  Curious... I receive mail from four yahoo group mailing lists through

   I receive from five lists - less than five messages the last year were
   spam. One of the lists; [EMAIL PROTECTED] shifted +47.000 (!)

Working with a Collect Account


 Actually my current ISP allows for it, but that's a Dutch cable
 provider, so it's not really a solution for you. ;-)

Why? Can you explain?


 That might be the best solution. IIRC gmx supports it, but that's
 only secondhand for me, I never tried them.

Please no GMX!


 But you can use the additional accounts for sending only.
EC Ah you mean having a real Account set up with all the Login and Send
EC parameters.
 Yes.

At least for the moment this would be the fastest solution.


 I've checked postcastserver last year and it seemed reliable.

You have any URL please?

Firewalls compatible with The Bat. Was: Question

2002-07-31 Thread Avram Sacks

Hi, Sudip.   On 7/22/02 at 8:18 p.m.  you wrote:

I used ZA but after it started screwing things in TB!, I removed it.
After much searching and many trials, I've come to settle on Agnitum
Outpost Pro Firewall. Have no problem with it so far. There's also a
freeware version available.

Do you know which version of ZA you used and can you be a little more
specific regarding what problems you had.  A technology consultant for law
firms is recommending to  me that I use ZoneAlarm Pro and she believes that
its newest version has probably resolved issues that caused it to interfere
with The Bat and as well as with VPNs.  She also warned that Tiny/Kerio is
harder to decipher unless you are a sophisticated user.  She didn't comment
about Outpost however.
Thanks.

 Another suggestion for Eddie: Try to find an ISP that offers
 international roaming (for example using gric).

  Copy one rule after the other into Notepad - when finished, Select
  All in Notepad and Copy, then go back to TB and paste the rules into
  where you want them.

  Note 1: You might lose the Rule Names (defaulting to New Rule)!

  Note 2: If there are other rules at place where you want to copy your
  new rules, the copied rules will be pasted into positions below the
  existing rules and you will have to move them up and down in the list.

Hi Avram,

On Wed, 31 Jul 2002 01:59:56 -0500 GMT (Jul 31, 12:44 my local time),
you [AS] wrote

AS Do you know which version of ZA you used

I don't specifically but I upgraded to the latest version (mid May I
think) and still had problems.

AS can you be a little more specific regarding what problems you had

It would automatically rename incoming attachments, changing their
file extensions. Oddly enough, this almost always occurred if the
sender used Eudora ! Furthermore, the problem was not TB! specific, my
copy of Pocomail was also affected. Extremely lousy, slow and
lackadaisical tech support of ZA told me to disable Mail Safe settings
but that didn't help either.

In few cases it was just a matter of manually changing the renamed
file extension to its original state. But, on more than few occasions,
ZA corrupted the attachments, rendering them useless ! Once, nearly
costing my job !!

AS A technology consultant for law firms is recommending to me that I
AS use ZoneAlarm Pro

I would *definitely* not. Apart from my own problem, there are many
horror stories floating around this list.

AS she believes that its newest version has probably resolved issues
AS that caused it to interfere with The Bat and as well as with VPNs

Can't comment on that but I ain't going back to ZA. Once bitten, and
twice shy !

AS She also warned that Tiny/Kerio is harder to decipher unless you
AS are a sophisticated user

Yeah lot more user intervention and tuning skill is required for Kerio

AS She didn't comment about Outpost however

Well, it works perfectly for me. I think BlackICE is also nice, but it
was missing few features, namely ad  active content blocking, that
Outpost has. For full listing of Outpost's feature and to compare it
with other firewalls, follow the Agnitum webpage link below:

2002-07-31 Thread Erik Janssen

Hi Sudip, Avram,

I use Zone Alarm Pro (as fas as I know the latest version) and do
_not_ have any problems that I am aware of. My OS is Windows XP
Professional and I am using McAfee Total Virus Defence with it (also
without _any_ problems).

