How to delete a message in TheBat! while I am in IMAP mode of Gmail
Hello TBUDL, I'm not very apt in working with IMAP, but this what I understand is that if I chose to delete a message shown in The Bat, it should be deleted from Gmail server too - if I have configured it so (which I did). Now, what I find interesting, and guess might be important, is when TB! downloads messages from Gmail, it for each filter I have created in Gmail, makes separate folder, with the name of the given filter, and in this folder I can see the messages filtered by this rule. Those messages I can see both in TB's Inbox, and in the given mentioned folder. For instance, the messages from TBUDL folder I can see both inside this folder and inside Inbox. Then, if I delete some message in TBUDL folder, I notice that it is not deleted from the Inbox! And vice versa. While, if I change status of a message in Inbox, eg. to "Read", I see it is changed in "TBUDL" folder too. Same is with using flags etc. Then again, if I delete, in TB!, a message that has no a rule assigned to, it happens with the copy of the message on Gmail www interface too. And vice versa, which I recon is as it should be. The thing acts normal, or as expected to. -- The question is: Why is this not the case with the rest of the messages which are filtered out into those mentioned folders? ★ More precisely: How could I make that if I delete such a message from Inbox, it is deleted from related folder too, and vice versa, and me not being caught in the silly gamboling right and left from folder to folder and deleting one and the same messages twice?

Forever. And ever. And probably for good too. If not even for eternity (which is indeed a lots of the time, if you agree). I didn't know for this GMX politics; might be it is something relatively new; have no a faintest idea (lots of change these days in the world, I hope for the better anyway). I've been trying to make new one, at GMX, but found that this too is not possible anymore - save if you are in Germany, Austria and / or Swiss. So...as well, I have to revoke all my GPG keys related to this address, I guess. And when I make new key(s), I would want an address which is equally, or nearly so, reliable as this GMX one was. I've been searching for something like that, but haven't find anything similar. Anyone having some advice as for how to solve such situation?[*] [*] Gmail is good to me for the most of things I do, but I don't think it became that good that I could use it for GPG signed, or encrypted, mail.

The solution to my problem was this: In Account Properties | Mail management | Deletion, there's this option: Compact emptied folders automatically With this option, selected on this level (account level, as opposed to individual folder level), every time I would right-click on a folder and select empty, it would also compact the folder, giving me the bytes saved message. I've reset my account options to what I prefer -- to just compact everything upon program exit. All is well again, and I've now restored v5.2.2 on my main computer. Good to know, for there was the solution, that means that those newer versions are still worth of attention. a little bit rotten smile It seems I am changing my mind gradually and am becoming interesting in newer versions of TB!.

