Thomas Fernandez > Referring to Deborah's other question: No, it is not possible to pause the despatcher. +++++ Am I the only one who'd find this useful? The only one with dial-up who gets buckets of mail? Is there *any* way to process mail in batches, perhaps with filters?
If I have 1,600 messages and just want to process the first 200, I can watch carefully and stop it on the 200th message, but it stops the whole process. Then I have to wait for five or six minutes to load the whole list of the remaining 1,400 messages. And when it does, the messages I've ticked to not download and not delete are reset to delete, so I have to go through the whole list again--another ten minutes. Those are messages I want to check out on the server, either because they're spam and I want to report them before I delete them or because I'm not sure they are spam. Is there a way to tell TB not to change manual settings in the dispatcher list? Also, is there a way to set the dispatcher to show you if a particular e-mail has an attachment, any attachment? And perhaps the attachment's file extension? As I said before, file size is not reliable. If I could set the dispatcher to download, say, a range of messages and if I could tell if messages had attachments before downloading, I'd get 3.0. Otherwise, 2.0 does me just fine.
