For the Date I specify the following - Date:formatfield="On %(putstr(weekday{text})), %(putstr(lmonth{text})) \ %02(putnumf(mday{text}))th, 19%02(putnumf(year{text})), at \ %02(putnumf(hour{text})):%02(putnumf(min{text}))h %(putstr(tzone{text})),",nocomponent which works fine, except a blank line is inserted in the text before the next line. How do I get the next line of text to immediately follow the line on which the date information has been written? I would also like to add some text to the following fields - Message-Id:formatfield="in message %(putstr{text}),",nocomponent Subject:formatfield="on the subject of %(putstr{text}) you write ",nocomponent However, whatever I put in the formatfield for these items is ignored. Is this a bug, or am I doing something wrong? Your assitance is greatly appreciated.
