TB bevahing strangely: spontaneously sent messages - can this be stopped?
Hi, all What could be the cause of The Bat sending out old messages? This morning I became aware that at least four old messages from three different user accounts resident in our Bat software at home, have been sent out in the past 24 hours. I am aware of at least four occurrences, but there could be more. It is fitting that there is, on this list, a perfect example: the only message registered as having been received on this list yesterday, was one from our home-based account for general list serv mail: achdu...@gmail.com. That message was written on July 4, 2010, yet, was received by the list yesterday!! Even more curious is that our sent mail folder shows this message as having been sent on July 4, 2010, but there is no record in my Bat folder, here, at the office (using a different e-mail client and account) of that message ever having been received by the list until yesterday, January 9, 2011. I suspect I would find the same behavior vis a vis other messages. What could be causing this strange behavior? What steps can I take to stop this from happening? Avram L.

Hallo Avram, On Mon, 10 Jan 2011 13:51:39 -0600GMT (10-1-2011, 20:51 , where I live), you wrote: SA What could be the cause of The Bat sending out old messages? Can't explain it. TB only sends messages that it finds in the outbox. Once it has left the outbox, TB won't send it (again). However, I tracked the messages sent to this list and its headers state that message has been received by gmail only yesterday, so it doesn't look like gmail is mucking up. Any parties after gmail, like the list server aren't misbehaving either. So it really looks like the faulty behaviour is on your system. Have you got any messages left in your outbox? Does your log mention anything about sending a message to this list? If not then you should figure out what other software you're using the interferes with your mail transport. Especially with it's acting like a (transparent) proxy server. The most likely culprit would be your virus scanner. Did you changed your preferred virus scanner somewhere arounf July last year? And did you change it back recently? I'm just thinking aloud, not putting any blame... -- Groetjes, Roelof Moderator control - When the Sainz go marchin' in. http://www.voormijalleen.nl/ The Bat! 5.0.0.127 BETA Windows Vista 6.0 Build 6002 Service Pack 2 6 pop3 accounts, 1 imap account OTFE disabled Quad Core 2.4GHz 4 GB RAM pgpTy5VREUJAm.pgp Description: PGP signature Current version is 4.2.23 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
