IMAP4 is the only protocol for the free accounts at that place.

First I need to know how to move the messages from the server to my PC. How do I do that? 2. What is the filter for all messages -- *.* ?? And I guess I delete the messages under the Action tab? 3. Then how to set a filter for further filtering the incoming messages to other folders/accounts? Or is #2 and #3 are just one filter? > The local folders would be either common folders, or folders within a > POP account. The folders you create in an IMAP account are actually > folders created on the server. The Bat created the default folders when the account was created. And I added a few. Must the folders in TheBat match exactly with the folders on the server? [I really don't want these other folders on the server -- even if they are all empty.] Separately, this IMAP4 account did not port over well when I switch over from v1.x to v2.x. So I had to delete the old and create a new account with IMAP4 protocol. And I copy over the messages.tbl and .tbi. However, v2 is not displaying all the messages. How can I get it to display messages in that account? -- Thanks in advance JM Using The Bat! 2.12.00 Under Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 1 ________________________________________________ Current version is 3.0.1.33 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
