Hello all, Sorry for x-posting to TBUDL and TBBeta (although not a beta issue), but I think it may be of interest to all, or in case anyone has experienced some similar.
A couple of days ago I started to get this "message not properly addressed" error when trying to send a msg. I would get it when trying to send to any address and from any account (all POP). I could receive, although downloading was noticeably slow. When clicking send from Editor window, it took a few 'moments' to close. Then the Connection Centre would pop-up saying "Composing.." (for 1, maybe 2, seconds) and then I would get the error. As I said above, trying to send to any address and from any of my accounts. I re-started TB several times, re-booted my system, but I would still get the error. I 'Repaired' TB installation and nothing. Uninstalled completely, 'cleaned' the Registry, did a fresh install and... problem still there. Since I could not send mail, the only way to ask for help was opening a Support ticket [TID#75335] but, so far, I have not heard back from them. Slow reception and the error (after re-installing, etc.) when sending made me think that maybe there was something "external" affecting TB. I don't know why but I decided to look in TEMP directory (C:\Users\Miguel\AppData\Local\Temp) where I found well over 100,000 (yes, well over one hundred thousand) 'batXXXX.tmp' 0 byte files. All from the same day and with time stamps within 5 minutes (16:46 to 16:52). I decided to delete them all, and 'voila', I could again send email with no problem and downloading was again as fast as usual. The questions now are: 1.- What in the world made The Bat! create such an amount of 0 byte .tmp files in 5 minutes? 2.- Why this amount of files made TB generate the error of message "not being properly addressed"?
