Re: Copying to new machine w/Vista
Hello Jack, On Wed, 25 Jun 2008 10:54:57 -0500 GMT (25/06/2008, 22:54 +0700 GMT), Jack S. LaRosa wrote: TF 1.) Make a full backup of TB! using the internal backup function. TF Click all options under Tools / Backup. JSL - snip - JSL Many thanks Thomas. Your suggestion seemed *slightly* easier (simpler JSL to my addled brain) compared to Roelof's so I tried it your way. JSL Everything seemed to work ok except apparently the backup doesn't JSL copy the address books. Strange. Hm. Let me check on the new computer tomorrow. FWIW, I don't use an addressbook in the office, just the address history. If the history doesn't show the desired address, the seaerch function is so fast that I don't even bother to keep an addressbook updated. I keep message forever in the office. At home, I do have an addressbook. I don't kow why, maybe because it's a nice toy. JSL I had to go back into the old machine to find and copy them JSL separately. I then transferred them to the new machine without JSL any problems. My wife is not as picky about how TB! operates as JSL am I so she isn't bothered by stuff that would annoy the hell JSL out of me. I may take Roelof's suggestion to upgrade to v4 on JSL her machine however. JSL In retrospect, Dan's suggestion might have worked better had I looked JSL at it closer. In any case, she's up and running and that's all she JSL cares about. Right, all seems well now. JSL I did find a problem(?) with transferring K9 over to her machine. JSL Everything transferred ok including a separate copy of K9's large JSL storage of emails but I never could get K9 to recognize that those JSL emails were there. It just means that she'll have to re-educate K9 JSL all over again but since neither of us has been receiving spam to the JSL degree we were when I installed K9, it shouldn't be a problem. I have no idea about that. At home, I use GMX with a free server-side spam filter, and in the (new) office, I don't receive spams yet. JSL So, alls well that ends well. Thanks to all that helped in this JSL endeavor. You are welcome. -- Cheers, Thomas.

T Hope this makes it clearer Unless I'm missing something, which is quite frequently the case, it looks like you're trying to prevent your replies from including the dashes or underscores in the reply salutation. If I've guessed correctly, it looks like this is a job for a properly constructed RegExp which would automagically trim those characters from your reply salutation. Unfortunately, I have absolutely no knowledge on how to construct/use RegExps but there are others on this amazing list who do. The only reason I can think of for why someone would include odd characters in their name is that they might be trying to track the origins of subsequent spam. Hope I haven't clouded the issue any further. -- Best regards, Jackmailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Now running TB! v3.99.3 from Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 - Service Pack 3 Current version is 4.0.24.0 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
