Yes. But that leaves me out of ideas :-(

What I mean is this: Some people - like our own good Allie - uses initials in
their address-name. And so, using a %OFROMFNAME-macro results in something like
this: "On (date) A. wrote on (subject):". I was merely trying to find a general
solution for this - and it seems that this shall be my occasion for a journey
into the dark world of macros and RegEx's :-)
