Is > this function available anywhere in The Bat, please? I used Eudora before coming to TB four years or so ago, and I know what you mean. The download limit, when exceeded by the mail, caused an icon to appear: "Download full message at next mailcheck". This is not available in TB. If I didn't click this icon for two days or so, the mail would be deleted from server and the icon would disappear. You have received replies of how you can work around this shortcoming in TB, but the Eudora approach is still better, IMHO. I have mentioned this wish a couple of times, but Ithink it wouldn't hurt if you send another official wish. > 2.

IIRC in the release version you go to Tools / Editor Preferences and then look for the editor font, which you can change to any fixed-width font on your computer. -- Cheers, Thomas.
