SpamKiller and Command Line - The Answer
Hi , First of all, thanks for all the help and suggestions. The people at McAfee more or less said this wasn't possible, but I have finally solved it. I originally tried to get the command line working from the Accounts/properties/events dialog. Howevger, I have discovered that if in the main settings/general dialog if I choose other for the email program and insert c:\progra~1\thebat~1\thebat.exe /checkemailserver in there, Spamkiller dials up, nukes the crap and then instructs The Bat! to pick up authorised mail. A perfect solution. Again, many thanks for all your help.

Command String query
Hi , I am trying to get The Bat! to pick up messages after running an anti-spam filter program. The help file gives me the advice below: /CHECKaccount mask1[;account mask2[;account mask3[...]]] As commasndf lines etc are a dafrk and arcane black art to me are the account details the email address ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) the name I have given the account within The Bat (Private or Business etc) or the server details (mail.isp.com) Thanks for any help.

Re[2]: Command String query
Hello Marck, I'll try and explain my system to make things clearer. My ISP hosts three domains for me and all go through a master email portal called [EMAIL PROTECTED] I have called the master account on The Bat! EmailServer and all posts go to that and are then filtered into the three main domains and then sub-filtered into sub-folders. All this works great. SpamKiller recognises The Bat! as my default email client and provides two options. One is run email program and the second is run this program and it is here that I am trying to put the command string. The command string I have after all the help is: C:\Program Files\The Bat!\thebat.exe / CHECKEmailServer If The Bat! is not loaded then this will kick start it, but it will not run a retrieve pass and an earlier attempt with CHECKEmailServer also failed to run.

Working With SpamKiller
Hello The amount of spam coming through these days is far too much so I have bought McAfee's Spamkiller to help with the task. The process is a two step one with SK running first to nuke the crap and then running The Bat! to pick up the OK mail. There is a facility whereby if The Bat! is not loaded, then SK will launch it but it will only pick up mail if the options are set to pick up mail on launch. This means that I have to close The Bat! if I want to use this feature. Is there some instruction that I can use so that once SK has finished nuking garbage it will tell The Bat! Any help much appreciated.

Re: Acting on message text strings
Hi Charlie Just thinking out load, why don't you get the form handling cgi to post the form data direct to the member of staff? It seems more logical to me Kevin. It does that. When the incoming mail arrives the filter actions generates a forward email to the client. I then manually pick out the enquirer's email address from the form and email a thank you response. What I am hoping to do is do this latter bit automatically so I can still remain being seen as a vital cog in the wheel by my client and not be surgically attached to the computer g.

Acting on message text strings
Hi On behalf of a client I receive enquiry forms from an internet web site and forward them to one member of staff. This is now largely automated thanks to The Bat! As each incoming form has an applied action to automatically forward the form to the member of staff, but it still leaves me to manually sort through the form to find the sender's email address and fire off an acknowledgement that the form has been received. For whatever reason, the supplied email address is not highlighted blue as an active hyperlink. Is there anyway that I can program The Bat! To pick up this email string and send a template reply automatically?

Re: Archiving Question
Hi Januk If you don't mind a little duplication of data, your method works well. I ran some tests last night and it does work (much to my surprise, not because of The Bat! But because I worked it out g). This way I can keep the mailboxes lean and fast and save the important material on my Iomega Zip drive. The more I delve into The Bat! The more I'm impressed by the superior functionality it has. It's a bit daunting at first, but well worth the effort to persevere.

Mailing list snag
Hi I am trying to send a group email to a client which has 40 individuals I need to send some updated material to. If I choose the group option and the address is GON list) it won't send and at the end of the run the original email editor pops up. The same happens if I send a multiple address mail containing all the members. I seem to recall this worked in 1.46D - is this a bug or an anti-spam device?

Re: Mailing list snag
Hi As a follow up to this I thought I'd share the procedure I got the mailing list facility working again bearing in mind the list, as it was, worked with 1.46d. I found an old copy of The Bat! At Tucows, downloaded and installed that over 1.47 using the same group list - no joy. I re-wrote the list message in the hope that something there was screwing up and tried to re-send - no joy. I reinstalled 1.47 - well, it seemed only appropriate on October 31 to give the Halloween edition a second chance - again, no luck. I deleted the group and instead of reloading from the existing master address book, I re-imported the names and addresses from Calypso after exporting them as a standard text file. For some reason this worked and everything is fine. I humbly apologise for suspecting there was a bug in The Bat! And shall go off to thrash myself with stiff, fresh celery and cream cheese as a penance g.

Re: requesting fonts...
Hi Curtis http://home.bsu.edu/prn/monofont/index.html This link doesn't work, I've even cut it down to http://home.bsu.edu/prn/ and tried to access from the page menu there, but no joy.

Re: requesting fonts...
Hi Marck The link works fine here. Perhaps PlusNet's routers are having problems (one of the reasons I left them a couple of years back). Good call! Tried another dial up network and got in fine.

Difference 1.46 and 1.47
What a difference a day makes! Before I download 1.47 is there any major difference over 1.46d or is it cosmetic like a bat on a brookstick logo g.

Fonts and automatic pick up and send
Hi I am a long time Calypso user evaluating The Bat! And have two immediate questions. 1: When I have the configuration for the program to pick up mail every X minutes, it doesn't send at the same time and I cannot see anything in the help file or menus to tell it to do that. 2: Is there a font source to expand the font list that comes with The Bat! I'm not to keen on any of those supplied.

Re: Fonts and automatic pick up and send
Hi Roel Thanks for that. I was looking for the option elsewhere. I should go into RTFM mode.

Re: Fonts and automatic pick up and send
Hi Marck Thanks for the tips. The FAQ link wasn't working yesterday when I tried it, I'll give it another go later.
