There is a hack around it, and it is a registry change to fix it...

Outlook fails to follow many RFCs, and causes MANY problems with other
clients because of it... going to tell the other programmers to "fix"
their stuff too because MS doesn't want to follow the rules? They're
setup for a reason :)

There are very few "stupid" RFCs... the rest are written for people to
communicate with... if they didn't exist, people wouldn't be able to
communicate on the internet.

RFC says that any spaces in a URI MUST be encoded with %20... That
means that spaces have to be converted... anybody that doesn't is
breaking RFCs.

Erm... If TB is changed to accept it, then it does break RFCs.

The Bat! Is made for users and not for RFCs.
If there are some "bad" webmasters the user of The Bat don't have to suffer
of some RFCs...
For example "Microsoft Office Outlook 2003" work fine with both variants and
it splits on some RFCs, it just do its work.
So you just trying to tell me that Ritlabs don't think about its users - it
think about some "stupid" RFC.

Also this BUG with ?subject= is not that case when you have to speak about
RFC.
It must be done so that The Bat understands "spaces" and this will neither
way break the work of The Bat with RFC.

2004-05-28 Thread makc666

Hellow all.
My first post here.
I don't know quit if it is a BUG but I thinks yes.
If web-master used in his code line like:
mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] addresses">Press
here to email me
When The Bat! User will press on that link in subject line he will see only
word "Contact".
And not the full phrase "Contact addresses".

If web-master used in his code line like:
mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]">Press
here to email me
So he replaced "space" with "%20" then The Bat! will catch the subject to
the email right as "Contact addresses"

I think that The Bat! must work correct if there are spaces in "?subject="
and the current situation is a BUG of The Bat!

Thanks!

One of variants is that you make a Selective Download filter and allow
only specifically addressed mail to get through it. One of these
addresses would be that with legit "richieg".

But, with a such filter one should be careful, since you could find that
you deleted what you wouldn't want (althoguh you would know that from
LOG).

Example for something like that is: Selective Download - Rule: Entire
header | Advanced: Action - Kill, Detection method - None of strings
should match.

In a such filter I have all addresses of things I'm subscribed in, plus
few "modes" of my own address. E.g.:

I totally agree that's what it could be.  My point was that pretty much
nothing had been said in the BugTracker.  If it sounds to the folks at
RIT like a Windows problem, they are quite at liberty to say so.

I'm not professionally in software QA, but I have been in development
and development/QA support for almost 17 years (so call me a newbie) and
I am well aware of the nature of bugs and 'features' of software.  For
one thing, I know it is important to gather as much information as you
resonably can before trying to track down the cause of a problem...

I more than try them since I currently use them. :)

ThunderBird's IMAP support works more reliably, especially with a
wider variety of connection speeds and servers. However, it's a basic
client otherwise. I fight with its lack of other features, i.e., a
good editor, quick templates and other templates, poor identity
support without the facility to tie identities to mailboxes. I feel
like I'm back to the good old days of doing everything manually rather
than in an automated fashion. The only plus with ThunderBird is
Enigmail. I really like the autoverification of PGP signatures as well

Deleting all emails before synchronise - easy way

2004-05-28 Thread Marten Gallagher
Before I synchronise my desktop with my laptop prior to going away
from home office; and because synchronise simply adds to the existing
emails; i.e: stuff that was on both machines but has been deleted from
the Desktop will not be deleted from the Laptop when synchronising...

I need to...

Delete all emails from the Laptop - BUT NOT the account settings.

My feeling is that if I delete the .TBI and the .TBB files only that
will remove all emails from the Laptop but leave the account settings,
filters, templates etc in place.

Am I right?

And anyway why shouldn't I just copy the Desktop .TBI and .TBB files and
overwrite their equivalents on the Laptop and be done with it?

Of course, if I'm missign a trick about synchronising whereby stuff
that has been deleted from the Desktop can be set to be deleted from
the Laptop then that would solve the issue but my guess is that
there's no way for the Laptop to know what's deleted 'cos, by
definition, there's no trace of them.

What fuse? 8-)

I use it from two reasons:

1) The time I sent it from my contraption is not same time the
contraption of my ISP has (re)sent it from. But it is not so
significant.

2) It is written in a much more "user friendly" form, so that even those
not that skilled in reading headers can find it easily.

A sub-reason 2a) is that I can add some specific data about specific
profile of my communication contraption system, related to the time a
message is living it, which means something to some of my
correspondents, and to me myself.

I have been in Software QA for over 25 years.  I just want to say that a "bug"
like you posted looks a great deal like a problem with your computer.  

I run Windows XP, and a format and reinstall every six months.  One reason is
that I have worked in software QA at Microsoft and their software is very
unstable.  Every six months, I back up my data, reformat and reinstall.  It
keeps windows stable and fast.  So, when was the last time you reinstalled
windows?

Bad Processing of Browser's "Send" Command

2004-05-28 Thread Joseph N.
This is a follow-up to previous posts concerning TB!'s poor 
processing in some circumstances of a browser's mailto: or send 
command.  Another example--though it may take a little work to 
test this--is from the online NY Times of May 28, 2004.  
  Toward the right side of the main index 
page, there's a box referring to "Review:  Painters of Reality," 
about an exhibit of Italian art.  Click on "Slide Show."  This 
might require registering at the site, but it's free.  From any 
image in the slide show, right-clicking in a Mozilla-based browser 
(I'm using a nightly build from February) gives a "Send image" 
command.  Left-click that command, and TB! comes up.  The link, 
however, appears not only in the main body but also in the TO: 
field.

