Re: Synchronizing between notebook and desktop

Mainly because of the problems keeping filters up to date on both installations. The result can be that messages get into different folders on both machines, and this leads to duplicates. The other reason is a very practical one - laptops are relatively easy to loose or damage, so I would rather hold messages on the server for a few days so I can be sure that I get them on my desktop PC than depend on being able to synchronize from the Laptop. The other thing to remember with Synchronisation is that it is a one-way process - it makes the Installation A the same as Installation B, by moving messages that are not on A but are on B onto A. This means that to do a full synchronisation (matching both installations) you have to run it twice, making different machines the target and destination each time, if you see what I mean!

Problem with Replying
Hi, I'm having a problem with replying to messages in The Bat! The problem is that The Bat! will only include some of the original message in the reply - not all of the text.

I want The Bat! to include all the text of the message I'm replying to, no matter how long it is. You don't say how you are replying, or what text is missing, but two things spring to mind: - TB! does not quote sigs in replies, so everything below the sig delimiter will be cut (-- ) - f4 only quotes the highlighted text. One way to get round the chopping of the sig is to use the %text macro in your reply template. This appears to quote the whole of the original text, including the text below the sig delimiter. If you changes the template you use for the list, don't forget you will need to manually trim your reply to get rid of the sig text, or use f4 on the text you want to reply to.

Mercury32 (http://www.pmail.com) is free and extremely flexible. I has modules to do just about anything you would want. However, I've never tried it under XP and don't know what the author claims, but I would be very surprised if it didn't work. There is an active mailing list/support group at [EMAIL PROTECTED] I don't know your particular situation, of course, but allow me to point out a couple of things. First, running your own SMTP for outbound mail is becoming increasingly difficult because many of the servers you will connect with are using blacklists which refuse mail from any IP which is in a dynamically assigned block. They are trying to avoid spam sent out by servers operated by spammers. So if you are on a dialup connection, or if you have broadband with an IP assigned via DHCP, you may have problems with some outbound mail. Second, and again on the subject of SMTP, to receive mail you must be online full time, or inbound mail will bounce. There are, however, services which will hold/forward mail if your system is down. Also, you must have an open port to allow inbound access to your SMTP server, while without the server your system can be virtually invisible on the internet. I ran my own server(s) for quite a few years, but have given it up given the current environment. Just a few thoughts.

INBOX unreadable
Hello there. Although I am a very happy user of The Bat! it annoys me that sometimes the program, without me doing anything, somehow messes up with my mail folder. not very often a few times a year. It did so yesterday also. My mail folder is divided into many sections with many of the received mails being put into different sub-folders. But there is still a lot just staying in the root of the INBOX folder. The problems is that now I can't read the messages in the root of the INBOX folder. That is.. all the messages being directed to different sub-dirs are perfectly readable but the messages in the INBOX root doesn't show up anymore. Neither the old ones nor newly received ones. If I am in the INBOX root window when receiving them I can read the new ones, but as soon as go to another window they disappear. Also The Bat crashes when I try to close it. I have made a reinstall of my system (WinXP with and without SP1) but the problems didn't disappear. Substituting the configuration files from an older backup didn't solve the problem. Only taking the old messages.tbb and messges.tbi solved the problem, but now I miss some of the files in the newer message files. So my conclusion to this is that some mail inside the broken message files, makes The Bat go crazy. Does anybody know how to solve this or how to repair the broken messges files I ones had a similar problem with a mail being received which stopped the program from download further messages, and this was solved by deleting the bad mail from the server with the dispatch mail on server feature. I wonder if there is some similar feature with this problem. Thanks in advance Peter Olsenm Current version is 1.62r | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