I have seen advocated partitions for TEMP and Archive in addition to those three, although I suppose Archive is just another example of a further division of Data. Yes, they do that too, and in various ways. Basically, the entire administration can be (and indeed is, by more advanced, demanding, weird users) divided into much more specialized sectors, and perhaps best example is the quite classical Linux/Unix strategy. There you can see that it by default has several (6-7) main partitions... /bin # programs coming with OS itself and shared by all users /etc # OS settings and related tools /home# place for (non-root) users /root# for the boss and his/her privileged secrets and tricks /tmp /usr # for programs installed and shared by users ...and so on. This of course is not the case with modern Linux installations that imitate the Windows, installing all on just one single partition, in order to make it for the users accustomed to Windows easier to manage. Also, there are users who in Windows, in return, apply exactly the rules and habits found in the classic Linux, making thus separate dedicated partitions for, as you have mentioned, TEMP, Archive, Documents and so on, and changing the system variables to point to these partitions accordingly, instead to the default addresses. Out of interest (and at the risk of moving too far off-topic), what are the arguments either way between using partitions or physical drives? This part is not clear to me. I will suppose that by drives you here mean actually hard disk, in contrast to the part of it, partition (since drive and partition are most frequently used as synonyms)? If yes, then there is no any significant difference, for the goal is same: to keep various types of data separated, and thus to provide more security/safety for them. (If OS kicks the bucket, the Documents will remain unaffected and so forth.) In particular situations, it's even better to keep your Documents on separate hard disk, since this way they are even more isolated from the rest, and if it is even a portable, USB and so on hard disk, then even better - anyone who would by a chance access your machine, wouldn't find any data on it except the OS and usual programs, so couldn't screw something up, be that intentionally or not. And it is all actually very much on topic too, since it can be applied to mail administration as well: separate partition, or even hard disk, for the mail only, or even two or more partitions, for various types of mail - private, business and so on. Then, it is much less risky if you encrypt just individual partition then the entire hard disk. So, this division into partitions, and even the use of dedicated hard disks, is very useful and practical thing and can be applied in many various situations. We of course are forced to learn this and similar things usually not until having undergone some loss of (valuable) data, so that actually a certain pain is our stimulator much rather than a fancy wish to be a geeks. g - -- Mica ~~~ For personal mail please use my address as it is *exactly* given in my From field, otherwise it will not reach me. ~~~ GPG keys/docs/software at: http://blueness.port5.com/pgpkeys/ http://tronogi.tripod.com/pgp/pgpkeys/ [Earth LOG: 670 day(s) since v3.0 unleashing] OSs: Windows 98 SE Micro Lite Professional IVa Enterprise Millennium Windows XP(ee) Micro Lite Professional 1.6, Gentoo Vector ~ Wine -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- iQCZAwUBRX9BaAYWnlFQ1cE7AQuOLgQfR/i43ajDdyvFAwlkKiohGePuxaDrr+6R 7fmcXmTo9nOhp4JnWolI6HJ7+ZqeizaSzbsBCXyeVgXmY4Kf03kbRBw2UTphTlVQ WHaiX6FdrWlnY5cVNeu76Ddyt8XZPHUAH/Ta7dyS/R+EdpVTNcMKkwXiQuKeZvU5 cZCRykt7rXBs7yqA =Xliw -END PGP SIGNATURE- Current version is 3.85.03 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

I think that will work most of the time but it depends on the upgrade. The logical thing to do would be to check with the TB! Tech support Staff.

That's why I have my OS's and Applications in different partitions. (Data too). This schema with three main partitions (OS | Programs | Data/Documents) is the best/safest way. Many professionals find it as best solution too. Often is done further division of the Data as well (e.g. private, business etc.). You could try it yourself and see does this speed match your working habits, temperament (my best experiences so far are with Knoppix 5.0.1 and the version of Wine coming with it). Except the speed and some aesthetic quirks, slight twitches and peculiarities, everything works, and as usual. Knoppix runs from a CD. I have an older version (3.6) of it. Knoppix also can be installed quite easily to hard disk as well (the easiest Linux installation actually, but is not very known, taking about 20 minutes and being 98,7% automatic). Very easy instructions I have sent recently to a TBOT (to a...member claiming he is not Dick Whittington and who couldn't manage with it). If you want I can resend these instructions. Knoppix 5.5.1 (on CD and on HDD) is even better than 3.x versions (having better version of Wine as well), but versions 3 also can be installed on hard disk (the same procedure, you just call the installation script that does everything needed). The 5.5.1 has three types of installation: typical Debian one, then for beginners, and one exactly as it is on CD (with a fine sexy female voice at the opening and the closing of the system). On TBUDL I think I already have sent instructions on how to install TB in Linux using Wine. TB! users are not main stream people and IMO, RitLab's targeting main stream windows users at the expense of more resourceful individuals was a mistake. Well...appetites for popularity increase and the target group changes, yes. Hence the needs of aristocracy of e-mailing world are not priority anymore, as it was once upon a time, since the Fine Product has to be spread among wide public masses as well (the very reason why the Ministry of Silly Features and Ministry of Useless Wishes were established), and hence the droop in quality. I resisted for a while, and then found myself quite pleased with just watching it from the gallery separe (and commenting on occasion, with or without petards and tomatoes). The TB! lists are an important resource but RitLab's tech support is pretty good too. I've always gotten responses and a developer is going to be much more competent than a lot of those insolent fools working at larger corporations. I've heard that they indeed are good and quite fair, although never had need for their help, assistance. TB (expert) lists do indeed excellent work, and lots of members here are quite helpful and effective. Most of them are besides quite friendly, of undamaged nerves, literate and genuinely civilized too, that contributes to the experience, so that I almost feel as in old good times of TB being a mailer for real aristocracy. I used Calypso before discovering TB! and had a nightmarish experience with it and especially, with their worse-than-nothing Dallas based tech support staff. I've heard about lots of such experiences too, with various manufacturers. Vista is said to be more stable than previous versions of windows and RitLabs has announced that a Vista certified version of Tb! will be released soon. There you see. Windows become more and more specialized and picky in order to defend their shaky stability. At the end they will finish as Mac, in order to make an idiot-proof OS (being

