I'm trying out TB! and have a few questions.
1) In reviews I read glowing remarks about TB!'s speed. My experience
differs a bit from that. I don't so much notice the speed of checking
mail since it happens in the background. But other things seem to
take forever. I have it said to mark messages read after being
selected 0 seconds. However, on unread messages, it usually takes a
good 4-5 seconds for the message to be displayed, then marked as read.
If I want to delete the message, I have to wait that 4-5 seconds
before I am allowed to click on the trash icon. Deleting a single
message takes 5 seconds exactly (I've timed it, it's very consistent).
Deleting multiple selected messages takes even longer depending on how
many are selected.
My PC is not a wimp -- PIII 500, 128MB RAM, tons of free HD space.
NT4.0 workstation
Why would simple tasks be taking so long?
2) I'm also under the impression from my reading (and correct me if I
have misinterpreted something) that TB! should be less of a resource
hog than other email apps. I have been running Outlook 2000 and TB!
simultaneously for several hours now. Task Manager shows outlook
using 8852K memory, and TB! using 11028K. More of a hog than
Outlook?! Wow!
3) Threading -- I've been using TB! for several mailing lists I'm
subscribed to, and when I view threads by subject, rather than showing
the original message first and the replies underneath most recent
shown last, it is just the opposite. The most recent reply is shown
as the main message, with all other messages in the thread underneath
in reverse chronological order, with the original message listed last.
If I try threading my reference, it doesn't even keep all messages of
a thread together. What a mess!
Is it possible to have rational, logical threading with TB?
TIA for any and all help!
Dave
