I confused things when I used the term, "standard letter". By that I meant a
letter I sent to all EMAIL recipients in a group. NOT an MS Word letter that
might be printed up and delivered.
I'm asking about Outlook templates, only. And I can't seem to use the one I
created. Sorry for the inexact language.

It is in fact there when i browse for a template when sending email. But
it's
not there when I try to create a standard letter.
The terminology, I'm afraid, is confusing me. I created the template, I
thought, and it shows up when I look at the list of possible templates
along
with the shipping templates.
But when I try to use it in a form letter, it ain't there.

While you could publish it, not all templates work well as published
forms.
you can find the template and copy to a folder in Outlook- I use a folder
called Templates. The one you saved should be at
%appdata%\Microsoft\templates.

Diane Poremsky,
Thanks for replying. I saved it. I don't believe there was an option
for
publishing. I must have missed it if there was one.
Can I publish it now? It shows in the list of templates, just not when
I
try
to retrieve it as a template for the standard email I'm trying to send.
Don.

The default "templates" are actually published forms.
Did you save your template to the hard drive or publish it?

I created a standard reply in a template in Outlook.
Now, I need to create a rule to send that template reply to all
people
who
have used certain words in their emails to me.
However, the template does not appear in any folder I have tried.
Even
the
default folder has only one template, "mail". Where has Outlook put
my
template, do you suppose? A search has not revealed it, presumably
because
templates are not actually files.
For that matter, how is it that no other (i.e., the shipping
templates)
show
up when I look for the template where it defaults to?
Thanks.
Don.
