I see that you still use Eudora, so I guess that you have not been
able to send and recieve with The Bat! yet?
Have you been able to make an account? In that case you right click on
the account name, choose Properties and click on Transport in the menu
that appears. Check that you have correct settings for smpt-server,
pop-server, username and password.
If you do not have an account yet: make one by selecting Account New
on the meny bar and follow the instructions.
Then check Options, Network and administration to select connection
via local network or via Windows Dial Up.
Then do you see the blue box with an arrow pointing in. Use this to
collect mail and use the green box to send mail if you have put mail
in the que.
The keybord combination Alt-F2 make both at the sam time.
If you still do have trouble, please tell us the more specific nature
of it.
One of the great features of The Bat! is the folder system and
filtering. I have made a special folder for this mailing list and made
a filter to direct all messages into that folder. This is quite
necessary to free up the inbox for more private messages.
Select Account, Sorting Office/Filters, Incoming Mail, New. Enter
TBUDL in the open space for filtering strings and click the tree icon
besides the field for Move messages. Press new to make a new folder,
name it TBUDL and select this.
If you want to quit the list altogether, there is a link at the bottom
of this message, but think twice. Though the traffic is a bit
overwhelming, here are meny very helpful and knowledgable persons here
that will help you to make The Bat! work very well for you.
