Re: Reset Gmail
Hi Richard, Just catching up with emails in this folder, hence the very late response. You have set up the GMail account in TB! as a POP3 account (not an IMAP4 account). This means that as TB! has not messages already from this mail server it will go and download everything in the InBox from start to end, and that is exactly what you are reporting TB! to be doing. NOTE: Be aware that TB!, using its default settings, can then possibly delete all messages from the mail server (GMail in this case) older than 30 days!!! I'd not heard of the "recent:" prefix before, and haven't Googled about it, but I suspect, based on some of the other replies, that it may be an IMAP4 feature. Hope that helps?

Problems with size (width) of HTML messages using internal viewer
For quite some time (probably over 2 years) dome of the HTML (formatted) emails I receive are formatted very badly by The Bat!. What is happening, and mainly caused by large embedded images, is that the email ends up much wider than the message plane in the 3-plane layout I use can display (folders all down left side, folder content top-right, message bottom-right). When I temporarily switch from "Use The Bat! HTML viewer" to "Use Windows OS HTML Viewer" the the email is re-sized to fit the Message plane. Are there any settings, including tweaking the underlying template or definition or CSS files, that I can change to stop this really annoying behaviour?
