I would like to know what is the purpose. Why would you want TB (or

Dear Simon, 

S BTW: It is a weird way of dragging folders. Having to drop the
S folder you want moved onto the folder where you want to move it to
S whilst holding the key down.

Well, dragging a folder when I wanted to simply select it seems more
weird to me :-)  I hate this "feature" of Windows interface...

 I am sure Allie and the rest have their reasons but my reason for
 wanting such a feature is because i am used to it being that way
 with Email progs such as OE and Eudora. It's just habit i guess.
 Maybe they can have an option for that.

I have a different POV, Alex. I see the icon animation as an
indicator of new mail, very much like what the ticker is. Note that
each folder has the option to show unread messages in the mail ticker.
It's this type of thing that interests me more. I have another
account, the messages for which are never really important. I would
sure like to make this accounts new messages *not* animate the bat
icon. I would love if my spam folders new messages didn't animate the
bat icon as well. :)

IOW's, I would prefer if the option to animate the TB! icon
was made account specific instead of global.

Correct. A virus some code, and virus scanners detect this particular

scanning the HD or when the codes comes in via modem or LAN.

That's what PC-Cillin does for me. I have "Realtime Scan" enabled.
This will check everything that comes in via modem or LAN (or copied
from other drives, I think). I have had emails coming in with infected
attachments (anything but text/plain is an attachment IMHO), and it
caught it. Sure, this Realtime Scan option slows downloading down, but
I usually web-surf at the same time, and you never know what people
put on their sites. I only disable it if I download a large file from
a known site, and will not do anything else while downloading.

Had a virus before. Been there. Don't need it again. ;-)

AGP caught it, but if I had forwarded it someone else would have

   my ICQ (99b v 3.19 build#2969, is the lastest), regardless of my

I am using ICQ 99b beta.v3.17 build #2565. I can try to help?

Go into your preferences, make sure the

top". I have the "Autohide delay" DISABLED (NOT ticked) and the
"Make contact list pop up upon incoming event" DISABLED... I need to

Re[3]: Anti virus software and The Bat!

2000-04-10 Thread Mark R Harding

Christian,

Regarding your message dated: Monday, April 10, 2000...

CD What I am looking for though is having the scanner actually scan the
CD mail on it's way in (or out for that matter) and intervene if they are
CD infected (some scanners also tag the mails as well with some text
CD telling they are clean).

I know just the thing to do this although there is one area of
'overlap' which I'll explain in a second...

There is a product called "Invisimail" which is designed more for the
invisible encryption/decryption of messages that you send and receive.
It uses the RPK algorithm which is basically as good as the PGP
algorithm since they both use more-or-less the same mathematical
problem as their basis.  However, since TB! has builtin support for
PGP this is not such a bonus.  However, it does also have builtin
anti-virus support and it automatically 'quarentines' infected mail in
a separate area to avoid system contamination.

The way invisimail works is quite elegant and is suitable for
(probably) any mail client that uses POP3 or IMAP.  Basically,
invisimail sets up a proxy on your machine which you give the details
of your POP3/IMAP/SMTP servers to.  You tell your mail client (TB! for
example) that your POP3/IMAP/SMTP servers have the address...

 proxy.yourmachine.com  (or whatever!)

Then when you try to send/receive mail TB! sends its signals/requests
to invisimail believing it to be a true server and invisimail
'invisibly' passes these across to the real servers.  It it detects
that you are sending/receiving from another invisimail user it will
automatically compress and/or encrypt the messages/attachments too.

I tried the demo version of this last year and was highly impressed.
It really does work invisibly and it did catch one of those 'worm'
virus mails (Melissa I think it was called) sent out by some poor
person using Outlook's address book who was therefore unaware they had
done so...

You may or may not like it yourself but if you want to find out more
goto...

   http://www.invisimail.com/

Cheers,

Mark

 Had a virus before. Been there. Don't need it again. ;-)

So did I.  In my ~14 years of computing I've had 1 virus sent to me
through Fido-Net netmail and one I caught, I think, from a disgruntled
coworker who was giving me some files before I left the company.  In the first
case it never got to infect since it was such a lame attempt at an attack it
wasn't even funny.  "Here, run this!"  Small 2k .COM file.  Yeah, right.  In
the latter case it was an annoyance and didn't spread.  Had it cleaned up in
less than 20 minutes.

It is fairly trivial to avoid viruses.  Of course I'm not a likely vector
for any viruses to come my way.  About 1/2 my computing is on Linux.  The 1/2
that is on Windows is mostly games.  I don't use Microsoft office products
(prefer to stick to Star Office) so macro viruses don't get me and, clearly, I
don't use an email client which can be used to pass it on (*cough* Lookout!
*cough*).  I download only from reputable sites, don't open unknown binary
attachments from strangers and generally keep a sound mind on things.

IE, in three words (well, four): I'm computer savvy.

