    3. Hi Sylvia: To make a Stationery (actually a form letter to use over and over), open up Stationery. There are three ways to open it. One is to click on Tools in the Menu Bar, then click on Stationery; the second way is to Right-Click on the Icon Bar and choose Customize, on the left side of the resulting window, click Tools, then on the right side click on the 5th icon from the left, top row, and drag that icon to your Icon Bar; the third way is to "dock" the "Tools" window to the left of your main window, so as to have all the tools available all the time -- you can size the docked window to take up little space. Once you have the Stationery tool showing, Right-Click anywhere in it and choose "New". What you type in the resulting email will be what is sent automatically if you choose it. For instance, I have Stationeries set up to sub and unsub users from all 13 of the Lists I manage, which means 26 Stationeries, 1 each for the -L mode and 1 each for the -D mode. Plus, I also have them set up to get lists of subscribers for each of the 13 Lists. You could make one for notification to eBay buyers, leaving the TO: header blank and type in, or paste in, the address before sending. Once you've made the Stationery, you will need to save it; when you choose "Save", the "Stationery subdirectory of Eudora will open. Type in a good description for the name. Hint: if you want that Stationery to show up at the top of the list, put a ! or # in front of the name. If you need help, I will be happy to do what I can. You can have as many Stationeries as you want. I have over 50 of them. Once you do the first one, you can experiment with others to get the hang of it. Once you have them made, open the Stationery tool and double-click whichever one you want. That will pop up a window showing the already filled-in email. Make any changes or additions and click Queue. I can send out 26 emails to get subscriber lists in a little over 1 minute. Forgot to say that when making the Stationery, you can choose the FROM: (sender) address you want to use, where you have more than one email address; you can choose whatever signature you want to use, whichever files you want to attach, etc. Hope this helps, SgtGeorge At 02/05/2002 11:18 AM Tuesday, Sylvia Gould wrote: *********START OF ORIGINAL MESSAGE TEXT********* >Do I understand this correctly?