Darn contract changes Download XOSL (Extended Operative System Loader), so any time you change something with your OSs, in terms of installing a new one, or reinstalling them (from an image or otherwise) you have just to go to DOS and run the XOSL to restore, or install anew, your boot sector(s), in practically seconds. I have several Linuxes and Windows, and am switching between them quite often, also rebuilding them and then re-installing them from images, so the tinkering with the boot processes, the order of OSs etc. is almost a daily routine, and is done very easy with XOSL. When you install Linux, don't install boot loader (Lilo or Grub) on MBR, but on the partition you install the Linux on, for if it goes to MBR it will overtake booting of all OSs you have, which is not very pretty (since they then depend on the particular OS/Linux, and besides you will have yet to tweak each additionally). Save this, anytime you (re)install a Windows anew, it will overtake MBR, screwing up your Linux boot loader. When you install Linux boot loader on the given Linux partition, you have just to run XOSL then and to line up all the systems you have -- with their original individual boot methods/sectors. It is same when you (re)install a Windows. *** If you are new to Linux...before you start with installation, run Partition Magic from Windows and make two Linux partitions: one of say 3 GB (you don't need more, even for biggest Linux) for the Linux package itself and one of say 250 MB for swap, so the installation will find them automatically and thus you will not be thrown into quite unfamiliar Linux' partition program(s) where you can screw up something quite easily, including your Windows installation/files (or even the whole disk). An ultra-easy way of installing Linux is to take _Knoppix_ 5.0.1, the live CD and to install it on HDD. It takes about 20 minutes for very average and perhaps even somewhat outdated machine (as to RAM, CPU) after which you have _completely tweaked/tuned_, and yet excellently, as to precision, security and stability, Linux. If you decide this, then just boot using the live CD, open Konsole (you will see the icon in quick start sector of the task bar) and type in this... sudo ./knoppix-installer ...hit [enter] button, and installation will start. When you are prompted for the type of installation, choose debian/typical/recommended, not beginner, for you'll be given more choices. (Once you became familiar with this one, you may safely kid with other two types/styles -- or simply make 3 Linux partitions at once and install them all, so you can scrutinize differences, it's very educative distro as well.)

B Gates could be the devil. Well, the impulse to control/rule just everything and yet due to greediness is a demonic property, yes. Some call them hungry spirits, beings of artificial appetite that is impossible to satisfy, so they are depicted as terribly skinny creatures with huge balloon-alike stomachs. Manually extracting the files from the MSI archive will most likely not fix it. You'll still have a corrupt entry in the MS installer database that needs fixing. Mr. Mica said that all I had to do is substitute the old thebat.exe file with the new one. I always was doing this way, including the versions 3 (those in MSI packages as well), until I gave them up. I recall that this used to work for most previous TB! uogrades, and there was also an ftp access with zip files on the ritlab site. Yes, those were the exe files only, and mainly compressed with RAR. La MSI emballage made the things just more complicated, limited, and yet tinkering quite unnecessarily with OS. There is nothing worse than a software integrated, in any way, into OS, which is the source then of instability of both the software and OS. Mr. Mica said TB! runs pretty slow on Linux. There were a lot of people on tbot using Xandros but they must have unsubscribed. Only the charming buxom lady Anne, quite experienced Linux user, used TB and Xandros, to my knowledge, but she unsubscribed, yes, longish time ago. She was quite happy with this combination. I myself was using TB under Xandros (and many other Linuxes, Vector, Knoppix, Gentoo, Libranet, Gnoppix, Slackware, Debian...), but basically the performance, in relation to Windows, is same. I used Xandros to try if Cross Office could do it better than Wine (although the core of Cross Office is based exactly on the Wine), but it couldn't. Even the pure Wine is a wee bit better (more clean, lighter on resources and faster). You could try it yourself and see does this speed match your working habits, temperament (my best experiences so far are with Knoppix 5.0.1 and the version of Wine coming with it). Except the speed and some aesthetic quirks, slight twitches and peculiarities, everything works, and as usual. But if you work a bit longer with it, those twitches have tendency to assimilate you, like smallpox. TB under Linux quivers like a pudding. Slightly though and quite delicately, but quivers. I myself don't like it. With software. I like firm and defined forms on that score, so when you click on a button, or inter-face, nothing shakes nor ripples. Anyway, developers of Wine obviously advance. Earlier, TB will simply explode right in your face, if you touch wrong button/area or you make wrong move, which means actually that we probably will not need any portage to Linux, but will manage quite fine via Wine. - -- Mica ~~~ For personal mail please use my address as it is *exactly* given in my From field, otherwise it will not reach me. ~~~ GPG keys/docs/software at: http://blueness.port5.com/pgpkeys/ http://tronogi.tripod.com/pgp/pgpkeys/ [Earth LOG: 670 day(s) since v3.0 unleashing] OSs: Windows 98 SE Micro Lite Professional IVa Enterprise Millennium Windows XP(ee) Micro Lite Professional 1.6, Gentoo Vector ~ Wine -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- iQCZAwUBRXgUKwYWnlFQ1cE7AQthNwQgsOxkjv0aWE+jZm3Frv5tRRlT0KBroCA2 98LtW/sc2Si2GSVpa83QSv6WiPhsSM6stHUQlaWxZ9bmYxjjvy/SykSd98h7zgUc iZJRzE1mftoOZGPlX8zwyPVPLrydI4orDuat4iJ8gwUPb+r/OP38SYyiCxgL6Y6X pVKX8gq88G24DJ5k =yqvt -END PGP SIGNATURE- Current version is 3.85.03 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

