Close TB
Start Regedit
Search for the following keys in your registry:
HKey_Current_User\Software\RIT\The Bat!\RAS Left
RAS Top
Set both of them to zero, that will place your CC in the left upper
corner of your screen.
Exit Regedit
Start TB
And enjoy your CC

 you define the 'CR [snip] CR' as a Quick Template called (say)
 'Snipper' then Alt-F12 to get into the Shortcut editor and assign
 the key combo you want to use to fire it off.`

Brilliant! ...so far...

Can you see above? I defined QT as you said - with two CR after the ]

SPACE CR

but the trailing CR SPACE CR is ignored.

But maybe that's the best we can do?

H I am pretty new to the Bat. It is not clear to me what has to be
H in the Quick Template.

Well, in my case I have a much simpler template containing only
'...snip' - no CRs ... I do them by hand to shape the text as I
wish.

The quick template I use is simply this:

,--/ Snipper \--
... snip
`--\ End /--

H Sounds great, to select text and replace it with snipped, just
H by using a keycombination.

While in the Message editor, I press Alt-F12 to bring up the
Shortcuts editor and navigate to Main menu .. Utilities ... Insert
quick template ... Snipper and press Ctrl-Alt-X.

Now I have a Ctrl-Alt-X key to replace the currently selected text
with '...snip' in the message editor.

You can assign a hotkey to any Quick template using this technique.

It is. %CURSOR should have helped here as a marker for where you

As I said to Daniel, you will have to adopt a slightly different

 Hi, Peter.  I have never compressed the message base.  I never thought
 about it.  (Here at the office, compression is done autormatically every
 night with Lotus Notes.)

There is compression and then there is compression.

The TB terminology is not what is usually understood by compression.
It is rather a zapping: when messages are deleted in TB, there are not
deleted from the database. They are only marked as deleted and not
shown in your message list. this is tru for the Inbox  too, if you use
filters. All messages get downloaded into the Inbox first, then copied
into the destiantion folder and marked as deleted in the Inbox, so you
won't see them any more.

Every ouple of days I go to Folder / Maintenance Center, click Kill
Dupes, Purge and Compress. This will makr duplicates as deleted,
mark messages older than your settings in the folder properties as
deleted, and then go about and actually take them off the message
base. I always save a couple fo MB on my harddisk.

This doesn't prevent fragmentation, you still have to defrag on OS
level (which I do once a month, max).

What your Lotus does every night has nothing to do with this (well I
don't know whether it defrags but wouldn't think so).

 However, does defragmentation accomplish the same thing? Even if
 compression is a good thing to do on a regular basis (and how would
 I schedule that?),

You cannot schedule TB's compression style, but you can instruct TB to
do it on exit, as has been mentioned. I don't do that, because it
takes several minutes im my case (many large attachments, stored in
message base), and sometimes I want to leave the office quickly! ;-)

 would that really solve the occasional slowdown problem given that a
 cold reboot doesn't compress messages, but it did solve my problem.
 At least for a while.

Glad you are fine for now. Keep compressing the TB folders, either
manually or on exit.

 Hello fellow Bat-ers,

 Really nobody who can help me here?

I use SMTPS extensively with The Bat! and without problems - about 15
accounts and 3 different mail servers (running Sendmail or Exim). You
didn't say anything about the software on the mail servers, so it
would be a little difficult to try to diagnose the problem.

Have you tried connecting to SMTPS via telnet and sending a message
that way? You may get more information that could point to a
problem.

As to the authentication error, IIRC from previous discussions on this
list, TB! will automatically attempt to login using the most secure
method and if that doesn't work will then drop down to another form of
authentication unless the Require secure (MD5) authentication is
checked. This is taken from the TB! help file:

Once connected to an SMTP server, The Bat! checks which of the
server's RFC-2554-authentication mechanisms is available, and chooses
the most secure. Even when Require secure (MD5) authentication is
off, if the server does supports it, secure authentication will take
place.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

The whole point of smtps is so that text isn't sent in plain clear

No, only those which are set to do so. I would recommend to set your
Inboxes to be compressed on exit, because all your mail is received
there and then either moved or deleted, so they would have to be
compressed out from there.

