[MlMt] Create replies from templates

[Martin Guddat]

For other tasks I am already using KeyBoard Maestro but I was hoping for 
a solution that uses the data already available in the mail. Or maybe I 
just overlook the methods to interface name, mailaddress etc. with an 
external program?

Regards
Martin
