I like to look at my messages chronologically. And I like to examine the headers on each one. Then I decide what to download and what to delete. Most of my mail is from the three TB! lists I'm subscribed to, plus tbot, plus a scattering of mail from family and personal friends. It's rare for me to have more than 100 mails at a time to look at--usually it's 20 to 50. It is rare for me to see a Spam or a suspicious "virus-trojan" looking mail among them. I have the time and the inclination to do it this way. I'm most grateful that The Bat! affords me this capability. When I get my mail filtered to its various folders, I still don't read by threads. I read the mail in each folder chronologically, oldest to latest. But that's just me. Everyone else's mileage obviously varies. And that's the beauty of The Bat!--it's so flexible, to meet a variety of different needs, and it works well with so many other good programs, like MailWasher. -- Best regards, Mary :Mary: The Bat! 2.12.00 on Windows XP 5.1 2600 Service Pack 1 ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.12.00 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
