backup and purge very old messages
Hi, I thought it would be quite simple, but I haven't found any solution to my problem yet. I searched through the online help, knowledge base and FAQs and through this list's archive, and I just cannot believe that nobody has the same problem. Perhaps I just did not look at the right spot or for the right term. I hope someone on this list can help me. I've been using TB for a very long time now, and apparently my different mail accounts managed by TB have grown rather large. I do backups every once in a while, so I'm not afraid of losing any data. The problem is, that startup and closing of TB takes several seconds and the message bases use up too much space on my hard drive. What I'd like to do now: # select a timeframe (e.g. 1 year) # backup all these messages # delete the messages from the message base The only method I have found so far, to delete old messages, is on a per-folder-basis. I have to select keep in message base for (days) in each folder and then do a purge (from the maintenance menu item). It would be really long winded to do that with about 130 folders. Do you have any suggestions? I used to think of Pine (or Horde Webmail), where the user is asked at the start of each month to automatically clean some folders. The problem is that I do not only want to delete these messages, but save them somewhere in order to access them later on. A big part of my life is saved in my email messages :) It would be great to be able to search through the archives (=backups) at a later stage.

Re: question from a newbie
Hallo Henry, Can't be done, not with a single setting. What helps is: account - properties - templates - reply - check Do not use from name for reply-to address That has to be set for every account, but that won't help you when you pick an address from your address book that has the name added. A macro in a template won't help you either, since you'd need the macro to be rather complex to skip names for messages with multiple recipients. Apart from that, templates need to be set for every account and you'd need to adapt your existing folder and address book templates. When you're only problem is with mailing lists, than you'd be done with the account setting(s). That worked perfectly! Thanks! Henry --- Henry L.

Re: question from a newbie
Dear Henry, I actually rather dislike replies to a person on a mailing list being addressed just to the list even more than the (pretty poor) habit of allowing TB's default of associating a person's name with the list address (shudder). I firmly believe that the method I (and many others here) use is the best of all worlds. You can see that I have replied to you directly and so can everyone else. Yet I still make it clear that the message addressed to you is not going to your email address. To each his own, I guess. When I check mailing list messages to see if someone has replied to me, I know by the subject line (that is, unless I forget what question I asked). Also, if a person is replying to me on the mailing list, I would hope he would begin the message by saying, Henry. I don't pay attention to the to line, unless I need to check to make sure that I am replying to the correct list or person (if it's a direct reply). But again, that's just my own preference. Thanks for the suggestions, though, and this sure is a useful list. With peace, Henry -- Henry L. Lefkowitz [EMAIL PROTECTED] When all that you feel are sharp teeth of an eel, that's a moray.

Tony Boom has very kindly given me instructions to do so, using Winrar as my zip program.

My question is, what wording, if any, do I need to change in the following file: See below: --- @Echo off Path C:\Program Files\WinRAR\WinRAR.exe Hopefully WinRAR is installed here on your PC so you shouldn't have to make any changes, otherwise you have to make appropriate changes. Also I run 7-Zip backup batch file from TB program directory. IIRC 7-Zip is a little picky on directory structure, and I'm not sure about WinRAR. So I am SWAG'ing it. I would try batch from Program directory C:\Program Files\TheBat2.0\batch.bat which would put registry in program directory to be latter compressed into backup file which would be a good thing. Otherwise you may have to run from root directory C:\batch.bat Echo Echo * !! Backing up The Bat registry entries !! * Echo Echo . if exist TBbckup1.reg del TBbckup2.reg Looks to see if registry backup exists. if exist TBbckup1.reg rename TBbckup1.reg TBbckup2.reg I would rem the above line out because you want registry backed up provided you are going to use the exact directory structure on new machine, otherwise I would just use TB backup and do a clean install with it on new machine. So just put rem in front of above 2 lines. start /w regedit /e TBbckup1.reg HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\RIT\The Bat! this backs up the registry to a file name TBbckup1.reg which is real important for setting up later on new machine, otherwise you will have to do a clean install. When you get the .reg file on the new machine all you have to do is double click to put it in the registry. Remember you may want to do a clean install with backup from TB backup utility anyway. I am no expert here but think the only limitation on TB backup utility is to have the same directory structure below the Mail directory, whereas batch file backup requires both the same structure for the program AND mail files. Also the other thing to note here is how are you going to transfer the backup files to the new PC. Are they hooked up on a network, or is your mail base very small. If small then you may get away with a CD or even a floppy. It all depends upon the size. echo. if not exist TBbckup1.reg echo Error! Something went wrong.

