Yeah, yeah I know :), but there NO> are alot of people out there who aren't willing to do the minimum. It's possible to start the purge and compress stuff via a command line parameter (see the help file under advanced use) So you can set it up to be run once a day via the Windows Scheduler.

That's an insane interval, that's likely to cause trouble even if he was using a single instance of TB. But it's simple, tell him that that's the cause of his duplicate messages and that he should lower that frequency to no more than once every five minutes. If that's acceptable you could even create schedule within Windows Scheduler to download in that frequency. That way you eliminate the possibility that two instances of TB are polling the server simultaneously. NO> So it seems that IMAP is the way to go, but I'm not familiar with the NO> protocol. Any good tutorials you could suggest? I wouldn't know any tutorial, but from the times that I played with it I'd say that it isn't that hard. A lot of options you'd need/like to set depend on the used server/client combination. NO> Or is it still possible to download a copy of TB! that allows for NO> the client/server setup? Possibly, but you should realize that it won't be updated any longer and that it isn't bugfree. -- Groetjes, Roelof Pardon me, I'm a beta tester for a designer drug lab. http://www.voormijalleen.nl/ The Bat! 4.0.24.17 Windows Vista 6.0 Build 6001 Service Pack 1 3 pop3 accounts OTFE enabled Quad Core 2.4GHz 4 GB RAM
