If you notice a folder is too slow, you can just split the messages into two (or more) folders and the speed should be improved. Also, make sure you use the "Purge all folders" option regularly. When you delete a message, it is only marked as deleted. When you use the Compress option, the deleted messages are actually removed. The Purge option applies the limits you might have defined in the folder properties and then runs the compress option.

The general search tool can be accessed by pressing <F7>. It can do what you're asking. TB also offers a quick search tool. In the message list, just start typing the word/name you're looking for and the first match will be automatically selected. To move to the next match, just hit <CTRL>-<Enter>. This tool is limited to only the current folder. E> From one point I could more effectively handle treatment of E> attachments. How does the BAT handle attachments, especially problem E> attachments? TB can warn against or disable execution of predefined file-types.

TB has the nicest multiple account handling of any mail program I've seen. Each account is essentially completely separate from every other account, though you can filter from one account to another account's folders. -- Thanks for writing, Januk Aggarwal Using The Bat! 1.54 Beta/14 under Windows 98 4.10 Build 67766446 A This sentence lets you know this page was not a mistake. -- ________________________________________________________ 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
