Re: TheBat or Pocomail
Vishal Nakra wrote: Poco's interface is beautiful. Outright winner in the usability shootouts in my opinion. Its more powerful features are often a match for TB's, and are more easily used. I downloaded PocoMail this evening and have been playing around with it. I agree wholeheartedly on your comments above. The usability improvements that Poco offers are significant. There are some things that I found right away to just make more sense. I had always thought that the visual aspects of a mail client were unimportant. And back when I last looked at other clients, many reviews said Eudora had the nicest interface - and I hated it. But Poco does look nice. And it's skinnable - which seems silly to me, but I have thought that about skins before. And with some of the skinnable apps I have, I end up finding a few skins that are simple, clean and toned down and I find it's a nice touch. The HTML sanitizing features are another part that is impressive from a security standpoint. TB's HTML capability is better left unspoken about, since the many threads on this list will have shown you how far it has to go yet. Poco's is polished, though I didn't use it much either. I'm a big advocate of NOT using HTML, so for me, this really isn't a negative for TB. I just want an e-mail client that allows me to turn it all off, and for the rare occasions that I need to view an HTML message - and easy method for doing so (both Poco and TB have this). I played with Poco a few months ago, but resisted changing because I hadn't fully experimented with TB's very powerful macros and templates. I don't know if there is ever a good time to go through the painful process of switching. I want to give Poco a fair shot and spend some time with it, but learning a new program is time-consuming. My initial impression, though, is that there are some features that I consider important that Poco has - and are easy to use/set-up. I didn't want to give up on TB without doing that. TB's templates are better, but then Poco has its own scripting language that could do wonders for you if you know how to use it well. I didn't even want to consider another e-mail client that did not allow at least some basic address book templates. I didn't think Poco had them, but they're there. I have not delved into the scripting capabilities of Poco yet. TB has other advantages. Speed, for one. You'll quickly notice that Poco is pretty slow at downloading lots of mail. This won't be a problem if you don't receive a lot, but if you plan on subscribing to heavy-traffic mailing lists, be prepared to wait a lot. I used version 3, though, and the mailing lists had posts after that on how the speed was improved significantly in the later betas. My speed comment may be out of date now. Poco also tended to crash somewhat more than TB, and the user forums reveal other bugs that people weren't happy about. TB is definitely fast. That's been one of its biggest assets for years. I can't tell yet how much slower Poco is, but it doesn't seem to be a problem. It's definitely not as fast as The Bat, though. I'm not sure if that is such a problem if I'm checking mail regularly throughout the day (unless its REALLY slow) Can't say anything about crashing. TB has been pretty stable for me for a long time. Since there's only one developer for Poco, that's understandable. (Hats off to the guy for the singlehanded effort he's pulled off). Honestly, I think The Bat would be dead in the water were it not for this list. That's my opinion and could very well be completely wrong. But I find the community that is involved with a product is often just as (or more) important that the developer(s). People here have been very helpful and friendly. I don't know how the Poco forums are, but they are active. The problem, though, is that some issues that I may deem critical - if they aren't important to the list, they might just go unnoticed. I know that's very self-serving, but at the end of the day, I purchased The Bat for me to use. There have been a few issues with TB that I just can't comprehend. They go beyond idiosyncrasies. I don't like several things about TB - the HTML rendering, attachment handing and user interface primarily. But ultimately, I stuck with it because it was just plain too much bother to switch, with all the address book and other incompatibilities. It's interesting to see what people will go through to keep from changing. I'm convinced that a few of the expert users here would probably drop The Bat were it not for the hassle of switching, and their know-how and willingness to concoct elaborate work-arounds to problems the software itself should address. I think for me, the timing is right. I was irritated about The Bat's handling of the Memo field (and not being able to change the Subject line), and then experienced some weird, unexplainable behavior with attachments.

Does The Bat! provide features accessible by keyboard alone that PocoMail provides in Menus? After all, The Bat has mouse/menu interaction as well. A typical consumer/customer could be confused by the options in TB, but they simply do not have to worry about the keyboard shortcuts. The big thing about Poco, to me, a developer, and possibly others, is... What the is this interface? That's not Windows. If I remember right, it was also lacking in many other areas important to *me*. As such, I think Becky is the closest rival to The Bat. PocoMail is an orange to The Bat's apple.

Manual filter with shortcut key
Hi, Not sure if this is possible...I've been unable to find reference to it in the archives. I would like to have a shortcut key that activates a manual filter. The filter is a simple if shortcut key is hit, move to folder 'Important'. How would I do this? -- Regards, Matt Current version is 2.02.3 CE | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
