I was making reference to using it for replies. If you wish to
adjust the To headers for your list replies then you'll need to use
the %To macro. Note the format of the To: address for this message.
It's "Paul Cartwright on TBUDL" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. The only
way to produce this is to use the %To macro, as described in the
article, in my address book reply template for this list.

Yes. I don't use a %To macro for new messages as well since I use
the address book.

In your address book templates for TBOT. Use the %Account="" macro
to auto-switch the active account for messages to TBOT. It now
doesn't matter which account is in focus.
