RegEx request
Hello RegEx experts, I usually BCC to myself, so that I have the outgoing emails in my Inbox. That's in my templates. My choice. For the different departments, we also have group emails. These are set up so that any email for that group will be auto-forwarded on the server to each member of the group. If I CC to my and copy the group email, I receive it twice in my Inbox. While the duplicate is easy to delete, I want to prevent this from happening. My code idea is as follows: IF "CCList" includes "gro...@example.com" DO_NOTHING ELSE add "BCC=myem...@example.com" ENDIF Is that possible in RegEx? TIA. -- Cheers, Thomas.

MS Exchange / Hotmail
Hello Tbudl, How to read emails on MS Exchange with TB!? Our university server used to give POP server access, but I understand Microsoft disabled this sometime last year. IT department told me that TB! can use MAPI (they found that on a website) but I still cannot set this up. Right now I am using the webmail, which I don't like. Any hints how to set this up in TB!? TIA. -- Cheers, Thomas. Message reply created with The Bat!

The template macros are not case-sensitive. I believe that you inadvertedly used "$" instead of "%" in the template that didn't work, as you did in your reply just now. Could you check that? -- Cheers, Thomas. Message reply created with The Bat!

Re: Internet Reconnect
Hello Adrian, Sunday, March 6, 2022, 2:45:18 PM, you wrote: > Just activate Options, Periodical checking for the e-mail accounts, but > probably not a good idea more often than every 30 minutes. Checking only every 30 minutes would cause problems in business. Apart from the fact that it means I receive tens of emails each time and suddenly have to get very busy, this new bunch of emails will also include a few reminders for non-replies: I receive an urgent enquiry now, it may already be 29 minutes old. I write my reply but the next mail check is in another, say, 28 minutes. They will received my reply almost an hour after their urgent email - in my business, that was OK 10 years ago but not today any more. Why would you think that it is not a good idea to check more often than every 30 minutes? Is there a technical reason? Kindly advise, thanks. -- Cheers, Thomas. Message reply created with The Bat!

There I can choose which header are always shown in the panel. I already now all CC and BCC headers. In the headers in the raw email (source) I personally find it easier to see. Plus, with the F9 keyboard shortcust I can view other headers which I don't want to see for every message, often starting with "X-", or I can see the message body to extract an URL. -- Cheers, Thomas.

Hello Tbudl, I often look at the headers, either to see whether I am in CC or in BCC, or to look at the list of recipients (I am weired and find that easier). I use F9 for that.

TBprotocolsRetr.log
Hello Tbudl, On my new computer, there is one account that cannot check mail. After "FETCH = TLS Handhsake complete", the next entry in the account log is: FETCH - Cannot open file "D:\\TBMail\TBprotocolsRetr.log" The device is not ready. FETCH - connection finished - messages received. I looked in the old computer, and I do have such a file there (469MB!). The mail directory on the new computer is set to another drive. I checked Account / Properties / Files, and it is correctly set to the new drive, and the message files are there too. I have toggled Verbose Log on and off, didn't help. What can be the reason only this account needs this file, and why is it looking in the wrong drive? -- Cheers, Thomas. Message reply created with The Bat!