AFAIK Inboxes are set compress-on-exit by default.

For manual compression (of all or selective folders) choose
Folder/Maintenance.. (which would be better put into Tools menu,
because it's not binded to current folder - IMHO).

As MAU pointed out, this seems much easier than Filter Commander.  I was
surprised how easy this method was - wish I knew about it earlier!  I
happened to try it when trying to move all my filters from one computer
to another.  Sure was nice to not have to recreate all those filters

Another big plus with having filters text-based: you can easily send

Hi Jean,
  EXIT means, when you exit TB! like File|Exit or A+lt-X.
  Not when you move from folder to folder.

  Because it will purge and compress each folder on exit it will take
  longer to exit. This can be a problem when you are the kind of person
  that just presses the off switch on the computer and expect windows to
  exit and the computer to shut-off.

  Always use this option on the Inbox, because all mail first enters the
  inbox before it might get filtered to other folders.

available in the message view window, as well.

Regarding  an upgraded quicksearch toolbar, what I'd most like to see is a
reg-ex  toggle.  Perhaps  a  view-mode  drop  down  would  also  be a nice
addition.

Just some comments.

Lookout2003: Tabs let you roll up (or clump) messages by sender name;
day, month, or week received; message size; and so on.
Well, part of it is sorting by a something column.
Others _can_ be achieved using the message finder.
Probably TB can be enhanced for such a view without using the msg finder.

Lookout 2003: If you are working in another application, a small window
appears when you receive a new message.
Uhm, flying-bat to inform about new mail / mail ticker (I don't use that one)

Lookout 2003: Other security features, such as blocking images and HTML,
are easy to define.
Geezz... did M$ wakeup at last??? So implementing something existing
gets you to number one??? O yeah, it's M$

I had my doubts about PCmag for some time, but now I don't trust PCmag
anymore...

I'd probably give it the same review if I fired it up for a period of five
minutes to write a review.

PO I had my doubts about PCmag for some time, but now I don't trust PCmag
PO anymore...

I  remember  the  days  when  expert  computer  users  wrote  for computer
magazines.  Now  it's apparently sports writers who can't find an openning
in their preferred genre. Or perhaps Luddites.

One thing that really caught me off guard was:
Overly cute and at times confusing,

It  seems  to  me  that  the  typical argument is that TB is aesthetically
lacking, not overly cute. What copy of TB are they using?

They  seemed  to  consider  the  mail  ticker a bug rather than a feature.
Furthermore,  rather than recognizing the value in having a choice of SPAM
filtering  method  (I'd  rather  be  able  to chose among plug-ins than be
forced a proprietary mechanism) they dismiss it as an acknowledgement that
TB! cannot stand on its own two feet in the e-mail market.

Most troubling, is: How can you write a review about TB without mentioning
its  filtering  system,  TBUDL  and,  most importantly, its template/macro
system?!

The  Bat!  doesn't  take flight, Eudora is customizable and Outlook is
the king of e-mail clients. Right. sigh

It seems to me that this review does not take into consideration The
Bat!'s most powerful features: filters, templates, and the ability to
handle a large message base (Have you ever tried to run Outlook with
10,000+ e-mail messages? It's not pretty. [There's a reason it
auto-archives every two weeks]).

I have a question about this part of the review, however:
Further complicating matters, the help files have been poorly
translated from Moldovan.
Are the help files really written in Moldovan and then translated into
English?

If debugging is the process of removing bugs, then programming must be
the process of putting them in.

Not only is Eudora customizable, but its interface is one of the
most intuitive in this roundup. Personally, I don't see how, looking
at their screen shot:

THAT interface can be intuitive.

If you don't like this review, please submit your own. Try to be
