Hello The Bat! developers,
I'm using The Bat! Version 1.54 Beta/29
Serial Number F0060E1D
under Windows NT 4.0 Build 1381 Service Pack 6
and would like to report a bug
The bug description:
The % macros are not reliably expanded when using the Mass mailing
template.
Steps to reproduce the bug:
- Create an address book subgroup
- Populate entries with e-mail address, and fax number (it was just
somewhere to hold information from a database search)
- run the following QT
> %SUBJECT="XLFit license survey"
> Hi
> The computer identified as %abtofax was logged onto by you since Xmas,
> and the computer had a copy of XLFit on it. Please can you reply and
> confirm if you actually use XLFit on %abtofax.
.. etc
When this message was sent out (to 60 recipients) many of them
reported that the %abtofax field was occasionally blank. They forwarded their
messages to me and I can confirm that 1 or more of the %abtofax
replacements were omitted. Some people received the whole thing, other
the last one was missing, some had all of the references missing.
Mmmh - not a great performance? Is it a bug or is it usererror?
Example duff message
> Hi
> The computer identified as TP0041745 was logged onto by you since Xmas,
> and the computer had a copy of XLFit on it. Please can you reply and
> confirm if you actually use XLFit on
Note the last substitution is missing,
> Hi
> The computer identified as was logged onto by you since Xmas,
> and the computer had a copy of XLFit on it. Please can you reply and
> confirm if you actually use XLFit on .
Note BOTH substitutions are missing :-)
Regards,
Graham Foster
