There are two things we want to do with a template: Edit them, use them as a base for a new email

EDITION should allow us to open a template, change things and save it at the SAME place with the SAME name USE should create a new email ready to be sent out after modification and pressing send.

Any way to achieve this without a whole bunch of acrobatic file movements? ;) Thanks!

File|Save As|Template and then delete the previous version is "acrobatic"?

kind of.

I have about 70 templates in different structured folders inside /templates /templates/clients/ /templates/suppliers/ /templates/prospects/ /templates/maintenance/ ...

File|Save As|Template saves at the root of the structure. in /templates/

So I need to go to the /templates/ and move it back to the right folder.

On my computer and all the ones I know, when I EDIT a file and I SAVE it, it saves the file exactly at the same place then the original... it does not place it at the root of my drive. ;)

Thanks

Gosh.

That is an unusually intensive use of templates. I wonder if the developers anticipated such a multi-layered store? I can see it doesn't work well for you.

You make me grateful that my life doesn't require me to be as repetitive as yours does. All of my emails are hand-crafted and unique; I rarely meet the need to use packaged responses.

But even if I did not have this intensive structure and kept it flat...

Saving a template should overwrite the template I just open, not duplicate it.
