Hello Greg, Sunday, December 8, 2013, 7:51:48 PM, among other things, you wrote: GS> 3) Has anybody upgraded to the 64 bit version of TB without problems? In my computer it is unuseable. It will not send or receive messages. There is still a lot to be done. The 32 bit version is useable but at this stage gives little or no advantage over version 5.8.10. I give next a copy of what Maxim said when alpha testing started: What's new in this ALPHA (English): 1. Support of IDN (Internationalized Domain Names) in email addresses. 2. The Bat! version 6, unlike previous versions, is a fully-Unicode application. This gives advantages to the users that work with multiple languages simultaneously. While previous versions worked mostly well with multiple languages in file names, subject lines, etc., there were places that a language different that Windows-default language “for non-Unicode programs” might not work well in The Bat!. 3. There will be 64-bit version of thebat.exe also available alongside 32-bit version. 4. There is a new sorting office option – extract files by masks. -- Best regards, Roger :flag-SouthAfrica: The Bat! v5.8.10 POP3, on Windows 7, version 6 1, build 7601 and Service Pack 1 Current version is 5.2.2 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
