I always find it easier to manage the SPAM from Message Despatcher and my Inbox. Anything that gets past the Message Despatcher gets sifted from my Inbox straight away. It is very easy to see the SPAM when you have the majority of your email filtered to specific mailboxes. Just a matter of 'mailbox discipline' in ridding yourself of it when it arrives I suppose, even though it is annoying. An extra tip: Set up a mailbox in TB! called something like 'Dullard'. Everywhere you visit that you don't want email from use this email address when prompted dullard@ Filter it out before it hits your hard disk! It doesn't exactly reduce the SPAM as such but it enables you to manage it quickly. By the way, I have also reduced my SPAM by 50% nowadays. Also, ISPs should be doing a bit more to allow filtering at their end. Would send out a message to SPAM churners as well. Slan, Simon mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Lhomme est bien insensé.

Incoming messages while reading a folder
Hello, I wonder if anyone else has noticed this bug. Let me set things up by describing my setup. I have individual folders for my mailing lists, and mail from those lists are automatically filtered into those folders. When I read mail, I use the preview pane, with the focus on the message list so I can use that Ctrl-] feature. I also keep my messages threaded by references. I also tend to read most of my mail while online, and periodical checking turned on. Note that I have a LAN connection, so I don't use any of the DUN settings for TB or Windows. Now on to the problem. When I am viewing my messages, I use the ALT-Up/down arrows to scroll the message. When new mail comes into the folder, each new message is immediately selected. It is as if I had gone through my folder and selected multiple messages using Ctrl-left mouse click. Anyone know why this is happening? It is rather annoying, especially when I go to reply. I end up getting reply windows for 4 or 5 messages. Currently, the only way to deselect the messages is to use the mouse to click on some other message then select the one I was reading before. -- Thanks, Januk [EMAIL PROTECTED] Using The Bat! 1.39 under Windows 98 4.10 Build A -- -- View the TBUDL archive at http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBUDL, double click here and send the message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org
