Division by Zero error

2022-02-28 Thread Mike Lumsden
    Hello Alex.

New information on the calender app in The Bat and the divide by zero errors. I 
have been playing around with this over the weekend with no success until 
tonight. I have an appointment tomorrow so decided to add it to the calender to 
see if I had found a way around the error. I input everything as normal just as 
I had been doing since day one and the only change I made was with the notify 
me before and I chose 1 hour instead of 1 day and walla it entered. I have an 
appointment on the 9th so I input that and wanted to have a reminder a day in 
advance and no chance divide by zero but if I put 1 hour before it accepts it 
no questions. The error is in the length of time before an appointment anything 
a day and over it has divide by zero anything less than 24 hours, wonder if I 
can get away with 24 hours and not 1 day? OK, I put in 24 hours and it accepted 
it without question. The error is in the day format somewhere mate I have been 
through all my configuration files and can't find anything so I suspect it is 
in the actual calendar part of the program.
 
I hope this is of some help for you to trace the error which is still there if 
I try to enter a day it goes divide by zero.  I can enter 24 hours and it's 
just fine I wonder if it has anything to do with the times of my appointments 
being sort of mid morning to mid day then asking it to notify me 1 day in 
advance? I will leave it with you Alex, my wife's laptop is exactly the same, 
different hardware and a lot of different software but the same divide by zero 
issues, I will try her laptop in the morning she is using it at present but I 
suspect it will be the same.

Best regards

   It doesn't copy the highlighted text from the message being replied to into the reply message.
   
  Or this is some other effect after having restarted my PC this morning.
 
  Neither the templates for reply and new message are applied. That's why this message is so bare.




I can confirm lost all templates and replied to text on the 8.7.0.12 x64 I have reverted to 8.7.0.11 x64 which is fine.

That does fix it, but, I believe this to be a TB! bug.

Neither SSCE nor Hunspell were working.  Nothing was being
marked as misspelt.  So, I tried reinstalling The Bat! v3.99.29 MSI
and UnRARed v4.0.14.2 over it.  Now, spell checking seems to work. I
will have to investigate further though.

EJM I continue to experience some sort of memory leak with the current

EJM moves from 57, 232 K to just under 180, 000K.  Even when I minimize the

EJM Can anyone verify this problem?  By the way, I have not plug ins
EJM installed and I'm running Windows XP Pro latest update on a dual core
EJM machine with 4 Gigs of memory

EJM Jerry

I just came back to TB! from Thunderbird (after a year) to see how
things are going. I keep notes from all my software trials and
tribulations. TB! used to use about 24K maximized and would drop well
below 10K minimized before. Now, I get 30K on opening, it stays at 30K
minimized. After a few hours I am over 50K. I am using the same
computer, same e-mail accounts as I was a year ago. The only
difference is that this is a clean reinstall of XP SP 2. I believe
something has changed with TB!

Since I began this e-mail, TB! has gone from 30K to 58K. Sigh
and IMAP still sucks too Every time I give TB! a chance, it
disappoints. :(

 Hello Gleason,

Sunday, October 14, 2007, 3:19:49 PM, you scribbled:

GP Yes, as I said a while ago, the success of Tbird is one of the issues
GP that Rit must deal with very soon.  And I think glitter is very much a
GP part of Tbird's appeal.

TBird is not glitter. It is a barebones, functional IMAP/POP client.
You can glitz it up with themes and extensions, but the program itself
is simple, it works and the average person can slide right into it.
That is the appeal, the learning curve is not steep. Glitter, now your
talking Pocomail. TB! and Pocomail share the same problem... to many
moving parts for the average computer user, too many buttons and
options to play with (and screw up). Joe Normal just wants to send and
receive e-mail comfortably and reliably, that's it. TB! is aimed at a
different user group than TBird. TB!'s market is (or should be) the
corporate market, small/home business user and any professional that
requires the advanced features TB! has to offer. TBird, according to
it's devs (I'll find a quote when I have a chance) was intended to
compete with OE for the average home user who just needs a basic
e-mail client.

The folks TB! is losing, I believe, are those who realize that it
is too much for them. There are more features than need or care to
figure out. They can go to TBird, set it up in seconds, hit send/receive,
reply to Mom and they're done 'til tomorrow, why pay for TB! when TBird
is free and much simpler?

GP Actually, TB is not going to be simple, and people who have a lot of
GP special email needs don't want it to be.  The problem is that this is
GP a rather small part of the overall email client market, and there are
GP 10-15 other clients all aiming for that same group.  TB really needs
GP to stand out.  Appearance is an important part of that.

See above, TB! should not be aiming for the same user group that TBird
does. In your own words people who have special e-mail needs...,
that is TB!'s niche, not Ma and Pa Kettle who get 1 or 2 e-mails a day
from the kids. Let Mozilla and MS fight over them...

Unfortunately for RITLabs, (other than the fact that they have a crappy
web site), they do not seem to be marketing towards the commercial
sector very heavily. I know my company execs love the TB!/Voyager
combo, however, reliability on the IMAP side makes it a nonstarter. We
use our own IMAP server with WebDAV for shared info. For us, it is a
lot more flexible than Exchange for the road warrior

 Hello Gleason,

GP I remember a techie friend in the early days of Firebird saying that
GP it was superior because it introduced tabs.  He didn't seem to think
GP that Netscape had tabs.  Never heard of Opera.  So what was the
GP secret?  How did Moz get noticed?

