You are right, I may have not been to clear...
My immediate question involves me wanting to put an e-mail adres (containing an
@) and some indicators (with ':') in 'message_footer'.
Using them plain-vanilla results in no footer shown at all, using them by
putting a '\' in front of them results in "\@" and "\:" showing up in the
footer...
I figured putting an e-mail address in the message_footer shouldn't be to
hard...
Or is it?
Thanks for your help,
Frans