What I do remember (you are also referring to that) is some renaming
of attachments (the file extentions). When I disabled the Mail-Safe
settings everything worked fine at my system. Might have a look at
home this evening to check my settings and what changes if a play
something with Mail-Safe. The only thing I know (which is confirmed in
a Dutch PC magazine) is that ZA loads very slow and is more then a
minute slower than another FW (forgot the name).

Erik

Yes, depending on what the ISP is filtering for. Mine was searching simply
for The Bat!, so anything not matching that exact string was allowed to
pass (e.g., The!, TB!, The-Bat!, The_Bat!, etc.)

But that sound better.


 After you should rename all source and target folders.

No need ;-)

I now did it that way:
   - Created first new Account
   - Moved the folders to the new Account
   - Closed TB!
   - Copy 'account.srx' from old to now Account
   - Restart TB!  -- here it is.

Note I  : as I have moved the Folders from the old Account to the new
  one TB!'s Filter tool adjusted the path. After copying
  the.srx File TB! recognized he is in an other Account and
  striped the account name that was first part of the Filter.
Note II : even if you're not moving the folders from the old Account
  to the new one 'and' you want to use the Filters from old
  account, create equal folder Structure as in the old
  Account. 'Then' you can copy the '.srx' file to the new
  Account folder.
  If your Folder Structure must be adjusted you can now do so
  and the filter System will adjust the folder path for you.

Thanks for your help :-)

Hallo Eddie,

EC Why? Can you explain?

This was about an ISP that allowed for any outgoing e-mail address
just if you connected via their network. As you're interested in a
movable account in Africa, you shouldn't care about a company
providing only fixed connections via an infrastructure in a small part
of the Netherlands.


 But you can use the additional accounts for sending only.
EC Ah you mean having a real Account set up with all the Login and Send
EC parameters.
 Yes.
EC At least for the moment this would be the fastest solution.

That's right, only thing faster is a smarthost that receives
everything.

 I've checked postcastserver last year and it seemed reliable.

Corrupted MESSAGES file

2002-07-31 Thread Spike

Hello fellow Batters,

I am experiencing a problem with a message folder file which
contains over 2GB of mails (with attachments) which has become
corrupted somehow.  I did the 'normal' thing when this happens
which may have been a serious mistake.  I was able to see the
messages, but the filter for the folder could not place any new
messages in it.  I deleted the IDX file for the folder and tried
to re-index the file.  No dice! I also can not see any of the
messages previously listed in this folder anymore. :-(

I then tried to create another folder and COPY the file to that
folder. NO DICE!! It gives me a file error (file fails CRC).

Any suggestions on how I can possibly recover the over 1.5GB of
graphics attachments that I have not had time to extract and
save?  This is over FOUR MONTHS (2023 messages) of posts to a
mailing list.  I am running WIN2K SP2, and FAT32 file system, not
NTFS, as I upgraded from WIN98SE.  I have had absolutely no
errors like this since the upgrade.

Running TB 1.60h personal.  Is there anything like a utility to
repair a corrupted MESSAGES file?  I have seen such utilities for
other similar apps.  Folder Refresh and Account Refresh Folders
functions have no effect.

FixSigs RegExp question/problem

2002-07-31 Thread Jonathan Angliss

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

Hi,

I'm playing with the Fixing Signatures regexp on the FAQ site, and I
tried to add another line so that it strips out Outlook added reply
formatting, as a lot of my contacts use it.  Here is what it looks
like:

%quotes='%SETPATTREGEXP=(?is)((\s*)?\n?-BEGIN PGP %-
SIGNED.*?\n(Hash:.*?\n)?\s*)?(.*?)(^(-*?\s*?--\s*\n|%-
_{40,}\s*\n|%-
\n-BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE.*s?\n|%-
- \s*Orig.*?|%-
- -+\s+.*roups.*~--\)|%-
\n+Get your FREE download|%-
\z)%REGEXPBLINDMATCH=%text%SUBPATT=4'

