 Could it be that when one copy of the message gets moved to the trash and

how should TB know, how many copies of message with same attachment You
have? This problem can be solved for You, if You will have attachments in
message bodies - attachment will be in each msgbase, where You will have
such message.

 I agree to every word of this paragraph, including the last two. If
 you ask  me, they should fix the known bugs (it's a very long list by

 Half-implemented things klike the SmartPad should be taken out first,
 as it will cost time and effort to iron out those bugs for the new
 features, and 1.54 doesn't really need them. The new features are good
 (I love especially the msgid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] linking), but if
 they are buggy, they should be delayed until the next beta series.

 Fix the old bugs first, is my mantra. ;-)

Clearly there is disquiet among the beta testers :)

I've agreed to do the takes ages and is very boring run through this
weekend then produce a sort of über-bug report on all the
inconsistencies in the (existing) interface.

(There are a lot - as well as the problems noted with confirmation, or
lack of confirmation, there are many instances where controls,
particularly menu items, should be greyed out but are not).

SOT: TB! memory leaks (?) and pinning them down

2002-01-15 Thread Alastair Scott

Since I installed beta 28 on my Win95 machine its performance has been
deplorable; I'm beginning to think there's something wrong akin to the
notorious Win98SE memory problems which other people have mentioned.

Given that there seem to be literally hundreds of utilities for
enumerating processes, memory free and used etc. etc. in real time, can
anyone recommend a good one? (The one built into Win95 is feeble).

The Bat! - suggestions

2002-01-15 Thread Carsten Thönges

Hello The Bat! developers,

  I'm using The Bat! Version 1.54 Beta/28
  Serial Number B5770FAF
  under Windows NT 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 2.

  There are some features I would like to see in your program:

  There should be dialog boxes in TB! asking the user:


  | You haven't compressed your folders for n days/weeks. Do you want
  | to compress all your folders now?
  |
  |[Yes, compress them]   [No, don't compres now]


  | There are nnn TB!-temp-files older than nnn days in your temp
  | folder. Do you want to delete them now?
  |
  |   [Yes, delete them] [No, do nothing]

  These dialog boxes could pop up every week or so, when exiting or
  starting TB!.

Regards,
  Carsten Thönges

Well, but what behavior would you like when one of the two messages gets
deleted? A message is an entity, including the attachment, even if there
is a different message (different overall hash) with the exact same
attachment.

Hi Mrten,

 I agree with any dialog, which appears to user for compressing. I have
 big FAQ to users on pages and in help file, but still many and many
 users asks me, why is their msgbase too big.

M aren't users supposed to read the FM? :) perhaps message bases should be
M compressed by default at program shutdown (if it saves  100 K bytes or
M such, like Mozilla does).

An option.

M I disagree very strongly with any automaticly generated dialog that just
M pops up randomly (the user goes: help! what did I do?), or dialogs that
M need answering before closing TheBat (which effectively disables automatic
M shutdown of windows). If I say 'exit' I mean 'exit', don't bother me with
M unnecessary questions.

Yes. How about the following in your Preferences:

[x] Remind me of compressing all folders
[x] Every [__] days
[x] If folder wasn't compressed the last [__] days

[x] Check for unused temp-files every [___] days
[x] Warn only if file are older then [___] days

M compromise: i think that there should be an option in the account
M preferences regarding (automatic) compression. that way the user is
M pointed to the fact that there exists something like message-base
M compression.

You're right.

JW Very good idea.

Right after all bugs are fixed, the GUI revamped, and all sensible
features are implemented and working without bugs. Version 3.0 or 4.0
would be a good timing IMHO. ;-)
