Bad idea. Using a custom form as the default for outgoing mail pretty much guarantees that any non-Outlook recipients won't get attachments you send them.

Maybe you need to revisit the functionality designed into this form and explore other implementations.

I have created a custom email template (this is for all outbound emails),
saved it as an OFT file (Outlook template) then published it as a custom form
to a Public Folder. How can I make this template/form the default for ALL
outbound emails, so when the user clicks the "New" icon, the message box
comes up using the custom template?

Again this is for SENDING outbound emails, not posting to a folder.

Many thanks in advance!
