Far  too  large  for email. Even if it works, it will take for ever to
send  and probabky bounce anyway because it exceeds the mmessagae size
limit of the recipient's mailbox.

Put it on an FTP server

I started programming systems using punch cards, through 7-bit
mini-computers up to Windows XP & Vista. The error handling has not
been improved. In fact, encapsulation thanks to (D)COM and
object-orientation have (in my experience) only "muddied the waters",
because of the replacement of low-level error messages with other
error messages in the outer encapsulation layers.

The fact is that like writing documentation, error handling does not
pay the bills for software companies and very few are willing to trade
on the intangibles like: good will, good customer education and so on;
potentially created by good documentation and error handling efforts.

The lack of faith in such intangibles is one reason why I burned-out
and traded programming for translating languages as a career path.

Ok, what you'll need to do is find the Outbox directory used by TB on
your local machine. It should contain two files, a Message.TBB and a
"Message" file with either a TBI or a TBN extension. (You might want
to enable the display of file extensions for this, because Windows
deactivates the display of extensions by default, under the assumption
that users are too dumb to understand the meaning of file extensions.)

The TBB file(s) are the mail database(s). The TBI or TBN file(s) are
the index files. I would suggest renaming the TBI or TBN file, say
from "Message.TBN" to "OldMessage.TBN". (Essentially, save the file
just in case you need to put it back, right?)

Then, start TB. When it finds that the Message.TBI/TBN file is
missing, that should trigger a re-index process.

I would also recommend against sending anything from the Desktop. It
is not a real directory per se. It is a virtual directory that is
attached under the directory used by Windows for user accounts (as are
all of the "My..." directories). User account directories are
specially protected against user intervention/"interference". That
special protection may have interfered with the process of encoding
the MP4 for transmission. It's better to place files in directories
that have been created by the user (directly under the drive
partition, such as a D:\Upload directory).

My guess is that the size of the file is not the problem. Therefore
recommendations for external programs, apps and websites will not
help.

Instead, the problem is that the indices used by TheBat have become
corrupted and TB needs to be told to re-create them. As long as the
corrupted index files exist, it will spit out the out of memory error
upon start up.

I'm not sure if there is a flag that can be set using the command
line, when starting TB from the command line, or if one or more of the
files in your directory structure will have to be deleted (to force
the corresponding mail database to be re-indexed). Fortunately, TB
keeps the indices external to the mail databases...I just don't know
which extension those index files use.

My recommendation is to wait for someone with such knowledge to
respond and I hope this message has gotten the conversation going in
the direction of a real solution. Hopefully, you know your own
directory structure well enough to know which directory contains the
Outbox or Sent directory with the corrupted index.

If you've noticed it whilst trying to print a message, I wonder if your

I had a similar problem earlier this week with another program that was
falling over 'out of memory'. My temp folder was full of 'tmp' files. I'm
guessing that when TB is printing it spools to the temp folder.

If you weren't using Windows 2000 I would have said your system is running
low on GDI resources. Yet, AFAIK Windows 2000 doesn't have GDI limits. I
ran into the same problem and some other software was the culprit
(Sensiva) and the Bat the victim. I think under W2k you can use the Task
Manager to monitor GDI resources, try to see if they are at a limit.

Sorry, some W2k user might give you better instructions.

How many memory is there on your computer,
 how many free ?
Do you purge and compress your folders ?
 Messages.tbb file size ?
Do you check your index files (.Tbi) ?
 A sign of a corrupt index can be an error when trying to backup,
 in this case try to delete it and restart The Bat!.

Out of Memory/Grid index out of range

2002-02-06 Thread Kitty

Originally posted to the beta list since I thought this might be a
beta issue.  However, I got no responses and I've tried several betas
and have the problems now with all of them so tend to think it is not
a beta issue particularly since it just started and I've been using
various betas for a long time.

I am getting a lot of out of memory messages.  Several weeks ago, when
doing kill dupes in all folders, I would occasionally get a box saying
out of memory and it would stop in the middle of the process.   The
rest of the time everything is OK.

Now, I am getting this frequently at other times.  For example, I was
going to sort a folder by thread by subject and I got the out of
memory box.  (Closed program and reopened and could sort by subject).

Or I was simply scrolling down the list of messages in
a folder and I suddenly got the out of memory box.



Also, I wanted to go to my sent folder (which has about 25
messages in it) and I got the message grid index out of range.
However, that is fairly rare.  I get the out of memory messages
frequently and can't seem to tie it to anything I've done on my
computer.

(I am using Windows 2000 in case it matters).  Any thoughts?

Out of Memory

2000-12-16 Thread Nebula

Hallo,

today I had the problem, that the Inbox of one account could not be purged
or compressed because of an "out if memory"-error. I moved all messages to
a new folder, but I always got the error-message. So I made the "Inbox" a
subfolder by moving it with CRTL+ALT+MOUSE into any folder. In this case I
was able to delete the Inbox. I created a new folder named Inbox and moved
all messages back into this folder.

I don't know what had happened, but I know how to solve ... ;-)

Nebi!

Re: Splitting files with WinRAR[Re[5]: Out of memory trying to attach 9 megabyte ZIP file]

1999-11-07 Thread Soth

 This is interesting. I have WinRAR but I couldn't find the command for
 splitting  file.  How  can  it be done? I would really appreciate your
 explanation  because  I  would  like to split TB on two floppies since
 this version is the first that is bigger then 1.44MB;)

*grin* wasn't going to say anything, but since I do have the answer to
your question, I'll also point out that this isn't the first version to
go over the 1.38MB (1440kb) limit. ;-) I think that 1.35 did it.

