Alt-drag them to where you wish (even across accounts).

Hello Damien,

Responding  to  your  article  on Fri, 13 Oct 2000 at 15:40:04 GMT +0200
(which was 13/10/2000 20:40 GMT +0700 my Local Time) :

D   - In a reinstallation, when you (re)create your mail account, the
D   bat! import all settings (mail, login, password) but if your SMTP
D   require a login/password different from the login/password of POP
D   account (for a same account), he replace the POP settings
D   (login/password) by SMTP settings.

I am not sure, but it seems happens once here if memory serve.

Hi Damien,

live) Damien wrote and made these points on the subject
of "suggestion and bug":

D - With the same PGP configuration, when I select "verify and
D decrypt when receive a mail" in the plugins, nothing happens in The
D Bat!. I must do all things with [CTRL]+[SHIFT]+D or C...

These options are not applicable to the TB plug-in. TB's interface
requires manual intervention.

D - In a same account, I use multiple folder for changing identities.
D When I receive mail in the "inbox" folder, I must move the mail to
D the good folder (for changing my identities) before reply. Is there
D any solution for selecting an identities (not attached to an
D account but a folder) when you wrote a mail ?

You can could define a Quick Template which changes the current
account and sets the From and Reply-To accordingly using template
macros. Just type the QT handle and press Ctrl-Space to switch.

D - When you wrap your text (like this one) and use the [ALT]+L when

A paragraph is delimited by *two* blank lines.

2000-10-13 Thread Januk Aggarwal

Hello Giamma,

On  Friday, October 13, 2000  at  13:48:49 GMT +0200 (which was 4:48 AM
where I live) witnesses say Giamma typed:


 how about read what is written at the end of every message?

Chances are the person had folder templates defined with
%To="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

So if this person clicked the mailto link below, then the list would
get a copy too.  But speaking of that, perhaps a simple filter could
be created to remove messages being sent to both the list and the
unsub address?  Create a filter with the following:

String:  Location  Presence
TB(UDL|BETA)[EMAIL PROTECTED]SenderYes
TB(UDL|BETA)@thebat.dutaint.com  Recipient Yes
unsubs?c?r?i?b?e?Subject   Yes

Enable Regular Expressions and have it moved to the trash.  The '?'
characters are there so that typos would be caught.  Can anyone think
of a better way to catch typos?

Hello Marck,

On  Friday, October 13, 2000  at  18:33:20 GMT +0100 (which was 10:33 AM
where I live) witnesses say Marck D. Pearlstone typed:


D - Is there a possibilities to change the order of folders (and
D accounts) in the left tree ? (actually, they appear in the creation
D order)

 Use Alt-Drag and drop to move folders. Use Ctrl-Drag to drop a folder
 /into/ another.

Um, slight correction, Ctrl-drag does nothing, Ctrl-Alt-drag moves a
folder into another folder.

D - When you receive a mail with a lot of "to:" people, it's not so
D easy to see the entire list. (you cab display the header of course)

 You can display the header (of course) ;-).

Um, Marck, if you display the header using View-Message Header, and
your message has lots of recipients, then you don't see all of them.
TB's scrolling of this field is also quite odd.  This is one aspect
that is rather annoying in TB.  Personally, only Netscape comes close
to dealing with this situation in a good way, but even that leaves
something to be desired.  In Netscape, a list is displayed in the main
message viewer with essentially one address per line.  Not all the
addresses are shown by default but there is a little arrow that will
show the rest.  This field is treated like normal text, so
highlighting and copying are easy.

TB has the Address Auto-view option, but here the drop down list width
is much too small to see an overview of everyone who received the
message.  Also all recipient fields (To, Cc, Bcc) are merged with the
sender fields (From:) into one list. (Obviously Bcc is only applicable
for messages you've created and sent).

