Do you use all of TB!'s features since they're all there to be used, or do you use the features you need? In the same way, why use all the macros merely because they're provided Your argument is not making sense. I have a cut mark. Merely using a cutmark doesn't address all the problems with a long signature. The main problem in the context of a discussion list is the repeated transmission of that extra data to all members of the list. The bandwidth dramatically adds up.

Hi Mary, This changes the configuration as it's sent to: dash space dash dash. Therefore, everything below it is quoted upon Reply, when Macros for quoting are in a person's template. That answered my next question, which was why the dash space dash dash delimiter works.

I use macros for quoting but nothing below TGM Michael's cutline is quoted. ~shrug~ My templates are very old, from when I first got The Bat! I had a simple % quote line. A number of us did, I think. So when people began signing with PGP/Mime, that would change the basic delimiter of dash dash space (Enter, for new line) to what you see as Michael's cut-line: dash space dash dash. And it didn't work, since the set-up was for dash-dash space.. So Marck gave me an expression to put in my Reply template. It recognizes the PGP/Mime configured cut-line, which is what Michael has. I imagine that this expression, or something like it, is in the Macro that you are using. -- Best regards, Mary :Mary: The Bat! 2.12.00 on Windows XP 5.1 2600 Service Pack 1 Current version is 2.12.00 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Re: Playing with BayesIT macros
Hi Mary and list, On Tuesday, August 3, 2004 at 15:52:49 GMT -0500 (which was 22:52 where I live) Mary Bull wrote (at least in parts) and made these valuable points on the subject of Playing with BayesIT macros: MLW I am using %CutHere from MyMacros. I was told it was perfect. It is as correct as a handmade can be too. There is also a TB! macro %ISSGINATURE (in a QT)which should care about a cut delimiter too (I didn't try that one myself). It's the best that can be done, since you are signing with PGP/Mime. To be exact: not PGP/MIME but PGP inline. With PGP/MIME there is no need for changing lines beginning with dash as the seperation is done by different (MIME coded) parts. This changes the configuration as it's sent to: dash space dash dash. Therefore, everything below it is quoted upon Reply, That is not true anymore, I was recently told. Since a couple of versions ago TB! recognizes the dashspacedashdashspace mofification of PGP as a valid signature itself. This was such a problem for some of us that Marck wrote an expression that one can include in one's Address Book Reply template which will recognize dash space dash dash in addition to dash-dash-space as a cut-mark, and exclude all text below it from the quotes in Reply. Since then this macro isn't needed anymore for the sig delimiter. One positive side effect is suppressing the _beginning PGP-line too. I just know that it makes your cut-mark work for me. For someone without that, your cut-mark as changed by PGP/Mime won't work. see above :-) -- Regards Michael powered by The BAT! 2.13 Lucky Beta/1, Useless Macro Collection 1.7.751/rc1, and MyMacros 1.11 with usual problems of Windows XP Pro 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 1 Current version is 2.12.00 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

I do not use any special cleaning macros and as all templates for the tb-lists (including tbot) are AB-Group templates they are exactly the same for each TB-List - and the cut off works automagically. -- Regards Michael powered by The BAT! 2.13 Lucky Beta/1, Useless Macro Collection 1.7.751/rc1, and MyMacros 1.11 with usual problems of Windows XP Pro 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 1 Current version is 2.12.00 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