You can see the \s*Orig.*? section has been added.  In the
RegExpTester listed on the site, this matches the Outlook reply
headers:

- - Original Message -
- Original Message
-  Original Message 

And other permutations of that too.  Why is it not working when listed
in this format?

matches the RegExp tester.  This would mean it could match:

MailSafe is a 'feature' that allows you to alter the extension of file
names so that a simple double click from the attachment cannot launch
it.  This means you have to think before you open the file, as you had
to save it to disk, then rename the attachment's extension, and then
execute it, by which time, I guess the developers have assumed, if you
are willing to go to those lengths, then you must trust the file, if
not, then you were given ample messing about to realize that it may
not be a good idea.

 Is it the job of this firewall to make attachments useless?

Not useless as such, just unclickable from the attachments menu in
most email clients.  Save to disk, then rename, and the attachment is
fine again, and can behave exactly as originally designed.

 Not sure, Depending on how TB stores the messages in the message

 that would work, but it might be worth a try.

Unless the original offender is SecureBat, the files are stored as

Re: Firewalls compatible with The Bat. Was: Question

2002-07-31 Thread Erik Janssen

Hello Thomas,

TF Pardon me for being ignorant, but was does this Mail-Safe function in
TF ZA do? What I can figure from the list, it changes attachment names,
TF so that they cannot be opened any more. May make sense for OE/OL
TF users, but then, how do *they* open attachments at all?

TF Is it the job of this firewall to make attachments useless?

I might hope not! It just seems not to work well for everybody who
uses it or not everybody uses it correct.

According to the help-file of ZA it should do the following:
(sorry for the gigantic message!)

/-[ MailSafe Setting ]-
| Use the radio buttons to turn MailSafe on or off.
|
| If On is selected, the attachment types configured in the
| Attachments panel will be quarantined.
| If Off is selected, no attachments will be quarantined
\-

/-[ E-mail protection ]-
| ZoneAlarm Pro's MailSafe™ feature protects you from new viruses,
| worms, and other malware distributed in e-mail attachments. It also
| protects you from any old, known threats.
|
| The problem with attachments
| Attaching files to e-mail messages is a convenient way of exchanging
| information.
|
| However, it also provides hackers with an easy way of spreading
| viruses, worms, Trojan horse programs, and other malware. For
| example, the infamous Love Bug worm was distributed as a Visual
| Basic Script (.VBS) file
|
| Fortunately, only certain types of attachments can contain
| potentially dangerous code. These attachments types can be
| identified by their filename extensions.
\-

/-[ About filename extensions ]-
| Filename extensions are the characters that appear after the dot
| in a file name. They identify the file type so that the appropriate
| program or system component can open it. Here are some examples:
|  .EXE (an executable file)
|  .JS (a javascript file)
|  .BAT (a batch process file)
|
| Tip It's a good idea never to open an e-mail attachment unless you
| know the person it came from, and have confirmed (by phone or
| separate e-mail message) that that person actually sent it to you.
| Remember hackers can alter an e-mail message to look like it came
| from a friend!
\-
 
/-[ The MailSafe quarantine ]-
| ZoneAlarm Pro's MailSafe protects you by 'quarantining' e-mail
| attachments that may contain malicious code.
| When an e-mail with an attachment arrives...
| MailSafe examines the attachment's filename extension.
|
| If that extension (in the example at right, .BAT) is in MailSafe's
| quarantine list, ZoneAlarm Pro changes the filename extension to
| .zl* (where * is a number or letter.)
|
| Changing the filename extension 'quarantines' the attachment by
| keeping it from running automatically.
|
| When you open the e-mail containing the attachment...
| ZoneAlarm Pro displays a MailSafe alert to let you know it has
| quarantined the attachment. Click OK to close the alert box.
|
| When you try to open the attachment...
| ZoneAlarm Pro warns you of the potential risk in opening the
| attachment. If you're sure the file is harmless and you want to open
| it, click the Run button. You can also save the file for later.
|
| Tip Users who know how to read code can click Inspect with Notepad
| to examine the code of attachment itself.
\-

Erik

Re: Firewalls compatible with The Bat. Was: Question

2002-07-31 Thread ETM

When using ZA, disabling Mail-Safe is essential to avoid the renaming of
executable attachments.  I have never had a problem renaming them
so I could run an AV scan and then open them.

