The whole thing needs a rethink, there are far too CW many means of accessing the menus for these, and seemingly no rhyme CW nor reason in what overrides what. I have used The Bat! for very CW many years, and generally it's superb, but View Modes, Global View CW Modes, Folder View Modes and now Tabs. What a hodge podge of CW disparate menus, it needs sorting! I have now managed to lock up TB! CW messing with these, it *appears* using Tabs it will try and select CW more than one tab at a time, and also seems to get its knickers in a CW twist balancing Tabs and View Modes and deciding which to use. The one thing I learned early on, was to set Global View Mode to No View Mode and leave it there. I see no purpose for it and if you set it to anything but No View Mode it just takes over everything. -- Best regards, Stuartmailto:skcu...@fastmail.fm Using The Bat! v6.0.0.21 (BETA) On Windows 7 6.1 Build #7601 Current version is 5.2.2 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Hello Tbudl, A reminder of what tbudl@thebat.dutaint.com typed on: Saturday, September 15, 2012 at 03:01:01 GMT +0200 aas Plus, as suggested before, besides the 3 currently available options, aas an additional 4th option (iPad-like) might really be useful: aas * Headers only aas * Headers and Textual Parts aas * Entire messages aas --- Apply choice to _ most recent messages aas The default might be all messages, but the user could input a number aas like 500 or 1000. I just don't need to see hundreds of thousands of aas email headers from previous decades on an SSD disk where empty aas space is still at a premium, and displaying and browsing such gigantic aas folders is probably just slowing down The Bat. aas I'm now going to drastically cut down on the number of subscribed aas folders to see if it makes any difference on the overall speed and aas usability of the IMAP Bat. :-) I'm not sure about that option, but you could use TB's filtering features to move files to a separate folder based on the number of emails or the age of the emails. This could be an archive folder and you could just unsubscribe that folder. I agree though that there seems to be something wrong with IMAP in general. Things take too long to download, much longer than they used to before the major IMAP upgrade. Large amounts of data seem to get downloaded even though nothing has changed since the last update. Another thing I just discovered, and I wonder if you or someone else could test it. I picked a folder that had over 1000 messages in it and right clicked on the folder and selected empty folder. It appeared to empty the folder and it is now in the process of downloading every message again. In other words the local folder was emptied and now it is filling it up again, instead of emptying the folder on the server and then syncing the empty folder. Also as mentioned earlier filtering messages seems to be hit and miss. -- Best regards, Stuartmailto:scu...@mts.net Using The Bat! v5.2 On Windows 7 6.1 Build #7601 Current version is 4.2.42 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Any other ideas? On a message that has is HTML there should be a little globe with a question mark on it in the header area. Click on it and select Show URL Manager. Once open you can select which images you want to allow to be downloaded. Once allowed they will open from then on. You can do this manually each time or select Show this Window Automatically at the bottom. The idea behind this is to stop bad things form loading in Spam etc. In those cases you will deny them opening an outside images. -- Best regards, Stuartmailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Using The Bat! v4.0.34.3 On Windows XP 5.1 Build #2600 Current version is 4.0.24.0 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Re: Synchronization revisited (gmail/imap/pop)
Hello Achdut18, A reminder of what Achdut18 typed on: Friday, April 11, 2008 at 12:54:10 GMT -0500 A Unfortunately, I have just discovered that while this works for the servers A on which I have non-gmail accounts, this is not working with my g-mail A accounts. Even though I have set account properties in The Bat on BOTH A computers to leave mail on the server for 14 days, the first computer to A download from the gmail server, is the one that gets the mail since the last A download by either of the two computers. The second computer to download will A only pick up newer mail, and not the mail downloaded by the first computer. I A checked my gmail settings and discovered that I have IMAP enabled for each of A my g-mail accounts and nothing is checked in the POP download section of the A settings area. Since I only keep listserv mail in gmail, I never want that A mail deleted from the gmail servers. So, how should I configure those A settings so that The Bat will be able to download the mail to both computers? You need to recreate those accounts in The Bat as IMAP accounts. Then you can do what is the best way to go anyway. IMAP rules. (When it works right). :) Note also Dwights reply that you don't need to keep all you files on the IMAP account. You can download to your hard drive and archive them, then delete them off the IMAP server.

(Which, if I synchronize every night, I really wouldn't need to leave it on the server for more than 24 hours, I would think.) However, for synchronization, I can either use The Bat's own synchronization feature OR Dan Lester's recommendation to use the Directory Toolkit. By leaving the mail on the server you do not need to sync except for Sent mail. When you connect to your email account with either machine it will download the mail that the current computer has not downloaded before. (Note: you must make sure that both computers are set up to leave mail on server.) To get sent mail you would need to CC or BCC yourself. If you plan on syncing the 2 computers anyway, then you do not need to leave messages on the server as it would serve no purpose. -- Stuartmailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Using The Bat! v4.0.20.2 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 2 Current version is 4.0.18 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Re[3]: Best way to use The Bat on two home computers?
Hello Achdut18, Tuesday, April 1, 2008, 11:20:39 PM, you wrote: That brings us to the question of synchronization. Although The Bat offers a synchronization feature; after reading about this in the Help Topics, I assume that the feature only works if I have The Bat set up in IMAP, rather than POP3. Is this correct? No, synchronization works with POP, it is not necessary with IMAP. If that is so, then, if I want to be able to download messages on the laptop as well as the desktop in a POP3 environment, I would have to be willing to live with not being able to see on one computer, what messages were read or not read on the other. Is that correct? Not sure what you mean here as your original hypothesis was wrong. Alternatively, could I set up The Bat on the laptop, but have it point to the mail directory on the desktop where the messages are kept, and merely copy that directory to my laptop when I travel with it, which is only a few times a year? Yes this should work. If the answer to this is yes, how do I make an installation of The Bat on the laptop point to the mail directory on the desktop? Two different things. Either you use the mail directory on the desktop as your main directory in which case when you travel your laptop would not be able to find it, or you let the laptop create its own directory for mail and then when you want to go travelling you copy the mail directory from the desktop. Neither of these would work well as when you travel messages that you download on the road would not end up back on your desktop. Would this, then, obviate the need to blind BCC myself on every message sent from the laptop? See above. And, if I do that, will downloads initiated from the laptop place mail in the mail directory on the desktop so long as I have the laptop's installation of The Bat point to the Mail folder located on the desktop? See above. Just as an aside, IMAP is not particularly slow, and really is best for what you are trying to do. Having said that I don't think IMAP in TB! is quite ready enough for the business environment. Again to test this for yourself, sign up for a free account with fastmail.fm and subscribe to The Bat lists with that account. You can then see how it works. Having said that I would still think that BCCing yourself and leaving messages on the server until downloaded by the laptop would be your best bet. -- Stuartmailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Using The Bat! v4.0.18.7 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 2 Current version is 4.0.18 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

I would settle for just GMail support at MJS this stage. In another thread I include an admission from RITLabs MJS there are problems with it. IMAP with Gmail works here, with the caveat that IMAP generally has problems such as counters not always working and refreshing not working well. True it is frustrating, but it can be tolerated if necessary. Having said that I really look forward to Ritlabs addressing the problems and making IMAP as reliable as POP. I run 4 IMAP accounts and each one has its own quirks.
