Next time, you can go to the mail folder in your TheBat directory, find the account, and delete the *.tbi file. (While The BAt is closed.) This is the index file which contains flags such as "read" or "marked" and also contains the message count. Next time you open TheBat, a new index file will be created automtically. -- Cheers, Thomas. Current version is 4.2.42 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

You can use a Folder template - doing so is dangerous as it overrides other templates, but here it is from the (antiquated) help file SETEDITOR="n" Sets the current editor mode Possible values for n: 1 - Plain text Microed 2 - Plain text Windows editor 3 - HTML / Plain 4 - HTML only Perhaps someone can come up with a better answer -- Rick In a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act. - George Orwell v5.0.36.2 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 3 Current version is 4.2.42 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Automatic selection of viewer per folder
Does anybody know of a mechanism by which I can designate the viewer preference for each folder rather than all of TB? That is - I have my preferences set on "View HTML messages using:" and also "View messages with alternative layout (Text and HTML) as:" both set to: "HTML and Plain Text version" (show HTML first but also have a tab for plain text). After my incoming messages have been sorted to particular folders I find that the messages in SOME folders would be better handled by the setting: "Plain Text Version and HTML" (thus initially showing the plain text view but allowing me to switch tabs to HTML where needed). As it is, I find myself switching to the plain text view quite often in these particular folders and I would like to cut down on that if possible. I looked at the capabilities with macros, but even if the state could be changed, macros only seem to be useful during composing a new message.

How to clear Inbox folder?
Hello Bats!, I've apparently got a damaged inbox; it shows one unread message but nothing will display. Can someone tell me how to empty the folder without having to totally remove the account?

Re: Our-of-office messages

AFAIK TB has no Out of Office Replies However, it's not that difficult to create one with a filter. And if you compare the sender's address against an address book group, you can set the lists that don't need a message. And when you add the recipients of your out of office replies to that address book group, they won't be getting multiple replies. And when you get back you need to disable the filter. But this means that you've got to keep your computer (and TB) running while you're away. Is that what you want? An out of office reply should be handled by the server, whether it's run by your ISP, your boss or yourself. -- Groetjes, Roelof http://www.voormijalleen.nl/ Current version is 4.2.42 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

While you can create a filter that would send out-of-office replies, this would require you to leave The Bat running while you're away. Out-of-office (vacation) autoreplies are usually handled by the server, so you should check if your provider offers that. -- < Jernej Simončič ><><><><>< http://eternallybored.org/ > It works better if you plug it in. -- Sattlinger's Law Current version is 4.2.42 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
