how to ged rid of attachments from message base ?
Hello tbudl, Let's assume, we have an account with extremly big sent mail folder The option Bind attachments only while sending out mail wasn't active - so my suspection is all the attachments are stored in MESSAGES.TBB file. Is there any program/trick/way I could use to get rid all the attachments stored in message bodies ? As an effect I expect a clean MESSAGES.TBB file with clean messages in it without any attachments ... -- Best regards, ZdroYY mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Promocja Grudniowa Serwery www, konta e-mail www.oferta.alpha.pl Current version is 1.62 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Re: retrieving message headers - slow
Hello Thomas TF When the headers are retrieved before the actual download begins, it TF means that TB needs to look at them first. This will be the case when TF you have Selective Download filters (at least one). Ah! I think you may have it, Thomas. When I look at the filters for this account, there is an unnamed selective filter defined with no filtering parameters. I've deleted it and will report back after I next connect.

Re: The Bat! choosing authentication method
Hi CEEJOE, First let me please you to _NOT_ CC me when replying to a mail of mine on this list. I am, as everybody else who writes to this list, subscribed here and do get all the mail via this list. I don't need a private carbon copy. Second I want to ask why you do change the subject in such a strange manner? Neither the square brackets are useful to keep an overview, nor does any arbitrary time appended to the subject make any sence to me. Is there a special reason why we should have an eye on this time? On Thu, 2 Jan 2003 04:08:06 + CEEJOE [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: A lot of theory. That's the basics of e-mail working in practice. However, TheBat cant handle secure IMAP4/secure POP3 connections flawlessly It can handle SSL-secured POP3 and SMTP connections. With some SSL versions on server side there still are problems, but in general The Bat! can handle SSL for SMTP and POP3. The only thing it still ain't capable to do is: IMAP-over-SSL. That's what counts to me. AFAIR this thread wasn't about what counts to you, neither was my response. My mail was about what authentication and security mechanism are present in The Bat! and how are they chosen to be used. If you don't like The Bat! not fully supporting some functions you'd need that's a different story. _I_ just wanted to clear the confusion about CRAM-MD5 vs. SSL. In fact, I am not sure whether they will ever waste their time again on this matter. If even _you_ call this waste of time they surely will not. If IMAP and IMAP-over-SSL are implemented and working (according to what Beta-testers and daily use brings to daylight) they wouldn't waste time, IMHO ... TB is still the best mailer I have ever seen. It is (IMO) a result of brilliant programmers - but hey, we need this secure thing to fly flawlessly: just click here to exchange certificates and all is done automatically. There's a big difference between SSL working flawless and automatition of certificate exchange. The former statement is correct: it _has_ to work flawless, _absolutely_ flawless. Into this category belongs the fixing of unable to connect errors that are coused by a specific SSL-version on server side (which works with every other MUA). The latter postulation can open a big security hole if not handled carefully. These Click here once and everything is done automatically buttons are always possible intruders of security issues. I don't even know how to exchange certificates could be done, but the whole certificate problem has a two step solution: Step one requires RITLabs to provide a generic interface for an institution / system administrator to add a Trusted Root CA to the appropriate AB automatically. Either by being able to put the Trusted Root CA AB on a server for a central administrator being able to modify it (and _only_ the admin being able to do so) and import an own Root-certificate into this AB; or by providing an automatic post installation import of a Trusted Root Certificate into this AB. This could, just for being sure, expanded to Trusted Intermediate CA AB. No user would have problems anymore connecting to a server using a certificate signed by this Root certficate or any derived intermediate certificate. Step two would be to introduce a new dialog box: ,-[ ] | Accept this self signed certificate? | | Fingerprint: XXX | Please compare the fingerprint with information the servers | administrator provided to the used certificate to make sure this is | the correct server | | [ ] Always accept (import to Trusted Root CA) | DetailsOK Cancel `- Which pops up if a connection is established and the used certificate is a self singed not yet in Trusted Root CA AB. Details could reveal more details about the certificate for the user being able to compare this with information provided e.g. on a web site, to make sure there's no man in the middle attack. All this are semi-automatic solutions, but from a Security POV this should be preferred over one of these Click here once to do it all without you even knowing _what_ is done buttons. But all this stuff wasn't topic of this thread and therefore should be discussed in a different one. Even better it should be discussed on TBTECH or TBBETA, it's nothing that's yet implemented and therefore these basic discussion of possible solutions is not a problem of The Bat! Users but a How to improve future use? problem. [Original message, 31/12/2002, 21:39] Peter Palmreuther [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: PP 1.)

