Re: OTFE - some questions
On Wed, 2011-01-05, MFPA wrote: M 9. How is using TB!'s OTFE better than simply M locating your mailfolder in an encrypted M location, such as a TrueCrypt container? The difference is that when you've mounted the encrypted location, third party programs (doesn't matter whether they're Santa's 'good' or 'bad' list) can access your message base. When you're using OTFE you're message base can only be accessed by TB and it's plug-ins. Interesting - I'd not thought of that. Doesn't TB! need to place a decrypted version of a file in a temp directory while actually working with/editing it? Well, since I believe that OTFE stands for On The Fly Encription I imagine that whole files are not decrypted, but instead TB has a sort of builtin driver to access the mail database while only decrypting and encrypting a buffer at a time. -- Bill McQuillan bill.mcquil...@pobox.com Using The Bat! 2.11 on Windows XP 5.1 build 2600-Service Pack 2 Current version is 4.2.23 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Text not maroon when pasted as quotation
Hi, I just noticed recently that text I paste into an email as a quotation no longer shows in the default color for quotations, but just as black text with a few thrown in. I checked in the preferences, but nothing has changed there. Quoted text is supposed to show in maroon. Is there anything I can do to get this back the way it was? -- Best regards, Susannemailto:sisk...@gmail.com Using The Bat! 4.2.6 OS: Windows 7 6.1 Build 7600 Current version is 4.2.23 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Hello Susanne, I agree - I would like that back too Oh, so this is a feature that was dropped from previous versions? I thought I changed a setting somewhere inadvertently.

Good catch although there is still a problem. I have the generic view and another named one. Both have the small maroon text defined but different fonts. I was using the named one and a quick check after switching to generic, successfully pasted maroon text.
