Hi Allie, First off, thanks for replying to my message. I've been watching this mailing list for a while, and it looks like one of the friendlier lists out there.

Thanks for pointing out to me about the free space needed for compressing, etc. I do receive some larger attachments (100-300k). I have plenty of space on my hard drive so this shouldn't be a problem. I guess my real concern was that The Bat might slow down when having to access a large message base. I imagined clicking on a folder on the left of the window only to have to wait for several seconds for The Bat to read the contents in order to display the list of messages on the right. But then, maybe I'm not understanding how things work in The Bat. Do you think that a message base that has gotten large from attachments, etc. would slow down The Bat? I'd be interested in anyone's thoughts on this. Thanks again Allie for your response. -- Doug Gannon [EMAIL PROTECTED] ________________________________________________ Current version is 1.62 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
