Re: Change reply-to for a folder

Hail sd

On 12 April 2001 at 17:56:29 -0500 (which was 23:56 where I live) sd ha
scritto made the following points

 I have a folder, into which all my mail from a mailing list goes to.
 When I reply to a message, instead of getting the email address of the
 list, I get the email address of the person who sent the message.

 Can I do something to change, for this one folder, the address that
 ALL replies go to by default?

I have a list like this as well. My solution is to put the following in a
folder level template for that list.

%to="" %to="%OFROMNAME on [group name] %OTOADDR"

And then I have a group set up for lists in my address book with it's own
template and use this for the replays. I have not run in to trouble (yet).

But folder level templates is really one of these things I like about
The Bat. For instance I participate in a norwegian list and want my
greetings and my signature there to be different from this list. I
find it very convenient to just highlight the folder and start a new
message.

MDP N.B. Don't do this for all the lists you belong to. Most don't need it
MDP and work better with an Address Book reply template tied to the list's
MDP reply address. This solution is really only intended to compensate for

You just taught me about Address Book templates. I had not

Yes, you do sacrifice convenience for safety. I myself had to struggle
with that concept for quite some time, but eventually I became used to the
idea of using AB Templates. There are only 2 Mailing Lists I belong to
that force me to use Folder Level Templates because of the "Reply-To:"
header issue.

Deleting messages

2001-04-13 Thread net5zero


1.  Is there a way to delete messages without having them going to the
Trash folder (then you have to purge and compress the trash folder)?

2.  I have a mailing list that is cumulating over 4,000 messages.  I
decided to delete them since I don't have time to read them.  It took
over 10 minutes on my slow p133.  What is worse, during the deletion,
TheBat hogs my entire cpu -- i.e. I could NOT do anything else on the
computer.  Is that the way TheBat works?  Is there an option in TheBat
or Windows (Win95) that I can turn on to make that process a
background process ??

Now, the same thing might happen when I exit TheBat since I have set
it to "empty trash on exit".

Thanks in advance
JM

I just exported that particular message and had a closer look at

for the attachment anywhere. That reminds me of a thread some
time ago about the differences in the appearance of a html

The second problem is that there is no plain text part, only the

I think that a message with content type text/html contains
*only* a html part and that's the reason why TB! is unable to
delete that part. Deleting the only content would create an empty
message. So IMHO it is the right thing not to let the user delete
that part.

TB generates a text part when you view the message with HTML autview
disabled.

It was agreed quite some time ago that it should be possible to delete
the HTML attachments, so that TB keeps only the text part it has
generated. I was of the opinion that this was confirmed quite a number
of versions ago.

I will be on the lookout (!) for text/html messages, unless  anybody

Not in the 1.52 beta series in version after beta 1. I made a clear
bug report about why this was happening and it got fixed. TB was
enumerating the html/text file types and picking the *last* listed
extension instead of the *first* in the list. As a result any incoming
html attachments get given an fairly inappropriate extension.

Of course. How can you delete the only part of a message? As for TB
keeping the self generated text approximation of such a message - why
should TB betray one of its base fundamentals of not interfering with
incoming email?

If you (or a user) are configuring multiple access points for mail

This will allow mail to be read from multiple locations without
problem.

MK With this 3 problem described under this subject, TB! is useless

I disagree. IMHO TB goes further in this respect than most (if not

You have made a basic error here.

TB stores its configuration in HKCU. If you log in as a completely
different user at the *Windows* level, then you are dealing with a
whole new installation of TB.

TB is designed to be user specific. *Either* use a single windows
login and multiple TB users *Or* use multiple Windows logins *and*
multiple TB installations. You can probably use a single executable
set but will need different mailbase root folders for each
user/account.

Killing dupes

2001-04-13 Thread Pete P

Hello TBUDL!

