Re: MyGate Bat! Content Type Header
Hello, John! JP What exactly is a content type header? This is a feature for non-English newsgroups. It was made for Russian fido7, where content-type header is not present in messages. MyGate checks if message already has content-type set, and if not -- then inserts it with default value, so Bat can display message with correct encoding. If you don't need it (you probably don't if you ask what's that ;), just leave it empty. JP Incidentally, the screenshot on MyGate web site is for V.2.5, but only JP 2.4 seems to be available for download at this time? 2.5 release will be ready in few days. I'll announce it here. ps: I've seen the discussion here about replacing mid suffix and promise to do something by v2.6.

Good evening list, I'm having problems to get my account macro working. I have several accounts and they use the account macro without problems. I recently set up another account and this one refuses to work with the macro. Now, all other account have only one name but this one has two names seperated by a space. Could this by the reason why? %ACCOUNT= -- Best regards, Luc Powered by The Bat! version 1.63 Beta/7 with Windows 2000 (build 2195), version 5.0 Service Pack 4 and using the best browser: Opera.

Templates
Hello tbudl list, Here are my newby questions on templates: 1. Is it possible to have my signature block composed using a template, so that the location information I have put in my current signature is derived from my Vcard? 2. Is the best way to get the hello text correct to create addressbook entries for the specific users? What is the best way to work this for email list subscriptions? Just purchased the bat, that only took me three years of off and on use ! -- Best regards, Andrew Hodgson, Bromyard, Herefordshire, UK. mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature Current version is 2.00 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
tb2: max number of messages not purging
Hello. I have a few folders set to keep a max number of messages stored, but one (and only one, it seems) folder stores more messages than the set limit. Using the menu command purge+compress, TB reports nothing to do. Going to the Maintenance Center and only selecting the folder for Purge old/exceeding messages, TB reports that there is nothing to do as well. The other folders seem ok...just this one. I've recreated folder, check the integrity; any suggestions on how to debug this? WL Current version is 2.00 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Re: Selective download filters
Michael Thompson wrote: Is the string this is a string the same as This Is a String as far as the filter is concerned? Not sure about Selective download (see my troubles below), but in general, any kind of filtering is usually case-sensitive - especially if enclosed in quotes. (and regex is case-sensitive) I can't get Selective download to work. I would greatly appreciate anyone's help on this. I'm starting to wonder if a 'regular' filter that deleted items off the server would be a better option for me. I have a list of e-mail addresses and domains that I'd like to Kill (never download, delete from the server). In the Selective Download folder of Sorting Office, I created a filter rule called SpamKill. I have tried entering the list of addresses in the signal strings box, as well as using a text file and checking 'load signal strings from a file' - in both cases, each address/domain was listed on a new line, and the Advanced tab options were: Action: Kill and Detection method: Any strings match. But I can't get this to work. According the help system, Selective download signal strings do not allow the special syntax used by other types of filters. How are people getting Selective Download to work? Does each string need to be in quotes or something? Should the signal strings be comma-delimited? I feel like I'm missing something terribly obvious. -- Ken Green TheBat! v1.62r, Win2000 SP4 Current version is 2.00 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Is the best way to get the hello text correct to create addressbook entries for the specific users? What is the best way to work this for email list subscriptions? I use AB templates. In the AB templates, however, I have quicktemplates, so that for example all AB templates for mailing lists add the sig by way of %QInclude=mlsig. If I want to change my sig, I need to do that only in the QT called mlsig. Just purchased the bat, that only took me three years of off and on use !
