The Bat! - suggestions - improved search option
hello, I tried to send this suggestion to [EMAIL PROTECTED], but the server rejected the mail. So I post it here for discussion: I´d like to see an improved search-option for messages, above all multiple search-fields with options like includes ..., not includes and a linkage between the fields like and, or. The search option in Eudora is a good example. In my opinion, if you save lots of information in your email-archive, a simple search option is not sufficient. best wishes Carten Thinius Current version is 1.62r | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Re: The Bat! - suggestions - improved search option
Hello Carsten, I agree with you... sometimes i feel i need something like the following: - search all mails with subject project and my email is in cc field or - if my email is in the cc field, filter it to another folder but current search/filter (i suppose their matching algorithm are shared) cannot do such a multiple/precise match. (thebat support once gave me some dirty trick to use reg-ex to match the whole text, but it sometimes is inaccurate) i really hope a better search dialog, with multiple conditions, etc. (Using The Bat! v1.63 Beta/11 on Windows NT Clone 5.2 Build 3790 ) -- Best regards, Samsonmailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Wednesday, August 20, 2003, 11:55:54 PM, you wrote: CT hello, CT I tried to send this suggestion to [EMAIL PROTECTED], but the server CT rejected the mail.

Re: The Bat! - suggestions - improved search option
Hello Mark, And in either case, is it possible to escape the literal character? \~ or \! or something? By 'escape' do you mean match the literal character? If yes, then the answer is yes and much more by using regular expressions which is selected on the 'Advanced' tab.