It appears to be working. I've played with it some more since my earlier post, and it now decrypts and verifies signatures just fine. (Or at least those of the person with whom I've been testing it.) When I try to sign or encrypt, it gives the pass phrase dialog box, but then I get an error message saying there is no default secret key. I've repeatedly checked the preferences to make sure the paths are correct, but still can't get over this hurdle. This morning, however, I checked the properties on my key once again, and this time looked more carefully at the subkeys. The DSA subkey can sign and certify, while the ELG-E subkey, which has a different subkey id, can encrypt. (The default id is the DSA key number.) Neither of them have the authenticate box checked. Is this my problem? And if so, how do I overcome it? Should I just generate a new keypair and use different settings? Richard, whatever might be the case, and your DSA key certainly is not the reason, you should anyway make a new -- but an RSA -- key, of at least some honest 3072 bits, since DSA keys are not safe as they were once (upon a time) and hence should be gradually withdrawn from (active) cryptographic life. On how to make easily and quickly such a key (using GnuPG) you have instructions here, if you need them: http://blueness.port5.com/gpg/, 2. How to make a key in GnuPG using command line. Since these instructions are based on mainly default values, if you want to enable the Authenticate function, just toggle the A value, when these values are offered. * As for the inconsistent work of the crypto band the members of are here TBat, WinPT and GnuPG, I suspect that WinPT is the one that is causing it. Its author also himself hints (on the other list) that it is the possible reason, due to certain incompleteness of this software. Try GPGShell instead and I think you'll not have such problems anymore. * As for The Bat, in this, crypto, regard, it also is not quite complete, despite its very good (one of the best) integration with GnuPG, and although it makes no problem in this particular case you describe it should be corrected at least as for the list of keys it offers, the list that is filtered after the addresses of particular account and thus very annoyingly limited. _All_ the user's keys being on his key-ring(s) should appear and be at disposal on such a list, regardless whether the addresses in key IDs correspond to the actual account we work at the moment or not, or whether these IDs have some email address at all or not. The ways user uses his/her crypto software must not be limited in any way, particularly not by a third applications, like mailers are and similar (since they have absolutely nothing with the ways crypto strategies are applied and _must not_ interfere and tinker with it) and the said conception is long since outdated, very limited and rigid, being thus not very merrily functional. To the correction like this should be given highest priority, after the level of its essential importance of course, not after popularity some wish is rated, that is after the number of members who vote some less or more idio...matic (and often quite redundant) feature for. This is the reason why I myself do not take part in any whish list creation, since such conception (based on the numbers and not on the essential sense) makes no any functional and serious sense and is thus pretty much useless and resource wasting. - -- Mica ~~~ For personal mail please use my address as it is *exactly* given in my From field, otherwise it will not reach me. ~~~ GPG keys/docs/software at: http://blueness.port5.com/pgpkeys/ http://tronogi.tripod.com/pgp/pgpkeys/ [Earth LOG: 670 day(s) since v3.0 unleashing] OSs: Windows 98 SE Micro Lite Professional IVa Enterprise Millennium Windows XP(ee) Micro Lite Professional 1.6, Gentoo Vector ~ Wine -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6-svn-4217 o tiger192 i686 (MSYS/MinGW32) iQEVAwUBRTOQmrSpHvHEUtv8AQiqRAf/RruYXW8+UwvkdchTaTSwbAr5wQ3JeAQH j8BnvOD603+8jygL2U1yiathSv0llQTLo7pyDKiD1aOrqPzpTzjSJC0RyrFCyUQ7 uTJVdl1KVcQSN+wQ23iD3fN91IjHf5lGrDicgTUHk4dgttVBD/6XC38MAyOV4Eje FO0UQlWJCw4K4jaegwlDKHXWQowjV31fpcs7KvtadkkV5tqRn9KHECbLxPCM3QR2 RPPwFez602Owkx8HbzrW1h3ZyMOW7gWHTop0/3oo8WnWHgXfZc6smk7vMju5E86a 7oW9bGLpwBSB09+zpf7TZd7EOjgfl2PTj0IwrWxmxk09Icm2CnZbEQ==

