Re[2]: What's new in 4.0.0.2
It looks like once you have Allowed/Blocked a URL the only option is to Block/Allow it. The Remove button doesn't seem to do anything. US Confirmed - as a workaround you can edit urlmgr.xml in the mail US directory. This is fixed and should be available for testing soon. MDP Not asking you necessarily, but generally to the list and specifically MDP to Max and Marek, will the urlmgr.xml include wildcards in blocked / MDP allowed URLs? For instance, I get a Web specials email from my fave MDP gadget supplier and would like to approve any image from the specials MDP images folder but block anything that uses the tracking script. Wildcard editing is planned and will be introduced in a developed version of current URL Manager. Other features on todo list regarding URL Manager are: o UI to set up proxy settings (at this moment feature available by manually changing urlmgr.xml proxy host= port= enabled=1/ key) o UI to clear local cache, set download options. o maybe some other tweaking options. o signed email sender trusting (for image downloading) -- Bye!

Customisation settings Import notes
Dear User I feel I have to drop a few notes about previous version of customisation/interface system and what we currently have implemented. The interface of TheBat! can be changing while it is in development stages, some of these changes we can add are a lot of new interface items, such as menu modifications, toolbar items and new buttons. This strategy of adding new parts to the interface is not compatible with previous versions of customisation, as customised objects were saved in TBUSER.DEF (a script which holds current user changes) entirely. Thus, if you modified the Main Menu of the general window of TheBat!, TBUSER.DEF had to include the whole definition of the new user modified Main Menu. And if you had a newer version of TheBat! with some new menu items in Main Menu, you would not see them until you removed your current changes to Main Menu or re-added new appeared items using Customiser on their rightful places. The new version of customisation/interface system uses a different way to store user changes to default TheBat! interface, saving only user modifications. But it has a drawback, because old modifications could NOT imported now - default objects (built in menues, toolbars etc) cannot be modified from TBUSER.DEF anymore, and importing of possible differences between old and new interface is not trivial. In future, user modifications and developer-level modifications of interface will be merging much better with the help of this new interface system. However, user-defined toolbars should be importing quite well. Currently, customisation/interface system is being improved further. Shortcut (hotkey) conflicts would be introduced again in the near future. Thank you for attention! -- Bye!
