Who is that Masked Man? LOL! Thanks Robin. With that little bit of
information I am getting closer to what it is I would like to do ...
not exactly ... but very close ... so close ... I can live with this
approach!

Thanks to all for their suggestions as collectively you've helped me
greatly.  I do like The Bat! ... just gotta figure it out ... and with
all your help, there's hope for me!  ;))

I'm a bit perplexed here re: grouping and reading a set of messages ... only those messages within the group ...

2003-11-12 Thread Bo Dirigo
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.

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.

Newbie here ... how does one read messages in an off-line mode?

2003-11-05 Thread Bo Dirigo
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.

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!
