There might be another approach, a bit clumsy but it can be automated, using command line parameters. You could start up TB! using a command line batch file (look in the help file for details) that exported certain parked messages from the folder, and imported them into another. The main problem appears to be that although you can specify an age in days, it only exports those younger that that age. You would have to export and delete ALL parked messages from your tbudl folder to your keep folder, and then re-export and delete the younger messages from keep back to tbudl. If you start up TB! on a daily (or more frequent) basis, that should do what you need. -- Robin Anson Using The Bat! v2.11.02 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 1 Current version is 2.11.02 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Another filter question
G'day all. He's what I would have thought was a simple one, but I can't seem to get it to work. With emails to the tbudl list, I've got two filters: 1) emails addressed to the list are sorted into the "TheBat!" folder, and 2) emails addressed to the list AND sent by me are sorted into the "TheBat!" folder and PARKED. However, despite the filter for parking my posts being above the generic filter, my messages aren't parked, just filtered, as per normal.

That's because your messages are parked, being parked means that they won't be deleted, so moving ends in copying as the message appears in the keep-folder but 'forgets' to disappear in the source folder.

Though I've used Agent only for news, I must say that I've never really understood Agent's filtering mechanisms. I suppose it's part of TB's filtering strength that the filters are executed in the order you place them. As for keeping them organised, I'm using a couple of dummy filters to divide my sorting office in sections, they're filters with an impossible condition, like in recipient, but as names they're using long strings as this: " Mailinglists **" That means that while browsing through the sorting office I easily find my filters for mailing lists, for AB filters, etc -- Groetjes, Roelof Disclaimer: Any opinion stated in this message is not necessarily shared by my budgies or rabbits.

Deleting Reminder
In TB! 2.11.03, I tried to delete a reminder after its time had come and gone, but was unable to do it. I went in through Tools/Scheduler. Is there another way that is required, or do past scheduled items not delete? -- JN Current version is 2.11.02 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Unfortunately this doesn't appear to be a viable option per http://www.annerykiln.co.uk/thebat.txt. Richard may have given good advice per mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED], however I see you have a problem per your #15 on http://www.annerykiln.co.uk/thebat.txt. I am no expert on TB backup tool, but when using TB backup tool have you tried *only* selecting the following: 1 Folder with Messages 2 Address Books 3 Attachment Files On your http://www.annerykiln.co.uk/thebat.txt you talk about a "BackUp application" and do not state what it is, but mention the problem of NTFS file access which sounds like a permissions problem. Whatever you use for a backup and restore option are you doing it from an admin account? Thinking out loud and not being an XP expert it almost sounds like the permissions are getting messed up with the backup application. If you are using limited accounts to access TB on different machines, does the NTFS permissions carry forward to the restored directories? If yes and the limited accounts have different names, then this may be what is causing the problem. Whatever! -- Best Regards, Greg Strong Using The Bat! v2.12 Beta/7 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 1 Current version is 2.11.02 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

I understand what you are saying. My only point was that (1)TB is not designed to be a graphic HTML editor. It has some basic tools and that is it. (2) For fancier work, an external (not just MS Office components) program will be necessary. Whether one chooses to use Word, Excel, Open Office, Star Office or something else isn't the point.

Filter question
G'day all, A question to which I have not been able to find an answer. (One of the MANY that I would have no answers to if it were not for this list, as the documentation is seriously sub-standard, especially given what a terrific program it is.) I filter all of my tbudl email into one folder. Some of the emails I keep (park), and every so often I move the parked emails into a sub-folder called (imaginatively) - 'keep'. What I would like to do is have the program automatically move the parked messages into the folder after a certain length of time. (Say, five days.) In the 'advanced' tab of the filter I can tell it only to work if the message is parked, read and over 4 days old, but I have some difficulties: 1) what triggers the filter? 2) When running the filter manually, sometimes it moves the messages but sometimes it copies them, which is a major problem. I have nothing in the filter string, rule is active, I am confused. Answers gratefully accepted... (As an aside, the organisation of filters in TheBat! leaves a LOT to be desired as well. Coming from Agent, where filter management was simple and clear, it was something of a shock to find that such powerful filters were so difficult to keep organised.) -- cheers, Mic (return address works) I'm not a complete idiot, some parts are missing.

Account ->> Sorting Office/Filters -> Selective Download Thanks. It's really what I need ! Just a little problem, I think it could be a good idea in a new version of TB to have the possibility of sending an auto mail to the sender that I automatically kill his mails. Like the features named "Action" in ordinary filters. If not, the sender never knows what I've decided to do with his mails. In case of friends who send me too much jokes of 5 or 6 Mo per day of course, for spammer I don't mind. Suppose one of this mail is very important, without automatic answer like "Your mail has been automatically killed - If it is important, try to phone the person...", I become unreachable. -- WilWilWil [EMAIL PROTECTED] TB 2.11.02 Windows XP Service Pack 1 Current version is 2.11.02 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

I can wirte Polish characters in eMails and I can see them there. I'm also in the Polish lista dyskusyjna!

I wrote about this problems more than 2 years. Do you have Polish names in your addressbook and do you get the Polish letters in it, when you write to one? I, not!
