We have to be patient. They're working on it. :) The question is whether or not you can make the current incarnation workable for your needs. The manage IMAP folders panel has been a source of many AV's. I prepare for them when I'm going to work with it. :/ AM>> Are you using BayesIt with an IMAP account?

TB!'s documentation isn't exhaustive and the fact that this has not been mentioned doesn't mean it's not a problem. There are many POP features that don't work with IMAP. TB! was originally mainly a POP client with all features built around POP. Major IMAP reworking was undertaken and getting all the non-protocol specific features to work with IMAP has been a challenge. Quite a bit has happened since I first started using IMAP. > (but I had seen it coming...especially since I've now read 5-10 > entries on this mailinglist about limitations/bugs about filtering > and IMAP.... Filtering is one of the big ones..

Exactly!! > but i still would like if bayesit could be activated ;) I understand. However, I think Bayesit needs good filtering to work, doesn't it? > I've configured it as you said (getting only one access violation in > the process ;( ) Lucky you. ;) > ....and it seems somewhat faster, but now there seem to be a big > mismatch between the unread/total stats....oh well - i'll will > probably learn to live with them :( > Like what does Unread: 5 <*> Total: 7 <*> means ? This means that there are 5 unread messages in that IMAP folder and none of them are cached locally. The same goes for the Total. > And Unread: 55 <56> (364) Total: 5.655 <5.656> (6.872) Unread - 55 sync'd to local cache but 56 are on the server. If the numbers are equal then you'll only see one. (364) usually represents the total count including subfolders. It's because you're syncing only on demand that you're now seeing these figures. -- -=[ Allie ]=- (List Moderator and fellow end-user) PGPKeys: http://key.ac-martin.com Running The Bat! v2.11.02 on WinXP Pro (SP1) ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.11.02 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
