Is there any good way to have email templates for emails I send a lot in outlook? I find myself typing the same answers over and over again (like how to send in payment).

Sophia,

I like autohotkey for some canned email responses I use. Lifehacker.com has a few good short tutorials on scripts.

Sophia, you could create an email template with the answer and blanks to be filled in, and save it in your Drafts folder in Outlook. I have approximately ten bazillion of them.

Do you know if this counts against my server space? I get daily emails that I need to delete some of my email. I seem to only be able to keep about 50 messages without archiving them?

Yeah, it would. Hm. Can you create a Drafts folder in your archived messages and keep them there?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

My standard Outlook template hack is to save the text I need as a signature file so I can insert it from the toolbar.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

If IE 6.0 reports a Javascript error at, say, "line 7 char 2", what line is it counting from? The first line of javascript? the <script language="javascript">? First line of HTML?

Does "char 2" mean the second character of the line?

I use a text editor called Editplus and it's been my experience that "Line" is the first line in the file. Therefore, if it's javascript in a html file, then line one is the !DOCTYPE (or <html> if you have no doctype). "Char" refers to the individual characters, so line 1 char 2 of !DOCTYPE is the "D". For <html> it would be the "h".
