If you config the filter to append new data to the end of the file, you'll have file in your disk with the list of msgids issued by your program. What can you do with that file? I don't know :) I can't find a way to read it in an incoming filter, but maybe there's some way around -- Ricardo M.

Well, spam emails and some repetitive routine messages get marked as read. In Outhouse, I had mirror rules, but now I search, in most cases, for an email address somewhere within the header, and this applies quite well for both outgoing and incoming mail. Outhouse also has an option to save replies in the same folder as the original. By now using a single rule (usually not even compound rules), I avoid the need to deliberately reproduce the same functionality in The Bat!. -- --Scott. mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Using The Bat! 1.61 under Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 on an AMD Athlon XP 1900 (1.6G real, 1.9G effective) with 512MB.

RMR> It would white-list everyone you send a message to, and not exactly RMR> everyone you reply to, but I guess it's close enough for most people. Or even better, make an outgoing filter which looks for the presence of "^Re:" in the subject (without quotation marks), enable regular expressions and add the recipient to an address book. This would solve the problem to collect addresses from replies only. Although I'd guess from the original message that collecting the addresses from every person you write a message to would be just fine. -- Regards, Lars The Bat! 1.62/Beta5 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Current version is 1.61 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

It would white-list everyone you send a message to, and not exactly everyone you reply to, but I guess it's close enough for most people. And they are not tied to an specific folder, since they apply to messages from the outbox. I don't use it, so I'm not sure if it works, but I guess it should. -- Ricardo M.

A target folder is ok, since I sooner or later move my sent mail to the inbox anyway, to be automatically sorted by the same filters that handle incoming email; I'd just rather have things happen immediately instead of waiting for me to manually move the replies and re-filtering. -- --Scott. mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Using The Bat! 1.61 under Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 on an AMD Athlon XP 1900 (1.6G real, 1.9G effective) with 512MB.

General questions
Hi, all! I have a couple of general questions, prompted by recent discussions. First, in the sorting office, you can set an email to have various addresses added to a specific address book. Is there any way to call this from a template? That way, if I reply to someone, I can have the name/email/etc added to a whitelist address book. I can think of some other interesting uses of this also. Second, it would be nice if there was a way to have a template apply a specific filter to a folder on demand. Prior discussions indicate that this capability isn't available, unless one wants to use a third-party app to control The Bat!. -- --Scott. mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Using The Bat! 1.61 under Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 on an AMD Athlon XP 1900 (1.6G real, 1.9G effective) with 512MB.
