[MlMt] Automating some emails

[Joshua Kehn]

For what it sounds like you're doing MailMate might not be the best 
option for you. Help desk / ticketing software might be a better option. 
See FogBugz / Zendesk / etc. FogBugz I know offers easy snippets that 
you can customize. Makes blasting similar responses out simple.

Best,

-Josh
