As far as I understood the matter, forms can only be used when both
the server and the client are using TB and though TB is a superiour
client, it's not something I'd recommend as a server.
That means that most people aren't in the situation to use forms with
TB. Hence your lack of reactions.

Hi TBUDLers,

I'm using the server's outbox. Approximately 1 out of every 10-15
emails will not be sent. The following is from the account log:

 2/27/2004, 07:22:53: SEND  - sending mail messages - 1 messages in queue
!2/27/2004, 07:22:53: SEND  - Could not export message
 2/27/2004, 07:22:53: SEND  - connection finished - 0 messages sent

I can try resending several times and it will not send. My only choice
is to copy the email's contents to the clipboard, delete the email
from my outbox, and create a new email.

Is this a server problem? or a TB! problem? or both?

Filter as Junk?

Hello tbudlers,

I have one account which receives virtually nothing but spam - it's the
account I use on websites when I have to.

I just decided that an Inbox filter of 'Sender contains @' could be
used to train BayesIt with rather less effort on my part (although it
gets most of them already).  However, I cannot see anywhere to tell the
filter to 'Mark as Junk'.

Is this possible?

I've seen this when TB! has sent the entire message to my SMTP server,
but timed out waiting for a response.  Instead of reporting a timeout,
TB! reports a truncated version of the last thing it heard from the
server.

With my SMTP server, the message gets sent anyway.

I've upped my Server Timeout setting to 300 seconds (I think it was
60) and haven't seen this since.

That's an error message from the outgoing mail server. If you were to
telnet directly to port 25 of the server and enter your commands
manually (as opposed to what mail clients do for you automagically)
your last command to the server to let it know that you've completed
your data entry would be a . on it's own line. Sometimes you'll see
this error if your connection has bogged down or disconnects. The
message finally got though yes?

If you uncheck that box, then the folder should revert to 'Folder 
specific settings' since it would not have been assigned a view mode.

The folder's default should be 'the folder specific settings', IOW's, no 
view mode has been assigned.

Another alternative would be the generic view mode which would act sort 
of as a default mode that the user would like a folder to have unless he 
specifically makes the folder use its own specific settings or a 
particular view mode.

I do agree with the others though, that if I hit the 'Used by', I should 
see the list with those folders already using the particular view mode 
already selected.

Re: View Modes choices Not same

2004-02-27 Thread MAU
Hello Stefan,

Yesterday, you and I wrote:

 No view mode means using some column settings anyway. Which one
 should be used?  Is it account-wide, folder-specific or parent
 folder's?
 
 Right, now I get you. H, I'll have to think about it and talk with
 my pillow tonight, if I ever get to bed ;-)

I had a not too long talk with my pillow last night (I fell asleep) and
she gave me a couple of suggestions for you ;-)

What do you do when a view mode is deleted? Right, the folders that were
using it are set to (No View Mode). However, since the Generic Mode can
be set/defined by the user and it is a mode that cannot be deleted, I
would uses this as a default to revert to.

Now, what would I do (well, my pillow ;) with the Use by... dialog?

1.- Display on the Title bar the name of the View Mode that was selected
prior to clicking the Use by... button. One can make mistakes when
selecting the view mode :)

2.- Make this a Use/Used by (or however you want to call it) dialog. The
thing is that if it is opened for a view mode that is already being used
by some folders, they should appear as ticked with the check mark in the
display of the folder tree and the rest of folders with a blank box.

3.- If you remove the checkmark from one or more of the folders, they
should revert (be set to) Generic mode.

4.- But, what happens if you add a few folders (tick the empty box) to
use this view mode and then change your mind, or notice you have ticked
one you didn't really want to? You remove the check mark, right. But
should this folder now revert to the view mode it was using or to
Generic. I believe it should stay with the previous mode, whatever it
was.

5.- But if I have added a few check marks and after scrolling up and
down I remove a couple of them, how do I know what view mode will be
applied to these two folders? Previous (if it was different to the one
we are dealing with when I opened the Used by dialog) or Generic?

Simple, use three possible states: Blank, Check mark and X.

If I open the dialog for view mode A and Folder1 is checked, then that
folder can only toggle from Checked to Xed and from Xed to Checked. But,
if Folder2 is Blank, this can only toggle from Blank to Checked and from
Checked to Blank.

