Strange Dial up Problems!!
I don't know whether this is a serious problem with The bat - but here goes In the Bat (Beta v1.52 exec 1 and also previous versions)) I have the Dial up networking set so that if I'm offline and want to check both of my accounts (one ordinary pop3 and the other a Yahoo mail pop account) I can connect, check for mail and automatically disconnect. But I very often have problems with timeouts waiting to connect to the mail server/s to check or send new mail etc. My dial up works fine and connects without any problems but then The Bat just sits there waiting for something to happen and eventually times out. This doesn't happen all the time, but enough to be a real nuisance. The really strange thing is that if I'm already online (from having started Internet Explorer or some other net program) and I select to check all accounts in the Bat - then there is never a problem and the checking takes literally only a second or two...every time??? How can this be? The other really strange thing is that Outlook Express 5 and Outlook 2000 don't seem to suffer this problem and rarely have trouble accessing the server first time. Any advice??

Have you been using my machine :) Seriously, I was having the same problems, although I'm on cable. I noticed when the Bat! was deleting post along with the download process all of a sudden it would hang. I've had this problem before and I attribute it to one of 3 three things. Norton AV, my disk is fragmented over 6%, and I haven't cleaned out the registry for awhile. What one thing has to do with the other and why it seems to correlate to how the Bat! functions I couldn't tell you. I do know if I run a registry utility and clean it up, defrag my disk, and then reload The Bat! exe the problem goes away. Go figure. It seems to happen a couple times a year and the same fix always works for this machine. I defrag weekly so this problem has lessened. Oh, I also go through and delete a bunch of stuff out of my folders, that seems to help too. ( I back up or copy the folder first then do a delete of the originals) Like I said, why it happens and why this works is beyond me:) -- Cheers, Dean The Bat1.52 Beta/1 -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: PGP 6.5i iQA/AwUBOrfp4KWeywYix9RYEQLXQACg7Gl4t4i24FSJtOp1nTmxOeaNRpwAoPlG MAVD3px1Ac/VURS9uQLK4iQ9 =3tBI -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- __ Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org
