I mention her that I loathe the FW and forward message sign that Entourge inserts to message. So someone here told me to do a redirect.
But then I notice if you do that you cannot edit the text, right?

I want to send new people same message, cross our old name, insert, new name, and would love not to have to always delete out the tell tell FW and forward messge.

Have you tried copy/paste? You can paste the text into a new message and
edit it there.

If I understand you correctly, you want to be able to forward a message
that you have received but send it as if it were coming from you. Correct?

I know of no mail application that behaves this way. When you forward a
message the "Fw:" designation is a courtesy to the recipient. Why are
you concerned with your recipient knowing you're forwarding information?

I'ts like BCC, the forward symbol is an insult to a business -- it shows you are doing in essence a copy paste from an older used email. How can I get rid of it?

Did you try copy/paste? There are no quote symbols.

Ah, so the problem is that you're simply wanting to *resend* a message
but to a different person. And this message is one that you yourself
have already sent?

Select your message in the Sent Items folder and choose Message menu -->
Resend. You can replace the original recipient with the new recipient
and go. If you're afraid of sending the message to the original
recipient again then just send it to yourself the first time.

Hope this helps!
