MB P with no CC hang or download problems. Could it be a BF/SP2 problem?

MB Pat are you (and James as well) using Bayes Filter as opposed to
MB BayesIt?

I was previously using BayesIt, thought I'd give Bayes Filter a spin
since TB seems to consume a lot of virtual memory for me (sometimes
over 70MB over time before I restart it) I wanted to see if it was a
leak or normal usage in a plugin or TB itself. As soon as I switched
to Bayes Filter my shutdown/connection window problems started.

As a side note, deleting either Bayes plugin from TB's anti-spam
interface causes my TB to crash. It would appear like TB continues to
reference menu items or DLL hooks or something after they were removed
and causes errors.

After removing Bayes Filter the problem went immediately away. So
while it may not be Bayes Filter 2.0.0 all by itself, it is definitely
a major contributing factor to this problem.

I also had the problem where I had mail that downloaded (I saw it in
the log as a downloaded) but it was not in my mail folder. I ran
folder maintenance to check integrity/repair and it didn't find any
problems and my messages still didn't appear. I then removed Bayes
Filter as a plugin (which crashed TB) and then re-launched, and then
my mail showed up in my folders. I'm guessing they were held up in a
spam-processing queue or something and were stuck? I'm guessing.

As another side note, I am running XP SP2 and TB 3.0.2.5. I've also seen a
couple references to complex folder structures which I would probably
qualify for. I have mail folders 3 to 4 levels deep.

I hope the information helps isolate the problem... :)

I think earlier posts identified BayesFilter, as opposed to BayesIt,
as the program that might be the problem. I am running BayesFilter on
XP with SP2; and I should stress that there was no problem when the
configuration was BF on my XP SP1.

GS  IIRC you transferred all files over from old

True Paul, for some reason the folder was called TheBat2.0 no matter

GS Before going to a new mail program what I would do is remove TB from
GS the new computer and do a clean install on it with the latest release
GS file from Ritlabs.

I dread the thought of a clean install almost as much as the jump to
a new email program. In any case, I did try a clean install here on
the new computer; had to re-set up all the templates and settings...
or would have if the hang problem didn't rear its ugly head before I

My aim is bad, so don't worry. :-)

Hi all,

I installed 3.0.2.8 this week and had a problem retrieving mail with one of
my accounts.

When shutting down TheBat I get the (in)famous dialog that says that One or
more connections is still active. Shutdown anyway ?. No matter which
button I choose (Yes, No, Cancel) TheBat refuses to shutdown. The only
thing that works is to kill it from the Taskmanager.

I haven't seen this in a long time. Looks like an old bug that has

I've had the same experience even with POP3. Problem occurs if a connection is

This is a The Bat bug which goes back to about version 1.0, and has
been occurring regularly for ever since, up the latest and supposedly
greatest beta's.  It will probably require one of the grandiose
complete rewrites that Ritlabs has promised multiple times, to be
fixed.  Or it might be some fundamental Delphi problem.

Anyway, I also never understood why the question is made so
complicated.  I always have to read the question three or four times
before I know which button to press, which then never works anyway, of
course.  What's so hard about a Do you want to exit (YES/NO) box?
And where is the much needed option Don't ask any stupid questions,

RvdH more connections is still active. Shutdown anyway ?. No matter which
RvdH button I choose (Yes, No, Cancel) TheBat refuses to shutdown. The only

I haven't experienced this bug until I switched from bundled BayesIt to
Antispam Bayes Filter Plugin v2.0.0. Even though no tasks are listed
in the connection centre I can't close TB.

I have my connection center dialog set to automatically show and
hide when retrieving mail. Since I started using BF I've also noticed
the connection center window never hides anymore, even though
nothing is listed in it.

I would imagine these two problems are related and have something to
do with either the Bayes Filter plugin or TB's API (or the
combination).

Is everyone experiencing this problem using BF, or any plugin for that
matter? Does the problem go away if all plugins are disabled/deleted?

Might be worth checking into...

