Bug report
Mousewheel problems since some of betas: When message is opened in a separate window and I scroll message list with mousewheel, the message itself scrolls, too. That behaviour appears also in main screen sometimes (especially when scrolling log). And, of course, it is not a permanent behaviour, just flashy. -- Anton I.

Re[2]: The Bat deletes attachments
On Tue, 15 Jan 2002, Markus Gloede wrote: A message with an attachment exists twice in two separate folders (this not the problem but intentional), when one of it gets deleted (or moved?), the attachment gets lost. The account is set to store attachments in a separate folder and to delete messages when they are removed from the Trash. Could it be that when one copy of the message gets moved to the trash and deleted the Bat is not aware of a second copy existing and simply deletes the attachment? 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. How? Do you know how a filesystem knows how many names a file has got? It has a reference counter. In TB case it could be a simple hash. I personally dislike TB's habit to duplicate attachments when they're the same files and attached to different letters... It also could be solved and it could save much diskspace, at least in my case, it would save up to 50% of the mailbox size. -- Anton I.

Re[2]: Marking message as Read on server

Poor, but TB has a problem with this, really. I tried to use it, but it doesn't remember which messages it received and which not, and receives all of them, and not only new, etc. I had to reject this feature. -- Anton I.

Re[2]: Beta-28 having some problems?
-a- when moving 2 postings manually from one folder to an other one it takes about 40 sec. No, no noticable delay In my case I've noticed a (subjective) decrease in speed of about 50% Try checking your temp folders. The Bat! could create numerous temporary files there and this delay could be caused by this. There was an accident. -- Anton I.

Re: Possible to Disable Security question ?
Hi ! Using Beta 28 I created a new shortcut for marking all messages read. The only unnecessary thing left over is the box popping up asking Do you really want... This is useless for me handling 30+ Folders. Is it possible to shut the feature down ? In a good program, especially such as a mail client, every notorious question (simply put - every) should be carrying don't ask this again ckeckbox. Look at OE, for example, they realize that, and they are Microsoft! By the way, OE interface looks much smoother and cleaner than The Bat!'s. -- Anton I.

In a good program has an ... interesting implication ;) Why so? There are GOOD programs, and there are BAD programs :-) I agree, though; I hope that this sort of thing is coming up in version 2. Apart from that issue (warn once, then turn off if needed) there are some gross inconsistencies with warning and information popups. My favourite is Options | Preferences | Applications; the Associate ... button has no yes, I've done it popup but the ... Simple MAPI ... button below it has a yes, I've done it popup. Getting rid of this sort of inconsistency really requires someone to spend a long time going through the program systematically testing every control; it takes ages and is very boring ... but necessary. It takes much less time to project everything beforehand. Look at The Bat! developers. They are fixing numerous bugs which came from their projection mistaker. For example, there was a bug that message list settings were automatically saved in main window and were not saved in a separate window. If they'll invent some new message list somewhere - there'll be bugs and bugs again. They'll have to check everything. That's only a question of planning and projecting. OE looks and feels better because Microsoft has graphics artists and user interface designers everywhere and _pours_ money into usability testing. In addition, it controls the user interface standards so can always deem what's right with everyone rushing to catch up. Of course. But The Bat!'s usability suffers. Look suffers. It could be improved, and it should be improved. But it seems to me that developers think about implementing different notepads, expression calculations, they decided to develop yet another HTML control - a good time waste, and I'll not be surprised when I'll see clock and mp3 player in TB. I'm dissappointed. -- Anton I.

Re: RTViewer: Fonts question
In Options - Preferences - Viewer - Rich Text - Item: Regular Text the syles underline, italic and bold are grayed out. Simple question: Why? I had the same problem when there were troubles with tahoma other fonts, but the developers said that they have all the fonts in the list, and no problems. Thus, my bug appears in your case... -- Anton I.

Re[2]: Question to developers
The menu navigator is probably for the newbie or the intermediate user looking for a menu option in the sea of menu options. :-) I'm not sure, do you realize that a good program will never provide such a sea of option? These seas are usability flaws! One sea -- one bad usability. Thus I'm talking for usability tests and reconstruction... Just - to remove seas and to make these navigators useless. -- Anton I.

Re[2]: Backing up
Hello Alexander. At 5:32 PM on Tuesday, December 25, 2001 you wrote the following on the posted subject 'Backing up': Alexander Really - because I want write now impossible, Alexander with external tool - easy manual filter + rar Sorry, don't understand: is there a way to backup from the command line. If so, can you explain the steps to make this happen. Probably one way to do this is to create a 'back-up.bat' run that instead of bat.exe. Yeah really.

Re: Why large attachments (was: 1.54 Beta/19)
22.12.2001, Home 2. Why would you store *huge* peace of data using mail client (and specially *inside* its mail database), which is *not* optimized for it instead of using some database engine? Good question. BY THE WAY! People... Why not asking the Bat! developers to adapt Bat for working with, say, SQL databases? That would COMPLETELY solve the database performance question, as far as you'll be able to store your mail on a corporate Oracle 9i server running on a 32-processor Sun server. And it will be completely seamless!.. I consider it to be a great idea. -- Anton I.
