Guten Morgen,
>> Starting TheBat here takes about 20 seconds. That I can live with. M> With the /nologo option here it is at most 5 seconds. Maybe the difference can be attributed to the fact that my mailbase resides on a network drive. Whatever, that really isn't my problem. >> Closing TheBat only apears to be almost instantanious, the thebat.exe >> process lingers around and is writing megabytes on megabytes to the >> disk. Over a 100 MBit LAN, this takes about one to three minutes, over >> a WLAN it takes considerably more time. M> Are you talking about IMAP? I only use POP. Yes, I use IMAP (on most accounts, that is). I also have a few "common" and "virtual" folders. But why should they be updated on the exit of TheBat instead of on the startup? M> Although I keep TB open all day long, I can close TB and as soon as it M> disappears I can go to TB's shortcut on desktop, double click on it and M> TB will start again. Ok. I'm experiencing very different times. On my laptop that is connected via WLAN (11 MBit)it usually takes well above five minutes. If I try shutdown Windows the "not responding" window is coming up. I usually ignore it, let it just sit there and after the thebat.exe process terminates the shutdown continues. Again, this is well above one minute even on 100 MBit LAN. If I close TheBat without closing Windows I can see the process murking around until after a few minutes the "BayesIt closing" window comes up. That is a signal that thebat.exe is also finished and I can start TheBat once more, if I so desire. -- MfG, Alto
