I'd also like to add that there are two aspects about quick templates
that you may not realize. For each quick template, you can define a
handle-name (qt handle) and then to apply it to a message, instead of
going through the menus, you may simply type <qthandle><CTRL><SpaceBar>.
Additionally, instead of highlighting the old template, you may also use
the %CLEAR macro in your quick template. What this will do is erase
everything in the message body and then apply the quick template.
So for example, I've personally defined a template for software tech
support with the handle name 'ts'. Whenever I wish to send a message for
tech support, I click on the browser mailto: link which will generate a
message addressed to tech support. I then type in the message body
'ts<CTRL><SpaceBar>' where the default template is completely erased and
replaced with the tech support one automagically. :-)
