Hi Marck, S At now, TB insist that you move a message in the course of filtering. S If you want it to remain, the "source" and "destination" folders must S be the same. MDP And, to elaborate further, "destination" *must* be specified. So, an MDP ad-hoc manual filter tied to a hot-key to simply colour a message is MDP not an option because the message has to move *somewhere* as specified MDP in the filter's "Move messages to folder" setting.` As a matter of fact, if the source and destination folders are the same, a message won't be moved if you apply a filter using hot-key. Not so obvious as it should (we will try to make it better), but it works :-) The exception is when the filter conditions should apply - then the message should be moved to the destination folder... -- Sincerely, Stefan ...Daddy, why doesn't this magnet pick up this floppy disk? -- -- View the TBUDL archive at http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBUDL, double click here and send the message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org

The same technique applies to other part of the message list. E.g., click on a person's name in the "From" column while holding down the Alt key and TB would show only messages from the same sender.

That's because you don't want auto line wrapping when you're using a long string of macros or regular expressions. One way to work around this is to open a new message, type what you want in your template and then copy and paste it into the quick template editor. Note that even the new message editor may feel strange to someone new to TB. You can make the editor behave more like a typical windows editor by using the autoformat options. Be warned that this feature has some oddities, so you may want to switch back and forth between using it and disabling it.