To split a file:
Open up WinRar, and select the file you want to split.
Select Commands-Add files to Archive (Alt-A)
There is a drop-down box called "Volume size, in bytes".  Use that to
determine the size of your volumes.  (Ie/ 362400, WinRar will compress
your file and split the archive into 362400 byte chunks.)

Personally, I fully recommend WinAce. ;-)

Take care. :-)

 Rubbish
 if you had read the various emails you would have seen that I
 myself am absolutely against huge attachments being send via
 mail.  FTP is a much better way and even then files being split
 is preferable. Normally I would use winrar for that, 1.44 per
 file as on ftp as well its much easier to see what has been send,
 is complete and what isnt. My file split size is selected on
 purpose as most of my attachments if send via ftp or email have
 to be moved to another system so I make sure they fit on
 floppies...
 anyway,
 1. I didnt want to send a 30 mb email but as I can drop a 22 mb
 file, generating a 33 or so mb email WITHOUT crashing the bat
 while its sending, the best way to proof that is a small jpeg.
 One picture is worth more then a 1000 words or whatever the
 proverb says so it likely saves space...
 The fact that the large email was going proves that there
 doesnt have to be the problem sending large files with the bat.
 That its unwanted practise is a different matter and no-way would I
 send anyone a huge email like that.
 I couldnt as my server would bounce it back to me!!
 But as I mentioned I always drag and drop, never use the menus.
 
 2. I was testing the complaint, confirmation was requested,
 so I tested it , made the jpeg and then canceled the 33mb or whatever
 sized email...

 3. system is win98 second edition, celeron 300A (running
 rockstable at 450), 256 mb ram.

 BUT, I still think as mentioned by myself and by others that the
 BAT leaks memory / resources somewhere as if you have it open for
 a while and close / open various things you have a very good
 chance to slowly freeze the BAT.   But I donot think size of
 attachment itself is the problem.

If you're looking for space on the web to store/exchange files, try

www.mediadepot.com (30Mb free)

just check 'em out  love 'em...
they are great for small backups  file-transfer:
you can even create 'communities' where everybody can have different

Ralf Hmm. Takes about 30 seconds here. Someone else mentioned that it does

Correct, I tested it with 30 mb..  as my largest email has been about
2-2.5 mb...
But then I always drag and dropped so I wouldnt know there was
a problem.
Secondly it may be a windows problem as similar/related problems have
occurred when moving/deleting files in windows.

ie  delete,copy ,drag and move/copy or highlight/press delete key and return
instead of right click and select delete/move/cut/copy/paste
I managed in the past to several times hang my system by these combos
and while I forgot what was better/worse I was at that time convinced
they have a different way to do things memory-wise and the BATS
problem could be related to that..

I just did the same attachment again using the icon in the bat.
No problem, the 20 mb went in in less then a second.
No idea if it sends..

Anyway, I have 4 hard disks, Naster 0 runs a Linux development
version, slave 0 runs my 98 boot( 3 partitions, 10 gb or so total),
master 1 is a 6.4 gb (3 partitions) and slave 1 is a 3.2 gb (which isnt in the bios
active but 98 find it obviously)
I donot NOT have my virtual memory file on either C or the partition with
my emails or data storage.
And I have 256 mb ram (high speed selected ones) and a celeron 300A
running at 450 or sometimes 500

I had intended to try it on an osr2 system but since it works with me
under 98 v2...
Personally I think is more likely a windows bug!!

I've done it before. Well, a 5 megs attachment went along it's way just
fine. Why should some points reject a large message? Is there a general
rule or a RFC or something like that that restricts the maximum size of
a message?

Some servers will say that if you use them... Normally the maximum is
set to 2 mb. At least thats what I do so you would get it direct back
as refused as outgoing mail...

Ralf Joking aside, I think this is a bug and it looks to me like there is
Ralf memory not properly being released or there is some other kind of memory
Ralf leak. Doesn't leave me with much trust in the general stability of the

Memory leaks... well, I think it has them, but not sure if its on its
own or in cooperation with other software.
You may have mised the discussion last week which was about a similar
problem but with 15 mb BMP's being send...

Its not just you, if the sending does through it can cause problems on
the other side and if it bounces you get that same sized email back to
your mail box...

SL The RFCs (I thought it was 822, but it is not, I am now looking for the

SL still are, considered a denial of service.  Many places will limit the size of
SL the message.  The average that I have herd of is 5Mb where some are as low as
SL 2Mb.

I've  been  telling  customers  about  that 64kb limit all the time...
after  having  tried, I must say many mail server admins don't seem to
care  about that rumor ;) I send around large files, even 15 MB or so,
often, without general problems.

Out of memory trying to attach 9 megabyte ZIP file

1999-10-27 Thread Ralf Buschmann

Hi all,

I'm running The Bat! v1.36 on German Windows 98 (first edition), PII-400
SCSI system with 128 megs RAM. At least 500 megs free on all local disk
drives.

I open a new message, write a few lines and then try to attach a ZIP
file of about 9 megabytes to that message. After some lengthy hard disk
activity (at least 30 seconds) a message box saying "Out of memory!"
comes up and the file is not being attached.

Is anybody able to replicate this? (I already sent a bug report)

Just a general comment about attaching files: attaching large files to
messages has always been awfully slow, there is definitely room for
major improvement. I especially wonder why it almost takes the same
amount of time again when you eventually save the message to Outbox
after attaching the large file.

Ralf.
