Hi Folks, Similar problems here!!! I foolishly omitted to read many of the last threads on the compatibility between alpha and released versions. I have many thousands of EMails in many folders and have lost several (yet again!) when I restored from an earlier backup! However this is really my own fault as I should be paying more attention to the forum messages which are all very helpful.
More serious in my experience is the lack of "sync" features between The Bat and Voyager. Attempts to keep my Voyager memory stick and my PC's The Bat are frustrating to say the least. An automated sync feature would make the combination of The Bat & Voyager a significant contribution to the market place. Attempts to synchronise manually sometimes works but mostly results in damaged folders in the Voyager message base. This can be worked round, recovering files etc, but I don't want to spend hours repairing message bases on a released product!!! I really like The Bat & Voyager - but after running Portable Thunderbird for one whole month with no faults whatsoever I am tempted to abandon the Bat after 5 years. I have lost 56 folders in my Voyager message base during the same time period running Voyager and Portable Thunderbird in parallel. (Same message base, same Incoming Emails, same memory stick) Yes, Voyager has many many more features - but should we not have better reliability and recovery tools in the VERY BASIC features of the product (integrity of the message base) Please accept this as positive criticism - I really do wish you well developing an improved product. -- Best regards, Hamish Email:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 4.0.39.27 (ALPHA) | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
