Spam Assassin thinks The Bat! can't send HTML message only

Cannot reinstall The Bat Professional
I had The Bat Professional installed on an external hard drive which crashed yesterday. Now I'm trying to reinstall it on my C drive. My first attempts failed because the installer could not find the current installation (since the drive on which it had been installed is now defunct), so I cleaned the registry of everything I could find with thebat, the bat, ritlabs. Now the installation fails reporting that The configuration data for this product is corrupt. Please help.

The key to delete or rename would be HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\RIT. Are you sure it's completely gone? - Actually, the registry was clean, but I had an old copy of the installation file for the original V3.0, and that installed without trouble and accepted my registration key. The problem now is that I still cannot upgrade this installation to V3.6.

Messages in inbox have disappeared
Hello TBUDL, Here's a strange problem: Yesterday I had to reinstall W2k to recover from a disaster. OK, I reinstalled The Bat, and proceeded to start re-establishing my accounts by adding a new account with the same name as it was. This worked fine with everyone of my accounts except one, and with that one (this one actually), all my folders, filters, settings and preferences came back with no problem EXCEPT the Inbox. Now I have an Inbox showing for this account, and an Inbox on the disk with all the other folders, but the Inbox shown in the program has no messages in it, and the MESSAGES.TBB and MESSAGES.TBi files that reside in the folder on the disk continue to grow in size as new messages come in, never to be seen in the program's Inbox. Can anyone help? -- Best regards, John -- __ Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org
Synchronisation
Hello TBUDL, I have the Bat on two networked machines, and I'd like to share the folders from several accounts on one of them with the other. I can create matching accounts on the second machine and designate the path to the account folders on the first, which results in allowing the second machine to view the messages, which is the result I'm after. But - when any of the shared accounts check for mail, the second machine freezes and crashes. I have no idea why this should be, but it occurs to me that the Bat's synchronization feature might be the preferred way to accomplish what I want - if only I could figure out how to use it. According to the first screen in this feature the steps are: Step 1:Create synchronisation data file for other system Step 2:Generate Synchronisation archive using data file from other system Step 3:Submit synchronisation archive from other system What does this actually mean? What do I do from where? Where to I save the resulting output? How do I actually use it? Using The Bat!

Hot link problem
Hello TBUDL, This problem just appeared mysteriously (which means, of course, that I just don't know how it happened). Yesterday afternoon, after having no trouble at all with links in emails, I double clicked on a hot link and internet explorer loaded, but with no address in the address box. It just sat there, no throbber action, everything blank, doing nothing. As I tried some more links, I found that sometimes it would act like this, and others it would not even load ie at all. This morning I downloaded and install the beta 4.8, build 10, thinking maybe this would fix it. No such luck.

Re[2]: Hot link problem
Hello Ming-Li, Well, thank you - you pointed me in the right direction. After reading your reply, I remembered that this problem appeared right after I had installed Opera 5 (commanding it, of course, not to make itself the default browser. I tried what worked for you with no luck, and finally just reinstalled IE, whereupon everything returned to normal. So thanks again, god knows how long I would have wrestled with it without your help. -- Best regards, John mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] North Bay Webs Complete Internet Solutions for Small Business http://www.northbaywebs.com ICQ Number: 11683098 Friday, December 08, 2000, 9:02:22 AM, you wrote: Ming-Li On Friday, December 08, 2000, 7:29:20 AM, John wrote: Yesterday afternoon, after having no trouble at all with links in emails, I double clicked on a hot link and internet explorer loaded, but with no address in the address box.

Ming-Li ...[thinking really hard] Ming-Li Ok, this much I can remember: something in the registry about how Ming-Li Windows (or IE) should handle Internet shortcut or about the default Ming-Li browser was broken. (Yes, IE was still the default browser, but it Ming-Li didn't behave normally, as you described.) IMS, I just ticked the Ming-Li "Internet Explorer should check to see if it is the default" option Ming-Li (which I usually disable), and restarted IE. Alah, it asked to fix Ming-Li something for it's no longer the default browser. I let it fixed, Ming-Li and everything's back to normal. Ming-Li I thought at first, as you do, that it's TB's fault. Then I found it Ming-Li happened when I clicked on links from my newsreader as well. I Ming-Li suspect it's the newly installed Netscape 6 that broke it (though I Ming-Li didn't let Netscape to be my default browser when it asked), but I Ming-Li couldn't prove it. -- -- View the TBUDL archive at http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBUDL, double click here and send the message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org
Wrapping in the editor
Hello TBUDL, If I create a new message in the editor window (as I am doing now), the text wraps as it is set up to do in the editor preferences (as it is doing now). But, if I copy and paste text created in a different text editor that wrapped fine as it was being created (as I am doing now), The Bat refuses to wrap it (as it is doing now). This is also true if I use the %PUT macro to insert text. Is there anything I can do about this other than to put hard returns in the original? -- Best regards, John mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] North Bay Webs Complete Internet Solutions for Small Business http://www.northbaywebs.com ICQ Number: 11683098 -- -- View the TBUDL archive at http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBUDL, double click here and send the message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org
Messages stuck in outbox
OK, here's the situation: I'm trying to send a message with a jpeg file attached, but it gets stuck in the outbox and there seems to be nothing I can do to get it sent. This happens only on one of my accounts, so I suspect it must have something to do with the configuration of that account, although I've been through every configuration option I can find, and I can see no difference from any other account.

Re[2]: Messages stuck in outbox
Hello everybody, Thanks to all for your efforts. It turned out to be, as usual, a combination of my inability to see the obvious, and a peculiarity of the Bat. I had added an address to the address book from a message in which the address was surrounded by angle brackets. The Bat, in its infinite wisdom ADDS angle brackets to the e-mail address when it is put into the TO field from the address book. Hence, the result is an invalid address which will not send. Removed the extraneous brackets and all is well. -- Best regards, John mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] North Bay Webs Complete Internet Solutions for Small Business http://www.northbaywebs.com ICQ Number: 11683098 Monday, December 04, 2000, 9:37:17 AM, you wrote: Thomas Hallo John, Thomas On Mon, 4 Dec 2000 08:10:40 -0800 GMT (05/12/2000, 00:10 +0800 GMT), Thomas John Sherman wrote: JS I'm trying to send a message with a jpeg file attached, but it gets JS stuck in the outbox and there seems to be nothing I can do to get it JS sent.
