Thanks Guys, the 'problem' was in Network and Administration

I had the account set up as a Dial Up Networking Connection. With no
connection active all the privilege check boxes were cleared, but as
soon as a dial up connection was active the check boxes were ticked!

I've changed for the network type to Manual Connection and

when I have a minute.

I'll get the hang of this administrator thing eventually 'cos I would

don't boot from a DOS floppy and reformat drive C (I believe you can't
do that when in XP, so you're safe there).

That's the only thing I don't like about this approach: WinXP (NT, 2K)
needs to put some system files on drive C. It makes backing up the
system a little more tricky.

 I think that approach, while it would work, has a specific risk and
 misses a specific opportunity.  I'm not a pro in this field, but from
 my user's perspective, it is best to boot a Windows machine from the
 C: drive.  That is what the OS expects, so that is where it looks for
 drivers, etc.

I'm no expert either, but my experience (and as I told David, I did this
all the time) shows that Win NT/2k/XP don't don't foolishly assume its
system to be on drive C. Especially after Win2k, it handles dual-boot
system pretty well.

Some APPs do make foolish assumptions, but they're getting rarer by the
day, I believe.

 I think you'd contain your risk now and into the
 future, and comply with the various programmers' expectations, by
 doing the following:  Purchase a disk ghosting/imaging software (like
 Norton Ghost or the main competitor, whose name I cannot recall right
 now);

DriveImage, I believe. And there's shareware/freeware.

 install and format a new D: drive; defrag and scandisk your c: drive;
 ghost the image of the entire c: drive to the d: drive; then format
 the c: drive and install XP.

This is good if you don't really need to go back and forth between two
systems during the transition. You see, leaving Win98 as it is may be
more than just keeping a safe backup plan (in case WinXP fails). The
transition could take weeks, or even months, that keeping the old system
as it is provides many advantages.

Of course, it all depends on how you like to proceed with the upgrade.
There's no one-size-fits-all answer for this, IMHO.

Error when sending mail

2002-12-06 Thread Nick Dutton
Hello,

I'm receiving the following intermittent error when trying to send SMTP mail
for immediate delivery:

  06/12/2002, 15:05:42: SEND  - sending mail messages - 1 messages in queue
 !06/12/2002, 15:05:43: SEND  - Server reports it is not ready, reply: 
  06/12/2002, 15:05:43: SEND  - connection finished - 0 messages sent
  06/12/2002, 15:05:43: SEND  - Some messages were not sent - check the log for 
details

I've been running TB! in parallel with OLXP for some time and only TB! seems
to suffer from (or rather report) this.  Note, this occurs when OL is not
running.

My SMTP server is mail.cix.co.uk which I know is a bit overloaded these
days, is there anything further that I can do to try and see where this
problem actually lies?

Yes I _am_ running Norton AV 2003, and it _is_ configured to scan outgoing
mail, and I do know how redundant this is, and I _do_ want to keep using it

I get these quite regularly during peak times (business hours),
although I use Pipex.  The underlying problem is a slow response from
the mail server, so it is not really a TB! problem.  What is a Bat!
problem is the fact that you cannot increase the timeout period - the
timeout in TB! is set to a shorter period than OL, and therefore
timeouts more often.

I also use NAV2003, but I am not aware of this contributing to the
problem, because it only scans once the connection to the server has
been established.

Query re use of generic email addresses

2002-12-06 Thread David Floyd
I hope some-one can tell me if this is possible.  I have now been 
searching for a couple of weeks for an answer with no luck. Also I find 
understanding Macros rather difficult.

I run a mailing list for a group of about 100 people which I set up 
about a year ago and mastered this using the examples provided in 
TheBat!

What I would like to do now is to provide generic email addresses to 
about 400 contacts on a web page.  I do not want their own email 
addresses to show on the web page.  What I need is (say) for an email 
like [EMAIL PROTECTED] where 'thiscontact' could be 1 of about 
400 and when the email is received in TB for it to be sent out 'as is' 
to the real recipient.

I can see how to do this one at a time with a filter, but I am wondering 
if there is a way to avoid having to have 400 filters, so the 
'thiscontact' can be looked up in the contacts address book and insert 
the appropriate recipient's address in the To:

Any help (in simple language) would be very much appreciated.

Thank you
David Floyd

With MM you can customize your posts to the people on you list such

Sorry, no that wasn't what I meant, I already have a mailing list up and 
running.

What I trying to do is redirect a message that comes in to a particular 
person e.g. a mail comes in addressed to (say)
Contact[EMAIL PROTECTED]
and TB redirects it to
Fred Bloggs[EMAIL PROTECTED]

That can be done using filter, but there could be up to 400 different 
addresses involved and I am wondering if somehow Contact can be looked 
up in the address book as a nickname and the relevant address then added 
to the To: in the redirected mail, otherwise it would mean setting up 
400 filters (rather cumbersome and I don't know if you could have that 
number of filters in one mailbox)

Thanks,
David

Do I need a customized macro for this?

2002-12-06 Thread Victor B. Gonzalez
Hello tbudl,

 I collect information using forms on the web. Through CGI
 the users information is mailed back to me. I would like to
 auto-respond to them using The Bat! but heres the dilemma.

 My problem is the CGI script and not the actual sender is
 sending me the mail. I cannot auto-respond to the CGI
 script (No-Reply) because it would simply bounce back.

 I do get the users e-mail address but it is in the body of
 the message.

 Is there a macro that can scan the body of a message locate
 an e-mail address on a *certain line* and then direct an
 instant reply to that address?

