Disabling spam filter
Hi - Since I upgraded the last time, this spam device has driven me bonkers. I have just scanned over 800 messages here, and haven't found a fix, and can only hope I haven't missed it. Thanks be that Batters are so good about subject lines! If the thing can't be disabled altogether, is it at least possible to tell it to block or permit domain names? This business of allowing/blocking each individual gif or jpg is totally insane! They change with every mailing on much of this stuff, and filtering on those defeats the purpose entirely! TIA, and sorry for the desperation, but it takes me longer to mess with that than to delete the spam!

1/27/2009 RO You're talking about the Download URL manager, that isn't a spam RO filter, but gives you the possibility to configure from what sites you RO want to see the pictures and from what sites not. RO Don't select the individual messages, but their root when choosing to RO allow or block. Many have several roots, as many as 5 on the worst. And it is evident that they change the content from mailing to mailing, so that one determination is not enough. EBay notices frequently have several; since various items/vendors are involved, how could they be the same? Should I have to allow every vendor notification they send out??? I've been fighting the thing ever since I installed that version. I can't believe I'm the only user with this issue! RO AFAIK You can't disable the feature. No offense, but I really, really, hope you are wrong. But .. thanks anyway.

1/27/2009 DC you can always just allow everything I am thinking that will have to be it, and I'm sure I won't have to wait long before I see it again. I haven't even been able to find a way to bring the wretched thing up independently! I didn't think I was any stupider than usual, but I've really had it up to here with the thing.

If you are referring to the URL manager then you can disable it entirely or call it up as needed. To open it click on the earth icon on the header bar and select Show URL Manager. There you can de-select the show this window automatically check box. This will cause TB to ignore HTML pictures and act like TB used to. You can also open this same window when you receive an email you want to see the pictures in and allow them for that email. This usually lets all pictures from that emailer through from that point on. I hope this is what you meant, if not please ignore me altogether. ;) -- Stuartmailto:scu...@mts.net Using The Bat! v4.1.9.3 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 3 Current version is 4.1.7 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

If I can find it again now that I've got it turned off, I'll explore it further, but maybe I'll just leave it turned off :-) SC I hope this is what you meant, if not please ignore me altogether. ;) No, no, thanks very much! I was feeling really stupid, which of course adds to the aggravation! I'm much more mellow now that the thing is turned off! lol! And as a nice little bonus, while I was scanning those hundreds of messages trying to find a reference to the thing, I discovered I could pipe my gmail messages to TB. I went and did it - easiest config I've ever done, barring TB's basic configs - and that's working too. This is unquestionably the best support group on the net! Thanks to all who've replied!
