retrieving headers
Hello I just noticed that when I collect mail from the server, the Bat! is first retrieving the headers. Is this an option I can turn off or is it nomal behaviour? -- Fred If corn oil comes from cornwhere does baby oil come from? -- -- View the TBUDL archive at http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBUDL, double click here and send the message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org

FvV I just noticed that when I collect mail from the server, the Bat! is FvV first retrieving the headers. Is this an option I can turn off FvV or is it nomal behaviour? Likely you have kill filters (oof there's a new name for them now and I can't remember what it is), so you have to get rid of all of those to avoid that check. I found them especially irritating because TB wouldn't delete the downloaded messages until the next time I connected so I always had a huge pile of read messages on the server. -tom! -- Bah, ridiculous thing. -- -- View the TBUDL archive at http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBUDL, double click here and send the message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org

Mine showed one such filter, "New rule" with no settings at all, when I downloaded this version of TB. Delete the "New rule" and the mails will be downloaded straight away. If you do need to use selective downaload filters, then yes, all headers must be downloaded first.

FvV But how do I set it up to easily select a template to use that would FvV use a different account? (I need basic info or else need to know FvV where to find the basic info). My understanding from your posts so far is that you wish to be able to send messages to the same address or reply to messages from the same folder using different accounts without having to change the account transport settings each time or moving to another account. Also you seem to use different accounts depending on the time of day and where you are. Therefore, it isn't a situation where you wish to always send messages to this list using a particular account only, at all times. In a situation like that it would be best to just use the 'Options | Active Account' menu option in the editor. If there are recipients to whom you wish to send messages using a single account, at all times, but their messages reside in a folder for another account, then an address book level template will do the job automatically. For each recipient in the address book, the entry properties has templates that will only work for that particular address entry. Just use the '%Account=' macro in templates, placing it at the end of the new message, reply and forward templates. Quick templates are another solution as well. The help on quick templates is pretty adequate for starters. -- -=A.C.

I think this is happening when two messages in the list are inadvertently selected and I hit the reply button with the shift operator, quoting only the selected text. Normally what should happen is that the each message should have it's own text quotes from the senders text but things get screwy when it's only selected text that's being quoted. Seems like a bug to me. What should happen is that the selected text should be quoted for the sender who's text has been selected. For the other message, all text should be quoted since none was selected. -- -=A.C.

Hi David, On Thu, 27 Jul 2000 21:15:39 +0100GMT (28/07/2000, 04:15 +0800GMT), David Powell wrote: DP I don't use selective download filters much, but presumably The Bat DP uses the LIST command to get the sizes of messages, wouldn't it be DP better if The Bat only downloaded the headers first if the message was DP fairly large, otherwise downloading the entire message for small DP messages. It does not matter whether you use them much or little; once you have set up one, the headers will be downloaded first. In order to check whether a message is small or big, TB needs to download the headers. DP Otherwise the overhead involved of downloading the headers, then DP downloading the message again complete with headers defeats the point DP of selective download in the first place.
