Richard Skelly
I love this extension, my work recently changed the software we use to communicate with our customers, the process for retrieving and adding canned responses is ridiculously clumsy and involves going through multiple clicks to get to the specific sub folder where the response is saved, its such a slow process! Thanks Ali Khallad for making this, makes work life that little bit more bearable.

Awesome—But would love a way to export and import responses for my records. And a way to do a quick instant search when the number of canned responses get to let's say over 20.
