I can live with this approach! Thanks to all for their suggestions as collectively you've helped me greatly.

I'm a bit perplexed here re: grouping and reading a set of messages ... only those messages within the group ...
Howdie TBL'ers, Thus far, I have been unsuccessful in grouping messages and reading them contiguously/continuously, i.e., one right after another. While I can group them, i.e., messages with the same Subject, it does not appear that I can read the first message in the group, then the next, then the next ... instead after having read the first message, The Bat! will jump to either another group of messages or a single message that happens to be in between the groups of various messages. I've used the path View View threads by Subject to group the messages. Is(are) there some other option(s) I should be setting to accomplish what I want to do? Is there also a way to do this when one uses the Search Tool on, e.g., Subject? I've used the Search Tool and the end result was simply a list of messages with the designated Subject argument ... good, so far, but when I opened the first message to read it, I again simply wanted to read the next message in the search list. It didn't happen. Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions. -- Best regards, Dirigo Current version is 2.01.3 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Re[4]: I'm a bit perplexed here re: grouping and reading a set of messages ... only those messages within the group ...
Hello Stuart and Melissa, Thank you both for your suggestions. I used both the Shift-Cntrl +/- to expand and contract grouped messages (grouped using Vasily's suggestion of View View thread by References). Both commands worked quite well. However, I was unsuccessful in being able to read one message right after another. Yes, the up, down, right arrow keys worked in the sense of moving from one message to another IN THE GROUPED LIST itself, but, after opening the first message in the list and after having read it, to simply move to the next message (with it spontaneously opening to be read) is/was a non-event/a no-go. Perhaps I am failing to describe my problem adequately, so let's say you open a message in your inbox, then you select the Next icon option. It has been my experience that the next message will automatically open and present itself to be read. The Subject field of these messages aren't necessarily even related ... simply messages received in a certain order. What I would like to do is simply select a message (either grouped per se via the Search Tool or the View by thread option) and be able to do the same thing ... having no luck thus far, so I have to assume PEBCAK (Problem Exists Between Chair And Keyboard) since it seems like you folks don't have this problem. Thanks Melissa for the detailed suggestions ... and you are certainly correct when you state there are more than one way to achieve an objective. BYW, I agree with your suggestion re: a toggle ON/OFF switch for reading emails ON/OFF line. This functionality has nothing to do with whether one has broadband or dial-up. I'll keep trying on my end. Maybe I'm close and am just missing something ... but just don't know it. Yeah, right. LOL. Take care y'all. -- Best regards, Dirigomailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Current version is 2.01.3 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Newbie here ... how does one read messages in an off-line mode?
Hello TBUDL, Is there a way to read messages in an off-line mode? I have approx. 6-7 accounts set-up which downloads their respective messages at various times. Outside of going into each account and unchecking the Periodical checking box or increasing the time interval of checking for mail, I have not found a simple way of going off-line yet. I tried The Bat!'s Help to no avail. I checked the message archive and found nothing of consequence. Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions. -- Best regards, Bo mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Current version is 2.01.3 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Hello Antje, Antje wrote: AL I, too, cannot think of a solution to this problem, however I would AL recommend that you have all your accounts checked within the same time AL interval. This should at least prevent the connection center from AL popping up every now and then, but only after the amount of time you AL Thanks for your suggestions. Hopefully with this message I have the word wrap settings correct. My apologies for the rather long lines in previous message. I checked my settings ... seemed to be OK ... except I had to switch to use MicroEd ... hope that does the trick! -- Best regards, Dirigomailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Current version is 2.01.3 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