A while back I did something that I shouldn't have done - I killed
dupes in a certain folder I have set up for a mailing list. I didn't
even stop to hesitate when the program said it was going to kill 60(!)
duplicates... I just clicked OK...  :-(

How stupid of me.

What happened was that I lost sixty messages that were NOT duplicates,
all from same person. From his later messages I have discovered that
all his messages have the same message-ID!! It seems that either his
computer or some program(s) can't manage the y2k so he has set the
date permanently to January 1st, 1980. OK, that's fine but I wouldn't
even have dreamed that that should make the message-IDs exactly the
same!!

Actually, I don't have any question... I just wanted to share this...

It would have been nice if TB! had told me *what* were the
messages it was about to kill... showing the basic "from" and
"subject" info for instance. Now it seems to me that the message-ID
isn't a very reliable way to determine which messages are
duplicates... but then again, what is?

Your email address immediately suggests to me that it's some quirk of
your ISP; when I was (briefly) a member of cwcom.net in 1999 all sorts
of strange things happened with email delivery (and many other
facilities).

Suggestion:

(i) Set up a secondary (completely different) email package to access
your mailbox, ensuring _that email is left on the server_ by it;

(ii) Before using The Bat! to download email off the server, check
mail (without downloading it) using the other package.

Are the problems visible with the secondary email package?

Re: TB temp files mystery -- an experiment

On Fri, 13 Apr 2001 at 10:29:14 +0800 Thomas wrote:

 This is indeed methodical,

Not really, because I didn't set out to try all functions of TB. I
just did what I usually do. I also said it's not scientific because
I knew it's not real-time monitoring, but infrequent snapshots (1
min. interval may be frequent enough for human activities, but not
for computers).

 and must have created a rather large log file which you had to
 read through after those over two hours. ;-)

Not really, either. TB's temp file follows a certain naming rule
(BAT*.tmp), which is easy to search in an editor.

I stopped the experiment around 7:30 this morning, about 24 hours
after it began. The log is about 2.4 MB, 66 thousand lines, and it
logged a total of 7 BAT temp files. All of them have been deleted
automatically by TB, even though I haven't closed it since
yesterday.

 When you download new mail, I understand these messages will be
 downloaded to the temp dir first, then "imported" (some, including
 myself, have already seen the cycle "importing messages" from TB,
 and the occasional hang at that point), and if the import action
 is successful, the files will be deleted from temp.

I'm not sure exactly how this works. I watched closely at the temp
dir when downloading mail, but even when the number of messages to
download is large, I don't always see temp files created. It's
possible they're deleted too soon for my explorer to refresh its
display. I'll get a real-time monitoring tool to try again.

 This is what you have missed. If there is any doubt about whether
 the "import" was successful, TB will not delete the files in the
 temp dir, giving you a chance to find out whether the error might
 have to do with them.

This seems plausible. Yet then it begs two questions:

1. why are there many leftovers (undeleted temp files) for so many
users? My experience (very rarely has TB left anything in my temp
dir) should be the norm, but it clearly is not given the testimonies
by others on the other thread. It's hard to imagine they're
experiencing so many failed imports, since it's not related to the
outside connection (the message has been downloaded and saved as a
temp file on your HD, but somehow TB fails to import it into TB).

2. why are there  so many 0-byte temp files (for many others, not
me)? As I speculated earlier, it could be due to incomplete
deletion, but why?

Well, since it doesn't affect me, I'm not sure why I'm pursuing
this. Kind of foolish, ain't I? :-)

 It would have been nice if TB! had told me *what* were the
 messages it was about to kill... showing the basic "from" and

 duplicates... but then again, what is?

In my experience there is not much to do about any kinds of mistakes.
You see, any way to ease work (= automating it) gives way to new
failure. That's why I usually go through my folders by hand every few
weeks - I know, not really feasible if you have a very big message
base. But I don't keep most of the messages I get.

