Hello, everyone!
Has anyone who receives TBUDL in digest format ever had any problems with truncated (i.e., incomplete) digests?
As you can tell, I am trying to catch up on my reading of TBUDL, which I receive in digest format, and I have much "catching up" to do! :-)
The entire content of Volume 192, Issue 17 (7 November 2004) is as follows (for me):
Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary="===============0948124342=="
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Description: TBUDL Digest, Vol 192, Issue 17 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit MIME-Version: 1.0
None of the usual text that ends each digest is present. As I say, the text in above is the *entire* digest that I received.
If no one else receiving TBUDL in digest format has ever had this problem, then I will assume that the problem is with Hotmail.com.
I should be subscribing to TBUDL using The Bat! anyway, but my evaluation period has expired and RITLabs was kind enough to extent the evaluation period for ten more days. (I just had to let The Bat! automatically send a request to RITLabs, although there is no such message in my sent items folder.) RITLabs may offer no support to its users, but the company wants to give you every chance to buy its software, apparently. ;-) I mean no disrespect to RITLabs, but I see a certain irony with this type of discrepancy (extended evaluations versus lack of support).
I have got to reinstall Windows XP Professional and do so soon, because I know that the operation system is corrupted (and a hot fix that Microsoft sent me to solve the original problem, which was very slow shutdowns, started causing "real" problems besides slow shutdowns).
Because of the status of my OS, I have hesitated to let The Bat! download too many messages, in case I have any problems restoring from the backup of TB. (Of course, I am defeating the purpose of the evaluation period, and I am also preventing myself from finding out if Norton AntiVirus is going to start causing problems with The Bat! after I have a substantial number of e-mail messages and attachments. I may end up registering The Bat!, only to have NAV wreck it.)
I apologize for rambling. I just wanted to know of corrupted TBUDL digests were common. This one is the first truncated digest that I have received.
Thank you very much, in advance!
Cordially,
