In previous versions of MLK when I selected "New Email" from the I was able to select for a template or pre-created email templates I created and saved.

I'm not see how to do that in the current version. Can you assist?

I was .1 version off, up to date now.

Got it for stationary, but those are the defaults. Guess I wasn't asking the right question.

I created several template messages standard text I created with signatures and footers. There were a couple of buttons I used to get there. Something like Open and Open Previous. As I recall it was New Mail/Open/Previous or Recently Sent.

I found a way to do it, but it's not that efficient.
Select groups to send to/New Mail/Click on the small icon above Send/Open/Search for the template. On the left I can see Recent Messages, but those are messages I sent using the template, not my template messages.

If there's another easier way I haven't found it yet.

My request would be for adding a new button option as a drop down under New Email for Saved Templates. This would point to a directory where I store my templates.

Something to consider... I run 5 instances of MLK my MLK servers. Would the pointer to the template directory be common to all? Or unique to the instance?

For me I think I would prefer on common one to make backing up easier.

Hi Doug

As in the previous version, at the list of recent messages will show you messages you have sent, followed by files that you open. So IOW your recently opened template files shoudl be at the bottom of that list.

If all your five instances are sharing the same settings (File > Options, Database, Each Database has unique settings) then each instance should share the same list of templates (assuming they are located in a shared folder).
