-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello TBUL,
What are options available to manage the message database? After looking at the help file I found that the options are as follows: 1) "Keep for nn days" property of the folder, & 2) exceed the folder's maximum message count. I would think with making TB! available for use with news groups (i.e. via plugin) more options would exist. What if you belong to a mail list and use various threads as a resource and want to keep them available in a searchable message database. An example would be this very mail list, TBUL. I know I could keep all messages. Over time the message DB would get rather large. So if no other options exist, then you are forced to micro manage the message DB as you receive them by reading every message received and deleting those you feel unnecessary. If this is the only approach available, you still will continue to receive messages on a thread in the future that you have absolutely no interest. MORE WORK! Now I know I could write a macro that throws the additional threads into the trash, but isn't this some what more involved then would be necessary. Am I missing something on creating an easy macro to do this? How about an "Ignore" switch? It appears I could use the "Park" function to save a message after the time specified in the folder options, but again this requires reviewing all messages. MORE WORK! I did NOT notice a short cut on the "Message" menu which then requires use of the mouse. I'd rather stay with the keyboard. If one does exist, I do apologize for not looking at the web page, however how about putting all shortcuts which correspond to menu commands to the right on the menu. It is apparent some of you are using wide band connections and are on-line all the time. Well I'm not and still use a dial up so web pages are NOT an extension of TB!'s coded help. Maybe I'm a minority here with TB! users but if the actual statistics were looked at, I would think the majority of the market still uses dial up. I must be missing something here because there has to be an easier way. - - -- Best regards, Greg Strong Using TB! v1.60c Windows 98 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6-2 (MingW32) - GPGshell v2.28 Comment: Greg Strong (Email KeyID 0x78834C32) Fingerprint Comment: 25E5 9158 5DAB 9CBD 32D7 77A0 64AB 99C9 7883 4C32 iD8DBQE82rePZKuZyXiDTDIRAvlIAJ9vcMIOiGVBS4I2goxG+dKGu0L/ggCgqkNW SXkH7akm1I8NzJZbmwAf/c0= =c9kp -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ________________________________________________________ Current Ver: 1.60i FAQ : http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Bug Reports: https://bt.ritlabs.com
