RE: IMAP not emptying Folders?
Rick rick.grunwald.groupm...@gmail.com rašė: I have a Gmail IMAP account. I will clear out the SPAM and TRASH folders so there is nothing left, yet if I go to the account with the web interface, there are a LOT of items left I have tried emptying these folders both with CONTROL DEL on the folder and by highlighting all the messages and deleting them Any ideas? This bug exist since version 5.0 alpha or so. You have to use Compact instead of Purge/Purge+Compact, then it works. Has this been entered into bug tracker (lately) I couldn't find it. I will put it in if you want but it was YOUR fix that saved the day Do as you like. But then again, I see no point in that, IMAP bugs are never fixed anyway. I stopped reporting those after all bug tracker database was lost, which one would argue is the second most serious disaster in development after the source code loss. -- Vilius Current beta is 5.1.6.15 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Tab order (multiple dialogs)
Listmembers: For some time now I've noticed that quite some of TB!'s dialogs have a tab order that is far from logical. For example, look at these two pages from the folder properties dialog: 'General' page Press tab: no idea where I am now, no control appears active, arrows or keys (except Enter) have no effect Press tab: you land on 'Name' (correct) Press tab: you land on 'Parent folder' (correct) Press tab: you land on 'Browse' (correct) Press tab: jumps to 'Copy to...' (illogical) Press tab: you land on 'Edit View Mode' (logical from last position) Press tab: jumps back to 'Show unread messages on MailTicker(tm) (illogical) Press tab: goes to 'Use folder-specific print settings' (logical from last position) Now, make sure that this option is selected, the next tab should go to the 'Print Settings' button, but: Press tab: jumps to 'Column settings' selection list (illogical) Press tab: jumps to 'Default charset' selection list (illogical, but considering that 'Copy to' and 'Edit View Mode' were already visited, this is to be expected now). Press tab: jumps back to 'Print Settings' (illogical) Press tab: goes to 'Quick reply settings' (logical) This completes the controls in this page of the dialog. Further tabs go to 'OK', 'Cancel', 'Help', and 'Watched by...' in that order, where you could argue that maybe 'Watched by...' should have come first. After tabbing through the buttons at the bottom, you are returned to the page selection list on the left. 'Additional' page First tab once again goes to no-mans land. The next few tabs are logical for 'Directory', 'Browse' and 'Clear'. The next tab jumps to 'Remove old messages', logically followed by 'Compact folder' Assuming the checkboxes for both 'Maximum number of stored messages' and 'Keep messages in the base for (days)' are checked: The next tab makes the illogical jump to the number of stored messages. The next tab makes the illogical jump to the number of days to keep messages in the base. The next tab jumps back to the checkbox for Maximum number of stored messages. The next tab jumps forward to the checkbox for 'Keep messages in the base for (days)' I have also seen dialogs where the tab order has suddenly changed from what it used to be for no apparent reason. For instance, when editing a contact and going to the group membership dialog, Shift-Tab once used to land you on the list of groups, whereas it now makes the illogical jump to the 'New...' button. I cannot imagine that I'm the only one who is not in the habit of grabbing my mouse for every single dialog control that I want to go to. Can we please get a little more attention for these usability issues? It's small annoyances like this where programs behave different from what people expect that can make new users quickly dismiss a piece of software that they are evaluating. Note that these are just examples of dialogs where I have seen illogical tab orders. There are probably many more places where things like this are happening. Hopefully Ritlabs are not going to ask me to document every illogical tab order situation there is. -- Greetings, Maurice Windows 7 6.1 Build 7601 Service Pack 1 The Bat! v5.1.6.13; AJS v0.48; MyMacros 1.11a; Using OTFE with Aladdin eToken Pro 32k Current beta is 5.1.6.15 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Composing HTML email: Inconsistent styles
Hello Listmembers, This was previously reported in the bugtracker and it it has started to bug me sufficiently to report it again but I'd like confirmations before I do. I have tried set one message template to be all Arial font. When composing an HTML email, it starts in Arial but if you move around the email with the cursor, the font changes back to Courier. This has been bugging me for absolutely years so it's not the latest version nor anything new. It seems impossible to create a template that does not revert to Courier and at some place in the message despite the fact that Courier is not mentioned in the template. Here is the template. There is also an unclosed span at the end. I've also included the message created and sent. Does anyone else see this problem? == TEMPLATE == htmlhead /head body span style= font-family:'arial'; font-size: 9pt;Hello %TOFName,br br TESTING TEMPLATEbr br br %Cursorbr br span style= font-size: 8pt; color: #c0c0c0;i--nbsp;br Best regards,br nbsp;%FromFName nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp;/i/span/spana style= color: #c0c0c0; font-family:'arial'; font-size: 9pt; href=mailto:%FromAddr;mailto:%FromAddr/aspan style= font-family:'arial'; font-size: 9pt;nbsp;nbsp;/body/html MESSAGE htmlheadtitleTEST/title META http-equiv=3DContent-Type content=3Dtext/html; charset=3Diso-8859-15= /head body span style=3D font-family:'arial'; font-size: 9pt;Hello Tony,br br TESTING TEMPLATEbr br span style=3D font-family:'Courier New';HEllobr br br span style=3D font-family:'arial'; font-size: 8pt; color: #c0c0c0;i--= nbsp;br Best regards,br nbsp;Tony nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; = nbsp; nbsp; nbsp; nbsp;/i/span/span/spana style=3D color: #c0c= 0c0; font-family:'arial'; font-size: 9pt; href=3Dmailto:t...@parkinch.co.= ukmailto:t...@parkinch.co.uk/aspan style=3D font-family:'arial'; font= -size: 9pt;nbsp;nbsp;/body/html -- Best regards, Tony mailto:t...@parkinch.co.uk The Bat! 5.1.6.13 with IMAP on Windows XP 5.1.Service Pack 3 Build: 2600 Current beta is 5.1.6.15 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Re: IMAP not emptying Folders?
Hi, I stopped reporting those after all bug tracker database was lost, which one would argue is the second most serious disaster in development after the source code loss. 100% agree. You get fancy buttons and nice and shiny shit - but you get no working IMAP Clients. I guees they cant develop a good imap client because the code is to hard to rewrite. So they just ignore IMAP as long as possible. Current beta is 5.1.6.15 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
