Good to read :-) So I don't need to set up an IMAPD at home and send you network captures to prove the 'INBOX\Trash' folder was sent by IMAPD but wasn't recognized by The Bat! :-) -- Regards Peter Palmreuthermailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (The Bat! v1.60 RC/2 on Windows 2000 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 2) He who lives without folly is less wise than he believes. _ Archives : http://tbbeta.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Bugs/Wishes: https://bt.ritlabs.com/
Re: RC with degraded IMAP capabilities?
Hello Markus / Stefan >> Here everything shows up fine... > I know this might be heresy, but did you try it with a freshly installed > beta or RC? OK - I've just installed everything from scratch on a new PC, starting at 1.53d release version, and adding every RAR over the top.. and testing. Here are my comments a) The GUI is confusing in that "Subscribed only" checkbox defaults to OFF, when it should default to ON - as that is what is displayed then going into the folder view initially b) When pressing Reset Mask (Cntrl M), it **takes some time** to actually do a retrieve the folder list. (We have a couple of thousand IMAP folders on Exchange, and even on a 100Mb LAN it takes a few seconds to refresh). During this time, the GUI is live - but there is no "BUSY" indicator, therefore buttons (like Subscribed only) continue to work and appear to give odd results. If you wait.. (without clicking madly) the folder list will be retrieved. It would be good if the GUI set the busy status whilst doing this folder query. c) When selecting Reset Mask, you get a "Mailbox" dropdown which 1) Doesn't reflect the currently highlighted mailbox, and is therefore counter intuitive (it is a list of all folders) 2) Although you CAN clear the mailbox mask by over-typing, there is no indication that you need to. Better would be to add a button to clear this field, and convert the dropdown into an uneditable picklist. It would make more sense this way. 3) Re-naming the mask to be "Subfolder mask" would be clearer too. In conclusion.. Stefan is right. Functionally there is no difference between ANY of the versions, although I was confused by the problems with the "slow" rate of screen refresh on the IMAP folder view. If you give the UI time, it does work correctly, and the currently release candidate does behave identically to 1.53d regards, Graham Using The Bat! 1.60 RC/2 under Windows NT 4.0 (Build 1381, Service Pack 6) _ Archives : http://tbbeta.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Bugs/Wishes: https://bt.ritlabs.com/

Hi, Stefan Tanurkov wrote in msgid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] : > Did you cleared out the "Mailbox" field when you reset the mask? > Here everything shows up fine... I know this might be heresy, but did you try it with a freshly installed beta or RC? OTOH could it be that somewhere during the beta cycle some settings were messed up and now they won't work even if the 'engine' would allow it? Create an account on fastmail.fm and see if you get to see any other folder than INBOX. I really tried everything I could think of mask-wise. I was even able to create new folders through the dispatcher, still the Bat won't see them. Regards, Markus -- Don't anthropomorphize computers. They hate that.

Hello Stefan > You should reset mask - there is such a command in the menu when you > click the Action button. By default, only the folders you are > subscribed to are shown. Nice try Stefan.. I ventured into the IMAP folders again yesterday after prompting on this thread. Something is broken. I tried reset mask on multiple occasions, followed by refresh.. and I only got a full folder listing *once*. When I tried to reproduce it again.. I even lost the inbox. When I closed the form however TB! quietly forgot all my changes are restored the 2 IMAP folders I've had in place since 1.54 (early beta).. Inbox & Sent Folders. It completely forgot my changes. > What do you mean by all OK? This part has not been changed for years, > so I do not understand how it comes that the previous release shows > something different. All in all, everything works as expected here and > I see no difference from the 1.53 version. Perhaps this is true. However something isn't right. I'll sent you a load of image offline to show the point. To "fix" the problem, you have to reset the mask, close the entire "view messages on server" interaction, go BACK into this interaction, toggle subscribed only - THEN the other folders re-appeared. However if you close the interaction and go back in again - they have gone ;-) Basically - there is a problem. The GUI never was that intuitive.. it plain doesn't work now. regards, Graham Using The Bat! 1.60 RC/2 under Windows NT 4.0 (Build 1381, Service Pack 6) _ Archives : http://tbbeta.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Bugs/Wishes: https://bt.ritlabs.com/
