This was intentionally, as meanwhile software do not need this anymore for there being other ways of mail storing that avoid this. Nevertheless there're still some older systems, and upgrading is a very money and time expensive thing. TF Is it so expensive, though? In fact it is. You can't take normal PC hardware and build up your server. OK, surely, you can. But that's not what GMX needs for a reliable mail server. You'll need some HA [1] components, build up with redundancies and a lot of server optimized other components. E.g. an Intel Xeon processor instead of your normal P-III as it offers some features that are important for a fast service (like bigger L1-Cache, faster connected to the CPU itself, etc ...). A hardware RAID, reliable and stable fast NIC's, a lot of RAM, etc... This all in pure hardware does cost more than about 5000-1000 US$. Add the software side, and don't calculate only initial cost for buying, but also installation time, administration, configuration to fit in the existing model and you're at 20-30k US$ for a _real_ server. TF GMX does add the character into mails received via my pro-account. :-( That's a reason to write to them. It may be critical for you to verify signatures and they make this quite impossible with this insert. So _you_ as a aping customer are in a situation to give them hard facts why this have to be changed. What shall a non-paying user tell them? I don't like it? It destroys PGP-signatures and they are important to me? For critical issues I don't rely on a cost-free service, so this is not an argument. But if _you_ ask them to fulfill the service they prove, and that includes 'not alteration of e-mails but receiving and delivering to you as they came in' you can have success (If they care about not loosing a paying customer *g*) :-))) [1] High Availability -- Regards Peter Palmreuthermailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (The Bat! v1.54 Beta/14 on Windows NT 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 1) Humans: Bet you can't eat just one. -- Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Vers: 1.53d FAQ: http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hello Thomas! On 10 Dec 2001 at 05:12:17 you wrote: Note the past tense. Could have been something to do with Peter not as conversant in English than you? Phew, nice construction, ain't it. Seriously, there are still people out there using software needing this. So, the past tense doesn't really come into the equation. It is more a question of priorities in supporting it or not, a decision a company like GMX might not be making, as the y may nit realize there is something to decide. Is it so expensive, though? Regardless of how great the actual costs are: Yes. Everything that costs something is in company terms expensive - as long as there is a cheaper alternative. The old mail servers of GMX are still good and running, so it would be expensive to change them. Related to that are two other things, the manpower needed and the inconveniences for GMX customers. Remember 12 months ago when the had a major overhaul of there hardware structure. Lots of people (incl. me) had problems connecting and getting mail for some weeks. During this period many customers became ex-customers recommending *not* to use GMX. One of my brothers was one of them. GMX does add the character into mails received via my pro-account. :-( Hey, you are a paying customer ... But I concur with Peter's statement - - and find it really annoying that he is in the wrong - that PRO accounts should use the newer servers. Yhey do change the contents of my mail. IMHO it is not acceptable in any case (free or not). You are right if there wasn't a technical reason for it. Sadly there was (and may still be). So historically some severs still alter the message, which I too find wrong. Much more I don't like the way GMX deals with customer'S requests not just on this topic.

Eudora conversion glitch
Hi all, I'm planning to convert after years using Eudora. I'm fed up with its regular attempts to call home and report what its been doing. I have hit a bit of a problem with converting my mail boxes though. The conversion wizard doesn't want to play at all. Leaving me with just the convert from UNIX option. This does work except for one problem: - The creation dates of my outgoing messages gets changed. In the Folder view it becomes the date of conversion and in the message headers it becomes 30th December 1899.

You could take a look at ACM your message headers to see how many servers are involved in getting ACM your gmx based messages to you. No. That's plainly wrong. The only one altering a message in this manner is the last server storing the message. As long as this message is not stored in a MBOX format file it is not altered this way. This insert is only done by a server that stores the message in a MBOX file for being able to retrieved via POP3 or IMAP. This insert is done for the POP-toaster (or IMAP-Server) to be able to recognize this 'From' starting line is _not_ the beginning of a new message. In MBOX files a new message is recognized by a line starting 'From ', therefore a 'From ' line within the message is escaped with this annoying ''. While the mail is transported via SMTP it is not necessary to escape this line as SMTP describes the end of a message as 'Newline.Newline' and therefore only lines containing only a singel dot, but belonging to message body are _temporarily_ escaped, but you won't recognize this as this is undone when arriving the last SMTP. The only way how GMX would not be the culprit were if they get the mail via UUCP from a host where the mail already was stored in a MBOX file. -- Regards Peter Palmreuthermailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (The Bat! v1.54 Beta/15 on Windows NT 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 2) C: A real language for real programmers. -- Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Vers: 1.53d FAQ: http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com

Crazy Idea? XP Mail Notification...
Hi TBUDL, I have a (possibly) daft idea I'd like some advice/help on if possible or at the very least a response that what I'm thinking of just isn't possible in TB!. If one runs Win XP and uses the Welcome Screen as the Logon mechanism (rather than the NT/2000 classic ctrl-alt-del logon box) then it's possible to have extra information listed against each user's account icon - principally the number of programs currently running under each ID and the number of unread email messages in their MSN/Hotmail accounts - should they have one. This is possible because (according to Microsoft's info) both Outlook/Express and Messenger are capable or checking that mail and then updating the registry key stored at... HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/UnreadMail I was wondering if there was a way to get TB! to report the number of new mail messages (ie: unread messages) to (say) a shell/batch script of some kind that could then update the registry key indicated. I don't use hotmail but I have several accounts, from all of which the mail gets congregated into one set of folders under TB! This would mean that if I could get a single notification out of TB! I could probably do something with the XP registry. I've looked into the helpfiles under the command line options but not found anything really meaningful. Is there any obscure feature that might help me hidden away somewhere? As usual, any and all help would be appreciated.

To see what I mean, create a new message and save it as a draft.

Printing all on the To list
Hi, I've received a message with more than 50 names on the 'To' list, but TB only prints the first recipient on the list. My print template is set to To: %ToName %ToAddr, how can I print all the names addresses on the list? Thanks.

Re: Crazy Idea? XP Mail Notification...
Hello Mark, An archeological dig discovered that on Tuesday, December 11, 2001 at 00:01 GMT +, Mark R Harding [MRH] typed the following: MRH HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/UnreadMail MRH I was wondering if there was a way to get TB! to report the number of MRH new mail messages (ie: unread messages) to (say) a shell/batch script MRH of some kind that could then update the registry key indicated. [...] MRH I've looked into the helpfiles under the command line options but not MRH found anything really meaningful. Is there any obscure feature that MRH might help me hidden away somewhere? As far as I know, there is no such feature that you could use directly. However, what you could do is to create a script that would export only unread messages from each of your folders. The script would then have to count the resulting messages and could report the number of unread messages. I can help you with the VBScript version of this, but we should move discussions about code to the TBTECH list. -- Thanks for writing, Januk Aggarwal Using The Bat! 1.54 Beta/15 under Windows 98 4.10 Build 67766446 A Is it OK to use the AM radio after noon? -- Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Vers: 1.53d FAQ: http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com

Although RIT Labs claims that the Mail Ticker is unique, Novell's Groupwise has a utility that is virtually identical, at least in the early incarnations of the Mail Ticker, which predates The Bat. If The Bat flew high enough to register on Novell's radar screen, they might object. :) -- PFord The Bat! 1.53d (reg) Windows 98 4.10 Build -- Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Vers: 1.53d FAQ: http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com
