Upgrade by swaping executables (was: wide msag list cudos re-installation question)

I read also the other threads about installing v2.11., but I did not understand
one thing:
When you say install over do you mean to run the complete

What other files does the installation exe update?

Is there a reason not to just swap simply the executables, but to run
the installation exe?

I want to migrate from 2.10.01 to 2.11.02.

SM I've run the compleate maintenence on all folders in all accounts - it

 I noticed that TB runs faster after a defrag. I now use Diskeeper for
 degragging, as it is faster and finds more fragmented files that the
 built-in Windows defragger.

It's not long ago I ran Norton Speeddisk (a defragger).
But during the peaks there is no disc activity at all, actually
when
there is any disc activity it goes down.

It happens in all folders, in all of my 4 accounts. One have only
handled less than 100 mails.

 - check your temp folder for overload. TB! uses the temp folder when
 downloading messages and an overloaded temp folder will slow it down.

Empty - didn't help.

I think it is a regular bug, and not just the usual errors in the
mailbox files.
The problem has existed from I ran 2.11 the first time, and I have
never had any problems with 2.x. It would be too much of a coincidence
if 4 mailboxes should be damaged at the exact same time as I upgraded.
As far as I know the installation does not alter the mailbox files, and
no one else have had this problem

AJ This is my current favourite.  Despite my comments above, I originally

TF Try this: Create a new folder. Can be inthe same account.

TF Go to the troublesome Inbox. Mark all messages, and copy them to the

TF Close TB. Delete the messages.tbb and messages.tbi files in the Inbox'

Done.  Problem remains.  :-(

 At the end of the QT I omitted also the # at the end of the last code
 line.

Ah, yes I see now. I hadn't noticed that previously.

 What is this # good for?

The %If macro works like this:

%If:var1comparison operatorvar2:action if true:action if false

which is equivalent to

%If:var1comparison operatorvar2%-
:action if true%-
:action if false


However, if you have nested %If macros, you need to adjust the delimiters
(). So if you want to do another comparison operation if the first one
is false, you might end up with:

%If:var1comparison operatorvar2%-
:if true 1%-
:%If:'var1'comparison operator'var3':'if true 2':'if false 2'

Note that I have used one delimiter (') for the inner %If macro, and a
different one () for the outer.

More complex macro combinations can have multiple levels of delimiters
from nested %If, regex and other macros, requiring careful choice of
delimiters. Common ones are ,',^,#,_,$ although almost any character can
be used.

Now in the QT we are referring to, there is a %if macro statement that
starts

  %If:#%_SetLang###:##:#%-

It is checking to see if %_SetLang is blank, using # as the delimiter
(#%_SetLang###)

If %_SetLang is blank, nothing happens because the action if true is blank
(##)

If %_SetLang is not blank then the rest of the QT should get executed
(the end of the action if false is the last # of the QT, which you
deleted). Since it was the last character in the QT, I don't think it
will cause a problem, but it would be better to have it back in.

However, it would be better to have the # before the %- to remove the
blank line that will otherwise be there.

The reason I used # as the delimiter is because within the action if false
I had one regex and seven %If statements all separately using  and ' as
delimiters.

==

 What *exactly* does %-?

Put simply, it tells TB! to ignore a following new line (i.e. a blank line).
It will also mark the end of a macro if there might be ambiguity about
where the end is.

For example, above I wrote
   %If:var1comparison operatorvar2%-
   :action if true%-
   :action if false
as an alternative to having the %If statement on a single line. TB! sees
it as a single line because of the %- at the end of each line. The reason
I wrote it like that is because it is simpler to understand with the
three parts to the %If statement on three separate lines.

In addition, however, if I wanted to set the subject, from and to address
in a QT, I could put

   %subject=something
   %from=me [EMAIL PROTECTED]
   %to=you [EMAIL PROTECTED]

When TB! processed that, each line would affect the headers, BUT EACH
LINE WOULD ALSO LEAVE A BLANK LINE IN THE BODY OF THE EMAIL.

That is because TB! is very literal about the way it processes the
content of QTs. If the QT contains plain text, it simply gets written to
the place it is called from (the body of your message). If it contains a
mixture of macros and plain text, the macros get executed, and the plain
text gets copied to the body of your message.

