In order to maintain the integrity of your regular address book, I suggest that you create a separate address book file just for this action. Besides the name and email you need to import the additional data in that address book to, configure the import to insert those data in fields that you don't use. that might be the home fax number, the street of the personal or busines addresses, etc. Create a template, for the additional data you insert the macro that indicates that field, like %ABToFAX The mass mailing has unexpected addresses when the address that it's looking for occurs multiple times in the address book. Therefore before you run the mass mailing, it's best to temporarily remove your regular address book from your TB setup. (That's another reason to import in a separate file.) Afterwards you simply place your regular AB back and delete the specioal import. -- Groetjes, Roelof Current version is 6.6 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Re: Transforming IMAP folders into common folders
Hallo TBUDL, Op donderdag 18 december 2014, 12:38:36, schreef Luca: My problem is: how do I transform an IMAP folder into a common folder, when I don't have access to the imap server anymore? Changing a imap folder into a common folder is not possible. By its nature an imap folder is remote (stored on the server) whereas a common is local. (stored on your own computer) The solution would be to create a new common folder and copy your remote messages to that new folder. It seems I cannot even copy a single message from an IMAP folder to a different one, if I'm not connected to the IMAP server. But it looks like you've tried that already. IMAP is stored remote, if you cannot access the server, you cannot access the messages. There might be a workaround: the IMAP cache. Create a new common folder. Don't store any messages there. Switch to the imap folder you want to 'restore' From the menu: Folder - Properties Here you'll find the full path to the IMAP cache of that folder something like some path\accountname\IMAP\SDF456.TBB Write that down. Shut down TB Copy the TBB file to the directory matching with your recently created common folder and rename it to MESSAGES.TBB. As it was an empty foldeer there shouldn't be any MESSAGES.* in that directory, otherwise delete them beforehand. Start TB and switch to the common folder. If you're lucky you've got the messages. Might depend on what you've got stored in the imap cache. I didn't try this myself. In the future when you stop using an imap server, copy the messages before the actual stopping to your local message base. -- Groetjes, Roelof http://www.voormijalleen.nl/ Current version is 6.6 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Please, is there any way to set the RB default To: address for New: and Reply: messages to the official group RB address, when in mailing list folders? That can be done by using a folder template that uses the To= macro, for this list that would be something like this: %To='TBUDL tbudl@thebat.dutaint.com'%- However, you should be very very very carefull with using these kind of macro in folder templates, because this macro adds the tbudl address to the existing To: header. Consider this scenario: You've been reading your tbudl mail and you start browsing, you enter the site of your bank and a question rises. You click on the mailto link at your bank site and start a message to your bank. Nothing special, you'd say. But because TB still has its focus on the tbudl folder it uses that template and it'll add the tbudl address to your To: header, so your message is being sent to your bank and tbudl. Don't think it won't happen to you. Over the years this has happened regularly. Not especially banks, but several messages containing private stuff that shouldn't appear on public mailing lists. It's no matter if it will happen, but only when. It happens when you've got a lot of things on your mind, that's when you're most vulnerable. Is there an alternative? Yes, there is a good alternative. Enter the mailing lists to your address book. Don't wonder about the address, simply send a message to tbudl and TB will auto-complete the address from your address book. In your address book you can enter special templates, so you can personalize your list messages to your own taste. Not only your new messages, but also your replies. Most mailing lists force replies back to the list by placing a reply-to header in the message. So the reply goes to the list. If you want to force TB to keep your reply general so it's clear that you reply toi the list, set something like this in the reply template in the address book entry of the list. (example is for tbudl) %To=%To='TBUDL tbudl@thebat.dutaint.com'%- Hi guys, It happened that %OFromName piped something to this list and here's two cents that I want to add: Continue with the rest of a proper reply template...

If I delete it from IAW the root or the particular group I added it to, both entries get IAW deleted. The problem is that you don't understand the exact structure of the address book. You're seeing the address groups and as they are shown as folders, you think they are folders. However, TB's address groups aren't folders, they're labels. So when you delete an entry from the root, you also delete it from the groups it was part of, because you delete the actual entry. It doesn't work the other way around (even though you seem to claim so) Deleting an entry from a group merely erases the group label for that entry. (Yes, I've tested that multiple times before posting that here.) You can also a single entry to multiple groups whether those groups have any connections with other or not. In a follow up message you found out about the 'hide items if not explicitly selected' option for an address group. Thjat option does two things. It stops the entry from being displayed in the root and when you delete such a message from a group, it'll be completely deleted from the address book. Those options stop working when you add an entry to a group with the hide items enabled and to a group without that option enabled. Adding an entry to a group with the 'hide items..' option enabled will keep it from being disp[layed in the root. So if you want it back and you create a new entry in the root, (You might want it there, after all) then you will have two entries with the same address. Look into the properties, if you've got one entry then the one entry will tell you to what groups that address belongs, but with two entries, they will show different group settings. Basically that is a bad thing. Multiple entries with the same address need to be changed all when that address changes (more work), but more important, the address book templates you've created for one of those entries won't work as expected, you'll never know what template settings you'll be using. All in all, TB's addres book is a wonderfull thing even tough you need to sit down a bit in order to understand it. -- Groetjes, Roelof Borg Moderator: Your Topic is Irrelevant. http://www.voormijalleen.nl/ The Bat! 5.3.10 Windows 7 6.1 Build 7601 Service Pack 1 5 pop3 accounts, 2 imap accounts OTFE disabled i7-2600 3.4GHz 4 GB RAM Current version is 5.2.2 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

In your windows/system32/drivers/etc/ folder you'll find a file hosts or hosts.sam In that file you add the line: ip-address hostname With hostname the same as you've entered in the account settings and ip-address the ip-address of your server. And in case you've only got a hosts.sam file, you need to rename that to hosts (without any extension) Note the file is plain text. And reset your pc. If this doesn't I haven't got any ideas. -- Groetjes, Roelof Moderators don't have to sign messages, you just KNOW. http://www.voormijalleen.nl/ The Bat! 5.0.0.151 RC1 Windows Vista 6.0 Build 6002 Service Pack 2 5 pop3 accounts, 3 imap account OTFE disabled Quad Core 2.4GHz 4 GB RAM pgppIzLh3VRom.pgp Description: PGP signature Current version is 4.2.42 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Re: TB! is asking for log on credentials?

Would re-installing TB! fix the problem? Would AK backing up the Mail folder, un-installing TB! and then replacing the AK Mail folder work? Don't restore a back-up that you've made after the problem, because the issue is in the maildirectory. Copy your complete mail directory Delete all account.* files in the mail directory (not in the subdirectories) start TB Now you'll probably have some reconfiguring to do, but with a little bit of luck the problem is gone.
