Re: Registration question and more...

This another example of the nerd mentality at RitLabs

I love TheBat!, but suffer with the inability to have all messages
stored in the same
directory if I so wish.

 -- This is a snap in Netscape 4.7x and Mozilla, and it works in both
directions 

I seem to remember a promise from Ritlabs that 2.xx would support this
feature.

So now I am stuck with an unregistered copy if I go past 2.0 Beta 1
without any explanation?

Ritlabs needs to become customer friendly and the registrations would
explode.

At this time Thebat! is not a user friendly program.

? Why can't I just clear the trash ??

 Hello Neal,

 N Sorry if old topic,
 
 This is a touchy subject, so I'll only comment on:
 
 N but couldn't see this subject in the archives.
 
 Hmm, I found a number of threads very quickly:

 http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg29498.html

 http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg29466.html
 
 Those are only the first messages of the threads and I think I
 probably missed a few.  They were all on the first page of the
 archive.

Hello Neal,

On Saturday, August 23, 2003 at 7:01 PM, Neal heard voices say:

 This another example of the nerd mentality at RitLabs

Um, what is the nerd mentality?
 - If you're talking about the registration policy, I won't discuss
   that.
 - If you found my reply rude or curt, then I apologize, but this
   subject has been beaten to a pulp and then some.
 - If you think I work for RITLabs, please be advised that except for
   a couple of people on this list, nobody can speak officially for
   RITLabs. 

 I love TheBat!, but suffer with the inability to have all messages
 stored in the same directory if I so wish.

Why not?  Use a simple outgoing filter to filter your mail to the
Inbox and you'll have exactly what you want.  That's what I do for any
mail that doesn't have an obvious home in my folder structure.

 I seem to remember a promise from Ritlabs that 2.xx would support this
 feature.

I don't understand what feature is supposedly missing, but we are only
on version 2.0 beta 3, so they could have a number of releases before
the v2.xx promise is broken.

 So now I am stuck with an unregistered copy if I go past 2.0 Beta 1
 without any explanation?

The best post I've seen to date (granted, I haven't read them all)
is:
http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg29632.html

And based on the content of that message, I'm not replying again to
this thread.  If you want to discuss your concern about that missing
feature, please start a new thread.

 At this time Thebat! is not a user friendly program.

I disagree, but then this topic has been rehashed a million times on
TBUDL, so again I won't comment on this point.  I have not
participated on TBUDL for quite some time, so I can't say when this
discussion has last been heard, but I'm sure a generous soul could
help us locate a thread or two in the archive.

 ? Why can't I just clear the trash ?? 

From the Beta 3 release notes:

,-- [ http://www.ritlabs.com/download/the_bat/beta/tb200b03.txt ]
| [-] The Empty Trash folder on Exit was ignored
`--

Or is there some other problem?  Again, answer this question in a new
thread.  The subject on this one was moved to TBOT by the moderators.
See link above for details.
