Problems importing emails from outlook
Hi all, I've been trying to convert a friend of mine to The Bat, but we're having a lot of trouble importing his existing emails from Outlook (Office XP version). Whenever we attempt to import the messages, TB throws up an error about lack of storage space. I had a search of the list archives and saw that other people have had this problem before, and the solution was to split the messages up into smaller folders and importing them folder at a time. We tried splitting his messages in Outlook down to folders of about 500 messages but still got the same error. There are well over 60,000 messages to import so splitting them into smaller groups than that really isn't an option. His machine has several gig of disc space and 512MB of RAM, so it's not that. Are there any other ways around this? Converting people will be tricky if we can't import from Outlook properly :(. Cheers, Tim.

However, your comment that it works when Outlook is selected as the default mail client but not when TB is selected gives me a clue. Outlook and TB require different versions of the MAPI DLL to act as default simple MAPI handler and I suspect that, while you switched default client, you did not configure TB as the default simple MAPI handler. Outlook is brain dead and can't (IME) act as simple MAPI handler unless it is also the default mail client -- so simple MAPI has no valid handler on your system.

TB! needs the same or slightly more disk space to import them, as they are being DUPLICATED and imported without DELETING the MSO mail files!

The reason that you cannot see the grayed out signatures in your own messages is because you do not use a cut mark above your signature. TB uses this to work out where your signature starts, and what to show in grey in the Rich Text Viewer. The cut mark is the '-- ' (dash dash space) that you see on the messages. Using this helps many mail clients recognise signatures, which will then be automatically cut off on replies.

Put a so called "signature delimiter" at the (or near the) end or your message. This can be done in the template (I guess it will be the account templates) so you haven't to enter it every time manually. The signature delimiter is a line of '' all by itself on one line, nothing in front, nothing behind. Simply type '--' than hit space bar and . You will not see the additional space, and you'll certainly not be able to "detect" it by pressing when the cursor is in that line. The only way to "see" it is putting the cursor in the next line at the very beginning and pressing (don't forget to after this test, so the _important_ lin break is there again).

Thanks. ~~~ The issue is probably that your signature doesn't have a cut line. This is something that many mail clients, including TB, use to determine where the signature starts. Everything below the cut line is considered part of the sig and is greyed out. A cut line consists of two dashes (minus signs) followed by a space. The space character is essential.

Re: Filter (Regular Expression) Me and "Only" ME
I finally got this filter to work, if anyone else is interested in it, here is how to do it: I would like to thank Mr.Peter Palmreuther of the Bat TECH List! for figuring this out for me! Here is what he wrote; Give this a try: (.+@.+[,;].*[EMAIL PROTECTED])|([EMAIL PROTECTED]*[,;].+@.+) Location: Recipient Presence: Yes Regular Expression: Yes Untested, but could work. Your expression missed the fact your address could be in angel brackets and there don't need to be a space between comma and your address. Additionally a semicolon could be used as delimiter. The expression above checks for a "seems to be an e-mail-address" either before or behind your own address, delimited by a comma or semicolon. Quite far from being perfect, but might help as a first step. -- Best Regards, ~John - - - ~John wrote - - - > I have been getting allot of Spam here lately that is addressed to me > along with several random or generated e-mail addresses. > So my question is, how do I create a filter that will "trash" any > e-mail to me [in either the To: or CC:] that has my address > ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) listed with *any* other e-mail address. > This is tricky, because the filter has to catch the e-mail whether or > not my e-mail address is listed first,last, or in the middle. > So In other words I want the filter to allow mail to my inbox that is > addressed to me and *only* me.

Is there anything that I > should be looking at to check that it's working OK? ~~~ Just a thought, did you reboot after installing TB as your default simple MAPI handler? You can check whether MAPI is configured in Word by issuing the following command in the Immediate window: MsgBox "MAPI is " & IIf(Application.MAPIAvailable, "available", "not available") (all the above command should be on one line) Because you're working with Excel macros, I assume you know how to access the Immediate window in Word. However, if you don't, here's how: 1. Start Word 2. Press Alt+F11 3. If the Immediate window isn't visible, press Ctrl+G 4. type the MsgBox command above. You should see a message box that tells you whether MAPI is available. Another thought -- AIUI, Windows 2000 and XP are "self-healing" and can restore "essential" system files when overwritten. Thus, Windows could (unhelpfully) retore the Outlook version of MAPI. Try running OL after you've set TB as the handler for simple MAPI. If OL starts without complaining, its MAPI library is still installed, in which case, someone else can hopefully enlighten us on preventing Windows restoring that DLL after TB replaces it.

Howdy ~John, There is a rule called "Known" which can be used to sort incoming mail from *known* addresses into a specific folder. The definition of "known" addresses depends upon which of your configured address books and groups are selected. So, you could file all known users into a subfolder of the Inbox called "known". There is an option to continue with other rules, in case you want to perform other filtering actions on known users. If you leave that option unset, then the following rules will only be applied to unknown addresses. You can also setup an Outgoing Mail rule, which I call "Capture Recipient Addresses", which can add recipient addresses to your address book. Thus, people with whom you correspond automatically become "known". Hope this helps. -- Best regards, Alan K.
