that they sent financial data to the list by accident. Just because they didn't realize that a folder template that defines the addressee will always do so when you create a message while that folder is selected. The only time when your message won't be addressed to the folder template defined addressee is when you select an address that has a new message template defined in the address book, either in the group properties or the personal properties. RG> confirm anyone? Sure. Has been thus in v1, v2 and v3. Oh. There is a way to prevent your folder template to overrule entered addresses. That's by building a condition in the template that checks whether there's an addressee given before the folder addressee is entered. Something like this: %If:_%ToList_<>__:_%To=''%To='"Name Addressee" <Address-addressee>'_:%- If my memory serves me well we created something like this in a discussion on one of the tblists, probably on tbudl or tbtech as it isn't a real beta issue. You might check the archives as it might be somewhat more sophisticated than what I dropped here and now. -- Groetjes, Roelof Luxury: Costs $7.69 to make and $20.00 to market. http://www.voormijalleen.nl/ The Bat! 3.99.8 Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 2 2 pop3 accounts OTFE enabled P4 3GHz 2 GB RAM