Re[2]: Transferring TB with batch file
Hello Greg, On Sunday, November 21, 2004, 10:10 PM, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I am trying to do a specific backup and restore using a batch file, so that I can transfer my current TB over to my new computer. Tony Boom has very kindly given me instructions to do so, using Winrar as my zip program. The only problem I can see is that my TB folder is called TheBat2.0 for some reason (as opposed to The Bat!), GS ^ GS So is your program files located in directory below? GS C:\Program Files\TheBat2.0 Yes. GS Is your mail directory located below the above directory so it would be GS in the directory below? GS C:\Program Files\TheBat2.0\MAIL GS I'll assume yes. Right you are. :-) I cannot change the name of the folder (believe me, I tried). GS If you were logged out of TB and have WinXP Pro on NTFS file system you GS are probably logged in as a limited user. Even if you were logged in as GS Admin user I don't know if you would want to change it because TB may GS not work afterwards. IIRC TB directory structure saved in other files GS possibly registry which may throw things out of wack. You lost me there, sorry. I do know that I couldn't change the name of the directory; lost all the data files and had to go back (using GoBack). My question is, what wording, if any, do I need to change in the following file: GS See below: --- @Echo off Path C:\Program Files\WinRAR\WinRAR.exe GS Hopefully WinRAR is installed here on your PC so you shouldn't have to GS make any changes, otherwise you have to make appropriate changes. I have WinRAR installed in both computers now. GS ... GS So I am SWAG'ing it. I would try batch from Program directory GS C:\Program Files\TheBat2.0\batch.bat which would put registry in GS program directory to be latter compressed into backup file which would GS be a good thing. Otherwise you may have to run from root directory GS C:\batch.bat Lost in space. Sorry to be so thick. :-( snip... if exist TBbckup1.reg rename TBbckup1.reg TBbckup2.reg GS I would rem the above line out because you want registry backed up GS provided you are going to use the exact directory structure on new GS machine, otherwise I would just use TB backup and do a clean install GS with it on new machine. So just put rem in front of above 2 lines. I tried the TB backup and restore and sadly it didn't work for me, which is why Tony's batch file transfer will be a godsend once I get it to work. ...By now you probably know I couldn't rem something if my life depended on it. start /w regedit /e TBbckup1.reg HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\RIT\The Bat! GS this backs up the registry to a file name TBbckup1.reg which is real GS important for setting up later on new machine, otherwise you will have GS to do a clean install. When you get the .reg file on the new machine GS all you have to do is double click to put it in the registry. All that worked very well; but the .reg file created a directory called The Bat! and I am trying to install TheBat2.0. Anyway I didn't get my mail program restored. GS Remember GS you may want to do a clean install with backup from TB backup utility GS anyway. I am no expert here but think the only limitation on TB backup GS utility is to have the same directory structure below the Mail GS directory, whereas batch file backup requires both the same structure GS for the program AND mail files. I don't know why TB's backup restore didn't work... maybe The Bat! vs TheBat2.0 again. GS Also the other thing to note here is how are you going to transfer the GS backup files to the new PC. Are they hooked up on a network, or is GS your mail base very small. If small then you may get away with a CD or GS even a floppy. It all depends upon the size. I copied the zip files to a CD, then opened it in my new computer. snip... if exist C:\email\TBBackup.rar del C:\email\TBBackup.rar GS deletes old WinRar file below the C:\email\ directory. If you are GS going to use this line you will have to make sure directory structure GS agrees, otherwise change to whatever you want. I think all is ok here. C:\Progra~1\WinRAR\WinRAR.exe a -u -as C:\email\TBBackup.rar C:\Program Files\The Bat! GS This is the actual backup. I would assume the switches in WinRAR will GS backup all files in the directory and below, and WinRar is located in GS the same directory. So if your Mail directory is located somewhere GS else you will have to make changes. I am going to assume your Mail GS directory is located below the program directory and your backup is GS going to be in the C:\email\ directory. This being the case GS then change the line to the following: GS C:\Progra~1\WinRAR\WinRAR.exe a -u -as GS C:\email\TBBackup.rar C:\Program Files\TheBat2.0 In the registry the program is called The Bat!. So should I still change it to TheBat2.0? I hope I have explained this properly. I have absolutely no experience with batch files or this type of procedure, so please make your

No, try re-written batch file below. If your on WinXP Pro or Win2k log in as an admin user. Open text editor and simply copy and paste, then save it in: C:\Program Files\TheBat2.0 directory as TBbkup.bat. Create a directory on the c drive as C:\email Open command box by Start|Run|type cmd hit enter. At prompt type the following: cd c:\program files\TheBat2.0 type TBbkup.bat and the batch should run WinRAR from the command line.

Install WinRar on 2nd PC. Now if the WinRAR switches are correct the compressed file should have the directory structure within it. So all you have to do is dump the TBBackup.rar onto a CD and de-compress it onto the new PC to the C:\Program Files\TheBat2.0 directory keeping the directory structure intact on the de-compression. On the new PC the TBbckup1.reg file should be in the program directory of C:\Program Files\TheBat2.0. Open Windows Explorer to the program directory and double click on TBbckup1.reg file. You should now be in business on the new PC with the exact same settings as the original. -- Best Regards, Greg Strong Using The Bat! v3.0.2.7 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 2 Current version is 3.0.1.33 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
