Hello BatPersons Recently Allie M said re IMAP accounts...
"then try deleting the local cache for the IMAP folders since there may be a problem with them. To do this, right click each IMAP folder and select Properties. The 'clear cache now' button is there on the Properties panel. DO NOT use the 'empty folder' option to do this. This will empty the IMAP folders contents *on the server*. " 'Smiled when I saw this. AM doubtless had some stupid person in mind: Me! ;-) Yes...I did this (used empty folder) when going thru mega-woes with TB!.... But!...I had a 'mirror' of the messages I wanted/needed in the IMAP folders in another mailer I use (ThunderBird). BTW, TB! incl my IMAP account therein is going well at present: no 'runtime' error messages, no 'error reading database' messages... Still not sure why all this happened...Possibly multifactorial (as most 'diseases' are...). Cleaning up Win 98 (running various maintenance procedures...which I do regularly anyway) may have been one part of the cure. Threatening WinDoze with going entirely over to Linux (Xandros) may also have had a salutary effect...;-) One serious point tho: when I was reinstalling TB! over and over again...this time ver 2.10.03...then ver 2.11.x... over and over again...I was using copies of the program in my downloads folder on my hard drive.... Then I downloaded a 'fresh' copy from Ritlabs...and the problems went away....Coincidence?? I am wondering if somehow the copies of the program on my hard rive somehow got corrupted...Just a thought... BTW...I am feeling very positive about IMAP in TB! at present.... IMAP in Thunderbird is perhaps simpler...and maybe more stable...but IMAP in TB is pretty good now as well methinks... and, in TB! fashion..very configurable... And TB seems to be about the fastest mailer I have ever used...and I have used a few ... -- Regards, Steve Love mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] 08:36 Sunday, 20 June 2004 Using The Bat! v2.11.02 (Protocol:usually IMAP) on Windows 98 4.10 Build 2222B ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.11.02 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
