It means that the preceeding number represents messages that are on the server but which have not yet been sync'd locally. > Why does the number of mails in a folder keep changing up and down - > 2 then 0 then 2 then 0. This will happen at times as TB! sorts out the counts between sync operations. This is one piece of untidiness that I hope will eventually be sorted out. For the time being, we have to get accustomed to that. :/ > It seems to be 0 when I highlight the folder and then back to 2 when > I unhighlight it. Usually, my count goes to 1 when I select the folder and then if I leave it for a while and another sync operation is done, the count corrects itself to what it should be. Though the questions seem to be directed at Ken, I thought I'd answer them myself. > BTW are you a bit experienced with IMAP and The Bat Pretty much. I've been using it since January this year. I've seen it develop from being almost unusable to being much better as it currently is. I've also tried many other clients in the interim and have a good idea of how TB!'s IMAP works when compared to other clients. I can say without reservation that TB!'s is the most elegant and with the other TB! features makes for the best IMAP client available. The features just need to be ironed out, streamlined, tidied up and made to work reliably with the different servers. A lot has been done since I started using IMAP and I'm quite confident that things will continue to be improved. > - and if I have general IMAP Qs rather than Bat/IMAP specific Qs can > I chuck them at you? Have you the time/inclination? Me? Yes. I'll probably take a while at times but I'll always answer eventually. > I got my knuckles rapped yesterday! If you're referring to our little exchange a while back then I guess we haven't really met yet. Rapping your knuckles as you put it was not at all intended. My wish is to help and not rap knuckles. I have no desire whatsoever to rap knuckles. :) Ask specific questions and I'll likely be able to help. Ask what is IMAP and I'll likely give a URL or something. It's just an easier and more efficient way of answering as general a query as that. If it's already written elsewhere why write it again? <shrug> I guess if we were previously acquainted it'd be taken as intended but there's no prior acquaintance to form a basis for interpretation. If you were not referring to our exchange then please just forget and ignore the previous paragraphs which would automatically be moot. -- -=[ Allie ]=- :acm: List Moderator and fellow end-user PGPKeys: http://key.ac-martin.com Running The Bat! v2.12 Beta/8 on WinXP Pro (SP1)
