I followed the instructions listed in help menu of the Tech Mail to set up 
a custom header and it did not work. When openinh new message window 
nothing was shown in the header box and after sending the message to myself 
I found no header printed in the message body. Am I doing it right or you 
think there is sth wrong with the software?
And als some comments about TechMail. I Like the program very much, but 
have some other problems with it. I would like to call up some form letters 
when sending mail (to various vendors delivering journals to MIT) and have 
a problem setting up such draft texts. The operation with inserting the 
text into the new message body is a bit cumbersome - I need to remember 
exactly where I saved the draft and call up the whole pathname of the draft 
file, and even after that the text shows up with some illegible additions, 
which I have to delete. Would it be possible to do it in a simpler way?
Thanks for your help.
