Thank you for promulgating the newlfm.cls letter/fax/memo class. I am
gearing up to use it in my daily work, and am also using it to try to
improve my LaTeX and (nearly-nonexistent) TeX skills.
I am having the following problem in the "Regarding" section, which I
believe is due to a bug.
In the attached testmemo.tex file, when I use the option "stdletter",
the "Regarding" line prints out "Testing"; however, when I use the
option "stdmemo", the "Re" line prints out "---BLANK---". As near
as I can tell, the @re@line variable is not being set correctly, but
with my basic and rudimentary TeX skills, I'm at a loss to figure out how.
Attached are extracd.tex, letrinfo.tex, and my test case,
testmemo.tex. I am using newlfm v 8.3, downloaded this past week from
CTAN.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks again.

Dear Dr. Thompson,
I have just begun using your newlfm package and have already found it
highly useful. Thank you very much for making it available to us.
I am writing today to inform you that newlfm may have a minor bug. The
newlfm that I am using is of version "2004/11/02 v8.3". It seems that
this version ignores the memonoto, memonofrom, and memono
options. Looking at the code of newlfm, I think that "true" in lines
513, 515, and 517 should be replaced with "false".
513: \DeclareOption{memonofrom} {\setboolean{@memo@e}{true}}%
^^^^
514: \define@key{ov}{memonofrom}[true]{\iffixt{#1}{@memo@e}}%
515: \DeclareOption{memonoto} {\setboolean{@memo@g}{true}}%
^^^^
516: \define@key{ov}{memonoto}[true]{\iffixt{#1}{@memo@g}}%
517: \DeclareOption{memonore} {\setboolean{@memo@f}{true}}%
^^^^
518: \define@key{ov}{memonore}[true]{\iffixt{#1}{@memo@f}}%
Thanks again for your offering the wonderful newlfm.

I just started using 2004/11/02 v8.3 of newlfm. Nice job!
I'm having a small problem though. I have specified a custom header
with graphics and that is working properly. If I try to specify the
Blankheader option to turn it off, the file fails to format and I get
an error. I have a feeling that I'm not specifying this option
properly and I couldn't find it in any of your examples.
How do I invoke this option?
Thanks,
