Re[2]: shared folders - one more try

hi,

Peter Palmreuther said among others:
P They're named Common folders not because the can be shared
P without hassle between different people, but only because they don't
P belong to an account.
ok, that's my fault. i barked the wrong tree.

thx

hi,
Peter Palmreuther asked:
P No ... but were in The Bat! you've seen shared folders?
what a sophisticated question.
I am talking abount the folders, that are called common folders in
The Bat! . imho, to use common folders could sometimes, in very special
situations, mean, that they are shared - got it?

hi,
i think it's time to polish up my english ;)

Mark Wieder said:
M message said you explicitly did *not* want to share the folders...?
M Maybe you could provide some clue as to what you're trying to do and
M what isn't working.

to say it in short: i expected shared folders to update
automatically, but obviously they don't.

upgrade from 1.51 to 1.62i done

2003-03-01 Thread Jernejcic Alexander
hi,
after testing with my own account (you can't buy courage) i did a
cold upgrade on our terminalservers without change user /install
to keep the registry settings. and it is up and running.
folderstructure and settings are left unganged - even language
settings (we use german and one french) and pgp is ok.
i can not recall by which upgrade the folderstructure was
changed automatically, but here is our TheBat-history:
v1.3 - v1.42 - v1.45d - v1.47 - v1.51 - v1.62i

thx again

Re[2]: upgrade from 1.51 to 1.62i

2003-02-28 Thread Jernejcic Alexander
hi,
i think the dust is clearing ;)
the test-userprofile i updatet was from an older version which indeed did
not have the structure as mentioned by Mark Wieder.
the users that are using v1.51 by now, all have he structure
Mail/account/inbox (etc.).
so i am going to try this with a more recent userprofile and will let
you participate in my experiences ;)

thx to Mark and Thomas, for putting me on the way

 i would like to make it as painless as possible to my users. i did the
 upgrade on a testinstallation and it created a new folder structure beside
 the old folders - what i do not like to happen to my users...

T I am not aware of a new folder structure between 1.51 and the current
T release version. What difference did you see upon upgrading?

Re[2]: public folders

2003-02-25 Thread Jernejcic Alexander
hi again,

in reply to my question:
J ... Then i took a third workstation (let's call it dispatcher) to fetch
J the mails from a pop3 server and fill the mails into this folder
J groupIn - that too was just easy. ...
Mark Wieder said:
M ... You should also
M look into the client-server features: set one computer (the one that
M will be updating the folder) to TCP-server mode and put the others
M into workstation mode. ...

maybe a silly question, but is there a mixed mode? we are using
an internal mail server. what i did not mention yet (please forgive
me) : we use citrix terminalserver and the workstation described
above is only just another terminalserver session running on a thin
client.

btw: TheBat behaves great on citrix.

/thx
alexander

public folders

2003-02-24 Thread Jernejcic Alexander
hi,
for our upcomming fax-server i am searching a solution for public (or
shared, or common or whatever you will name them) folders.
I tried the following scenario (using TheBat v 1.51):
I created a folder groupIn on a shared drive from one workstation
with account A and then created a folder with the same name from
another workstation in account B pointing to the shared dir - so far
so well. We both are able to see it and to work with it.
Then i took a third workstation (let's call it dispatcher) to fetch
the mails from a pop3 server and fill the mails into this folder
groupIn - that too was just easy.
But: This shared folder groupIn does not update automatically.
Incomming mails (feeded by the dispatcher) do not show up untill i
manually refresh an A and B and the same with the status of the
mails (read, unread or even deleted). That behavior is not manageable
for our users.

Is it possible to do this with 1.62i? Anyone did that yet?

thx in advance
Alexander Jernejcic