 The reason why I wish to emphasize *certain line*
 is because I sometimes get more than one address
 per form and would not wish to violate the privacy
 of my users.

 Thank you

What CGI script are you using to send you the form data by email to

probably is the most widely used. If you are, I'd suggest you use a
better one based on Matt's, you can find it on:

   http://nms-cgi.sourceforge.net/scripts.shtml

Anyway, whether you use Matt's or the one I suggest, you can easily
modify it so that the From: of the message you get if the Name and

been doing this for a couple of years now.

  Is there a macro that can scan the body of a message locate

Yes, you can also do this with RegExp macros in your reply template.
However, although I know it can be done, I can't tell you how because
I'm not that familiar with RegExp in TB. And also, I think it is a
better solution to make the changes in the FormMail script.

  that could guide you). You would then need to use it in conjunction
  with a filter so that the filter responds to certain flags (ie
  headers, to, and from for example so as not to get an accidental
  mail), then run a QT (Quick Template), as part of the
  auto-responder, that has the regexp code in it to setup the headers
  (%TO that is), and you can then set the filter to send immediately.

Macro for PGP sign and crypt

2002-12-06 Thread Cedric Fontaine
Hello !

I've just read the pro-privacy.de howto about The Bat and PGP. It's a
great job and thanks to him, I'm almost set... Now, I looking for some
more informations about macros and PGP.

I mean, in the howto, it says that there is a way with macro to crypt
or sign a mail message automatically...

Is there a tutorial about that ? I don't know how can I do that... In
fact I want to sign only some messages to some special dest. Is is
possible ?

It happened when he replied to my message as well. My address
appeared in his message From header.

I think his template is incorrectly configured and I've already
indicated this to him.

There are numerous ways to achieve automated signing and encrypting.
One way would be to enable in PGP preferences both options (Always
sign ... and Always encrypt ...). To not sign/encrypt every message
you then put the %NOUSEPGP macro into your templates. that's how I
avoid signing on these mailing lists.

You could also do it the other way round and use %SIGNCOMPLETE or
%ENCRYPTCOMPLETE in templates - a much more tedious way.

BTW, as for encryption the addressee needs to have his PGP key, it
would just be an annoyance if you enable Always encrypt ...;
messages to folks without a key wouldn't be encrypted but you would be
asked to choose the key from the list or a server.

With The Bat!, it is easy with the PGP 6.5.8 (ckt) versions, as there are
plugins available. Same with GnuPG Nullify release.

CF In fact I want to sign only some messages to some special dest. Is is
CF possible ?

Sure. I'll hit ctrl + shift + S on this message to sign it. That's all you
need within TB!. :)

Too many messages to reply to about my headers

2002-12-06 Thread Victor B. Gonzalez
Hello tbudl,

  I apologize for any mix-ups but I check my from and to
  twice before I send mail.

  Two times I tried sending personal messages but they've
  somehow made there way into the UDL.

  I too do not know what's wrong and after double checking
  everything I can not see what's wrong.

  I never replied sooner because I was out and when I got
  back, noticed everyone was talking about me.

  Is anything wrong with this message? If not theres got to
  be something wrong only (so far) when I try personally
  replying to someone.

  Thank you all for your patience and understanding.

The greatest most annoying problem halts my PC

2002-12-06 Thread Victor B. Gonzalez
Hello tbudl,

  I am on my 4th days trial with The Bat! and everything
  about it is amazing except for this.
  
  The Bat! slows my entire PC down from out of no where. It
  doesn't freeze exactly, it *slows* it down incredibly but
  from here on I will refer to it as a freeze.

  For example in the last 4 days I would leave my PC only to
  come back and have to shut it down hard. The Bat! makes the
  entire system practically unresponsive.

  At first I had The Bat! in Workstation with TCP/IP mode
  and trying to hide the Display Connection Centre would
  *freeze* the system (hard boot).

   The fix for the above was not to hide the Display
   Connection Centre.

 The problem then would be it somehow would *freeze*
 up again (hard boot) leaving me no choice but to
 fetch my mail using another client because trying to
 fetch mail with The Bat! again would *freeze* it up
 again.

  I tried putting The Bat! into TCP/IP or Dial-out Server
  mode and now I can hide the Display Connection Centre
  without *freezing* the entire system.

   The problem is the entire system *freezes* up again
   (I do not know why or how) leaving me no choice but
   to fetch my mail using another client. Then I can use
   The Bat! again.

  I think theres something wrong with The Bat! in fetching
  my mail. At some point it *freezes* leaving me no choice
  but to hard boot. Once back up again I can launch The Bat!
  but can not fetch mail without *freezing* the system.

  If once I boot back up I fetch mail with my other mail
  client then and only then can I get back into using
  The Bat!

Does anyone have an idea? I would be greatly appreciative to
any idea or solution that doesn't hinder it's performance.

Thank you

Victor,

VBG Does  anyone have an idea? I would be greatly appreciative to any
VBG idea or solution that doesn't hinder it's performance.

The  only thing I could think of - admittedly not really like what you
describe,  but the only thing that comes to mind - is the animated bat
icon  in the taskbar when you have un-read mail. It has, at times, had
bad  habits  of  causing  Explorer  to  use  90% of the processor, the
solution  was  to  disable  the animated icon (first page of Options -
Preferences).  I'm  not  sure  TB!  still  has  this abnormality, as I
disabled  the  animation,  and  prefer  it  that  way.  But  its worth
trying...

I'm sure its something simple. :)
