oh well as long as someone is working on it i supose it will get fixed some time. I have got a little used to the linux/open source world where bugs DO get fixed quickly (generally), and anyone can have a go at fixing a bug because they have the source code. Unfortunately I have to use MS Windows for legacy purposes. We see quite a few staff through our small office (including temps etc) and presenting them with Star Office when they are used to ms word would be too steep. SO I have to use an Win based emailer, I am pretty sold on the Bat so far!! -----Original Message----- From: Homesick Mac [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, 9 February 2000 10:55 To: TheBat list Subject: Was: Filtering not working - if the bugs don't get fixed, whats the point of paying for it? - my answer Tuesday, February 08, 2000 Thank you John, Tracer, Allie & Nick for your imput on the "Filtering" issue, I've fixed it - I made it easier for little Bat and just left the senders' email address as the main string in all my filters, so far so good, everything ends up in the right place now. On this "if the bugs don't get fixed, whats the point of paying for it?" issue Nick wrote about, well I don't know, IMHO, and I'm not trying to say that Nick was "picky" here, eah, well, I personaly don't mind buggs in programs I've paid for. I've been following The_Bat's development over the years and I've finaly bought it when I decided to use it as my main email client. I love the interface, the folder structure, the templates... I've got Outlook 2000 for free from my work (the licence bought allows employees to install it at home as well ), I've tested many other email clients but I just fell in love with TB and that's it. And I don't mind buggs, especialy if there is a smart way around them, hey, you guys helped me to solve the problem, and that's what counts. Of course I'm very excited about the next version, but I guess there will be buggs in it as well. Oh, well, why be perfect ?
