I recently transferred my mail from Poco Mail to TheBat! I had not experienced this problem with mail before this exchange........... however there is more to this than this simple statement......if I may explain--------- When I heard about the wondrous things TheBat! could do with handling spam I decided to lift all my redirection email addresses which were currently going into an account at mailinator.com and have them once again bombard me with spam so that I could try and teach BayesIT how to recognise an avalanche of spam. 95% of my spam was going unseen but there were odd iems that kept getting through the net and as I like to tinker I thought I could get TheBat! to spamate them once and for all. So to tell the truth Poco Mail has never received any spam mail so I cannot say for certain that it did not have this problem before the installation. I have had my domain name for several years and as such I am have been found by up to 50 spammers a day so TheBat! gets a good workout :-) I have only lost one email that I did not want to lose all the rest that have been stripped have been crap mail. Bonafide mail does not seem to be affected at all. In fact I opened a hotmail account and sent myself a message to see if it was stripped and it was not so I suspect it is those emails that contain only a HREF to an external image and no content. And this leads me to suspect BayesIT is the guilty party with some internal flag to render this type of email harmless. -- Morpheus ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.0.1.33 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