Re: PGP Signing and Encryption
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Marck, Only encrypted signed messages will result in a decrypted version. Ah, so it does. I was keying CTRL-SHIFT-D for signed messages, instead of CTRL-SHIFT-C. If it were decrypted in-line then you really would lose that opportunity since the original message would be replaced with the decrypted version. By in-line what I was really trying to say is on-the-fly - TB! should always store the message as it was received. So if I received a signed message and want it displayed in the viewer TB! would do it's best to check the signature automatically. Similarly with encrypted messages, if I have a cached passphrase in PGP then there is nothing to stop TB! decrypting the message for me when I open it in the viewer. There should, of course, always be a way to view the message as it was originally transmitted if you are interested in that. For me it's the manual intervention on every message that is signed or encrypted that makes it feel less integrated. BTW, if unattended security is of concern to you then you should seriously consider using SecureBat! It's not a major concern for me, just an example of why I'm not so keen on the decrypted copies of messages. If TB! was decrypting as it went the PGP passphrase caching would alleviate this problem to some degree. Thanks for your response, I will give that example Read filter a try.

Hello Roelof, and Gavin, On Thursday, January 02, 2003, 12:23 PM, you wrote: GS The simplest way to prevent this is to wrap my stuff at about 50 GS characters also. Can I do this for a single message? Gavin, if I'm not misunderstanding you, it's the appearance of the message in your Reply text editor window that is bothering you. If that's not it, you should just ignore the rest of what I'm saying here. To straighten up the line appearance, you could (keeping your 70 or 72 line auto-wrap) click on Utilities on the Reply window toolbar. Choose Format Block. Position the cursor within the paragraph you want to fix (it only works with adjacent lines of text) and choose Align left. In other words, instead of conforming to the 50-wrap line, conform the quoted message to your line-length preference. I just learned about this a couple of days ago. Before that, I had been laboriously moving text which had come in from friends using Outlook Express, just in order not to send back such a long, ugly page. What you see in the Reply window, as you no doubt know, is what should arrive on the other end of cyberspace. :) People were complaining about the Format Block choice--they wanted to format the entire message with one click--but I am grateful for even this much, after having sat on Delete and Backspace and Enter for two months.

And I had had such a hard time manually erasing many long PGP sigs over the past few weeks, that I didn't want to wish a PGP signature on any of my Batty friends, even the ones who were sending the uncuttable versions to me! :) So, is it possible that this delimiter works in your fashion for PGP-tray-signed messages, but not for plain cut line and signature like mine?

Re: XML Address Book Format
Well, suppose I have two XML files, one using name-first and the other using first-name. An XSL script can convert between them. Or I can convert the data manually using any text editor. Fifteen years from now, when the original programs are long dead, I will still have my address data in a format I can read and use. More to the point, I should slap the developers for not coordinating on a standard. That is what committees like W3C are for. The vcard XML format sounds like a winner to me. We have email standards, and all email clients support them: POP, SMTP, etc. Why not some W3C-approved XML address format? XML is more than a buzzword, it's an important new standard. The reading of XML files via SAX or DOM is facilitated by open-source parsers and is not complex at all. XML is a machine-ready format. I can't see how proprietary formats are any less work.

Excellent software indeed. Yes, excellent. Did you see Melissa Reese's post to me in this thread, regarding a regular expression making it possible to format the entire message in one click?

I decided to switch viewers. With the fixed width viewer, I don't see the space. With the rich text viewer, it seems like a space is there when you swipe select the delimiter with the mouse. This is what confused me. -- -=] allie_M [=- {List Moderator} MUA: TB! v1.62 Christmas Edition ___ OS: WinXP Pro (SP1) Current version is 1.62 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