 What I do remember (you are also referring to that) is some renaming
 of attachments (the file extentions). When I disabled the Mail-Safe
 settings everything worked fine at my system. snip

It is a optional feature of ZA and does not have to be used.  It
changes the file extension to an easily-identified ZA file
extension and the attachment can be renamed and opened.  Simply
unchecking the option eliminates the feature.

 Pardon me for being ignorant, but was does this Mail-Safe function in
 ZA do? What I can figure from the list, it changes attachment names,
 so that they cannot be opened any more. May make sense for OE/OL
 users, but then, how do *they* open attachments at all?

If I understand you correctly, with ZA one must disable a feature that is
supposed to automatically detect any and all attachments to an e-mail,
whether apparent or not, in order for ZA to work for Bat users?   Isn't that
a pain?  What about other firewalls?  What do they do with attachments?

Re: Firewalls compatible with The Bat. Was: Question

2002-07-31 Thread ETM

Because I am using the free current version of ZA, it only offers
mail protection against VBS attachments and it has never
interfered with TheBat.  When I was using Outlook Express, I used
the paid version of ZA-Pro and it offered protection against 45
additional mail attachments (.exe, .com, .scr, etc.).  I thought
it was a mighty nice safeguard with OE smile.  When using TheBat
I have not felt the need to purchase the additional protection,
although I do allow it to protect against the VBS.  I am not sure
I necessarily see it as an impediment to using this particular
firewall, not even sure the VBS protection is necessary with TB,
but since it doesn't interfere, I let it run.

OCCLIST when using AB nickname

2002-07-31 Thread Joseph N.

I just sent out an email with one person in the To: field and a list
of people in the cc: field.  The list comprised all the people in one
AB group.  In the contact field, I entered the nickname of the group,
which then appeared, in addition to the term list, as in
nicknamelist.

One of the cc: recipients changed addresses, so I forwarded the
message to her.  My forwarding template did not include the cc:
recipients, so I added a line reading %OCCLIST.  What appeared in
that field on the forwarded email was nicknamelist, not the list
of cc: recipients.

It's clear why that is happening, but it shouldn't work like that.  On
the original message, the actual cc: recipients would appear in the
headers for each recipient.  I wanted this recipient to also see that
list.  However, the only way to make that happen seems to be to avoid
using nicknames all the time as a precaution, instead going into the
AB and clicking to include all of the group members in the appropriate
field.

Comments?

Re: Corrupted MESSAGES file

2002-07-31 Thread Mark Wieder

Try compressing the offending folder (after making a backup copy, of
course) to see if that helps. If you *do* manage to recover the
emails, you might consider reconfiguring your mail accounts to save
attachments in a separate folder, so at least they're not trashed if
the mail archive goes grobbling off. The only times I've had a
corrupted mail folder are when I had attachments stored inline, or had
changed storage midstream and older messages were still stored inline.

The thought of a 2GB mail archive scares the living daylights out of
me. Almost as much as the thought of going four months without making
a backup...

It isn't a full-blown dedicated mailserver since it will not provide
features that a typical mailserver will. It however, can be made to
take on the role of a mail server in the setting where you have
machines on an LAN with no access to the internet and you wish to get
mail to the TB! clients on them. You could run a mailserver on the
server connected to the internet, or you could run a copy of TB! in
dial-out server mode. In this state, you can download mail to accounts
on the server installation and then the clients can fetch mail from
the server installation accounts. TB! on the server will also act as
an SMTP relay server (it's not an SMTP server that will do direct mail
deliveries). It's fairly limited in scope but may very well serve the
needs of many on a network.

