Re: Difference between threaded by subject and reference
Hello Chris, I would prefer you reply to me on the list and not by PM. Manual re-threading was introduced in beta 3.0.9.6 (we are currently testing 3.0.9.17) and it works. Although, as I have written in the beta list, I personally don't like or agree with the way they have implemented it. How has it been implemented? What don't you like? Perhaps it can be changed before it is released if a better solution is provided. I explained all of this in a long message in the TBBeta list on 22-March-2005. If you are interested, you can look in the TBBeta archives for Message-ID: [EMAIL PROTECTED] with Subject Some thoughts about Threading, manual re-threading, etc. -- Best regards, Miguel A.

Problem with the %CLEAR macro
Hello all, I posted this same message a few days ago in TBTech but I haven't had any reply yet. So, I'm going to try here to see if I have better luck. -- Original message -- Let me start by saying that I have looked in the archives and wasn't able to find anything. I am working on two QTs that I will here call QT1 and QT2 that try to do the following when I reply to a message: - QT1 checks for some condition that, if met, QINCLUDEs QT2. - QT2 does a %CLEAR and then INCLUDES a .txt file that may in turn be another QT or just plain text. Here is the problem: - If I reply to a message and on the reply I type QT1Ctrl+Space everything works as it should and %CLEAR does its job clearing quoted text, signature and everything. - However, if in my reply template I do a %QUINCLUDE=QT1 at the end, when I reply to a message the %CLEAR macro in QT2 doesn't clear the quoted text, etc., at all or doesn't do it completely (i.e. clears quoted text but not signature). It looks like if there was a timing or execution priorities problem when doing several and cascading QINCLUDES from the reply template itself. Does anybody have a hint of what may be the problem? Or am I being thick and sleepy again? TIA. -- Best regards, Miguel A.

Re: '...The Bat!\MAIL\ is not a Basic Mail Directory'?
Hello Marck, The option to change the directory requires you to specify a directory not currently in use for MAIL. You would have been better advised to use the built-in backup utility before reinstalling and then taken the option to restore when loading TB for the first time. We must be using different TBs :) It just happens that yesterday I had to re-install TB twice due to problems in my C drive. I had backed up the MAIL directory (on D drive) just by copying it to a different PC. When reinstalling after a reformat of my C drive I set the mail directory to D:\The Bat!\MAIL (I try to keep al my data on D for easier backup) and when creating the first account I was surprised to see that TB. when finding and existing directory within MAIL with the same name as the account, it just used it with everything there was in it: account configuration, all mail folders and messages (even those that were unread before the crash were still marked as unread), templates, everything. I didn't have to restore anything from anywhere. Quite nice :) -- Best regards, Miguel A.

Re: Message formating
Hello Melissa, Of course, in addition to a sender's wrap setting, what wraps and doesn't wrap in the preview pane depends on the size of font you choose to display messages with...and also on your screen size/resolution.

If I get a message with long lines, that don't fit in the width of my preview pane, a scroll bar is displayed at the bottom but no strange wrappings. -- Best regards, Miguel A.

Setting language automatically in replies
Hello all, Krister Ekstrom in mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] gave me the idea of setting the language automatically in replies based on the language of the original message. This method is only valid if your are using POPFile for spam detection, like I am. Because I mainly correspond in English and Spanish, I have changed my POPFile from two buckets, 'spam' and 'real', to three: 'eng', 'esp' and 'spam'. I have reset statistics, re-trained it with some 400 existing messages and, for the moment, it is running at 100% accuracy. Obviously, I have POPFile set to include the X-Text-Classification: header in classified messages. In TB I have created the following QT: ,- [ SLANG ] | %IF:%SETPATTREGEXP='(?im-s)^(X-Text-Classification)\:\s*(.*)$'%- | %REGEXPBLINDMATCH='%HEADERS'%- | %SUBPATT='2'=eng:%LANGUAGE='BR':%LANGUAGE='SP' `- And in all my reply templates I have included it right after %Cursor: ,- [ ] | %Cursor%QINCLUDE=SLANG%- `- And it works!!!

Hello Thomas, You seem to know a lot of work-arounds for someone who is against adding a feature for TB to edit incoming messages directly. ;-) Did I say I am against adding the feature? Yes, maybe I know about those work-arounds because of other needs. I use the export/edit/import somewhat frequently with my manual re-threading button and I know what can be done when Re-directing because every month, when I send one of my newsletters, I get a % of bounces due to temporary errors and I redirect those a couple of days latter. -- Best regards, Miguel A.

Hello Marck, There's your problem. Do this instead.

Re: Stupid problem with quoted names
Hello Marck, Well, the only way to avoid that is to use a RegEx to decide whether the name contains any special characters and deal with it accordingly. I'd say this is a TBTECH issue though, since double quoting a name every time is no problem and is what I do anyway. You are right, TBTECH would be the place to go. But no, I'll take the easy path and use the template quoting every name. Thanks. -- Best regards, Miguel A.

Re: A way to modify _incoming_ mail
Hello Thomas, Did I say I am against adding the feature? I checked and you didn't really say that. Comments as in mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] made me believe you were against the feature; No, the fact that I never thought about modigying the subject of an incoming message, and that I don't understand the need to do so, doesn't mean I'm against the feature.

Re: Stupid problem with quoted names
Hello Sergey, I think the problem with comma after Blow and when you put the name in quotation marks the program recognizes prefix Jr as a part of name. Otherwise prefix Jr seems like a part of the e-mail address. My thoughts. Yes, I know the problem comes because of the comma, but still I don't understand why TB strips the quotation marks. -- Best regards, Miguel A.

Re: threading does not work
Hello Roman, snipped quite a bit This is one of the very few points in which I think TB can be greatly improved. I hope the developers are getting this. It is not a problem in TB. Threading by reference, as some one else has already said, uses the References: header line (that is why is called threading by _reference_) and also the In-Reply-To: line. There are some e-mail clients that do no include these header lines as default (or not at all) and so TB has no way of finding out to which message (Message-ID) someone replied to. -- Best regards, Miguel A.

Hello Peter, I noticed that there are some folks who have recommended and used MACROS that are not in the templates editor. Is there a list of all available Macros that one can get? Thanks. Yes, go to HELP. Select Index, type Macros and then select Full alphabetic list of macros -- Best regards, Miguel A.

Hello Paul, These are the actions in your filter: Actions: faMarkRead,faNewMsg,faExport,faoExportOver,faoExportKludges, faoManualOnly,faoHotKey,faoSaveUnix And these are the ones in mine: ,- [ ] | Actions: | faMarkRead,faNewMsg,faExport,faoExportOver,faoExportKludges, | faoManualOnly,faoScrSaverOff,faoHotKey,faoHKCheckMsg,faoSaveUnix `- As you can see there are two differences: faoScrSaverOff - In the Advanced tab I have Screen saver must be Inactive. I never use a screen saver. faoHKCheckMsg - This one may be may important. On the Options tab, right below the HotKey combination, I have the box for Check the selected message against this rule set, selected, ticked, while your filters seems to have this not ticked. -- Best regards, Miguel A.
