Re: 8.5.8.2
I had an AV when a certain forum notification came into one of my e-mail accounts. I ended up reading and deleting that e-mail on my smartphone... I'll try to figure out how to make this a useful bug report. :-) Current beta is 8.5.8.2 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
TB 8.5.8.2 - same problem with Gmail IMAP accounts (serious!)
I am a Voyager user, but I installed a TB version also, to test if it has the same problem with Gmail IMAP accounts (see my previous replies to all new Voyager versions announcements here). And it does! I tried with TB 8.5.8, then with 8.5.8.2. With my Gmail IMAP accounts it's impossible not only to login, but even to shut down TB properly, I have to kill the entire TB process. I couldn't find an installer for TB 8.2.4.3. Can anyone point me to that installer? I would like to test it, and I bet that version works (it does, as far as Voyager is concerned). Something must have been broken after that and it is still. -- Luca - e-mail: p.stevens at libero.it Current beta is 8.5.8.2 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

OK, now I can explain the second one as it was marked as parked, but no error is generated saying a filter ignored a message because it was parked. But on the other hand, there is no way that message should have been marked parked as the first time that filter fires the message was just downloaded. The only filter that marks messages parked first moves them to a third folder before parking them so that one didn't fire either. Once I removed the parked flag, the filter ran just fine. -- Ira Current beta is 8.5.8.2 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Guten Tag, The Bat Beta, this mail comes to you from Lüko Willms mailto:wil...@luekowillms.de (this is true, but since this is just text, it could by anything) am Dienstag, 24. Juli 2018 um 17:42 schrieben Sie: > DMARC compliant MTA servers receiving messages with a from header that > is at odds with the domain of the reply-to are spoof or phishing > mails. This is nonsense. The operators of such MTA should check RFC 5322, the current standard for Internet mail, and correct their wrong assumptions. The standard is quite clear that the actual author (the one on the FROM field) and the SENDER of the message can be different persons with different mailbox addresses and then, of course, different domains. I have dozens of email addresses on half a dozen of more domain names, and I am free to direct replies to any other address of mine, different from me as the author, i.e. the FROM address (BTW, I have also activated SPF for four of my domains). It is completely normal for mailing lists, that the SENDER field, showing the address of the mailing list processor, contains a different address with a different domain than the FROM field, i.e the actual author of the content of the message being distributed by the mailing list. Spoofing the acutal author as being somebody different than the real author is the biggest help the spammers and criminals can hope for. The peak is the current situation of this mailing list. The ultimate horror and ultimate tool for spammers. -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen Lüko Willms mailto:wil...@luekowillms.de Current beta is 8.5.8.2 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

FIRST, the name of the SENDER is the mailing list. The FROM address is the acutal author of the message, the one who is responsible for the content of the mail. Before this treacherous change, at least the NAME of the author was preserved in the already falsified FROM field, by giving him a false mailbox address. The only proper solution is that the FROM remains unchanged from the actual AUTHOR of the message, and the SENDER shows the addres of the mailing list. -- Mit freundlichen Grüßen Lüko Willms mailto:wil...@luekowillms.de____ Current beta is 8.5.8.2 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
