Re: Thunderbird Templates [was Re: Eudora vs. Thunderbird?]

Hi Jay,

Thanks again for the info.

There doesn't seem to be a "Reply with..." option like Eudora has.
However, I did do a quick search on the Mozilla Extensions site and
there was at least one that does work more like the Eudora Stationary
feature. So, if people really need that feature (I know many people who
do), then there is an alternative in the Thunderbird world.
