How is your disk space? Also, I heard that TB shows warnings when a TBB file exceeds 2 GB. Have you ever compressed your Outbox? JR Don't know if this msg is connected to the split message setting, JR if it's a convenience, a buglet or something else. Doesn't sound convenient to me. ;-) -- Cheers, Thomas.

Don't know if this msg is connected to the split message setting, if it's a convenience, a buglet or something else. Whatever it was, I'd never seen it before. Anyone else? I didn't investigate in dinky guts, but noticed that when you write a letter, frequently doing Ctrl+S (a habit under Windows), it seems that TB's editor does the same as Word: it saves all copies from this session somewhere (probably in OS's temp folder) and used memory increases. You can check this out by compressing outbox during writing a larger letter. Usually, if I write a longer letter (7-12 KB), doing lots of modifications, after compressing Outbox, contraption shows few MB freed. I suppose that if you add an attachment *before* you have finished the letter, this amount of memory might be even much larger. I didn't, yet, get any error messages, but sometimes, TB starts to act strangely in various ways (loosing focus after Ctrl+S, messing with GUI elements, some selecting functions etc.) so that I have to restart it. - -- Mica PGP key uploaded at: http://pgp.mit.edu/ once just before breakfast Antispam | 8 spam letters in last 34 h. o | 192 non-spam letters in last 34 h. y | By BayesIt! 0.5.5 -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- iD8DBQFAyv1m9q62QPd3XuIRAvf/AKCdGvuHpcy67Ln4eML0A26IghvwswCcDEUE yCGN+S6nMCJx2Z9JDN6Rw7k= =90gK -END PGP SIGNATURE- Current version is 2.11.02 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
