I take it you mean some contacts you reply to from account A, some from account B, and some from account C - the factor dictating which of your accounts to use being who the reply is going to, right? Possibly the simplest way to achieve this would be to change your incoming filters so that mail from contacts needing a reply from account A go to folders under account A, those you will reply to from account B go to folders under account B, those you reply to from account C go to folders under account C. That way, when you open a reply it will be from the correct account. Or you could use address book groups - one for "account A contacts," one for "account B contacts," and one for "account C contacts." Assign each contact to the relevant group. Use an address book group template for each group that dictates which account is used. Or you could use the %IF macro, as you suggest. One way would be to store in each address book entry the account you will use to email that contact. There is no actual AB field for this, so you would use a field that is otherwise blank - for example you might use the "business pager" field. For each contact, put in that field, for example, "account B" (without quotes). Then you could use the %IF macro as follows (all on one line):- %IF:"%ABtoBusPager"="A":%ACCOUNT="Account A":%IF:"%ABtoBusPager"="B":%ACCOUNT="Account B":%IF:"%ABtoBusPager"="C":%ACCOUNT="Account C":""%- Or if you only wanted to specify for accounts B and C, using account A as the default:- %IF:"%ABtoBusPager"="B":%ACCOUNT="Account B":%IF:"%ABtoBusPager"="C":%ACCOUNT="Account C":%ACCOUNT="Account A"%- > One could store all the email id's or even better, the > domain name that has to go under A and similarly to B & > C or only to store for B & C account so that once the > REPLY button is hit, TB identifies under which account > that this message has to be replied.

Why not use the built-in menu function for this?
