Re: Speaking of signatures [EMAIL PROTECTED]

 I'm lazy, no right click is needed, and the randomness is actually fun.

A word of caution: The Bat's random number generator has an ironic sense  
of humor. If your cookies are like mine (sarcastic), you'll need to check  
the cookie against the message and sometimes remove the cookie. It doesn't  
look good writing someone about deadlines and including this famous quote:

I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by.
- Douglas Adams

My cookies aren't active at the moment because I'm using the Opera e-mail  
client. While I'd like to use The Bat, the IMAP support in Opera's client  
is much better. And, it has instant, whole-corpus search.

Mail tracking mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

 To my knowledge this will only work with HTML mails that load
 contents from the web. If you stick to plain text or avoid loading
 content not delivered with the mail, this cannot happen. Please
 CMIIW.

 Does reading html emails within TB already constitute this issue or
 would you have to do more to load content?

Since you are using version  4 (or so), you cannot load external
images unless you open the attached HTML file.

So, unless you open the HTML file, you are safe*.

In version 4, there is the Download URL Manager. You can use it to
select which images are loaded. With a little inspection, you can
usually figure out which image has the tracking code attached.

* No absolute guarantees. But, I'd put money on it.

Impossible to Deleting messages? mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

 we update to the latest version of TB but when sometimes TB won't
 allow us to delete message from the tree (trash icon, delete key or
 right mouse button click then delete, all is not available).

 If we double click and open it then the trash icon works. It doesn't
 occur on all the accounts we have, and not all the time, it suddenly
 locks files from deletion then release them without visible
 reasons.

I've seen this on my IMAP mailbox. It usually indicates that the IMAP
connection is slow or that I've been disconnected from the server for
some reason.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] @ 2008-1-14 12:29:30 PM
Attachments question mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

 Hi All,

 I recently posted a question about the maximum file (.tbb) size that
 the Bat! can handle.  My friend started getting warnings when the
 inbox approached 2 gigs.  That number stunned me (and a few of you) as
 I have over 20,000 messages in 1 account and it's barely 100 megs.

 As it turns out, he has picture attachments included with most emails
 (he's in the gallery biz) and I'm pretty sure that's what's the cause
 of the 2 gig .tbb file.

That makes sense to me. (An interesting side note: due to the standard
method of encoding attachments, an encoded attachment is typically
about 4/3 as large as the original file.)

 So to my question.  If I split the attachments from the emails will
 this help?  I noticed that you can give attachments their own special
 directory, rather than keeping them in the message bodies. Are there
 any drawbacks to this method?

Yes, it will. However, you lose a bit of the linkage between the
e-mail and the attachment. I know that in previous versions, deleting
a message with and attachment stored in an external directory did not
delete the attachment as well. This may have changed. Can someone
else fill in the details?

 Also, there is an option to bind attachments only when sending out
 mail. What does this mean?

If unchecked, right before the message is sent, The Bat! will open the
attached file and encode it. Any changes you make between attaching
the file and sending it WILL be sent. If checked, The Bat! will encode
the file the moment you attach the file. Any changes you make between
attaching the file and sending it WILL NOT be sent.

 Actually the other way around! If you check it, the version of the
 file that is current when you send the email is attached. If it is
 not checked, the version of the file that is current when the email
 was written is attached.

 Am I going mad, or did TB! used to give me the option to specify the

You need to use the rich text viewer/HTML viewer, not the plain text
viewer to get these options. You can then set The Bat! to display HTML

 All the filters for this account simply refer to the headers, none

IMAP Filter Weirdness

2007-10-02 Thread Christopher W .

I am in the process of moving one of my accounts from POP to IMAP.
Everything seems to be going fine (so far). I've started to move my
filters over.

I ran into a weird problem though. I am on a high traffic
announcements mailing list. I have a filter that moves these messages
into their own folder. There is also an archive folder. I have
configured the main folder to move the messages to the archive folder
when I delete them. That appears to work. However, the filter is
reapplied, and the messages end up back in the main folder.

What am I doing wrong?

Compatibility with two or more displays connected to the same computer 
mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

 No. It means that if you have two monitors connected to one
 computer (see picture), The Bat! will function reasonably. It will
 remember which monitor it was on. It will move between monitors
 when one is disconnected. Etc.
 Except it doesn't...

Well, that's the theory anyway...

 Have TB on second monitor...
 Disconnect laptop from dock...
 Restart TB and it opens on second, now non-existent, monitor.

This only happens to me when Windows doesn't notice that the external
monitor has been disconnected. When I go into my display properties
and remind Windows that there is only one monitor now, all the windows
on the non-existent monitor jump back to my main screen.

Can't install 3.99.24 mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

 While installing The Bat! Professional v3.99.24 I get the following
 error:

 The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is
 unavailable. Click OK to try again, or enter an alternate path to a
 folder containing the installation package
 'thebat_pro_3-99-3[1].msi' in the box below.

 Use source: C:\Documents and Settings\Gebruiker\Local
 Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\C3BZVTIV\

 What strikes me is that the installer is looking for
 thebat_pro_3-99-3[1].msi while I'm clearly trying to install
 3.99.24... I thought maybe a wrong file name was defined in the
 setup wizard and pointed to the original thebat_pro_3-99-24.msi
 instead, but that gives the same error.

I think that it's trying to uninstall parts of 3.99.3 but cannot find
the MSI file. I'd redownload the 3.99.3 MSI and, when prompted to find
thebat_pro_3-99-3[1].msi again, point it at the newly download 3.99.3
MSI.

 Need to know, what does the meaning of Compatibility with two or
 more displays connected to the same computer. I found this sentence
 in http://www.ritlabs.com/en/products/version.xml for the bat!
 version 3.99.24. Does it mean that we can install the bat! into two
 PC with the same email folder that placed on one PC ?

No. It means that if you have two monitors connected to one computer
(see picture), The Bat! will function reasonably. It will remember
which monitor it was on. It will move between monitors when one is

Sub Filters: can I create 'filter groups'? mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

 Really, I suppose it boils down to cosmetics and preference at the
 end of the day. I mean that organising particular contacts into a
 'group' in AB and filtering against the AB group will still mean
 just as much effort setting up as creating indiviudal filters for
 each email address under the Sorting Office. It's just that the
 filters list won't be as long if you do it the AB way...and
 instinctively we like to group things.

And, if you need to change the filter later, you only have to change
it in one place.

 So, 3.99.3 is an earlier version than 3.99.24?  That seems odd.

3  24, not to be confused with the (nonexistent) 3.99.2.4, which
would be older than 3.99.3.

 The Bat appears to be running OK, but when I open the Task Manager I
 see two BAT icons running. If I End Task both icons disappear.

 I did check, that by any chance I am running 2 Bats, but could not locate

Had one, perhaps, crashed and the icon not disappeared until you