So, I agree, it would be a nice option, but will surely not cure this
kind of "stupidity"*, to borrow your word . ;-)

 2.  I have a mailing list that is cumulating over 4,000 messages.
 I decided to delete them since I don't have time to read them.  It

If you're deleting all messages in a folder, several ways would
generate faster result:

1. select the folder in the account tree pane, and hit DEL. TB would
prompt you to either "delete to trash", "wipe", or "leave message
base intact". The first option would take a little longer, but still
significantly shorter than what you did. The last two options are
instant.

2. use the "Empty" command from the Folder menu. It still move files
to the recycle bin, but is still much faster. On my 200MHz machine,
deleting all messages in folder with 5300+ messages took me 1:20,
while emptying it took 50 sec.

Mark and delete is the slowest, because not only it has to move
messages to the trash folder, but also it works on one message at a
time.

 I have been compressing, which seems to purge.  Today I tried purging,
 which seems to compress.  They appear to be redundant processes.

No, as Karin put it, purge and compress are two different things.
It's just in TB you can't do Purging without compression. The "Purge
all folders" command under the Folder menu does do compression,
which should be renamed to "Purge AND COMPRESS all folders". The one
for a single folder ("Purge and Compress") is clear.

The Compress and Compress All Folders commands, OTOH, don't purge.

A look around suggests that:

(i) completely blank emails are most likely an offshoot of faulty
spamming software (!)

(ii) completely blank emails _with an attachment_ are produced by a
number of virus generators (I had one a couple of weeks ago where
there were no headers whatsoever but an attachment containing a virus;
Panda Antivirus sounded the alarm immediately it was received).

Certainly, as there is literally nothing in the emails, they can only
be harmless but annoying; the best solution is probably to work up a
The Bat! filter to silently delete them before they get to you.

(That said, I am having trouble working out what such a filter would
be when the incoming message seemingly contains nothing at all, not
even a header. Help!)

Re: Change reply-to for a folder

Hi Dierk,

Dierk Haasis wrote to Thomas and made these points:

DH I think I once described it on list not so long ago. The operative
DH word is "sensible".

The operative word *is* sensible. Every time someone says "There's no
problem" and "it's easy", someone who doesn't understand what
"sensible" means implements an unnecessary folder template and another
slip happens.

My strong warnings against the practice have a purpose. To *make*
people treat them sensibly. To simply say "use them but be sensible"
makes an understatement that can only result in problems.

And, no sooner do we start discussing the topic than a user makes a
post to two addresses bearing no relationship to this list and yet one
of those addresses is that of the list. Coincidence? Not in my book.

*I* am sure it is coincidental.

All this shows something else, something most people today seem to
forget: It could be both sides are right. In this case your position
strengthens my use of "sensible".

Contrary to my experience - jutted down in another message to another
thread today - I hope that humans are inherently what their Linnean
name suggests: Homo sapiens - sensible (wo)men.

Re[2]: Purging, was:: TB temp files mystery -- an experiment

Friday, April 13, 2001, 12:10:40 PM, you wrote:

 I have been compressing, which seems to purge.  Today I tried purging,

 No, as Karin put it, purge and compress are two different things.
 It's just in TB you can't do Purging without compression. The "Purge
 all folders" command under the Folder menu does do compression,
 which should be renamed to "Purge AND COMPRESS all folders". The one
 for a single folder ("Purge and Compress") is clear.

 The Compress and Compress All Folders commands, OTOH, don't purge.


It seems that when I compress all folders, it purges.  To test, I
compressed all folders, then deleted a message.  I compressed, and
recovered an amount of space similar to the size of the message.  When
I purged all folders, there was nothing to purge.

MIME Forwarding via template?

2001-04-13 Thread Elden Fenison

TBUDL,

  Under account properties where the forwarding template is set, there
  is an option for "Use MIME standard for forwarding". Is there a way
  to control this using a template macro, rather than a global account
  setting?

