Identifying Auto Responder
Fellow TB users, Second posting in case the group missed out earlier... I manage a announcement mailing list and quite often I get back auto responders / vacation mail from subscribers who are genuinely on vacation or have forgotten to turn off the option. These are meaningless mail and would like to delete them. The question is there some sting specific to Auto Responders / Vacation mails based on which I can create a filter. Thanks in advance. -- Best regards, Raj mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Have a wonderful weekend.

Access Violation in thebat.exe
Hi Strange problem. Have been using ver 1.54/10 for awhile. This is on a computer with Windows 2000. I left on the computer overnight with TB open, set to get mail every half hour. This morning when I got up I was greeted with a message box stating: Exception EAccessViolation in module thebat.exe at 00242C3F. Access violation at address 00653E83. Read of address 0018. What is happening is that everytime TB goes to get mail, it hangs on the last message and then I get the above message. I closed down my computer reopened and same problem. With that box up, I can still write this message and send it out. However, I can't get my mail as the connection centre hangs on the last message. I even went back to Ver. 1.54/9 and that didn't change. Any thoughts on how to fix this or what is going on? -- Best regards, Kitty >^,,^< http://www.netcom.com/~kittyv Using The Bat! 1.54/10 under Windows NT 5.0 Build 2195 -- Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Vers: 1.53d FAQ: http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com

Kludges?
I'm still learning about various ways to filter, and I understand "most" of it... but what does it mean by the term "kludges"? I've used filters in Outlook, Eudora, Pegasus, and every other mail program I've used, but never come across this term in this sense of a specific filtering element, like Subject, From, Reply-to, etc. at dictionary.com I found this: kludge or kluge (klj) n. Slang 1. A system, especially a computer system, that is constituted of poorly matched elements or of elements originally intended for other applications. 2.

The rule looks like: Rule tab: Name = Approved senders Detect by = Originator Signal strings = (empty) Rule is: Active = checked Manual only = unchecked Advanced tab: Action = Kill Detection method = None of strings should match Load signal strings from the file = checked filename box names an existing file (selected by browsing) The signal strings file is formatted like: v--column 1 string1 string2 ... etc When I used to put all the strings in the signal strings box on the Rule tab, the rule would mark for retrieval only messages from people matching entries the list.

Re: How do I filter against a date?

Create a filter that kills (or better yet, moves to a folder in a different account) all mail for that user with the additional condition that your user is in the address book group 'Bad users'. That's the killing part of your question. Now you create a rule that places the recipient of the mail in an address book group called 'Bad users' when the subject is something like 'This user account has been terminated!' while the sender is the administrator of the LAN. Now all you have to do is to create on the moment that the account has to be terminated a message is sent by the administrator to the expired user with your termination subject. This can be achieved by starting TB by the scheduler that's integrated within Windows. For the specifics search TB-help for /MAIL Mind you. I haven't tested this, for I'm not running the TB in server mode, nor do I intend to, because I'm already running a real server on my one-person LAN. If it works (and as as I can see it, it should) it has one drawback: The account isn't deleted, it's not getting any new mail, so any old mail can be read/collected until you've physically removed the account. Another option (not one that I'd prefer) is to set a filter to run an external program on a given filter condition. The program in case should be a batch-file or whatever that deletes or renames the account directory for the to be deleted account, so TB can't find the messagebase that belongs to that account. But since I'm not fully aware of the consequences of deleting TB's folders while TB is running... -- Groetjes, Roelof -- Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Vers: 1.53d FAQ: http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com
Filter not working
I have set up a filter called "outblaze" to filter out the spam that I get (outblaze.com is a big spam distributor): condition: outblaze is present in kludges -> move to folder "spam" (regular expressions checked, no other options touched) now just today I received 3 mails which _weren't_ filtered. They all have lines like this one in their respective headers: > Received: from pdc.sinogene.com.tw ([211.23.70.100]) > by spf5.us4.outblaze.com (8.11.0/8.11.0) with ESMTP id fA39V2K08323 > for <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Sat, 3 Nov 2001 09:31:03 GMT What could be the mistake?