You could try a different (external) spam filter in case you desparately
need it (while disabling/removing the Bayes* plugin in TB), in case you get
a lot of spam; K9 from http://www.keir.net does a good job here.

Hello P.Johnson,

This maybe a good guess, however I run TB with BayesIt on WinXP Pro
SP2 and have no problem.  IIRC you transferred all files over from old
computer which had a funky folder structure.  So I suspect that you
may have some of the old file structure which could contribute to the
problem. When I purchased v3 I did a clean install, and if I recall
some things worked differently from the beta.

 Mary what I may end up doing, if I don't jump to another mail program,
 is installing my old hard drive into my new machine as a back up,but
 will keep the OS and maybe run TB! from there, if it isn't too
 impractical to do so.

Before going to a new mail program what I would do is remove TB from
the new computer and do a clean install on it with the latest release
file from Ritlabs. When I say remove I would remove everything in the
registry and all program files EXCEPT those under the 'Mail'
directory. This way you could preserve your mail database with the new
install. Make sure you have your v3 registry key email saved to a text
file, so you can get to it without using TB.

You may want to do a complete folder maintenance followed up by a
complete backup within TB using its backup before going through this
procedure.  Other thing you can do is use WinRAR batch file to do
backup of 'Mail' directory or do it manually.

In order:

1)  Copy 'Mail' folder and all subdirectories someplace for save
keeping.

2)  In Admin account open 'Control Panel', then 'Add or Remove
Programs'. If you do NOT have TB in list of programs, then you
must
have installed from WinRar (or other compressed file including
registry), and see note below.  If TB is in list of programs, then
chose 'TB' | click 'change' | Next | select remove | click next
button | select 'keep the working directory and all data files' |
click remove button.  This should remove TB from the registry and
leave the 'Mail' directory in tact.

Note: To remove TB when not in list of files in 'Add or Remove
Programs' click Start | Run | type 'regedit' | at top of key
structure do a find (Ctrl+F) and type in 'RIT' and make sure all
options are chosen with 'Match whole string only' and hit enter.
You
should be at the 'RIT' key so right mouse click and select
'delete'.
For safe keeping hit the F3 key which should continue search to
make
sure no other 'RIT' exists which should not.  You now have TB out
of
the registry, so close the registry editor.

3)  download the latest TB install file and have your v3 registry key
ready.  You may want to reboot here before going through the clean
install.

4)  When you open TB for the 1st time you will get the 'Directories
setup' so you want to choose 'User-defined directory' and put the
directory where you want it to be.  If it isn't the same as
previous installation just copy over the directory with all files
and subdirectories to the location desired.  If the Mail base is
going to accessed by different users of the PC, it will be
important that all users have rights to this directory if it is on
a NTFS partition.  If you leave the default, then you are chosing
a configuratin which only the one user will have access too on a
NTFS partition.

5)  I would choose 'I want to create a new account' here and put the
exact name of the old accounts under the 'Mail' directory.  This
way TB will see all the old configuration files so you won't have
to do anything other than type in all the old account names and
click next through the rest of the configuration.  You might even
want to use Windows Exlorer to copy the account names from the
'Address' field in Explorer if you have more than 1.  Simply
choose Account | New and go through the same procedure.

Note: I didn't chose from a TB backup because my memory tells me
that the registry is included so by using complete backup it
technically is not a comlpletely clean install.

6)  Use registry key to register TB and see if TB works now.  If it
doesn't you can shoot me.  :-)

I'm fairly sure the problem is with Bayes Filter v2.0.0. I experienced the
problem here (on 1 account) and TB! refused to import messages correctly after
downloading them off the server. I tried downgrading TB! to earlier versions, I
tried using message dispatcher.. all failed to fix the problem. Eventually I
downgraded to Bayes Filter 1.5.4 - and everything started to work again. Seems
conclusive to me... Achim - you have a had to find bug! ;-)

 No.   I  am  running  both  BF 2.0.0 and BayesIT and have had no
 problem at all!

 It may be OS related and in this regard it is useful in this forum to
 always include the OS and other equipment details in the signature.
