Stationery Templates are very useful for sending standard messages, or including specified information in messages. They also allow you to include a number of macros for the most commonly required fields in your replies.
Stationery will be always be offered for new messages or replies if so configured under the Editing Preferences.
Stationery can also be added or replaced whilst composing a message, from the Message menu, but NOTE that this will delete all existing text.
To access the Edit Stationery dialog use Configure 
Edit Stationery.
Click on a HotSpot on the image below for further information.
Note that there will be a "Request for Technical Support" (see Technical Support) template installed, which includes the information Intervations needs to deal with any problems you may encounter.
The Macros button gives access to a menu of macros, which will insert information into the stationery being edited.
Although in clear text on the menu, they will be inserted in a slightly cryptic form, as shown above. This is so that MailCOPA will be able to interpret them when loading stationery, but also because two are configurable, Current Date and Date Message Sent (Short).
The stationery above would produce the following result with a reply (note it includes a couple of Commands):
Available options are for formatting these dates are:
| • | d Day of month as digits with no leading zero for single-digit days - eg 1, 2, ... 11, ... 15. |
| • | dd Day of month as digits with leading zero for single-digit days - eg 01, 02, ... 11, ... 15. |
| • | ddd Day of week as a three-letter abbreviation - eg Mon, Tue ... Exactly what is displayed depends on how your computer's locale is set. |
| • | dddd Day of week as its full name - eg Monday, Tuesday ... Exactly what is displayed depends on how your computer's locale is set. |
| • | M Month as digits with no leading zero for single-digit months - eg 1, 2, ... 11, 12. |
| • | MM Month as digits with leading zero for single-digit months - eg 01, 02, ... 11, 12 |
| • | MMM Month as a three-letter abbreviation - eg Jan, Feb, ... Nov, Dec. Exactly what is displayed depends on how your computer's locale is set. |
| • | MMMM Month as its full name - eg January, February, ... November, December. Exactly what is displayed depends on how your computer's locale is set. |
| • | y Year as last two digits, but with no leading zero for years less than 10 - eg 8, 9, ... 12, 15. |
| • | yy Year as last two digits, but with leading zero for years less than 10 - eg 08, 09, ... 12, 15. |
| • | yyyy Year represented by full four digits - eg 2008, 2009, 2212. |
| • | Anything included in single quotes will be quoted directly. |
These are more powerful than the macros, and enable you to do such things as set the subject of a message, add a BCC address, set the signature.
