Hi Tony, We have both made our points, the decision is now with Ritlabs. And then ultimately, with their paying customers and *their* priorities with reading emails and viewing attachments. Funny how one's priorities change. I am getting a contact form by email from a website coded in India. I have just complained that the form comes across in a UUE block and they say it works fine in Outlook and why do I use an email client that doesn't display correctly? It's a bit embarrassing, really. I got that question many times. When I talked with a Chinese about the program (he liked it) and we got to non OS characters filtering problem (not going to tell the guy it's cool and have him call me in a week asking 'How the hell can I filter or search over Chinese?') he decided not even give TB! a try. He was using notebook from US with English OS, so filtering on Chinese language is not working at all (other languages are affected as well). I use TB! and like it but I can't take a risk of recommending it. After a problem with TBK import to v4 (TBK made with v4) I run into I need to dig deeper on that before I recommend v4 as well. Maybe after we get to 5.9 it's gonna be perfect :) Will see :) -- Best Regards, RS (FEDARA) The Bat! 4.2.44.2 Windows 7 x64 Professional (7601 Service Pack 1) Friday, July 29, 2011 (17:57 ; GMT+8) Current beta is 5.0.22.1 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

There are two methods: 1) File - Save as... 2) Tools - Export message to - Unix mailbox Both methods save a file with extension .mbox, even if I try to override it by putting an extension like .txt at the end of the name. What's also weird is that I cannot change the name of the file while TB! is still active. I have to close TB! in order to rename the file.
