You could set the future option 'compress at shutdown if it saves > [setting] bytes' to 'disabled' then. I don't mind just a bit waiting, knowing that it saves me some megabytes in my Inbox.

No dialog boxes, that's why I hinted to the Account Preferences. That is a dialog box that you conciously have to open. Users apparently don't RTFM, so the fact that 'compression' is available needs to be pointed out at a place the users comes to anyway (to set up his mail). Early on, I had trouble differentiating between 'purge' and 'compress' (at first glance, they seem to do the same thing), it was only when I took the trouble to explore a bit more that I discovered the folder-limiting options in their properties, and thus the usefulness of 'purge'. If you want to introduce a reminder/calender function in TheBat � la Outlook, I'd suggest you take a look at the wishlist :) *ducks* Mrten. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP 6.5i iQA/AwUBPEVNYktQMadp+KslEQLX1wCggja9QSHckZdRDCgh2tVNojjT1uIAn2z9 kA7HeUL2MxXfhYFU8HijO2w6 =TVW5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- _________________________________________________________ Archives : http://tbbeta.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Wish List : http://wish.thebat.dutaint.com
