As you've noted elsewhere, that isn't the case, but as has also been noted, %Quotes drops everything after the last cut mark. I use the following reply template to mimic the way that MS Outlook replies. ============Reply Template (MS style)=========================== %Subject="Re: %QInclude(CleanSubject)"%- %QInclude(Greet_All_Recipients) %Cursor Robin -- %Qinclude(BusinessSig) -------Original Message -------- From : %OFromName <%OFromAddr> To : %OToList Subject: %QInclude(CleanSubject) Date : %QInclude(YourDate) at %QInclude(YourTime) %TEXT ================================================================ Obviously there are a couple of my personal QTs in that, but I'm sure you could edit to suit your tastes. -- Robin Anson Using The Bat! v2.04.7 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 1 ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.04.7 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
