Gleason, there seems to be some miscommunication. The installer works
fine for me. My complaint is only that the installer does not go far
enough, because I don't have an option with the installer to set up
OTFE while upgrading an installation.

 I'm saying that I have seen situations when they didn't.

Sorry, I meant to say Windows Updates. And, yes, I did encounter one
or two problematic updates that I had to manually work around. But on
those very rare occasions, the manual fix was not that big a detail...
relatively speaking.

 Maybe not, but your chances are better.

Well, Gleason, first of all, when we end up talking about a situation
where chances are better with an installation of OTFE, I guess that
sums up why I have not done it yet.

Second, maybe your chances would be better with the manual process...
but I suspect for most people their chances would be better with an
automated process. Imagine how many TBs would be sold if Ritlabs
provided a bunch of files and lengthy but vague instructions on where
each file had to go and what you had to write into your registry just
to install the software!

Personally, I don't think that this case is significantly different.
Ritlabs is telling me that I can get a feature, but I have to do a
backup, uninstall the program so that I can do a clean install, and
then after my clean install try to import my old settings and
directories and templates and whatever else I had, keeping my fingers
crossed that not too much will go wrong in this process, which you
assure me will take only ten minutes, inshaallah.

Anyway, I guess we will have to agree to disagree. But despite the
fact that you think my chances would be better with that manual
approach, do you see any technical difficulty with Ritlabs providing
an automated script for the process, assuming someone (like me) would
feel more secure with the spoonfed process?

I think my point was how non-IMAP threads get hijacked even at the

disagree here. Stable email is a vital component of my work. POP3 is
stable, while IMAP seems to still have many attendant problems in
areas that I take for granted with POP3. Maybe I am wrong about this,
but I prefer to err on the side of caution - similar to my approach
with OTFE.

The very same happens concerning other aspects of TB!. You could
replace 'IMAP' with 'TB!' in your statement, and someone looking in,
wondering what the fuss with TB! is about, could be saying the same

then restored my system to a date before that fatal install (thanks to
Mary for pointing out to me where that XP function is), and while I
suddenly had a much earlier version of TB (so my XP really went back
in time), the problem still persisted.

I have now undone the restore and am back in the present (even though

care. I would find it quite sad if the only thing you believe in is
what you pay for. We used to call that cruising for a bruising. :-)

Anyway, Google/Gmail earns a lot of revenue on this so-called free
service that you are talking about. And there is nothing absolutely

available and functional tomorrow. I think that Gmail is a likely bet
- as likely as any other service provider I can think of and more

But perhaps you are thinking in terms of privacy. I see that issue in
a layered fashion. My first - and most significant - layer of personal
protection is the care that I take in the words that I write. Even if
all of my mail were to be made public tomorrow (an unlikely
eventuality that might bankrupt Google due to such a betrayal of
trust), I doubt that I would feel personally embarrassed. I would,

has to be factored in when you consider people in situations like mine
(as you mention below).

  I let Google (or my own domain Webmail) handle the central storage
  headache for me.
 
 You put a lot of trust in such a service. More power to you. I store my
 own mail on my personal machine and back it up regularly.

As with everything and everyone else, for me trust is a relative
concept. The questions are only trust someone/something to do what and
for how long. Right now, I consider Google to have the necessary level
of trustworthiness to store mail that I might want to access from
anywhere and at any time.

 Most commonly, I lose connection with my server, if I lose connection
 with the Internet in general. Additionally, the occasional problem with
 my personal server is less frequent as problems I have with other online
 services. It's far more reliable than you may realize. As I've said
 before, my only regret with all this is fearing the reliability issues
 and not actually doing it earlier.

That is not the case with my own server (not my own virtual server but
only Web hosting provided by StartLogic). The company claims to have
99.9% uptime, but things can get very slow and scheduled maintenances
do occur. In contrast, Gmail seems more reliable to me. But, hey, this
is starting to sound like I am a salesman for Google. I am not. I just
happen to appreciate Gmail in comparison to other freemail servers
that I have used for the same or similar purposes.

 Sure. Your choice. Hopefully, this little discussion will stimulate
 others into trying IMAP in situations as yours. :)

By the way, I am not opposed to IMAP. And I have tried it. But all of
the discussion about bugs in IMAP - and people moving from TB to
Mulberry to get stable IMAP - were not much of an encouragement for me
to tread that path. To paraphrase the Bard, methinks the IMAP people
doth protest too much.

 Well, Matt, my Webhosting provider does not give me an IMAP option -
 only a POP3 option. To get the IMAP option I would have to pay more
 and also upgrade to a virtual server (which I would have to maintain
 rather than have a Webhosting provider maintain it for me). So I think
 your assumption is wrong.

What I meant was, most webmail clients use IMAP to connect to their mail
server. I thought maybe you were controlling your own mail server but I
was wrong. Sorry.

Most commonly, I lose connection with my server, if I lose connection

my personal server is less frequent as problems I have with other online

 I just connect to my Gmail account and download the latest mail.

My connection speed issues from work exist no matter which IMAP server I

I don't get that from my office LAN out to the Internet and to my

 I don't see how I am jumping through any special hoops. It seems like
 I have less hoops than ever before. I did not need to buy another
 email client just to accommodate IMAP nor have I had to pull my hair

 POP3, primitive as it might be.

Sure. Your choice. Hopefully, this little discussion will stimulate

anything to do with the address you send it to.

I  am  guessing  here  but I believe the way it works is that when you
send   a   message   it  is  given a message ID or mid that is created
specifically  for  that message. It is in the form of an email address
(sort  of)  that  might look like [EMAIL PROTECTED] . When
you reply to a message a header is created called:
In-Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
and another one called:
References: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I  assume  each  email client uses a different formula to come up with
these  mids, but I really  don't know. I think the experts on the list
could expound.

