 Why?

Navigation, and display size are the issues.   When Message List is
displayed it takes up about 1/3 of the screen starting from the top,
the way I have it.

When I turn it off I have more area to read (less scrolling
adjustments) to read the actual message bodies.

Message List is good for jumping to a post that is not 'next' or
whatever, you know, just a post from some dozen or so posts back in
the list that I wish to quickly refer to and refresh my memory
regarding some point.
  So I toggle on ML and have a quick look at the message, then turn ML
off again and resume reading the messages that I have not yet read
(usually using the space-bar to proceed).

rj currently I use the View menu to toggle View Message List on and off,
rj on and off.
 
 I leave in "on" all the time; I don't understand why you need to turn
 it off. Please explain, so I can follow your thoughts.

I have only a 17 inch monitor with 15.9 viewable area.   Not a lot in
my opinion.
 I like to grab as much as possible viewspace (all if possible) for
 the message body.  Thus I'd like to have a 'Message List' icon.

'View Message List' icon ?

2000-03-11 Thread rellieb-jean

Dear Bat folk
when I have folders open I am forever toggling 'View Message List' on
and off.

I can't believe there is no icon for this function ( and not even a
keyboard shortcut AFAIK).

Is there really such an oversight/missing facility.   I mean, there is
even an icon for 'Copy', but everyone knows Windows already has that
with Control-C.  Well OK, that may be just me, but really I would have
thought there would be more configuration potential re the icons
available or displayed.

currently I use the View menu to toggle View Message List on and off,
on and off.

 Does your job require that you organize all that information into a neat

Thanks for the tip.  I dl'ed this 'DT Search' you mentioned.
http://www.dtsearch.com
It is fairly powerful I feel, and the 30 day shareware looks fine;
- the sort of app I could truly make use of re archiving facility.

   Pity cost is US$199 though.  I will have to dream on for a while.
The trial version doesn't seem to have a thesaurus though, and I
couldn't find it to trial as well.

Re: Digest (02/14/2000 07:56) Special Issue (#2000-387)

2000-02-14 Thread rellieb-jean

Hello list,

 Oh come off it, Paula.  I respond in the tone given, nothing more.

Humm   a bit of self-deception going on there I would say.

   Don't like it, tough.

Yes, very philosophical.
   That's what Hitler said to the Jews wasn't it?   :-/

 Note that the person who originated the "highlighting the newest
 message" said nothing further.

 I'll also point out to her majesty the queen of TBUDL that my response to
 the original poster was not nasty nor contained namecalling.  Further my
 second response in the thread was in kind to the tone set by the user in
 question.

And what about your third? Have you reread that by any chance? You did
start to get unnecessarily jingoistic IMO. Some people just wants or
has a different navigational approach or orientation in a mailing
client, and suddenly they become 'little pricks'. Humm  So what
does that make you? A big prick? . Hey, only kidding. Just
responsing in kind to  the tone you set.   Please don't flame me.  I
am bring joy to this mailing list.

TIA: Subject field empty notify - plus MicroSpell hot key problem.

2000-01-31 Thread rellieb-jean

Has anybody been able to get MicroSpell
http://www.microspell.com
to work with Bat!?

I like Batty (e.g., the searching facility) and are looking forward to
Xanadu (ie. version 2). Another app I enjoy is the visuality of
MicroSpell, and it's HotKey Spell checking did readily work in
conjunction with Agent,
but I cannot for life of me get it to work with Batty.

Any ideas?
  Also is there any way to stop Batty from sending posts without
something in the subject field?

 What's that look like to everyone?  What about replacing *this* with a
 link to this info?  This comes on every single message that's posted
 to the list, and although it's nice to have the info handy when it's
 needed, often when it's needed the obvious in-your-face solution
 doesn't get noticed...

   That sort of overhead is one reason I read this list on digest.  I
just wait till about 4 digests have arrived, and then select them and
export to a text file on desktop to open in NoteTabPro and scroll
thru. In digests there is only *one* of those 'sigs' that you see
above.

Deathwish: rearranging folders deletes files.

2000-01-26 Thread rellieb-jean

I've been trialing Bat on Win98 for a couple weeks now.  Last night I
decided to rearrange some folders in main account.  They had between 5
and 100 messages in each.  Upon moving them I noticed the strange fact
that they no longer had any messages in them - that is, all messages
had mysteriously disappeared during the move. Of course I checked the
'View' (All Messages) and had a look in Windows Explorer at the
relevant folders, and even in the BatTrash, but no, they were gone
alright.   Does anyone know what causes this and what can be done to
prevent it?   It doesn't have to happen because I have moved folders
before this without any problems in Bat.

What does Address Auto View do?

2000-01-24 Thread rellieb-jean

What does Address Auto View do?
 If I click it, a new little window pops up, and I see some addresses
re current post I have selected, but as soon as I click behind it, it
disappears again, never to be seen again, unless I again invoke it via
the menu; by toggling if off then on again.

So apparently it is 'on', but where it is?

Quoted text in Bat! too 'bold' for my liking. Can I turn it off.

2000-01-17 Thread rellieb-jean

I am trialling Bat! The quoted text looks bold.  Is there any way I
can turn that bold off.   It is too 'in-your-face' and draws attention
away from the actual reply.