Then, when I click OK, the actions will be:

Box is Blank - Do nothing to the folder and it will use the view mode it was
   using.

Box is Checked - Set folder to use View mode A (the one we are dealing with)

Box is Xed - Set folder to use Generic mode.

I don't how and where you hold your folder tree structure, or if you build one
when the Used by... dialog is opened, but the above can be easily
implemented with a four column table:
  Folder
  View Mode
  Original state
  Changes

Original state is what is displayed when the dialog is opened and can
only be Blank or Checked and is also used to see if toggling can
(should) be Blank/Checked or Checked/Xed.

Changes will reflect that changes, and is the column used to take the
actions when clicking OK:

If Changes is Blank, do nothing and check next folder.
If Changes if Checked, set folder to use view mode A.
If Changes is Xed, set folder to use Generic view mode.

And finally, to easily remind the user what is going to happen if he
clicks OK, the three possible states (ICONS for) should be displayed on
the dialog itself, with a short explanatory text, perhaps right below
the Unselect all button.

Hope I have been able to explain what my pillow told me last night ;-)

WISH: six made on bugtracker

2004-02-27 Thread dAniel hAhler
Hello TBUDL,

I made some wishes on the bugtracker. Want to inform the ones that do
not hang around there usually.
If you have a comment on a specific wish, please adjust the subject.

Here we go:

 - Make the headers/kludges color configurable for standard (fixed
 plaintext) viewer.
Desc: In Preferences - Viewer/Editor - Plain Text/MicroEd I would like
to give the kludges another color to distinguish them from the
mailtext. Would be even nicer to have two settings: for header names
and header values.
http://www.ritlabs.com/bt/bug_view_advanced_page.php?bug_id=0002618

 - Function for the editor to strip all quotes from cursor to end of
 mail
Desc: I'd like to see a functions that can strip all quoted lines from
cursor's position upto the end of the mail. This should have a good
default hotkey, too. AFAIR GoldEd (FTN editor) had Alt-Z for that.
http://www.ritlabs.com/bt/bug_view_advanced_page.php?bug_id=0002616

 - edit entry in context menu for AB entries in address picker
Desc: The address picker that can be used when writing a mail to
fill in the To:-header field should provide an easy way to edit the
address book entries of these addresses. A good solution could be to
have Edit entry in the RMB-menu of the AB entries shown there, which
should bring up the real AB for this entry.
http://www.ritlabs.com/bt/bug_view_advanced_page.php?bug_id=0002515

 - calling plugin macros with prefixed plugin-name
Desc: As we are getting more and more plugins for TB there are already
two who provide a macro with the same name, namely Pyxies and
MyMacros' %TRIM macro. So batties have to be able to call one of these
macros explicitly by %Pyxies.Trim() or sth.
http://www.ritlabs.com/bt/bug_view_advanced_page.php?bug_id=0002619

 - plugin configuration - plugin manager
Desc: IMHO the plugin configuration could need a rework and should be
more a plugin manager. There could be a button get plugins that
would retrieve a compressed plugin list from the official plugin
download station, offering sorting by category, name, updated, .. Of
course it should include a description, too. This plugin manager could
then be used to check for updates and automatically install them
(optional and after user confirms).
For a good reference of plugin management see JEdit's plugin manager
and Miranda's Wassup plugin.
This should include checking for plugins that provide same macros (by
name) and give a hint somehow.
http://www.ritlabs.com/bt/bug_view_advanced_page.php?bug_id=0002622

 - Create a reference/symbolic link to a message
Desc: I'd like to be able to make a reference/symbolic link to a
message like the way I can copy a message, but with the advantage that
the messages are linked together and a action that happens to one of
them will be applied to all. That is, being replied on, deleted, ..
It would have the advantage to save space and be easier to maintain
that way.
Of course, the filter's should support this create link feature, too
(meaning that they should have the action create link in, like copy
to).

Re: Sumbission Forms

2004-02-27 Thread MAU
Hello Mark,

 That's my understanding of TB forms as well. I've always thought of
 them as one of the more useless features of TB. Right down there
 with the Menu Navigator (...ducking...)