Now TB! sees all the new lines as plain text. They are not part of the
macro, so they simply get written to the body of your message. If you
don't want that, you must tell TB! to ignore the new line by putting %-
immediately before it.

So if you write
   %subject=something%-
   %from=me [EMAIL PROTECTED]%-
   %to=you [EMAIL PROTECTED]%-
TB! ignores all those new lines and you don't get three blank lines in
the body of your message.

It's simple, but also confusing. I hope I have helped clear up some
confusion! ;-) -- No smiley icon there as far as I am concerned!!

C line.

That's isn't a very good idea. You'd better put it back.

C What is this # good for?

It's a delimiter, just like you can use  or '' to separate sections,
you can also use ##,  _ _ or .
In this case your first %if statement uses #, so it read
%if:#condition#:#then#:#else#
The else part was a whole lot of %if's and by omitting the last # you
confuse TB where to stop with your %if. It might go alright because
there's nothing relevant until the end of the QT, but as a matter of
principle you should always try to use a correct syntax.

C What *exactly* does %-?

It tells the editor to ignore the newline character immidiately behind
it. So the editor translates this:
I'm typing a $-
silly text.
to
I'm typing a silly text
In this example the %- macro has no real use, but in complex macros or
QT's it can enhance the readability by placing separate constructs on
a single line in stead of having everything on one single line.

C Where in the help file or where on the net can I read more about # and
C %- ?

The # part is explained in the 'main macros page' in the help.

Yes, it means running the complete installation.

Simply run the install. It will automatically update the old one.
Uninstalling and then reinstalling the newer version isn't necessary.

The bat and kapersky AV

Hi,

I use the bat 2.11.02. I want to use an anti-virus soft as plug in in the bat.

I wanted to use AVG but I thing free version doesn't offer the plug in. I had to

Thank you for taking the time to give such a detailed answer.
I found your explanations extremely clear and very helpful.

But now I happen to have the problem the other way around!!!
Lines disappear which should be there.

With my several levels of nested QT it seems that one of the QT
swallows lines of the others. But I could not determine where it comes
from:

What I do is still based on what you proposed in
mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] :
RA This would allow you to have:
RA* one SetLanguage QT,
RA* one master template for new messages
RA* one master template for replies
RA* one master template for forwarding
RA Then each language that you want to support would have a 3 'slave'
RA templates, one for new messages, one for replies and one for forwarding.

For the moment I have it working only for new messages.

In addition to your proposition I have a lang_parameters_XX QT in each language
where I set %Charset and %Language. I include these QTs in the three
'slave' templates instead of defining three times the same parameters.

Now comes the complicated part:
My signature is split into two of the above mentioned templates.
The cut mark and a 'Many greetings' line are in the language 'slaves'
(since this is language dependent). But my e-mail, URL, phone, etc. is
in the master template (because it is the same in all languages).
These two elements should be simply one beneath the other.
What happens is that the cut mark and the 'Many greetings' line are OK, but
below, the part coming from the master, misses its first row and
starts only with the 2nd row.

Here comes the code of the master template:

 [ master_new_message ]
%QInclude(SetLanguage)%-
%If:%_SetLang=AM:%QInclude(new_EN):%-
%If:%_SetLang=FR:%QInclude(new_FR):%-
%If:%_SetLang=DE:%QInclude(new_DE):%-
%If:%_SetLang=SK:%QInclude(new_SK):%-
%If:%_SetLang=CZ:%QInclude(new_SK):%-
%If:%_SetLang=RU:%QInclude(new_RU):%-

%If:%_SetLang=PL:%QInclude(new_PL):

mailto:%FROMADDR
http://www.mydomain.net
My address and my phone
 [ end of master_new_message ]

And this is the code of the language slaves:

 [ new_FR ]
Bonjour %CAPITALFIRST=%TOFName,
%QInclude(lang_parameters_FR)%-
Texte en français
%CURSOR

--
A bientôt,

Extending Trial Period

2004-06-07 Thread Stephan Forseilles
Is it possible to extend the trial period? Just for several hours, I
mean. :-)
 
I have bought TheBat online through a local reseller as advised on the
RITLabs website. What I didn't know is that all information (including,
I guess, serial number) is coming by mail. Now I fire TheBat, it takes
the mail from my account (in POP3, WITHOUT leaving it on server) and
then all I can do is close it as my trial period is over. 
 
