Title: Re: mail ticker exclusions? Hello Tom, Thanks Miguel, I had actually disabled mail ticker already for all accounts but the flying is not affected by this setting :( Right.

mail ticker exclusions?
Hello Everyone, Just created a new imap account which will be primarily handled by a different office. Emails received here are supposed to be handled by other people and at this stage I am just testing. Is there any way to exclude this account from the mail ticker/ flying bat indicating new mail.

Mail ticker
Hello TBUDLs, Cancel red alert. I don't know what happened but I left the computer for a while and when I came back and did a new fetch, it worked.

I had hoped to be able to show you what appears on my machine when I invoke the mail ticker but, it was not to be. I'll have to describe what I'm seeing instead. I have not been able to determine what the green square is which is also displayed on my ticker just as you describe. The A and P might be the AM or PM associated with the time of receipt of the message as that is what my ticker shows below the size. I don't know why your ticker would not show the time properly but we have seen some display problems caused by Windows font size.

Upon receipt the formerly green square displayed in the ticker has been replaced by a red square with an arrow in it. I tested this with a low priority message and I think that you are correct. It had a square with a downward arrow (and the From: and Subj: info was dimmed!). I then noticed that when I was composing a message and clicked on the Options Menu to select Low Priority, the icons to the left of the priority selections looked just like the ones in the Mail Ticker. Also, when I sent my original message I had only seen one P but subsequently noticed many more and no As. I (eventually!) realized that I had sent my message around Noon and that the A/P display must be a failed attempt to show me the time of reception. Switching to non-Thin view shows the date below the A/P but still no time shown. Well, since the main purpose for me in the Mail Ticker is to pop up when *any* mail has arrived (replacing the flapping bat wings) the actual content of the Ticker is of less importance. I actually am a little surprised that there is so little customization of the Ticker available. I would expect RitLabs to allow me to determine what is shown for each new message or even just the number of new messages, since if there are many, I have to wait an unknown amount of time to see that info. Oh well, maybe a wishlist item.

Re: Can I make folder creation default to NOT show unread messages in Mail Ticker?
Hello Privateofcourse, There's another thing, which I may or may not have remembered correctly, but didn't the early TB! versions have an entry for New Message in the Right-Click context menu for folders? I seem to remember that, but maybe I'm mistaken and confusing it with something else. Regardless, that's something I'd like to see added under the 'New' context menu sub-menu...because out of habit I seem to look there first to create a new message when a folder is highlighted. I don't recall if there was ever the new message option from the folder popup, if there was I never used it.

I use the mail ticker very sparingly to let me know when an email arrives that I really want to know about as soon as possible. I create common folders with a filter to receive filtered messages by the person, and it is annoying to have to manually uncheck the 'Show unread messages in Mail Ticker ... ' box. Any help?

No Mail Ticker
Hello TB User Discussion List, I've had the Mail Ticker off for a while but decided to turn it back on. I went to Options/Preferences/Mail Ticker and made sure my settings matched the Help document. I clicked on folders and picked all folders. I clicked on Age Limits - neither is checked. There are many unread mails - yet no mail ticker :-( Any ideas? -- Best regards, Bill TB!

I created a new folder, TBUDL2, and copied all the mails from the TBUDL folder to it. Then I deleted the TBUDL folder. (Incidentally, with select-all and copy to folder the mails moved in a flash. And with a progress graph, too. Most delightful.) After that, I created a new TBUDL folder and moved the mails back to it (not to have to change my filter) and now that folder is stable, like all the others.

Jumpy Mail Ticker
Hello 9Val! It was truly comforting to me to read your response to Miguel on tbudl in mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] , where you said, among a lot of other great things: 9 ... As you probably know, in most cases every evening I make a 9 daily build for internal testing ... So, if building and testing is still going on, is there a chance you can have a look at why the mail ticker is still jumping? Additionally, since I don't consistently read my mail with the ticker the way Paul Cartwright and some others do, I have a focus problem which might be related: When I begin to select messages in the main window from the folder message lists, I use Sort by Received time, descending order and Thread by, None. I like to just go down through the mails chronologically, since I read everything. So, I read a message. Then I click on the blue Next arrow. And instead of the next September 2, 2004, message, I will get one from February 25, 2004. Or from August 2. Or June 15. It's random. Usually from the same folder, but not always. I can re-set the conditions. (It doesn't seem to matter whether I've chosen No View Mode or Generic View Mode.) Then they will stay stable and I can use the blue Next arrow reliably, until I go to look in another folder. When I come back, the focus is jumpy again. I hoped that this would not carry over from v. 2.12.00 to v. 3.0. However, just like the jumpy mail ticker--to which I wonder if it might not be related--it continues as a minor annoyance. Thank you for considering this problem, if you have the time. I appreciate everything you have done with TB! and your excellent communication with all of us more than words can say!

This doesn't happen very often (I usually read the message immediately or ignore the ticker for a few minutes). But there are times when I am in the middle of something and the ticker is distracting. I've tried making the actual scroll box really small, but it still gets in the way on those few occasions. Selecting Options - Preferences - Display Mail Ticker isn't that big of a deal, but it would be nice to just quickly toggle the ticker (that's a phrase that needs saying more) Plus, I sometimes forget to turn the ticker BACK ON when I'd like it to be on. Displaying the Connection Center has the ability to assign shortcut keys, so I thought Mail Ticker should as well (they are grouped together in Preferences). Also, I REALLY wish some of the shortcuts assignments could be actual toggles and not one shortcut for ON, one shortcut for OFF.

Re: Mail Ticker?
Hello ~John, Is there a way to get the Mail Ticker to only display new messages from certain folders? Yes. You have to select it on each folder Properties (Folder/Properties or right click on a folder). -- Best regards, Miguel A.
