Re: 5.0.9.7 (Priority List)
Hi Guys, As I said before I'm new here but I watched the list for last two days and I have a feeling that there is rather a battle ground ... unfortunately one side only (haven't seen any feedback messages from The Bat! team). Frustrated user - I can understand them/us. I'm frustrated about some issues as well and about the fact that I need to do part of filtering manually. I might be mistaken but that all fight is rather not helping anyone. Maybe a solution would be to prepare and discuss with the programmers a priority list of bugs to be fixed and stick to it. Some features are not important to some users but they might be important to other users. In ex: IMAP bugs are not important for me at all but I understand its importance for some people (what I saw they are rather minor problems any way). I'm sorry to write that in my opinion personal opinion Smileys shall rather not be a priority and is minor matter for The Bat! users. Major matters for all of us are rather problems connected with the reason we spend money to buy Your product :) 1. Superior Filtering (that needs some adjustments at the moment), I have another problem connected with filtering but not going to report it yet - might be because I skipped something (newbee as I wrote before :) ). 2. Virtual Folders matter, 3. IMAP matter, x.

Did you pay for that car or did you trade in the earlier model you bought for the next model without paying anything at all? If you have paid in order to be able to use the new model, or if you have bought the new model without having an older model: did you take a test drive? If the answer to that question is yes, was the problem known to you when you decided to buy? If the answer is no, were you forced to buy/upgrade? If yes, check with the one who made you do it. If no, take responsibility for that decision.

They are usually pretty fair about the order of bug fixing. Show stoppers have top priority. Sometimes it seems that a low priority bug has been given unfair promotion and an early fix. As a developer myself, I can understand that it makes no sense to be fixing a major bug in a module and not fixing a minor one in the same module while it's out on the bench. Sometimes a bug will take too long to fix and the attempt will delay a release that contains many other important fixes and feature updates. While frustrating for those affected by such a bug, I can understand why these things happen. One argument is that software with known bugs is never releasable. I even once held that view myself. As software and its sphere of use and influence ever expands, so this ideal goal slips ever further into the distance.

It's not about bugs, known or unknown, it's about real annoyances and problems, experienced by people who have to pay mony for it. In short, they let people pay for software that has trouble with basic functions, like filtering and virtual folders. Moreover, it did take less than a day after release to notice those problems.

Re: TBMapi Error
Hi TBBETA After sending a doc file from Office Word 2010 via send option with TheBat! and closing Word I got an error window: Did you install the new TBmapi.dll? Just in case you didn't here are the original instructions Please download http://www.ritlabs.com/download/files3/the_bat/a-5/tbmapi.rar and replace old tbmapi.dll files to the new file from the archive. The old DLL can be in C:\Program Files\The Bat!\TBMapi.dll and maybe in the Windows directory. Make sure that the tbmapi.dll have digital singature dated 25 April 2011 and Verisign's timestamp 15:34:34. -- Rick If you can dream it, you can do it. - Walt Disney v5.0.9.7 (BETA) on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 3 Current beta is 5.0.9.7 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Moreover, it did take AdG less than a day after release to notice those problems. The keyword here is basic functions. I need my email both for work and study, and I have not dared to up(down?)grade to v5 yet. V5 is not ready for release yet, IMHO. Yes, they've built it from scratch (if I understand correctly) meaning it's a completely new software with the same look-and feel as the previous one. A lot of work, I can imagine. However, as a new software, it is bound to have bugs in modules that worked flawlessly in earlier versions (actually, versions of the previous software). It is a big step for Ritlabs to take, rewriting the software (but not cross-platform, which I think is a missed opportunity), but the new software should be at least on par with the old one (plus the working IMAP support as promised for v2) before a first release. That's only my opinion, and Ritlabs will make their own decision. I will wait for the filters and virtual folders to work correctly, and the reports of AVs to stop, before I'll give v5 a try. I need this to work correctly and reliably before I will even consider looking into tooltips (that apparently can't be turned off reliably) or 2D barcode gadgets. -- Cheers, Thomas. http://thomas.fernandez.hat-gar-keine-homepage.de/ Message reply created with The Bat! 4.2.44 under Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 3 Current beta is 5.0.9.7 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