If this is confirmed, I'll search the bug db and, if not already 
there, I'll file it.

Hi Michael.

At 3:14 AM on Friday, May 28, 2004 it seems you posted the following
to [EMAIL PROTECTED] in regards to X-Ray:  why?: 

  A less techie type reason was, that until recently, TB! users
  could not control their x-mailer header. As a consequence there
  were some over ambitious or ignorant services that filtered out
  The Bat! email because somewhere/sometime ago TB! was mentioned as
  a client that could be easily automated for spamming purposes. Of
  course, TB! licensing expresses prohibits it's use for spamming
  but never mind; there are a lot of really dumb administrators out
  there. X-ray allowed TB! users to change the x-mailer header as
  well as other functions as others have explained.

  TB! users can now turn off the x-mailer header which avoids the
  problem.

Well, a colour is a matter of so called "taste", or of aesthetic moment
(although it has even some functional influence in a given
circumstances, one must admit), while I observe a computer contraptions
before all as a technical thing which I judge of against effectiveness.

My attention was too unilateral, I see now, so I couldn't understand the

don't like some musical "genres" (as modern "country" songs, although
they do a great job in terms of socialization, observing the thing in a
non-musical way, purely anthropologically, et sim.)

I backup *all*, via ARJ (2.60). :-) Version 2.8x is in some aspects
better, but generally it runs markedly slower.

I also do that with a mere click. :-) I click (or "Start - Run -
'bkupall'"), and "bkupall.bat" calls all the bunch of other about 50
.bat files which do their jobs collectively and diligently. When I feel
lazy, I schedule the bkupall.bat to run each hour, or in every 27
minutes.

"Tweaking and testing" batch scripts you do only once. :-) Same as when
you configure any other backup program.

Well, that part was certainly my omission to understand motives and
habits of others. I see my mistake now and I agree, with what you say.

Although I just had offered a cheaper and faster way (perhaps even more
reliable one, and safer for OS). If no one is interested in, I am back

Yes, thanks, that's a best solution. (I was not sure, in that time, if
these messages were a spam, so I could't rely on return path, since in a
such case this line often is not the same.)

Hehe... Obviously. This part I completely forgot. Thanks for reminding
me.

It depends on what you want/need.

Just one of the examples I use it for: since The Bat cannot write the
time when a message is *sent*, I use X-Ray for writing this time in (the
"sent" line in my headers).

Generally, it serves for editing (in/out) header part of a message, as
Julian already explained.

Use the %CLIPBOARD content to paste the clipboard content at any
point in any template. Easy when you know how :-).

A template and clipboard challenge

2004-05-28 Thread Marten Gallagher
I have a template which requires the same piece of text (which is in
the system clipboard) inserted in two places.

The challenge is:

How to code the template so that it automatically takes the contents
of the clipboard and inserts it in the two places.

At the moment I have the %CURSOR at the first insertion point so I
just hit CTRL-V but then have to click the second place and repeat
before clicking SEND.

Possible? Pipedream?

I went the other way. I gave up my fastmail.fm account, because I
couldn't get the IMAP to work right in TB. It was easier to use my free
Yahoo account ( or others:) than fight IMAP.

Allie probably wouldn't agree with me about my choice ;)

Why should I use PGP ?

Hello,

Why should I use PGP ?

[no sig and no delimiters, because my ISP spoils them and the moderators
don't like it]

TB! or not TB ? (..that is the question..)

2004-05-28 Thread SL
Hello TBUD Listees

I have resumed the vain search for the perfect mailer, which of course
is different things to different people (and a futile quest for all!).
I keep coming back to The Bat! (TB!), despite not liking its (to me
unappealing) appearance, its buggy HTML editing etc BUT...it has
so many pluses.

I am using IMAP in Mozilla ThunderBird (TB...or T-Bird if you like)
and in TB!  Both have their pluses and minuses.

I don't find IMAP in TB! too bad...  Also I like TB! 's speed...it
opens up faster than most mailers and seems to do various
operations as faster or faster than most... TB! gives you plenty of
options too...and lets you know what is going on...(eg when
sending/receiving mail...I like that...)

However T-Bird has some real pluses too (a lot of FastMail devotees
seem to use it too)...especially for a freebie...

Anyone else tried both T-Bird and TB!...especially IMAP??

There are two reasons you might wish to use X-Ray.  One is that is
allows you to modify the headers in your email messages - it is a
quite sophisticated program in this respect.

The other reason is if you are using TB! on a laptop, for example, and
may need to send messages through a variety of SMTP servers. In this
case you tell TB that the SMTP server is Localhost (X-Ray) and X-Ray
can either manually or automatically choose the SMTP server. For
example, I used X-Ray to choose between a Work (Exchange), Home (DSL)
and Mobile (Dial-up) SMTP server, which it did automatically depending
on the IP address the laptop had been allocated.

I don't do this now, as my ISP has an option of Authenticated SMTP, so
I can send mail through my ISP's SMTP servers whichever network I am
connected to.

Hope this helps!

Someone told me I should be using X-Ray if I use the Bat.  I have
downloaded it and configured it a little, and now I need to ask why?
What does it really do for me?  Anyone have any good Kludge filters to
use with it?  Why shuffle SMTP and POP servers?  Any ideas?
