Hello Gene, An archeological dig discovered that on Friday, November 9, 2001 at 06:09 GMT -0500, Gene Gaines [GG] typed the following:

For now, maybe you can use an external solution. You'll need to create a working folder for this to work reliably. You could use one of the Windows Temp folders, but I wouldn't recommend it. Next, create a batch file with the following: --- begin batch file --- @echo off "c:\Program Files\The Bat!\thebat.exe" /EXPORTu="<Account Name>";f="Trash";out="<temp dir>";UP;DEL del <temp dir>\*.msg --- end batch file --- You'll need to replace the parts in <> with the appropriate values. To do multiple accounts, just copy the second line and change the account name. Make sure the last line above is always the last line. Now when you want to empty the trash, you just need to run this batch file. Note: Batch files are from the DOS days, so they work well in Win9x/ME. I have no idea if/how they work in NT/2K/XP. -- Thanks for writing, Januk Aggarwal Using The Bat! 1.54/10 under Windows 98 4.10 Build 2222 A This almost blank page was intentional. -- ________________________________________________________ Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Vers: 1.53d FAQ : http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com
