Using a template to send email messages

Is it possible to use a template when sending email messages with Entourage
2004?

No, not included with Entourage at any rate. However, you can use Notes
combined with Barry Wainwright's "Insert Notes" script to automate
"boilerplate" text insertion.

There is also Paul Berkowitz's "Message Template" script that can be used to
create your own templates and create new e-mails from them.

You can get both scripts here:
<http://www.scriptbuilders.net/>

Some users choose to save templates as drafts and then duplicate those
drafts, and edit & send them.

Yet others use templates in Word and send those using Entourage, but that's
probably more work than it's worth for just sending messages.

Another script also found at scriptbuilders:

"Open Template" by Bryan Harris.
Presents a list of templates stored in a folder called "TEMPLATES", and then
opens a new message based on the selected template. Very easy to use, can be
assigned a keyboard shortcut.