Sorry, I should have been more precise... what I'm actually looking
for is a way to cause an RFC-822 .msg attachment of the original
message to happen via template macro.

Re: Deleting HTML attachment (was: Uninstall Problem-Help.)

2001-04-13 Thread Douglas Hinds



Hello Thomas  others on this TB! list  following this thread,

Friday, April 13, 2001,  you asked:

T Has anybody ever been able to delete the HTML part of a message with a
T content-type text/html?

This is what I do:

I redirect the message using Crtl+F6, addressing it to the same
address it came in with. I then select the attachment and delete it.
Then I save it to the outbox, and drag it back to the folder it was
in. Lastly, I delete the original. This is one of things redirecting
is good for.

On Fri, 13 Apr 2001 at 16:40:43 -0500 Dwight A Corrin wrote:

I went back to look at the explanation Karin gave you, and found
what caused the confusion. I'm also at fault, of course, since I
endorsed what she said without thinking. I guess she was lacking
caffeine, and I simply had a bad day though it was only morning.

Now, Karin's explanation is still a good place to start:

KS When you delete a message from a folder, it is not really
KS removed: it is only taken out of the folder's index file
KS (*.tbi).

This is almost right, except the index entry isn't really "taken
out". It's marked as deleted. That's why you can "browse deleted
messages", which would be much harder to do if the index entries no
longer exist.

KS When you purge, it is really deleted.

Here, "purge" should be "compress". (In dBase/Clipper terminology,
it's "pack".)

What does "purging" do, then? It means deleting old messages
according to a set criteria. If you have experience with higher-end
newsreader, you should have no trouble with this concept. In TB, the
criteria is set on a folder-by-folder basis (try Folder |
Properties). If you set a folder to keep no a maximum of 100
messages, e.g., then when you purge it TB would delete all messages
but the newest 100.

When purging, TB delete them in its usual way--marking them as
deleted in the index file (.tbi), but not removing them physically
from the message base file (.tbb). Yet, as I said earlier, purging
in TB is always followed by compression (either on all folder or a
single one). The reverse isn't true.

Hope that is clear enough.

Search for No Sender messages

2001-04-13 Thread jlaikan

Hello TBUDL,

I am trying to search for all incoming messages with no Sender
that have accumulated over the years. I don't want to move them
using "Sorting/Filters", I only want to view them. So I did Tools/Search.

In the Message finder I left the "Search for" field blank,
in "Scope" I ticked Sender, in "Look in" I selected Current Account.

The result gave all messages instead of those with no sender.
What's wrong with my settings?

LOL! Beginners are bound to make this mistake, and you can clearly see
that nothing happened (the attachment was stripped, so we received a
few lines of non-committing text). The unfortunate sender has blushed,
and he has learned something. Several readers have learned from his
mistake, and that may be worth more than mere warnings - if these
mistakes are explained, and how to avoid them.

And, being as voyeuristic as I am, I love to read messages that were
meant to go by PM, but were inadvertedly copied to the list. It almost
always guarantees some excitement on the list. I haven't seen a good
flame on this list for months! :-

MDP Of course.

Seeing the rest of your message, I believe you mean "of course not",
as otherwise I'm unable to contradict you. ;-)

MDP  How can you delete the only part of a message?

And if the context type is multipart/alternative or multipart/mixed,
deleting part of that message is OK? Or if you have a "real"
attachment, is that not technically a part of the message?

MDP As for TB keeping the self generated text approximation of such a
MDP message - why should TB betray one of its base fundamentals of
MDP not interfering with incoming email?

It is generated from text actually in the message, thus the message
body is shown (not some "generated text", but the message minus the
HTML tags). So, part of the message is filtered, and I want to delete
only the part that is not shown. Same idea as when I have a message
that was sent as multipart/alternative, the HTML part (text plus tags)
is not shown, and I want to delete that part. In the former case it
would be betrayal, in the latter it would be fine?

Kindly clarify for me.
