Default email template
Is it possible to set it up so that when you click on "New" for a new mail
message it uses a template / form rather than the default blank email? Regards, Noel

It's technically possible, but practically a very bad idea. What's your goal in considering that option?

Default email template
The code sample that Hollis suggested is not related to your scenario. It's appropriate only for non-message folders.

Default email template
Hi Sue,
the idea is that we have a form which we install on users machines which is used as their email template. Currently we have a button on one of the tool bars (either a link or a macro to run the form) which the user clicks to open it. I was just wondering if it would be possible to use this form using the 'new message' button, removing the need to put buttons in the tool bar. Noel "Sue Mosher [MVP-Outlook]" wrote in message ...

Default email template
As I said earlier in this thread, using a published custom form as the default form is a bad idea. What are you hopting to accomplish with it?

Sue, we have the same need. Our attorney's office wants CONFIDENTIAL in red
to be displayed in the top of the body of every email. They don't want to go get a template for that for every email. If we build it into their signature they have to delete the 2 blank lines that precede CONFIDENTIAL. Thanks!

Default email template
Either use a signature or add the stamp at the server. Or even put an ugly red graphic in some stationery. But don't use a custom form.

Thank you! If it's possible to add the stamp at the server for just certain
employees can you direct me to the instructions? "Sue Mosher [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: Either use a signature or add the stamp at the server. Or even put an ugly red graphic in some stationery.
