At first, v5 seemed to work fine, but the longer I used it the more nuisances I discovered. For example: - At some point I needed to use TheBat without Internet connection (on a train). It's a pain, I can't remove Flags, can't save messages (since it tries to save them in the IMAP outbox on the server, which is not available), and so on. - I work a lot with virtual folders. Working inside these folders has become a pain, since they get constantly refreshed and messages disappear, see https://www.ritlabs.com/bt/view.php?id=8929 - I also use quick search quite often. It used to work well in v4, but now doesn't, especially if you use several quick searches one after another, see https://www.ritlabs.com/bt/view.php?id=8932 I would recommend to everyone to stay with v4 if you can live with its bugs and don't want to risk trying out new ones :-) -- Best regards, Carsten Current version is 4.2.42 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

If you don't have a permanent Internet connection you can forget IMAP with v5. I mentioned this on the Beta list a long time ago, nothing changed. I can only recommend going back to v4. It's not just deleting: You can remove flags, but suddenly they reappear. If you use a remote outbox you can't even save messages. It's ridiculous.

Re: Bat 5.0.18 - mighty buggy still

I can only confirm that. I'm now using 5.0.18, so a version several updates after 5.0, and there are still so many bugs that I wouldn't recommend updating to anyone who can live with v4 / got used to the bugs there and doesn't want to risk new ones. The main problems I see, which is why I don't recommend updating: - Problems during the update process (if you're lucky your IMAP folder settings is the only thing you lose) - IMAP outbox still not working, risk of message loss (different bugs, but same result as in v4) - IMAP periodical check and counters not working correctly (showstopper for me) I complained a lot about IMAP in v4, and still think it's rediculous that v4 was released with all those bugs. But at least I know the behaviour in and out now. With v5 the bottom line is that it didn't get better, but you'll have to adjust to new bugs and new odd behaviour. I don't see the benefit. -- Best regards, Carsten Current version is 4.2.42 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
VCALENDAR messages

Re[2]: Account for common virtual folders
Hi MFPA, Ok, I fixed it. It's definitely a bug, but you can solve it by playing around with the "This is the default account" checkbox on several accounts: I removed it from my default account (account 1), so there was officially no account defined as default anymore. Message from the Virtual Folders were still created from account 3. So I set and then removed the flag from account 3, which resulted in new messages being created from account 2. Setting and removing the flag there resulted in finally new message being created from account 1! -- Best regards, Carsten Current version is 3.99.27.2 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Well, the problem is not with replying: When replying, The Bat automatically replies from the account the original message (not the one in the VFolder) is located in. So that's fine. My problem is when creating a *new* message. Usually it is created from the account currently selected, or from the default account if you click on a mailto: link. But when browsing Virtual Folders, it is created from an account that is not the default account.

Configure X-Header field
Hi,
Maybe some of you have the same problem: Some of the main Canadian ISPs (namely Bell)
block all SMTP-Servers except their own. So I cannot send email over my
email-provider's or domain provider's SMTP. As Bell's SMTP-Server accepts any FROM
name, I could use it as relay and just put my normal email address (e.g. [EMAIL
PROTECTED]) in that field. I used this for quite a while, but now it's becoming
problematic: I get caught more and more in other people's SPAM filters, because I send
email with an @gmx.de address but not over the appropriate server. Bell doesn't put
any X-Sender, so very understandable that my email gets filtered.
I can get arround this by putting my address at Bell into the X-Sender field manually.
What I'd like to know is how I can have it put there automatically. I tried
%SETHEADER("X-Sender", "[EMAIL PROTECTED]") but when typin a message I still see
nothing in the X-Sender field. Please help

How to filter Worm (the Microsoft one)
Hi all, For about a week now I get tons of email with this worm that pretends coming from Microsoft and being a security update (most of you will know the worm, I think it is called Swen). In the beginning I thought my internet provider would filter it after a day or it would just stop, but it's getting more and more. There are two emails, one appearing to be from Microsoft, another one telling me that a message couldn't be deliver. Both have this 106K attachment containing the worm. How do I filter this? The message text changes a little bit each time and I can't filter for an attachment length. Can anyone please just quickly post a working filter for this.

Re: The Bat! v2 Upg Price of $17.50 until October 31, then what?
A> The Ritlabs site says: You're right, it appears as if the update offer will be completely gone and that is just ridiculous for a couple of reasons: - The differences between 1.62 (especially 1.63beta) and 2.0 are not that huge after all. Of course a lot changed since 1.0, but that doesn't help the users who registered in July. To make it fair they should be allowed to upgrade any time later, when 2.0 offers enough improvement for them to be worth the upgrade. And don't anyone tell me that v2 has been 75% (or completely as Ritlabs announec months or years ago) newly programmed. Some same stupid bugs persist (like the line-wrap and the consequence that you can't Ctrl-Backspace over lines) and the program looks pretty much the same - V2 is still pretty much a beta, just released to keep the announced date. I just installed it for a friend on a WinXP machine: The menu bar background stays white after having clicked on a menu, and then there were a couple of crashes (access violations), e.g. when purging folders. For more see TBBETA list. - It's something new that other companies haven't dared before. In the good old days updates where something like 20% of the price of a product. Once you bought it you had a license and the update price was relative to the percentage of new features (or something like that). Then big companies like MS came along who had to sell updates in stores and the update prices went up to 50% to 70% of the original product's price. Bad enough, but now the update availability is limited to two months while the product is not even stable. Sorry, that's too much, I'm not gonna pay it. I don't need the update now and if in a few months, when I think I'll want it, I'll have to pay the full price again, I'll just go get another email program like Mozilla. There at least I have an open developers' policy with a roadmap and multi-platform support. The advantage of The Bat are worth a price, but that's over the line, sorry. The argument that Ritlabs is a company and is free to do what they want doesn't count. Of course they can do what they want, but they have to live with the users' opionions and/or reactions to that. (no to get into the ethics stuff) I can't believe that there are people who take it for a fair option to buy the upgrade now and only start using it in a couple of months. Think about it, how ridiculous is that? Guti Current version is 2.00 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