Agree. What menu navigator can you use to find out how to enable Menu
Navigator? ;-)

WISH: general filter to move sent/received mails to contact-specific folders

2004-02-27 Thread dAniel hAhler
Hello TBUDL,

what do you think about a general filter (like Known) where you
select a destination folder and mark contacts from you address book(s)
that you'd like to have moved to a special folder?
This filter would then check for the marked AB contacts and move these
mails to a subfolder of the one that you defined in the filter.

The filters setup would look kinda like this:

Move to: folder
For: [x] Incoming [x] Outgoing
 [ ] Read [ ] Replied
Name of subfolders: [ ] Firstname  [ ] First Lastname
[ ] Handle [ ] Displayname
[ ] ...

..and somewhere the expandable AB where you can select which contacts
you want to be processed.

I would simply have to setup a common folder like personal, activate
this filter and mark the contacts that I write most to and would have
a very comfortable mailing situation, without setting
incoming/outgoing filters for every contact I want to be treated that
way.

I like that idea A LOT and am sure that it would be a great feature
for the upcoming new filter system.

Input, please..

Hello dAniel,

 what do you think about a general filter (like Known) where you
 select a destination folder and mark contacts from you address book(s)
 that you'd like to have moved to a special folder?

You can already do that. Define a Group in the AB, adding the contacts
you want to that group and, in the advanced tab of your filter, select
that the addresses must belong to that AB Group. I do this to sort mail
from people in a same company to a Company folder.

I never felt the need for the sub-folder as you explain, but I think it
can't be done now.

I have some more-traffic contacts that I want to be put into a single
folder and also realized that folding by contact is a common feature
request, at least for some people I brought to the bat.
You can, of course create a filter for all these people, but I wish it
was easier.

Re: Question About Reply Templates

2004-02-27 Thread Chris
Thanks for the replies guys. I'm using Mark's one at the moment for testing - to see 
if it does what I want. I was wondering if it could be refined:
1. To make the previously replied to text only have one '' character before it - 
after a few replies backwards  forwards, the text down at the bottom of the email has 
3 or 4 of the '' characters before it - I assume because one '' is added everythime 
you or the recipient hits the reply button.
2. I did change the %QUOTES to %TEXT - I prefer the %TEXT because if you just use the 
%QUOTES, text after a sig delimiter (for anyone who uses one  replies to one of your 
emails) gets cut off. When I reply to an email, I want the whole history displayed - 
every single little bit of text, every punctuation mark, nothing left out. The problem 
I found when I changed to %TEXT was that some of the text that you are replying to 
remains coloured black - whereas if you use the %QUOTES, all the replied to text is in 
a different colour to the one that you use. Is there any way to strike a balance 
between the two - on the one hand, have all text quoted like with %TEXT, but on the 
other have it all a different colour like in %QUOTES?
Essentially what I am trying to do here is to make The Bat! behave like Microsoft 
Outlook - the email program that every place I have ever worked has used. Using it 8 
hours a day for some years makes you expect things to be a certain way (even though 
the email program you use at home - The Bat! in my case obviously - is far superior). 
This replying business is one of them. I got the text that I wanted in my replies from 
an Outlook email thread,  now with the last 2 points above, I'm trying to make it 
exactly the same. Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks,

Chris

Yes. Use %QUOTES=%TEXT

C Essentially what I am trying to do here is to make The Bat!
C behave like Microsoft Outlook -

That's such a darned shame :-(. You might use this opportunity to
grow out of it. Instigate a dual set of replies, one of which is
an M$ homage and the other a more advanced and forward looking
homage to etiquette, sense and aesthetics. You can specify the
templates within address book groups and segregate your addresses by
reply style within those groups.

Just don't use the M$ reply template here. Oh yes, and add a cut
mark for your advanced reply templates. Like I said in my original
reply, text beneath a cut mark gets cut because it's supposed to.
Nothing after a signature should be carried forward. The only bits
of an original message that should normally appear in a reply are
the bits you're actually commenting on.

Imagine a conversation where every new response included every
single thing everyone has said so far in that conversation. It stops
working very soon. I'm not saying don't use top-post formatting for
your replies at all. I'm saying start thinking about using them
less often and introducing conversational reply styles to your
repertoire of communications skills. Once you get into it, you'll
appreciate the clarity and simplicity it embodies.

This colour coding is intrinsic to TB!. It's not sent with the

how colouring is done, is for what you or what your recipient is to see.
