And then After getting my folders back I have the problem of all those bad filters... FIX please -- Best regards, tracer Using theBAT 1.54 Beta/44 mail to : [EMAIL PROTECTED] C.C.S.

Yes, but I didn't want to stress the fact that Calypso put everything in one file, but rather that it stored all settings, such as filter rules, mailbox layout, etc., on disk. The Bat stores its configuration *both* in the registry and on disk, and I don't understand why that approach is chosen. In fact, the data that The Bat stores in the registry is now of considerable size: when I export HKCU\Software\RIT\The Bat! to a ANSI .reg file, it is more than 50 kB. On the MSDN site and various other Windows development resources you will read that it is unwise to store large amounts of data in the registry. If you exceed a certain limit, such as more than a few kB of data, it is better to store the data in a file, and put the filename of that file in the registry. For The Bat it would really be enough to store only the path of your mail directory in the registry, and store all other settings in configuration files in that mail directory. I have heard before that there were some plans for storing rules and other settings in the mailbox directory, but never saw a followup.

Maybe it's *.wad system (something like *.tar) is unusable in TB! but it's *.cfg is qite good. console (command line - in TB! close function provided by menu navigator) You can configure lot of things in GUI. But if you are *gamer* you can edit your *.cfg file (plain text) and set anything from screen resolution, rendering mode to hotkeys. You even can bind some simple macros to keys :-). And all is stable and working for a lot of people! (much more then TB! users). So. all I want is : single plain text configuration files for each account. In plain text you can copy, find, find and replace by most of editors :-) Best regards, Sergey. -- _ Archives : http://tbbeta.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Wish List : https://bt.ritlabs.com/ BugTraq: https://bt.ritlabs.com/
Importing Messages from Outlook Express 6
Hi, Ever since Beta 39, I have been unable to import messages from Outlook Express 6. I am running TB on Windows ME, and TB cannot locate my Outlook Express folder. Okay, I am used to that. But I am not used to not being able to manually tell TB where the OE6 folder is (as I could do until Beta 40-Beta 45. I have confirmed this problem on Windows 2000.
