beta/47


EC   -a- PowerArchiver 2001 at http://www.powerarchiver.com/ and
EC   -b- Ontrack's PowerDesk at http://www.ontrack.com/

 Yes, and if they upload self-extracting archives, the whole thing
 becomes moot. Nobody has to download anything except the beta. Ever.

I confess having an archived file is much more convenient for me. I
have three different Versions of TB!.exe files in the same directory.
Using the Archived files I can easily extract them and rename it
before putting them to the Program Folder.

Also I think that in these days every 'Standard' configured System has
a good Archive Tool.

As a last argument for Archiving files is that .exe files could carry
unwanted codes where archived files are not executables and so a
better security. I know a lot of people who will never accept anything
except archived files.

Have a nice day.

Re: Adding Names to the FROM-Field list

Hello Wolfgang,

On Tuesday, March 12, 2002 at 1:22:42 AM you wrote in
msgid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (at least in part):

W   Sometimes I want to use Wolfgang Reszel [EMAIL PROTECTED]
W   instead of Wolfgang [EMAIL PROTECTED] in the FROM-Field.
W   The list shows only the Names of the accounts, not the last entered
W   Names. Any solutions?

As long as this happens only occasionally you can simply enter
additionally 'Reszel' into 'From'. It's a simply edit field with the
additionally option of a dropdown.

If you decide to use the second name more often you can easily create
a quick template with content

%From=Wolfgang Reszel [EMAIL PROTECTED]%-

and name it e.g. 'full_from'. This way you'll only have to type in
'full_from' (without ') into the message you're about to create and
hit Ctrl+Space.

IMHO there is three possibilities:
1) Compress exe by tools like PECompact which uncompress executables
on-the-fly.
I this case it will nothing to do except cnanging one *.exe by another.
2) Use installer (maybe Nullsoft one)
3) Simply put unrar.exe (or link) with instructions in beta dir.
In last case it will be good to sign archive.

Best regards, Sergey.

P.S. I am not using TB! since sysadmin simply makes registry in my profile
read only :-).
It is somewhat stupid (and produces some glitches like absence of default
printer..:-).
But...Opera, Netscape, MS Office works...TheBat! - not :-(.

Hi Eddie,

EC directory. Using the Archived files I can easily extract them and

With all due respect, I don't think you understand this, Eddie.  A
self-extracting archive is still an archive.  You can store it,
re-name it, do anything to it that you can to to any other archive,
including archive it inside another archive, if you want. But it has
an .exe file extension, rather than .zip, .rar, or dot-anything. And
when you double click it, you can extract it to anywhere you want.

That is really the ONLY difference, other than the fact that the
self-extracting format has an overhead of a few bytes compared to the
original file.

I don't see one bit of functionality that you gain from having an
archive that relies on an underlying program to open and extract its
contents, as opposed to a self-extracting archive, that needs no
underlying program, period.  Do you, now, after reading this?

Best,

Yuki

Re: Re-direct Behavior

2002-03-12 Thread Peter Palmreuther

Hello Richard,

On Tuesday, March 12, 2002 at 12:40:53 AM you wrote in
msgid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (at least in part):

O Still I do not think that TheBat! should use this ReplyTo when
O redirecting.

RMNOf course it should not use your ReplyTo.

That's a philosophical question :-)

I do in fact understand your both POV, nevertheless I don't know if
this can be answered this easy.
You explicitly told TB! to use a 'Reply-To' address by entering it
into account properties. And 'Redirect' is not a 'fake e-mail and
pretend this is coming from somebody else' function, it's an easy way
to forward an e-mail to a third party leaving it at most intact.
If there is an original 'Reply-To' header it will be taken, so message
will not be altered in this matter.

So you see: there are other points of view and they are not false 'by
default' ... Which behavior is the correct one I don't want to decide,
there are too much consequences to have an eye on :-)

BTW: having set a 'Reply-To' identical to the 'From' does not make
sense at all, regardless if you're redirecting or 'normal sending', so
in most cases it ain't necessary to even fill this field out. And I'd
prefer if RIT would not automatically fill it out if I enter or change
some data in 'From' :-/

 There are 2 tools that work without problems:

   -b- Ontrack's PowerDesk at http://www.ontrack.com/

I use both of them but unfortunately none could open the latest beta

That's not the point. Most of us will have chosen a packer/unpacker
long time ago. I gather no-one chose a programme that only supports
one algorithm.

My choice is a German application called Squeez, which is quite good.
But I don't want anyone to use it just because I like it. When I have
to pack a file I use a scheme that is widely supported - from ZIP to
self-extracting.

Re: Makes me wonder about beta testing cycles...

2002-03-12 Thread Dierk Haasis

Hello Kenneth!

On Tuesday, March 12, 2002 at 7:07:44 PM you wrote:

 cost, then perhaps they should go private . . .

Nothing against the pros and cons Maxxx and you mention or
acknowledge. I just think that all in all public testing may not be as
efficient as closed one, but more effective.

Certain problems are - for every software/hardware - system dependent.
Consider the memory leak for the RTV, it couldn't be detected,
according to Alexander, within RITLabs because Win9x isn't used there.
Chances are that a closed beta cycle would be held with computer
versed people like Marck or Peter Palmreuther who work in computing
using any colour of WinNT.

Some years ago, when Opera was a very small company, they had public
betas. Sometime around the 3.6 versions they decided to close beta
testing leading to the infamous 4.x series. A few weeks ago they
returned to public testing - although slightly enhanced through using
their own news server. And Opera was very delighted about the results,
in quality and quantity. A lot of bugs and glitches could be
identified and worked out that couldn't have been found that easily in
a closed circuit. As an example I just cite some printing difficulties
with certain printers (all of the HP kind).

My brandnew Kyocera laser printer has some very stupid glitches - like
not being able to print correctly from CorelDraw. Some of them should
have been found in closed betas (corrupt driver on CD, a software that
works on some systems but not on others, very erratic), others are
definitely an environmental problem, like the ability to work
correctly with FinePrint or ClickBook.*

Just my two cents.


*BTW, if anyone has difficulties printing PDF's from Acrobat Reader,
check Print as graphic.

As for version 2 ... the main theory is that 1.54 is a precursor
containing around 90% of the features slated for v2.

Have to agree with this. I have been using the Opera 6.02 beta 1056
and have never seen Opera as a more usuable browser. Previously, Opera
6, IMO, was utterly useless because of a few small, but fundamental,
glitches.

I hope Ritlabs stick with public beta testing for the 1.x and 2.x
versions of this wonderful email client.