So here I am with my Serial Number probably somewhere in my mailbox and
unable to read it because I cannot activate TheBat (to do this I need my
serial number which is... well you got it).
 
This 'after trial I take your mail but you can not read it'-thing might
be a good marketing weapon but it can be pesky at times. :-)
 
Or could RIT send me my number on another email address? I should be
able to provide a copy of my receipt, but it is in my mailbox. Ah-ah.

SF I have bought TheBat online through a local reseller as advised on the
SF RITLabs website. What I didn't know is that all information (including,

SF the mail from my account (in POP3, WITHOUT leaving it on server) and
SF then all I can do is close it as my trial period is over.

This is indeed a weird situation... Maybe you could get the key sent
to another address from your local reseller? They should have your

Or perhaps /cheating/ might work. Set your computer's clock back to

Repair Message Base doesn't work

2004-06-07 Thread DW Susan
Hi, everyone.

I'm using TB 2.11.02 on Windows ME.  I just upgraded from 2.0, hoping
the upgrade would solve this problem.  Unfortunately, it did not.

All of a sudden, I'm having a problem with one of my mailboxes.  Every
time I try to open an existing, already read email in the inbox for
this account, I get the message An error occurred while reading the
message base.  When I check the integrity/repair option in the Folder
Maintenance Centre, TB does its thing and tells me the folder has been
processed.  It gives me the following message:

   Messages recovered: 54, damaged parts (part.bin) saved: 0
   Processing finished. 1 folders processed

However, it hasn't repaired the problem.  I still can't access any of
the messages in this folder.

Any ideas on how to repair this folder's message base?  The TBB file
is 528k, but I haven't put any limits on the number of messages that
can be stored in this folder... nor have I ever purged it.

Thanks!

I agree, but I'm now not so sure I fully understand the chat feature.
(still playing catch-up with new features, and no longer have my test
machine for beta-testing).

I thought I read somewhere (release notes?) that the chat feature
could be used to watch a conversation (?)  Could this be used in
such a way as to create a virtual folder of *threads* to watch?  That
would be pretty cool, I think.

Currently, trying to do something like that is possible, but would

I would definitely use something that I could mark a *thread* to

 No time was wasted

(Note: not just to Thomas)

I don't understand why this argument keeps getting raised.  I know
that 9Val made this claim in the context of no *development* time was
wasted, but I think even in that context, a not insignificant time has
been allotted to smileys alone.

Without getting into the merits of smileys in general, or how Ritlabs
announced them, etc. one still cannot ignore the number of messages
devoted to a topic that some claim no time was wasted.

Every beta-tester that posts a question about smileys takes away time
from them posting about a bug that isn't fixed yet.

Every response to above takes away time from addressing bugs that
haven't been fixed.

Are we to believe that smiley development is still getting done on
personal time?  (remembering that this was part of an official
release)

I really don't want to debate smileys.  I can accept them as something
I simply won't use - and if it doesn't interfere with my use of TB, no
problem.  I realize some people don't use/need Virtual Folders or
IMAP.  OK.  I just don't understand/agree with the idea that smileys
don't take up any time.

Smileys appear to be a feature that's here to stay.  Let's treat them
that way.  It doesn't matter if a new feature somehow *developed
itself* and literally required ZERO development.  Once that feature is
introduced and released, it takes up resources.

I'd use the Virtual Folder I described earlier and manually move older

Not ideal, I know, but I don't know how well the automatic filtering
is working with IMAP right now.


Since you want to maintain folder structure, one thing you might do
with the Virtual Folder solution is to have the view in that VF show
the folder column (source folder).  You could then sort by folder and
move groups of messages to corresponding local folders.

Depending on the number of different source folders, this may get
tedious.  The other option is to create virtual folders for each local
folder you want to move to.  This would keep the grouping intact.

Hope this helps.

Allie Martin ([EMAIL PROTECTED]):

 How about a large office setting users are on an LAN and behind a
 proxy and cannot use the usual chat software. All in the office use
 TB!. Mail chat would work well there.

True, but you could use the same argument to justify an IRC client, a
download manager, almost anything. A chat is fundamentally different
from email in that it's immediate, while email is a deferred model
of communication. One reason I use email is that I have no use
whatsoever for chat. Written conversation is s-l-o-w, almost always a
waste of time, and is hard to schedule across time zones. In my
opinion, a chat feature is bloat, since there's so much (free) chat
software already available anyway. It certainly isn't something that
will persuade me to pay for an upgrade again.