To me having a virus checker running constantly would be pissing me off.
In fact, at work, where it is policy, it does piss me off.  I'd rather be
running Linux so I know I'm not a vector instead of nearly being mandated on
being one.  Besides, I'm remembering why I like the console so much on Linux
boxes.  I'll be the sick one with 9 TTYs, each with screen and the possibility
of 9 virtual TTYs on each one.  A, 81 TTYs, controllable by sensible
keystrokes.  Anyway, I digress.  Point is, viruses are mostly a product of
hype and ignorance.  The mere fact you're running TB! cuts down your
possibility of being hit by one and being a vector of one a large amount.

Message downloading indicator box is off-screen

2000-04-10 Thread Chuck Mattsen

Not sure how this happened, nor how to remedy it ...

The little notification box that pops up when you check for new mail
(the one with the clock indicator and the analog left-to-right strip,
with "downloading message 3 of 30", etc.) is off screen ... well,
almost, I can see just the bottom of it, but cannot "grab" it to drag
it back down on screen (it's traveling off the top of the screen).

Anyone have an idea of how to grab it and get it back down where it
belongs  (I've tried changing screen resolution, running in various
TB! modes (full screen, minimized, etc.) ...

Is there a place in an .ini file where I can manually go in and change
the coordinates?

Chuck

SL In fact, at work, where it is policy, it does piss me off.

 So, how much does it really slow down your work? Or is it more a
 matter of principle?

It doesn't slow down my work but it doesn't help, either.  A majority of
my work at work is done through an exported X session and I run TB! for email.
I think I've opened Word like, uhm, twice?

IE, it is there, taking up RAM, taking up CPU cycles and it isn't doing
one lick of good.

Like I said, I'd love to be running Linux on this box right now since I am
much more productive in that environment for the work that I do.

Hi there!

about "Re[2]: Anti virus software and The Bat!":

Okay, guys, let's _stop_ finally introducing our own favourite antiviruses! If 
you really want to know, which AV tools are the best, go and look at the latest 
Virus Bulletin results. These can be found, for example, at www.drweb.ru 
(English version: www.sald.com). If you are lazy (like me;-)), I'll tell you: 
1. Dr.Web (99% of virii "in the wild")
2. AVP (approx. 99% of virii "in the wild" )
3. F-Prot (95%)
.
XXX. NAV (it's one of the worst: 90% of virii "in the wild").

But of course, if you want to get nice GUI rather then to scan for virii, then 
even WinAmp will very probably serve your needs;-))

 CD   Does anyone know if anti virus software exist that will check mail
 CD   delivered and sent from The Bat!? If not I would like to help make
 CD   sure it happens.
 
  I use Trend PC-Cillin. It has caught viruses (or viri?) sent to me by
  mail, ie to The Bat!. Maybe you want to change your AV scanner?
 
 When will have TB support for MAPI (version 2.0 of TB), AVG will have
 support for checking sent and received mails in TB :-))
 
 The antivirus product AVG is developed by distinguished czech company
 Grisoft from my town :-)
 
 Whole company uses The Bat! :-

 possibility of being hit by one and being a vector of one a large amount.

correct, one of the reasons I use the bat...and most of the time my
scanners are off...
It slows my system down.
I have no office installed, no outlook and no outlook express in use.

 You can specify the age by right clicking on the Mail Ticker.  Then
 Select Messages.  I don't know if it is the creation date or
 received, but my guess would be received.

 I seem to remember being able to configure more than this for the
 mailTicker, but maybe I'm mistaken.

Resend how.

2000-04-10 Thread Simon

A Chairde,

 How does Re-send work? Shift-F6.

 I select a message in the message pane, and then hit Shift+F6. Nope. Open
 the message and select Re-send from the menu, yes. Why is there not a
 Re-send on the context R/C context menu? Re-direct, yes! No Re-send.

 Just curious about this feature as I have been using Re-send from the menu a
 lot lately due to stupid SMTP problems that I can't figure out...probably
 ISP woes.

 Anyhow, here's hoping this gets to the List before the next millennium -
 unlikely at the moment.

Chuck, don't you find that:

1) E-Mail Scanning with NAV eats up a huge chunk of System Resources?
2) I heard that using 127.0.0.1 had an inherent security risk?

reading mail

2000-04-10 Thread Chris VanHonk

Hello Bat-sters

One strange behavior I have noticed using TB is when
reading a message. If you want to scroll using the up and
down buttons, one must place the cursor at the top or bottom
of the page to save time as the scroll buttons won't scroll
the window until the cursor reaches the top or bottom of the
window. Does anyone know how to get around this?

hidden, I didn't find them at first either.

OK, when you open Help Topics, you have two tabs, the left one shows
you the chapter names, the right one lets you search. The search will
lead to nothing if you try searching for "regular expressions".

But there is a chapter for Regular Expressions under the first tab,
just scroll down.

Sorry I don't know what the tabs' names are, they are all written in
Chinese. ;-)
