Not with Archivarius 3000... The only problem with the combination TB!/Archivarius is that the latter can show you the entire texts of mail attachements (and the location of the files), but not the way they look like in the native program, which it (Archivarius) can for attached files in Outlook or files in folders. Since I use Archivarius 3000 I only have to remember a (preferably) specific word that is used in the document to find the file. http://www.likasoft.com/document-search/index-en.shtml Not related to Likasoft, merely a very happy user :-) -- Best Wishes, Mark using The Bat! 4.2.33.1 Beta 142 days remaining in 2011.

Gmail issues (re-opened)
Last spring, I posted the following: I have been having e-mail to several Gmail users. I wonder whether other folks have been having this problem and whether anyone knows what can be done about this? Your message cannot be delivered to the following recipients: I did not put a lot of energy in pursuing this issue as, oddly enough, I do not need to respond to Gmail users very often, and could resend the reply from my wife's account* fairly easily. The other day I noticed the following: When I reply (usually via f4), the reply is addressed to, for example: Mortimer Snerd msn...@gmail.com That will always bounce. However, if I change the reply addressee to msn...@gmail.com the e-mail message will travel smoothly to its destination. (apologies if there really is a Gmail user with the name of Mortimer Snerd) Can anyone explain this phenomenon? *It is a further mystery why the same e-mail message from my account bounces, but does not bounce when I send it from my wife's account.

I can confirm issues in this vein, although they're not too frequent for me, fortunately. Sometimes it does happen that a message will bounce if it's rather elaborately addressed in the TO field. But when you re-send the same message using only the recipient's email address and nothing else in the TO field, then the message will go through successfully. I suppose there are 3 ways the above address could appear in the TO field in the email's headers: To: Mortimer Snerd msn...@gmail.com To: Mortimer Snerd msn...@gmail.com To: msn...@gmail.com Only the last option of these 3 is *really* safe to go through. Some folks are crazy and put all sorts of things in their Reply-to field that don't really belong there, which then results in addresses such as: Dr. Johnny Lately - Your Trustworthy Physician lat...@grave.com Now when you attempt to reply to an address like that, The Bat! displays it as follows in the TO field in the Editor window: \Dr. Johnny Lately - Your Trustworthy Physician\ lat...@grave.com Lots of ugly escape characters to look at; such things should be hidden from the user's eye. And, that's nothing compared to the goulash that actually gets sent in the email's header, where the above might look something like this: To: =?utf-8?Q?=22Dr. Johnny Lately - Your Trustworthy Physician=22?= lat...@grave.com If you think *that's* messy, just write to someone whose name contains a diacritic letter... *then* things start getting *really* messy, and the TO filed in the email's headers becomes next to impossible to parse with human eye. Under such circumstances, I'm not surprised some messages containing headers like that get falsely labelled as spam. To avoid these problems, you might want to use only the recipient's address, and nothing else, in the TO field; I sometimes manually delete everything else that's in there, to make sure the message goes through without any delivery problems. -- Yours, Alex. of Slovakia www.avenarius.sk [flying with The Bat! 4.2.44.2 under Windows 7 64-bit 6.1 Build 7601 Service Pack 1 AMD Athlon II X4 645 @ 3.10 GHz 8 GB RAM] Current version is 4.2.42 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