When someone replies to your reply the Reference header will look like
the following:
References: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

and after several replies back and forth like this:
References: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
It is these headers that are used when you select thread by Reference.

Now  for your problem. Your copy of Mulberry, not Allie's, seems to not
enclose  your  mid  in  . In other words your message has References
that look like this.
References: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
That  small  difference  seems  to  make  your  messages  not  thread
correctly.

Again  in  The  Bat!  use F9 to view the headers and this info for the
message you are viewing.

OK. If I thread messages in TB by reference only, my message and your
reply don't attach themselves to the original thread BUT threading by
reference + subject does thread them properly.

I seem to recall some discussion about this but didn't take in the

Seriously though, I don't know what the issue is here. I don't think
it's TB and I've been using Mulberry with IMAP long enough in
conjunction with TB to have spotted a problem like this.

I'll look through my settings tomorrow and PM you if I can find a few

MAU was right in an earlier message about your headers. For some
reason the leading and trailing   are being stripped from the
message references. Compare mine in the post I just made in this
thread from Mulberry and yours - there is a difference. Why it's

First Impressions

2005-05-15 Thread Avi Yashar
I think this is the best appearance TB has ever had. But that's a very
superficial observation. I have to admit that I am still missing the
promise of TB Pro that I bought with the 3.x series.

I am a basic user. For the most part, I do with TB what I did - very
stably - with 1.62. I still don't use IMAP - don't know that I ever
will use IMAP - but, while I am glad to hear that IMAP is working
better than ever before, this was promised to us in the 2.x series.
It's just an old debt. With 3.x, particularly 3.x Pro, I expected to
get a better level of security. Unfortunately, I am still waiting for
OTFE. Yes, it might be there already and working quite well, but why
must I do a fresh install to get it? I have settings that I like and a
huge database of mail. A fresh install is a daunting task. Can I
import all of my messages? Can I import my quick templates? Can I
import my familiar settings (some of which I lost with the upgrade to
3.5 and had to struggle to restore - mainly because I could not find
any documentation on the new interface, and - well - good as it may
be, it is also somewhat confusing to locate and set up shortcuts,
especially when the keys have changed and the commands appear in
multiple places).

Okay, I don't want to complain too much. I think this was probably a
needed facelift for TB and the work done is highly commendable. But I
do find it annoying when all of a sudden the Connection Centre opens
in the background and Ctrl-F brings up a refilter dialog box instead
of a search dialog box. And I would dearly like to try the OTFE if
only I could get it without having to start all over again, so to
speak.

a client who's primary function is IMAP with POP being secondary, the

Actually, I find that IMAP has simplified my email life. No juggling
of message bases, no danger of different email clients in different
locations being out of sync, no danger that a HD crash will destroy a
year's messages - and with Mulberry a stress-free, almost boring
dependability (although this version of TB is better by far than
previous versions for IMAP).

No unless I have setting wrong.  I have View | View threads by |
selected References (Standard).  Your message appears to be threaded
against your original and it should be to Stuart's per

And just a few messages back someone was talking about well-worth-it,
stress-free reliability! ;-p Well, I know POP3, and I have not worried
about losing messages since I started storing everything on - gasp -
Gmail. I never worry about disk space, and I also don't worry about
crashes. I suppose a crash could happen, but then I would have
millions of people to share my misery if it did.

Anyway, as I mentioned in my original message, a stable IMAP was the
promise of TB2.x. TB3.xPro is supposed to provide OTFE, and I would
really like a way to get that without having to do a clean install.

The correct reference header is the one that was added when I replied.
Mulberry seems to copy existing ref.-headers as-is, but create new
ref.-headers without the  brackets. That explains why they are linked to
the wrong messages by TB.

Odd. I don't experience that bug with messages I send using Mulberry.

Anyway, that's for another list. :)

Nice testimony from Tony. :)

 Actually, I find that IMAP has simplified my email life.

Same here. My only regret is my failure for not migrating to using the
protocol earlier.

Anyone who uses more than one computer and as a result, read their mail
from more than one machine on a regular basis, should consider using this
protocol. This may be multiple machines in your home (that's me), or
machines at home and at work (that's also me). It *amazingly* simplifies
things and increases your flexibility. With POP, I tended to resist
using multiple machines or reading mail from multiple locations because
of the potential hassles and hoop jumping involved in doing so.

This isn't what they're referring to. It's your In-Reply-to headers.
Would you check the messages in your Sent Folder. See if they
In-Reply-to headers have the message id enclosed in .

For me, they are.

  RFC2822 says that the  must be there (section 3.6.4).  Looks like
  Mulberry needs to have that fixed ;)

Allie, I appreciate your sincerity, but... I have all of those
conditions but none of those problems. The reason is because instead
of setting up my own IMAP server (a dedicated computer or whatever I
would have to do), I let Google (or my own domain Webmail) handle the
central storage headache for me. Right now I am sitting in  the
airport, waiting for a flight and replying to your letter. I am not
worried about losing any mail. I don't need to connect to my homemade
IMAP server. I don't have to leave a homemade IMAP server in place and
worry about blackouts or poor connections. I just connect to my Gmail
account and download the latest mail.

I don't see how I am jumping through any special hoops. It seems like
I have less hoops than ever before. I did not need to buy another
email client just to accommodate IMAP nor have I had to pull my hair
out over TB's IMAP implementation. So, for now at least, I stick with
POP3, primitive as it might be.

But let me not get into this IMAP debate. OTFE that can be activated
on top of an existing installation of TB is my main thing.