Which is the better option for PGP? (Eventually I will phase out of using PGP, but need to have GnuGP working reliably first.) It is safer/best to create new keys using GnuPG. (PGP will manage then with 3072 bits RSA keys quite fine, and even with bigger ones.) Besides, GnuPG as such is reliable always (which is not case with other crypto software, including the modern PGP). In combinations with other programs it may vary (as you experience yourself). Best combination (so far) is GnuPG + GPGShell (and of mailers + The Bat). Also, how do I change the hash algorithm? With PGP v8.1 I have several algorithm options, but they all seem to result in a hash SHA1. SHA1 is also unsafe algorithm. In GnuPG you add/remove hashes and the rest by updating the key preferences. It is done by typing in on the command line (in Windows the DOS Prompt -- Start | Run | cmd | [OK])... gpg --edit-key (and here you type in ID of the key you want to edit) ...then you type in... setpref (and here you choose wanted hashes -- see the table below) ...and then when you are finished, you type in this... save ...hit [enter] button and your key preferences are updated. * The list of abbreviations for algorithms is here... ## # Cipher-Algos:# Digest-Algos:# Compress-Algos: # ## # # # Z0 Uncompressed # # S1 IDEA # H1 MD5 # Z1 ZIP # # S2 3DES # H2 SHA1 # Z2 ZLIB # # S3 CAST5# H3 RIPEMD160# Z3 BZIP2# # S4 BLOWFISH # # # # # # # # # H6 TIGER192 # # # S7 AES # # # # S8 AES192 # H8 SHA256 # # # S9 AES256 # H9 SHA384 # # # S10 TWOFISH # H10 SHA512 # # # # H11 SHA224 # # ## ...so you can choose what you prefer (you may choose them all and what is not applicable will be simply omitted), and write it in the form... setpref S10 S9 S8 (and so on) H11 H10 (etc) Z3 Z2 (etc) ...just bear in mind that for H6, the TIGER192 algorithm, you will need specially modified version of GnuPG with more features, and if you really need it for any reasons you may download such one here http://tronogi.tripod.com/gpgcvsdl.html. It also is able to create keys up to 16,384 bits and has some other handy additions. These GPG versions are like any other ones, just having more features, so it works well with The Flying Suc...Mammal too. You install it by simply copying its files over already installed ones. I'm still having some problems with TB!'s integration. For example, I seem to be able to decrypt okay - most of the time - but tonight it still tells me there is no secret key when I try to sign/encrypt using its privacy menu options. WinPT, on the other hand, was working tonight, although now I'm having troubles again. (It keeps defaulting to another open message to sign, and after closing that one it now tells me there it could not extract text from the window.) Again, maybe if I use just one of them I'll be okay. Integrated decryption works with no problem in TBat, using GnuPG. Tricky is with encryption however, since this part of the Bat's being is a bit dull, a bit stubborn and a bit seemingly retarded a longer time already in this regard, so I manage other way for mail encryption (using Clipboard feature in GPGShell, most of the time). Thanks for all of the advice and assistance. As the Sir McAntony Dubbya of/von Boom would say, You Was Welcomes.

