665.0. "Hidden Addresses" by HOTAIR::SAUER () Mon May 11 1992 18:08

    One of my customers is developing a "Suggestion Box" application and
    wants to allow suggestions to be anonymous.  We want to suppress the 2
    lines of the From: in the message header as it is printed by the MAIL
    READ function.  
    
    We have modified the boilerplate to suppress this info but I still
    appears.  We need the From: address to send a reply, we just dont want
    it to display in the header.  
    
    I'm open to any suggestions on how to accomplish this.

665.1Maybe I can help.HOTAIR::MADDOXWhen in doubt, change itMon May 11 1992 18:4516
Steve,

I built a suggestion box application back when I was a customer.  We didn't
concern ourselves with anonimity (sp?), but I may be able to offer a few 
hints anyway.  Since were in the same office, why don't you drop by my desk 
the next time you're in.

With respect to the address showing up durring the read after you removed 
it from the template, I don't think that is possible.  I would suggest 
that perhaps the read is not invoking the modified template.  If you have 
not moved the template to live, did you remember to modify the search 
order so the development area text elements would be found?  Which 
template did you modify?  How are you displaying the suggestion, from 
what menu?

665.2Process is correctSHALOT::NICODEMWho told you I'm paranoid???Tue May 12 1992 14:336
	Not only the search order, but do you (most likely) have the mail
templates built into the .TXL?  Try setting OA$TXL_SEARCH_LAST to a 1 and see
if that works.  What you're doing is correct; I just don't think you're calling
the modified template.

    Thanks for the suggestions.  I haven't tried setting OA$TXL_SEARCH_LAST
    to 1 yet.  I'll give it a try.
