Educational Version Headers
Hi all, :) This is my first posting to the TBUDL list. I just started trying out The Bat! a couple of days ago. So far I'm impressed. If I choose to purchase The Bat, I qualify for the educational discount (I am an elementary school teacher and have already written to The Bat support to make sure that I qualify). I did a little reading through the TBUDL archives yesterday, and saw that the educational version is notated in the header of each e-mail sent. One person mentioned that the header for that version gave out too much information. Exactly what info is in the educational header that isn't in the standard version of The Bat? I'm currently using the evaluation version of The Bat, so I won't be able to check that out until after I purchase one version or the other. One other observance that I made is in the amount of information in the headers of the evaluation version of The Bat vs. that of my current e-mail client, Becky. There appears to be a *lot* more info revealed in The Bat headers (evaluation) version that in that of Becky. Does this change in the regular version of The Bat, or is this the norm? Thanks for your help. -- Best regards, Kim [EMAIL PROTECTED] Current version is 1.62 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

No. Your version is fully functionable. Press ctrl+shift+K on any message and all headers will be displayed.

I don't know about Becky's headers, but there is no difference in behavior between your evaluation copy and a registered one. -- Cheers Peter Documentation is like sex: when it is good, it is very, very good; and when it is bad, it is better than nothing.

If you believe it is too much information that you're in the educational sector, there are tools to cut this off. But there is nothing more hidden in the headers. Great to know. My worry was that it would show the name of the school where I teach, or something along those lines, and for safety purposes, I don't wish that to be in the headers. Thank goodness that isn't the case anyway. To be honest, although I qualify for the educational version, I'm thinking about spending the extra $10 and getting the standard version of The Bat instead. I think it's the educational label in the header that's persuading me in that direction. No. Your version is fully functionable. Press ctrl+shift+K on any message and all headers will be displayed. I did a check on the headers of a couple of random messages. Thanks. :) I don't know about Becky's headers, but there is no difference in behavior between your evaluation copy and a registered one. It's nice to know that this version is fully functionable, and What you see is what you get, so to speak. It makes evaluating The Bat so much easier and straightforward! Thanks for your help, Peter. :) -- Best regards, Kim [EMAIL PROTECTED] Current version is 1.62 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