It's just code sitting in there for nothing. It's pretty good and legitimate determination, since stupidity is a poor ability to understand and profit from experience, while its antonym, intelligence, denotes ability to recognize connections between things and their essential relations, in experiencing them, and particularly if those experiences are something new. Besides, RCFs are just and only and exclusively _recommendations_, not any form of a strict rules, or laws or anything similar. They are actually a sets of recommended/chosen _habits_, and in no way any sort of standards. Hence those who do not understand the very nature, definition and purpose of RFCs cannot profit from experiencing them as such through the act of reading.

The more side functions is built-in in a software with the basic designated function, the more chances are that they will get in collision, or confused one by another.

The latter is probably more difficult, as The Bat! stores a lot of settings in the registry. But then, as we see with Voyager, this isn't impossible. For now I think, the easier way for RIT would be to allow to install Voyager without encryption. You can set and remove reg entries, before and after use of TB. Like with GnuPG, if you remember. Thus in the Registry will not be left any trail, if that is the concern. Then, you don't have to install (again) TB on a portable media. It's enough if you copy the folder with already installed TB to it. Then, before running TB, you just run the saved TB reg entry (the .reg) file, to inject its settings into Registry, and after you are finished, you run another reg file, to delete the injected settings/entry. The only thing you would have to do is to modify slightly this reg entry, so that it directs to the drive letter of the USB stick or any other removable media. So the point is that TB can run portable, and even very much portable. The Very Much method consists of compression of executables (counting in dll files as well), so it occupies less space. This compression is possible with UPX program, for instance. If you compress some older versions, 1.4 or so, then you can run TB even from a floppy diskette.

Some joker has told trend that this registry key is an indication of malware infection. Tosh. I'll contact Trend tomorrow and see what they have to say. Actually you should rather consult some third party source(s) then, since the both Trend and TheBat are by definition biased. This way you could get much less mere emotional reactions instead of clear and precise reasonable definition what a particular reg. key exactly does and serves for. Until then I only could confirm that the branch/path HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\RIT\The Bat! is indeed used for storing configuration data, and that just any application (bad or good one) can make/remove just any registry key anywhere. Whether TB is phoning home should be easiest to determine by a firewall, for instance, and/or any other gadget monitoring activity of programs. - -- Mica PGP keys nestled at: http://blueness.port5.com/pgpkeys/ [Earth LOG: 666 day(s) since v3.0 unleashing] OSs: Windows 98 SE Micro Lite Professional IVa Enterprise Millennium Windows XP(ee) Micro Lite Professional 1.6, and, for TB sometimes, Gentoo and Vector Linuxes via Wine... ~~~ For personal mail please use my address as it is *exactly* given in my From|Reply To field(s). ~~~ -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v1.4.4-svn-4169 o tiger192 (MSYS/MinGW32) iQEVAwUBRKOvIrSpHvHEUtv8AQiU0wf/ZL+4RMqg6tz4gEqt5hUIJejwnlGNElHo 5jTJDU33EWq2rJy7thWV0xbNB2D8fcYanTX2gogFoY+Xx8ix7p6HXf8GWewMx4yP 0SPzUlMoqocuSXeSGhS2JU9RmjkvDzFD80O58t3mEZuWZqiPP93SHr/j2lQNlPQL U7C+8/JstbiKymZaEUylH6LBFfw3PSYBPijERHgKhrlQmXOW1a8b+NTmUF8SqRfW ukN7eIiPYZntqhc3JOW8z3uMzWhXd88o5KxG2d/N5tIOAUw1BCzvBvsqeLxKSTLr DgBo5FvkoBqoCYNI6ggPmgxBvpc2mV9ZVRtq3ZevxlsQf6dQWKvTkg== =83/Q -END PGP SIGNATURE- Current version is 3.80.06 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

