Common Replied Filter no longer works with v.4.0.7
Hello Fellow Beta Testers, I have defined a common read filter, called Reply Needed, that allows me to set the color group and assign the message so marked to a virtual folder where it awaits a reply. Here is that filter. This one works in 4.0.7. TB!

Re: Un-install wizard doesn't completely remove files
Hi Raymund, Friday, August 11, 2006, 1:16:59 PM, you wrote: RT So I don't think that will be fixed as it is a bit hard to do without RT tweaking the complete installation. Thanks for your reply, Raymund. As people such as you have contributed their thoughts, my understanding of the issue I was facing has been refined (mostly corrected, actually). And, by the way, I was operating with administrative rights when I was making the changes, of course. As it turned out, my problems were actually not so much with the un-install/re-install process as with the residual, corrupt message base files and how the new installation failed because of them. The text of the message in this dialog ... http://img520.imageshack.us/my.php?image=uninstalldialogth5.png ... implies that message base would be removed during the un-install. That is apparently not correct if the installation is an OTFE install or if the user chose to install the message base in some non-standard location. As a result of the several comments people have made to this thread, I've come to think the actual problem is how TB! handles the situation where a file in the message base is corrupt. As Peter, I think it was, said, it would be preferable if TB! gave a message to the effect, I've encountered a problem using the existing message base. Would you like to start the program without that message base? Yes/No/Cancel. That way, one could get into the program and restore from a backup. An even more elegant solution, as a secondary trouble shooting step, might be to allow accessing the message base one account at a time and then one folder at a time until you encountered the problem account or folder, but that might be a bit much to ask. -- Regards, Perry Using The Bat! v3.81.14 Beta on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 2 Current beta is 3.81.14 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/

Un-install wizard doesn't completely remove files
Hello Group, Over the last couple of days, I've needed help in getting version 3.80.06 reinstalled on my computer. You may have seen the discussion on TBUDL, starting with mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] from Tue, 8 Aug 2006 07:36:49 -0400. Apparently some file was corrupted when the computer went down while TB! was accessing the server to get mail. I was running version 3.80.06 in OTFE mode at the time. I first tried to un-install TB! and restore from backup, but upon starting TB! after the re-install, I kept getting cascading AVs, just after the splash screen was loaded. Eventually Alexander, Marck, Mary and Stuart got me back up and running by pointing out that I should check to see if everything had, in fact, been removed during the un-install procedure. Sure enough, it had not. Manually deleting the relevant folders in both C:\Program Files and C:\Documents and Settings\Perry Nelson\Application Data appeared to be the key to getting the re-install to go smoothly. I was surprised that TB!'s installation wizard did not remove those files, as I had instructed it to. Since I had to do this process more than once, I took screen shots the last time through of what appear to me to be the important screens. The first is a shot of the un-install dialog where I instructed the wizard to remove the files. http://img520.imageshack.us/my.php?image=uninstalldialogth5.png The second graphic shows what was left in C:\Program Files ... http://img223.imageshack.us/my.php?image=progfilesleftim0.png ... and the third illustrates what was left in the C:\Documents and Settings\Perry Nelson\Application Data area. http://img520.imageshack.us/my.php?image=appdataafteruninstalldk3.png I would have expected that if I instructed the wizard to remove all files, none would be left. In my case, where some of the residual files were apparently corrupted, re-installing was not possible until I manually removed them by removing those folders. Is this behavior of failing to remove these files as it was intended to be? Or is it a bug that needs to be resolved? While this issue isn't technically about the current Beta, it does appear to be one that should be resolved, if it is a bug, before the next release. -- Regards, Perry Using The Bat! v3.81.14 Beta on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 2 Current beta is 3.81.14 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/

In my case, and I suppose almost everyone else's, that would be C:\Program Files\The Bat!.

PO An uninstaller usually only removes stuff (files/directories) it PO created during setup. snip... PO I would not expect the 'old' TB executable to be removed. I wouldn't expect that either. I had renamed the old executable when I added the Beta executable. So we are in agreement about that. I expected it to still be there after the un-install. PO Dunno about the speller directory, did you add it later? No, I did not. It was a part of the standard installation, so far as I can tell. Do you suppose it remained because I may have added a word or two to the User Dictionary? PO Did you check if the uninstaller removed all registry entries? No, I'm sorry to say, I did not. PO I wouldn't want any uninstaller to remove data files. Fair enough. My dilemma with re-installing the program seemed to stem from the corrupt file or files in the message base, however. Once that folder was removed, with whatever contamination it apparently contained, the re-install proceeded normally. Actually it is more accurate to say that the re-install occurred without incident even before I removed that folder; it was starting the program that presented the problem, apparently when the program bumped into those corrupt data files. For the record, this exchange has helped to clarify some things for me though. PO Did you get any question during uninstall to remove the message PO base? According to the bottom line of this graphic, ... http://img520.imageshack.us/my.php?image=uninstalldialogth5.png ... The Working Directory contains all accounts, *message bases* and account books. Unchecking this box will delete all files from the Working Directory (C:\Program Files\The Bat! -- from our agreement above) and all its subdirectories. As you note below, my message bases were stored, not in the Working Directory but under C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\The Bat! Pwd instead. PO I'm still wondering why your mail directory has the suffix 'Pwd'. Is PO this supposed to be standard? (Yup, I don't use a default setup, Mail- PO and Home directories live on a W2K server.) Well, I did accepted the default setup. I always do, unless I have an overriding reason not to. That may be why your Mail Directory is different than mine and why Pwd appears in the C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data location in my setup and not in yours. Are you also running OTFE? PO I support your wish for a separate decription tool, not only for PO backed up files, but for all encrypted files, as they reside on disk. Once I learned that one could restore an encrypted backup to a non-encrypted installation (and demonstrated that for myself this afternoon), I am less concerned about the need for such a tool though I wouldn't fight its development. PO My experience with Voyager forced OFTE: I had it installed on USB, PO with some message bases. Then, after copying msg bases to hard disk, PO reformatted it and reinstalled Voyager. After moving the msg bases PO back to the USB, they were not accessible. Apparently some hardware PO setting (volume name / serial number) is involved in the encryption PO key. Interesting. PO IMHO, this should not be the case. I wonder what the opinion of RIT PO is on this case. I'll be interested in reading their response to that question too. PO Anyways, nice to see you're up and running again. Thanks. My setup is now Plain rather than OTFE, and I'll keep it that way for now. Ironically, I didn't need OTFE anyway, as I am the only one using this computer, but I mistakenly thought I had to install it that way to use Voyager, which, as it turns out, I've downloaded but never yet installed to a USB stick. -- Regards, Perry Using The Bat! v3.81.14 Beta on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 2 Current beta is 3.81.14 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/