I think the best solution would be for the Address Auto-view
dialogue to include a tab with a textbox containing the members of the
list one per line.  Also there should be some way to indicate who in
in the sender field, To field and Cc field.  Perhaps colours or an
icon could do this job.  Alternately, the dialogue box could have 4
extra tabs, one for each field.

It would also be nice if this system ported to the message editor
window as well.  In the message editor, Netscape Messenger 4.5 has
best system.  If you've never seen how Netscape does this part, let me
know and I'll produce a screen capture.  It is a very nice solution.
Don't get me wrong, when choosing addresses from the address book (the
little rolodex icon on the address line in the message editor), TB has
a very nice interface. What needs to be added is a way to add an
address in this dialogue box that does not exist in your address book.

Perhaps another possible solution would be to create a temporary
address book with the various recipients and senders as entries.  I'm
not entirely sure how this would work, but it is another solution the
developers might consider.

However the developers choose to do this, I would really appreciate a
better visualization system to see addresses in the messages.  TB has
excellent tools available, so I'm sure it won't require much extra
code to make reading and manipulating mail just a little easier.

I (and I think Damien) were both referring to the RFC822 headers -

they've been proving some of the new V2 technology in the latest V1

brand new features rather than enhancement to existing facilities.
S/MIME, MAPI, new mail-base structures, etc.

unsub([scribe]{0,7})? should do it. This would allow the mixing up of

Hello Marck,

where I live) witnesses say Marck D. Pearlstone typed:

 By view the kludges you can clearly see all recipients. It's not

I suppose, but there is so much other junk in there.  It can be a pain
to find the info.

JA I think the best solution would be for the Address Auto-view
JA dialogue to include a tab with a textbox containing the members of
JA the list one per line.  Also there should be some way to indicate
JA who in in the sender field, To field and Cc field.  Perhaps
JA colours or an icon could do this job.  Alternately, the dialogue
JA box could have 4 extra tabs, one for each field.

 Either of these implementations would be good.

The only additional request I'd like to append is to make the dialogue
resizeable.  There is no way to estimate what will be convenient for
even a majority of users.  But as long as the dialogue box is of user
defined size and has sticky settings, the RIT guys don't have to worry
about making that decision.

JA It would also be nice if this system ported to the message editor
JA window as well.  In the message editor, Netscape Messenger 4.5 has
JA best system.  If you've never seen how Netscape does this part,

 I haven't. Send it to me off-list.

I posted it on TBOT in the files section:
http://www.egroups.com/files/tbot/Netscape+Messenger+Capture.PNG

To be correct, this is for version 4.7.  It doesn't matter what the
exact version is though, see the picture for key details.

JA Perhaps another possible solution would be to create a temporary
JA address book with the various recipients and senders as entries.
JA I'm not entirely sure how this would work, but it is another
JA solution the developers might consider.

 Sounds a bit of an overkill to me g.

Ok, I'll grant you that one. :)  I was just offering yet another idea.
I really don't know how much code and/or work would be required for
each of these ideas. By offering options to the developers, hopefully
they can synthesize an even better solution.  Case and point: Colour
groups.

 Let's hope that these ideas and thoughts make an impact on the new
 work being done towards V2. I don't think I'd like to see V2 slowed
 down to have modified functionality of this magnitude in V1.

Sure that's reasonable.  V1, V2, it's all the same to me.  TB in it's
current form is quite different from the TB I registered.  A lot has
been added, and a lot has been fixed.  I'm not going to insinuate that
my suggestion has any greater priority than other suggestions.

 I know they've been proving some of the new V2 technology in the
 latest V1 upgrades but it seems to me that these new technologies
 have all been brand new features rather than enhancement to existing
 facilities. S/MIME, MAPI, new mail-base structures, etc.

I agree.  I registered with v1.35 or 1.36 (I don't remember).  The
changes between that version and the current version would be worthy
of a V2 status if it were from any other company.  Just take a look at
the length of the version 1.42 update list and all the features
since then.  It is incredible.  I'm happy that I'm not the one doing the
coding.  :)
