It bugs me no end you need to switch the focus to the folder pane when marking all messages in a folder as read. It bugs me even more that there's an inane confirmation dialog every single time you do that, and equally enervating is the fact that if you also want to mark all messages in all the current folder's subfolders as read, you need to do that via a checkbox that does not remember its last-used state (checked / unchecked). Thus, I spend many minutes every day performing operations in The Bat! that should be intuitive and automatic. There may have been times when Ritlabs' motto "Save Your Time, Extend Your Life" may have rung true, but it sounds like an old-fashioned song from the previous century today. -- Yours, Alex. of Slovakia www.avenarius.sk [flying with The Bat! 2.12.00 under Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 2 amd athlon 2400 mhz & 704 mb ram] ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 3.5.36 | '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/