The help files contain documentation on this. In the TB! menus, go to
Options/Network and Administration, then hit the help button on the
configuration panel.

TB! merely sends requests to the default browser. If you don't have a
browser properly setup as the default, then this function will not
work.

Does clicking on URL's other external applications work in your

I'd reinstall the browser or manually check the file associations via

Allie,

I'll tell you what I have and what I need. I have 4 machines networked here
at home. I currently am hosting my own website and want to host my own
mail server to pull mail from the internet instead of using my ISP's mail
server. I would also send mail to the other machines on the network here.
Mind you, this is not a high volume setup.

Would I have to have a mail server program installed to do what I want

TF Is it the job of this firewall to make attachments useless?

EJ According to the help-file of ZA it should do the following:
EJ (sorry for the gigantic message!)

We might have to move this to TBOT soon. But thanks for the info.

EJ /-[ MailSafe Setting ]-
EJ | Use the radio buttons to turn MailSafe on or off.
EJ |
EJ | If On is selected, the attachment types configured in the
EJ | Attachments panel will be quarantined.

From what I figure, ZA does not quarantine anything. It just changes
the file extensions.

EJ /-[ E-mail protection ]-
EJ | ZoneAlarm Pro's MailSafe™ feature protects you from new viruses,
EJ | worms, and other malware distributed in e-mail attachments. It also
EJ | protects you from any old, known threats.

Right. By changing the extensions. I know another way: delete all
mails automatically. It is the best protection against viruses.

EJ | The problem with attachments
EJ | Attaching files to e-mail messages is a convenient way of exchanging

EJ |
EJ | However, it also provides hackers with an easy way of spreading

Provided the recipient uses OE/OL, of course.

EJ | Tip It's a good idea never to open an e-mail attachment unless you
EJ | know the person it came from, and have confirmed (by phone or
EJ | separate e-mail message) that that person actually sent it to you.
EJ | Remember hackers can alter an e-mail message to look like it came
EJ | from a friend!
EJ \-

Correct. Then why does OE/OL offers this iFrame thingy that allows
Klez to open automatically? And again, since when is it the job of a
firewall to protect against viruses?

EJ /-[ The MailSafe quarantine ]-
EJ | ZoneAlarm Pro's MailSafe protects you by 'quarantining' e-mail
EJ | attachments that may contain malicious code.
EJ | When an e-mail with an attachment arrives...
EJ | MailSafe examines the attachment's filename extension.

And this is what annoys me greatly. I doesn't examine the mail. It has
no database of virus patterns or signatures. It just blondly changes
file extensions of certain files. What a big load of unprofessionality.

EJ | Tip Users who know how to read code can click Inspect with Notepad
EJ | to examine the code of attachment itself.

Right. I can read the code of .exe files and easily spot some 20,000
virus signatures.

Re: OCCLIST when using AB nickname

2002-07-31 Thread Januk Aggarwal

Hello Joseph,

It was foretold that on Wednesday, July 31, 2002 at 19:01 GMT -0500,
Joseph N. [JN] would type:

JN It's clear why that is happening, but it shouldn't work like that.  On
JN the original message, the actual cc: recipients would appear in the
JN headers for each recipient.  I wanted this recipient to also see that
JN list.  However, the only way to make that happen seems to be to avoid
JN using nicknames all the time as a precaution, instead going into the
JN AB and clicking to include all of the group members in the appropriate
JN field.

Yup, it's a bit of an annoying feature, though it can prove useful if
you send the same message to the same list several times.  One way of
avoiding the problem is to BCC yourself, then keep the message that
comes through your mail server.

If you wish for mail to be delivered directly to you without the use

adequate. You'll need a specialist mail server. TB! will only fetch
mail from remote POP accounts and then distribute them to the clients

PM I would also send mail to the other machines on the network here.

TB! in server mode should be adequate here.

If you are managing mail for your domain and wish to distribute mail
to accounts for each domain address, then TB! as a server will not be
adequate.

