Hi Tony and list, On Thursday, June 2, 2005 at 16:35:10 GMT +0100 (which was 17:35 where I live) Tony Boom wrote (at least in parts) and made these valuable points on the subject of "Reflections on IMAP & POP3 [Was Re: The most un-obvious things]":
> Thank you Mary but your in the minority. Eeeerrrhhh ... You forget the huge _silent_ majority, don't you? In your case I belong to that group, notwithstanding that you have my sympathy - I am _really_ sorry for you! I can see your problem as I had similar difficulties getting mulberry to work over here - I gave up on it. I never got filters to work (my own fault - didn't read the help and even didn't ask for help :-) ). Now I have only a couple of IMAP accounts again (for some casually tests) - all my other accounts remain ( for the time being) POP. Just now I don't have a simple solution for you - but has mulberry a possibility to manual trigger a filter to copy (!) a message to a local folder? I seem to recall that your reference-header problem was gone when you replied from a local folder instead of an IMAP folder? may be you could copy only single messages to a local folder and reply from there? I see two long range possibilities in either mulberry rewrites the incorrect reference header when sending a message or TB! silently deal with incorrect headers. (I don't think you have direct contact with your ISP's IMAP server programming crew). You have one guess what I prefer. It was once mentioned here and I learned it quite some time ago: The output of your program _must_ be correct _all_the_times, but you may never depend on correct input. So both teams have work to do :-) <eg>. > If I was using Incredimail until TB gets fixed I could understand it For heaven's sake - don't you dare!!! > while I'm waiting for TB's IMAP to be fixed. I'm not really sure that this fix is RIT's duty - may be a quick and dirty fix can do dealing with just the last entry in the references list? > I am not going to stop posting to this list until either 1 of 2 things > happen. > 1. The Bat gets it's IMAP up to an acceptable usable standard. It's the best up to now - and incorrect headers are (in fact) a problem of the server, not of the client). > 2. The Moderators do ban me from the list. I would never hope the would do something like that!!! -- Regards Michael powered by The BAT! 3.5.25, , and MyMacros 1.11a with usual problems of Windows XP Pro 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 2 ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 3.5.25 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/
