   Oh. I didn't note that, thanks and sorry. I never heard of QWK networks, QWK   
   is a point to point protocol between a BBS and an offline user. It takes a   
   snapshot of new unread messages from the BBS msgbase and pack it into the QWK   
   file. Due to the limitations i don't think that the QWK format is suitable for   
   message base requirements. But maybe the QWK thing you are talking about is   
   totally different.

   No. There is a way. The random system is just the default auto-fill but can be   
   edited by cursor up too. Some keywords can be used many times, like origin and   
   aka, there is a change function and you can select from a list to use one.   
   I never tried, but i think USERNAME can be defined many times too.

   Yupp, that's common procedure. The random system of golded just adds some kind   
   of lazyness. ;) Together with templates you could have random mail   
   introduction lines or footers too.
