Re[2]: Inbox - Known Folder? WHAT ARE THESE FOLKS THINKING?
TM [+] The Known incoming mail filter for moving messages from known TM senders to a special folder so the Inbox can be left for unknown TM senders and spam :-) Well I've been trying to figure this out ever since it was implemented, seen all kinds of people upset about this... It boggles the mind that several WEEKS after this (potentially very useful) feature is implemented there's still NOTHING on the updated program's FAQ. This begs the question: WHAT on earth are these good folks THINKING? And please, please don't tell us that they don't have enough resources to hire a full-time,. professional help/FAQ writer. If TB truly has millions of users, by now Ritlabs is extremely wealthy, especially considering the exchange rate of western currencies for theirs... Lo and behold, this morning I also get a message from Ritlabs stating the changes since 1.53. Wow, how many weeks has it been since the first iteration of 1.60 and we're getting this NOW? I'm sticking to 1.53... Do others feel the same way? Call me crazy but in my humble, non-geeky opinion what WOULD have made sense - and created a lot less havoc among TB users, AND generated a lot more business in these spam-crazed times - would have been for Ritlabs to create a folder called unknown for all the spam... and to implement an easy, customer-friendly way to customize it. Having been a Bat user for a while now I'm convinced that we are dealing here with a team that is made not only of good code-writers but also of very intelligent people. So, I will ask my question once again (not that I expect an answer from them, but perhaps some constructive thoughts from other users): WHAT on earth are these good folks THINKING? Have a great weekend, everyone.

PP I think it is already partial available ... PP Ctrl+W will add sender to address book, Ctrl+B will delete it ...

Re[2]: Inbox -- known
Upgrading from b to c, the inbox - known folders remain. But, I did a fresh install of c today--no knowns, nor is there a known filter anywhere in sight. Also, did an upgrade of a 1.53 to 1.60c and no knowns appeared.

Sorry RITLabs but there are much more important enhancements needed. DH The Inbox - Known can be of help if one does not have much experience DH with filtering. It is therefore a good (and very small) addition to DH beginners. (Note: I haven't used it, yet.) I would think that the concept of simply filtering to different folders based on the idea of grouping content is much more intuitive than the idea of dividing mail into that which is matched against your address book, and that which isn't. And as for beginners, I would suggest they are *highly* unlikely to start with TB. They start with what comes on their pre-installed OS, and they gradually start looking around for alternatives as they learn more about what can be done and what they'd like to do that OE can't do. By the time they ever discover TB, my guess is they already know a lot about filtering. And *anyone* who uses an e-mail client, even for the first time, is going to have a pretty good intuitive feel for what an Inbox is for -- what it does and what they can expect to find in it. However, TB now presents that theoretical new user with two of them. You tell me which is the less confusing alternative to a raw computer rookie. :) DH The SmartBat is useful for transferring text of any kind (including DH filters) between accounts, messages, even programmes). Easier than copy to the clipboard and paste where you want it? I admit to not having explored this feature almost at all, but from the description above it sounds like . . . the clipboard. And I already have one with the OS that works perfectly. DH The calculator has been put to good use within templates (I've seen at DH least one case in point by Peter Palmreuther). The Evaluate menu DH item is merely a by-product of the new %CALC macro. I'm sure *ALL* of this stuff can be used. :)) None of it is totally worthless, except maybe the Inbox - Known (ducking and running). :)) But *where* do you draw the line? There is nothing on my box, with about 20 gigs of programs, that I consider worthless. sarcasm So let's include *all* of it in TB. In fact, let's turn TB into an operating system, and be done with it. And since I'm going to e-mail that digital film clip to my father after I edit it, why can't I edit it right inside the same program that is going to mail it? /sarcasm I have simply two points: 1) There is probably some place where a line should be drawn, beyond which features tend to clutter and distract more than they add utility. (And I would say that features that put buttons where they interfere even slightly with automatic user program interaction probably are close to if not over that line.) 2) When there are *basic* issues outstanding, any attention to features that might fall into the category above is energy that could better be spent elsewhere -- and *especially* if there is even the remotest chance that adding one of these features is going to compromise overall stability in any way. But, hey, I realize this argument means nothing anyway, because the Inbox - Known is highly unlikely to ever disappear, I'm quite sure. I just hope basic things like the ability to communicate in all the world's *major* languages might get taken care of before anymore cutesy stuff gets tacked on. I doubt if the Inbox - Known feature will sell *one* additional copy of the program. And I seriously mean that, because it's an idea so incredibly unique that virtually no one knows they have a need for it. :)) Handling character sets that are used by about 1/4 of the planet's population might do a heck of a lot more for RIT's bottom line, perhaps. I mean, hey, I have an Inbox - Known, but I have to use Outlook to communicate with half of my address book. Life just doesn't get any better. :) Best, Yuki mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Current Ver: 1.60 / 1.60a FAQ: http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

As did I. No problem deleting it at all. Then when I finally figured out that it was a much better way to filter spam than the stuff I had I recreated the folder and then found out I could name it whatever I wanted and did so. Just have to edit the known filter to use the new folder name.
