Re: Another BIG wish!

Hello Andreas,


On  Saturday, April 22, 2000  at  11:11:57 GMT +0200 (which was 2:11 AM
where I live) [EMAIL PROTECTED] typed:



 Hi,

 I  am  fairly  new  to  The Bat so I don't know if maybe this is already
 possible as I might not have yet discovered it:

 When  I  am  reading  a message, I would like to have the possibility to
 switch  to  the  next UNREAD message by just pressing a key. Like typing
 "N" in Netscape Messenger.

 With the message list pane in focus hit CTRL-]
 The limitation with that combination is that it is only valid within
 the particular folder.  So when there are no new messages in the
 current folder, that keystroke won't do anything.

 Also, if you have the preview pane in focus, CTRL-] does nothing.
 I'm not sure why the focus matters for this particular shortcut, but
 it does.

 A key macro like that would be a good idea!

 This key already exists.  But the long standing wish is that its
 functionality be increased.

 I just realized that you actually open the messages to view them.  In
 that case CTRL-] will work from in the message body.  It is when you
 are using the preview pane that it doesn't work from in the message
 body.  I don't know why there is this discrepancy.

Hi Andreas,

On 22 April 2000 at 02:24:55 GMT -0700 (which was 10:24 where I
live) [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote and made these points on the subject
of "Another BIG wish!":

 I am fairly new to The Bat so I don't know if maybe this is already
 possible as I might not have yet discovered it:

 to switch to the next UNREAD message by just pressing a key. Like

  The limitation with that combination is that it is only valid within
  the particular folder.  So when there are no new messages in the
  current folder, that keystroke won't do anything.

Further  to  this, it might be an idea to look at the ticker. When you
open  new  mail  from the ticker, a "virtual folder" is compiled which
comprises  *all*  of  the  new  messages regardless of folder. In this
mode,  you  can  navigate  through all new mail by simply pressing the
space-bar repeatedly.

This  functionality  does  not suit everyone, but it's worth a look if
you're  new  here.  It's  one of TB's more unique and endearing (IMHO)
features.

Hi, Januk,

 Hello Andreas,

This  doesn't  work.  I  use the german keyboard layout, so CTRL + ]
actually means CTRL + ALT+9.

It doesn't work either way. :-(



Take care,
Andreas