It's role is a very simple one. It will download mail from remote POP
accounts and send mail for clients that are unable to do so because
they have no internet connection.

PM Mind you, this is not a high volume setup.

Volume isn't really the issue as such since you could be receiving a
large volume of mail and yet your mailserving needs are simple enough
for TB! to comfortably act as the mail server on your network. In the
same way, you could have a low volume setup and yet need a specialist
mail server because of the features you need that TB! in server mode
will not deliver.

Re[3]: Mail Server

2002-07-31 Thread Kurgan

Hello Pete,

PM Would I have to have a mail server program installed to do what I want
PM instead of using TB!?

   You could use TB and BatPost together to achieve your server.
   I'm using BatPost right now to send this message, and it's not even
   installed on my machine. I've got it installed on a friend's server
   300 miles away (I use it to get around a port 25 block --I just set
   it for port 26!). :) The biggest problem I've had is simply
   figuring out how to keep it up and running. If my friend's server
   gets rebooted, I have to manually log on to the system (remotely)
   and fire up BP (and then start it). I'd dearly love to figure out
   how to make it do everything automatically, but haven't found a way
   yet.

 Not sure, Depending on how TB stores the messages in the message
 base you might be able to recover them by running the message base
 through a program like uudecode or a similar program. Not certain
 that would work, but it might be worth a try.

 Unless the original offender is SecureBat, the files are stored as
 plain text with a set of characters at the end of each email to act as
 a mail separator.

Ok, I just tried this on my own message base. I used Fastcode32
(http://www.angelfire.com/ca/kent/frame.html) and it worked. (Of
course my message base isn't 2GB in size though...)

Another neat little trick is to change the extension of the
message.tbb file to .uue. Now you can open it using WinZip. (I'd
recommend trying this method first as it is incredibly simple if it
works.)

Assuming that most of the message base is still intact and as (the
other) Jonathan pointed out, that he wasn't using SecureBat the OP
should be able to get at least some of his files out.

Re[2]: Mail Server

2002-07-31 Thread Kurgan

Hello Allie,


ACM Why not create an shortcut in the programs/startup menu? Is there no
ACM CLI parameter to 'start' it up? If not, you could install PowerPro on
ACM your friends server and then use a macro that is executed on the
ACM machines startup. It would fire up the batpost and then 'start' it. :)

I must admit my ignorance for Windows NT. I'm learning as I go,
but so far there appears to be no way to add the program as a
service so it starts with the system. The server is set up so
there are 'desktops' for various users, with each of us remoting
in via a Terminal Services Client. Some programs install
themselves as services, such as Argo's mail server, but neither I
nor my friend can find a way to do it manually. Even if we could
find an area to autorun the program (each desktop has it's own
Startup folder that executes with the individual's log-in) when
the system starts, the program also needs to be started after
it's already been activated. In other words, when you run it, it's
sits idle until told to begin monitoring for mail. I do find it
ironic, in an almost humorous way, that the traditional hard part
was overcome easily (setup  config), and the program functions
well, but the normally easy thing (getting the darned thing to
start by itself) is the problem area. I'll laugh later... :)
   One other interesting point. I installed another mail server
(Argo, as mentioned) as the primary, and am using BatPost as my
private smtp engine to get around a port 25 block, so having BP
start with my desktop (so no one else could see it) would be fine
with me. However, we also haven't found a way to get a desktop to
autostart with the system. They only seem to be able to start when
someone logs in. And even *then* I'm still facing the program's
secondary activation, which it apparently needs to have done
manually. I could, of course, locate another server program, but I
really do like several factors of BP. First, it's by Ritlabs,
secondly it's really small, but fully-functional, and finally, I
can turn off pop scanning and use it strictly as an smtp engine.
Ideal for my purposes. I'm gonna tough this one out if it kills
me! :)

Yes, changing the extension to uue makes Winzip think it is one big

etc.) and each attachment is also listed as a separate file. Just
select the file you want and extract it.