It's very easy to overcome this agoraphobic feeling simply by filling up the unused space with something else, or using a large, or extra large, fonts. It also might be a matter of just a taste, yes, exactly this. I, for instance, prefer very few pieces of furniture in rooms, for I love to feel the space, and to use it myself. Aside that I love, sometimes, to ride my roller-skates. And so...if I'd had all this space loaded from wall to wall, I could only rip my shirt and possibly the rest if any up and scream. For me it would be an experience of an ultimate distastefulness, and this would be my usual, aesthetic and kinesthetic, reaction. It's something i never understood : why the width of the display should be defined by the writer of a mail and not by the recipient ? the writer cannot know wich screen the recipient would use, resulting most of the time in a wrongly defined wrap width... If Shakespeare would hang around live, he would, I recon, give you a better answer. I, though, can offer just this one: The writer _never_ knows what kind of a mind his work will encounter and enter.[1] If he would know this in advance he would only rip his shirt and possibly the rest if any up and scream. That's why people have invented margins. When a mail is not hardwrapped, as the reader, if i want to read the mail with 76 columns, i just ask it to my mail reader program, but if i want to use a bigger or a smaller width i still can... when the mail is hard wrapped i cannot, the writer choosed for me the width i *must* use. Yes. He does so because the matter of formatting is not always just a matter of taste, be it good or bad. Much more : try to read a hardwrapped mail (76 columns) on a 70 columns screen, it's a real pain (yes : i read sometimes my emails on a pda, with less than 76 columns width). Pain is sometimes good, for it's teaching us what we need to learn, if we otherwise are {not prone|prune} to.

Indeed. Hmm. What the wish is for is an _additional_ way of doing it, an a pretty good one at it, too. Not _everything_ MS does is bad, they do have a fairly large usability department. Following the own path of evolution, one has opportunity to evolve up to his maximum and in a most splendid way. Leaving this path though, and trying to execute actions which correspond to other and different paths of evolution makes one's evolution impossible and brings into confusion, as to the sense/purpose of this path, and even identity itself. It is like a duck wanting to be a piglet, or a lion wanting to be an opossum. The intrinsic Secret Power is hidden inside their _own_ identity, not in faked identity of others. Wishing something like that the duck and lion become powerless and lost. Or to put it this way: If Sharon Stone would like to have legs of Grace Jones and Grace Jones would love to have tits or face of Sharon Stone, to increase their personal popularity, then it would look a bit strange, eh? (Although they could run/trot their careers as comediennes. Or as boogie women.) Or, when you would divorce woman #1 and then marry woman #2, and then expect of woman #2 to behave, or look, in some very specific ways of woman #1. It doesn't go, and such things finish with a built in some piece of crockery into your head or similar. The ways woman #1 makes you happy can bring you something totally else with woman #2. Be what you are, is the moral here. Don't even _try_ to be someone else, regardless any possible promise of a real or imaginary reward.[1] Otherwise you will just lose your Secret Power, and what are you then?

If we would have such details given in message list pane, it would just redundantly and needlessly occupy space making it cluttered and dysfunctional. - -- Mica PGP keys nestled at: http://blueness.port5.com/pgpkeys/ [Earth LOG: 545 day(s) since v3.0 unleashing] OSs: Windows 98 SE Micro Lite Professional IVa Enterprise Millennium Windows XP(ee) Micro Lite Professional 1.6, and, for TB sometimes, Gentoo and Vector Linuxes via Wine... ~~~ For personal mail please use my address as it is *exactly* given in my From|Reply To field(s). ~~~ -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- iQEVAwUBRAQ+4rSpHvHEUtv8AQMRvAf8DOpy5QjcwKcD6H5yFho0adns7zlEO7mk Hv5O05q5QatdTj32l4x8SM9MW6m3xzvGJ33hFC4FyUWgdqJMr68MTQQvx2pjoWpo WcZa2MAU/pocIsFsrJ4ooMXVO6pMvB0KGD3m9nI5f3Cebw/oY9hN99x71xo8kzem pfjeHT+ZGSTNwEHdZuHcL5aGI8BaTWXtcLlfC5G+SgfII9qoeLmc5R0UGX0Ydio+ H2sIdi20dRTa+aqsAKKIXFVLL2p1LFtqQ8xpNYkIUUPe8R22FPvAPFH6+A7RyGHM 9updWxgZrSSB2DeV64M0yW2VY50HFAA1y2hgc45P65a81GTEv9eaqQ== =+3pS -END PGP SIGNATURE- Current version is 3.71.03 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
