The header fields you try to change have to be set as "Allow to edit
this field in the message editor". The relation between the message
editor and the macros for editing isn't really obvious, though. :-/
Unfortunately, you can't change this property for the predefined header
fields, IIRC.

If the fault is at your end, it is at mine, too. I tried every combination I could think of, not in a QT but in an AB template, and none worked. Also adding the header line to the Preferences first didn't change anything.

That didn't help. But the solution is to have "Allow to edit this field
in the message editor" checked. Then you can use something like:
%SETHEADER("X-Message-Flag","Get yourself a real email client. http://www.mutt.org/";)
I think it should be documented that you can only change header lines
via a template if you add them to the preferences and make them editable
with the message editor. That's not really intuitive.

Press the ALT key on your keyboard and use UP/DOWN to scroll in your messages. 2.) Use a mouse driver which has that function (I know that Microsoft's Intellimouse driver is capable of doing this and Logitech's Mouseware has something similar, although I don't use a Logitech product here). So, the possibilities are there, no need to add something to TB (and honestly, I wouldn't like to see this feature; it isn't really e-mail related and as such qualifies as bloat).

I don't think that most of the people on this list expect betas to be bug free. But after over half a year since the last release and plans to release 1.54 for Christmas, it is really surprising to see the number of bugs grow. It was this list that talked the developers out of releasing 1.54 with too many bugs. But I don't think a release came any nearer over the past few weeks. I agree, they added some really great features in the last betas. But I still see many rather big bugs which are not being fixed. I've been complaining about a bug since 1.53d and it is still not functional. Maybe the new interface is important for the sales.

I think the problem lies in the fact, that the message isn't saved when putting it in the outbox. I just checked, and I am asked the same thing when the message status is 'modified'.

Beta/7 and Norton AV
Hi beta testers, Since upgrading to Beta/7 TB! doesn't delete mail on the server anymore when using Norton AV as pop3 proxy to check for viruses. The connection is lost before deleting takes place and the messages remain on the server. When I change my settings so that Norton AV is bypassed, everything works fine. And really strange is that the mail dispatcher *does* delete messages on the server, with or without Norton AV. Can anybody confirm this problem? -- Regards, Lars The Bat! 1.52 Beta/7 on Windows NT 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 1 | Lars Geiger | <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>| | PGP Key: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?Subject=GetPublicKey> | -- __ Archives : <http://tbbeta.thebat.dutaint.com> Moderators : <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org

I don't know what will happen if TB! is running all the time, I just think that this is the way that I'd realize such a feature myself: Check at startup the current date and compare it with the birthdays in the AB. So I tried it with restarting TB! and that worked fine. But you will have to test it yourself over a longer period of time and see if they added a periodical check. I just changed my time to 04/03/2001, 23:59, with a birthday in my AB on 04/04/2001 and nothing happened when the clock reached 00:00. *shrug* Sorry, you will have to find it out yourself, my machine usually isn't on all the time. -- Regards, Lars The Bat! 1.52 Beta/3 on Windows NT 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 1 ____ |Lars Geiger | <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>| | PGP Key: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?Subject=GetPublicKey> | -- __ Archives : <http://tbbeta.thebat.dutaint.com> Moderators : <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org

For me the new connection centre doesn't work very well because I have set it to show up automatically (as not to waste space on the desktop) and I have a fast connection here, so all I really see is the window of the connection centre appear and then disappear again. And as I'm having several accounts which are all checked for new mail at the same time, I cannot read more than the communication log for more than one account (even that is hard sometimes). So what I'd really like to see is an option which will cause the connection centre window to remain open for some time even after the tasks are finished. That time could be user-definable (nice) or some default, I think 20 s would be enough to read the communication log. Does that sound reasonable to anyone (except myself :-) or I'm a just day-dreaming? -- Regards, Lars The Bat! 1.52 Beta/3 on Windows NT 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 1 ____ |Lars Geiger | <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>| | PGP Key: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?Subject=GetPublicKey> | -- __ Archives : <http://tbbeta.thebat.dutaint.com> Moderators : <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org

It's not quite a bug, just some strange misbehaviour. It seems this macro is executed when creating the message and when entering the message body. So, right after the creation of the message the macro states which is correct. If you add an attachment now and place your cursor in the body afterwards, this returns the correct attachment(s). But if you add attachment(s) when the cursor is in the body, this macro isn't executed again, so it still states . -- Regards, Lars The Bat! 1.49c on Windows NT 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 1 ____ |Lars Geiger | <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>| | PGP Key: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?Subject=GetPublicKey> | -- -- View the TBBETA archive at http://tbbeta.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double-click HERE: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To Unsubscribe from TBBETA, double-click HERE: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org