- Hi, I'm looking for a mail client.

After not being able to send a message to RitLabs for support, a
member of this list graciously offered to forward my message to them.
That was on 6/4.  Today I received the following message.  Can anyone
explain this to me?  Does it mean they were trying to contact me or
did the message never reach them?

The original message was received at Thu, 3 Jun 2004 18:32:40 +0300
from ms-smtp-02-smtplb.ohiordc.rr.com [65.24.5.136]

... the reverse DNS for your domain specified a mail exchange
computer called ohmx-2.columbus.rr.com. When the RITlabs mail
exchanger attempted to connect back to it to verify its existence,
it failed. As a result, your message was rejected. This is a
standard method of protecting against connections from spamming
servers, which characteristically fail the rDNS connect back.

Re: Smileys? Mail Chat?? What's becoming of The Bat!?

 .. the same can apply for the emoticon issue. In fact the emoticon
 issue is more easily solved.

I have tried to figure it out, please tell.
The best I could come up with that don't involve any change in how TB
works as of 2.11.02 would be to add a footnote If you are using TB and
see emoticons, please take the following steps. IMO that is simply not
acceptable, by doing so I am implying to the receiver that if you are
not using TB you are a wrong-doer.

 You cannot influence how your messages will be rendered by the
 receiving client. That's up to the client and the users settings.

Which could lead to some very unfortunate misunderstandings that isn't
easily resolved even by reading the source of the e-mail.

 You can minimize problems but you can't totally eliminate them.

I can check and I can re-check, yes, but that's about all there is. It
would be nice if the program gave me some help with this, though. For
example, there could be a spellcheck-like function that looked for
smilies.

snip

 It can be disabled permanently or via a toggle switch (right click in
 the viewer and select 'Smileys'). If the user finds an emoticon
 strangely placed, as I do at times, (s)he simply toggles off the
 smileys. I've done this for a few messages already.

There's another thing that could be helpful... If you could attach (in
lack of any better words) the toggle to the address book. That way I
could tell you that I might very well send meaningful text that easily
could be shown as emoticons.

Alice laughed: There's no use trying, she said; one can't believe
impossible things. I daresay you haven't had much practice, said the
Queen. When I was younger, I always did it for half an hour a day. Why,
sometimes I've believed as many as six impossible things before
breakfast.

Re: charset in replies

   b./ the charset should be the default charset of the account.

This can break the charcter-encoding in the quoted text.

   But now I can not find this option any more.
   Anybody knows where it is?

TB! doesn't have such an option. You can set the charset in your
reply-template.

An ideal mail client would pick the appropriate charset itself.

lost key and checksum codes

2004-06-07 Thread David Boggon

After trying to upgrade to v2.11.02 from v2.11 TB started playing up,
so I've gone back to v2.11

Trouble is my registration details have been re-set, and TB is telling
me I'm on a trial period.

I've lost my archived message telling me the new key and key checksum
codes for v2.??(I think due to losing archived messages through TB
IMAP filtering problems), and my hard copy is on the other side of the
world.

Is anyone aware how to get these codes back electronically, either
from RitLabs or from my hard drive?

with thanks,

Re: Repair Message Base doesn't work

Hello DW,

On Mon, 7 Jun 2004 13:58:56 -0700 you [DS] typed:

[...]
DSMessages recovered: 54, damaged parts (part.bin) saved: 0
DSProcessing finished. 1 folders processed

DS However, it hasn't repaired the problem.  I still can't access any of
DS the messages in this folder.

DS Any ideas on how to repair this folder's message base?

I had a similar problem with one of my IMAP folders and resolved it by
simply removing the .tbb file you mentioned. I wouldn't want to delete
the .tbb file for a local folder, though.

2004-06-07 Thread hasan
Hi all,

The problem i have is that as my thread for message gets longer, the
size of the message keeps getting bigger. After about 4 replies, the bat
has problems opening it. Its keeps getting bigger cause there are a
million blank  lines between replies and within the reply text. Is there
a solution?

Hope there is, cause I am really tired of this.

Using bat 2.10.

 

 regards,

 Hasan