Marketing, ok, Moz calls it evangelism. I remember when Moz plunked
down $130K for a full page advert in the Wall Street Journal. That and
some of the devs had contributed techie articles espousing the virtues of
Firefox over IE in the lead-up to the advert and official FF release.
Of course you can purchase shirts, hats and cups plastered with
getfirefox.com. They had a high profile, commercial marketing strategy
combined with enlisting the user in a grass roots campaign. Very
effective I think. While they haven't and won't catch IE, it enough
that they left Opera in the dust. If you believe stats, Opera's market
share has remained unchanged since 2004, but FF is inching up slowly.

RITLabs could use a marketing expert to define it's products, shape an
intended user base and sell the product. Right now it seems that TB!
is used by those who are referred by a current user or bumble into it
on a Google search. And they seem content with that for some reason.

 Anyone experiencing a large delay in sending messages?
 I have noticed this with the last 3 or 4 beta builds.

Did some comparisons between Thunderbird and TB!. I see TB! is slow on SMTP, it 
more pronounced on my IMAP (presumably due to copying the mail to the Sent 
folder and the frozrn queue issue). .

 I have been noticing recently that IMAP processes have been freezing
 in  the  queue  and  do not ever start up again.

I rarely use the connection center, so I can't speak to what you are seeing, 
but I can say that there is a problem with IMAP (BIG surprise there :( ). I had 
TB! open for 5 hours, it showed no new messages in any IMAP folders. I have TB! 
set to synchronize certain folders every minute or two. I opened Thunderbird 
and I had many new messages. I manually checked mail with TB! and synchronized, 
no new messages. I restarted TB!, and it showed new messages. Oh yeah, and the 
counters are still completely messed up, TB! just can't count or add

As an IMAP client, I would be very hesitant to use TB! for critical e-mail 
communications. I always keep Thunderbird available and check it periodically 
to see if TB! is missing something. Really sucks I have to keep two e-mail 
apps, because I can't trust one...

Yes, it has gotten worse recently. I subscribe to tbbeta on IMAP for the same 
reason you do. I think you are right, the freezing is connected to the failure 
to synchronize properly. I am wondering if TB!'s implementation of the IDLE 
command is good. I understand the complexity of IMAP implementation vs POP, but 
the counters issue has been going on for how long We won't even get into

Ditto. I have a 16Mb broadband connection. I copied 2000 e-mails to my

I also noted with TBird that the message counters for the folder I am

messages are copied over, I see the message list, but no message
counters appear until I starting marking mail read.

I do not have the duplicate problem.

It also appears IDLE may not work properly. When I have new mail in my
IMAP inbox, TB! always showed unread mail in the box (bold folder
name, message counter shows unread), now that only functions intermittently.

I am beginning to have serious doubts about the future of IMAP on TB!, I
really don't think it will happen... ever. Every IMAP client I can

clients that don't work too hot (TB!, Poco, Courier, Pegasus, Eudora), all
started life as a POP client, IMAP was added later and it's broke in

V I  read  the  BT, and I started to think about it, just before I wrote
V that Confirmed.

V There  is  an event scheduled. At the start, you make a backup, at the
V finish, you generate the email. But that email will ALWAYS say that it
V was  successful,  as  you  made  the  template  saying  that  it was a
V successful backup, right?

V So,  I  think  the real solution somewhere would be the possibility to
V evaluate the result of the start action. Because now you set a mail to
V be  set  when  the  EVENT  FINISHED,  not  when  the  START ACTION WAS
V SUCCESSFUL.

V Do you see the difference?

V So, for a 2nd thought, it is not really a bug, as the faulty email is
V not because of bad evaluation (my mistake), but the lack of
V evaluation...

V Maybe, there should be some:

V 'Run this action if the Start action was successful...' between the
V start and the finish actions...

I agree, there are two different conditions. Unfortunately the
success/failure of the scheduled function is irrelevant.

I agree this may not be an actual bug, but I believe it is bad form.
Imagine thinking all of your e-mails have been backed up for the last
month, then one day you need them. Or the maintenance that wasn't
really done until one day your mail file becomes inaccessible.

- I've given up on TB! IMAP for now since it let me down again when put

happening for IMAP, I'll stick with apps that work all the time. 


It's a core issue. At it's core, TB! is supposed to be a fully 
functional e-mail client, ie send/receive mail by POP, POPS, SMTP, IMAP 
and IMAPS; period, dot, end of mission statement. Everything else is 
ancillary to this function and is not a core feature. What we have here 
is a rotten core with a bunch cool features hung on it. That just won't 
do, it is called an e-mail client for a reason, but it doesn't do that 
job. But, by goodness, we can filter and file what we can't receive... 
Makes sense to me... :(


I said it before and I'll say it again... Using an e-mail client 
requires the end-user to completely trust the developer to deliver a 
product that will allow that end-user to reliably communicate without 
the client losing, eating, ignoring etc. e-mails. To me, that trust is 
gone and will not easily be replaced. I no longer recommend TB! to 
others and I have had a few business clients inquire about TB!; the 
answer is no, it is not to be trusted with critical business

don't have to import your message base at all!  It's already there
on the server.


True, but if you need to migrate from TB! to TBird it is very, very 
easy, even if you don't have IMAP... 
http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=16245



Note that Thunderbird DOES have much less features than The Bat, but I
hardly use most of the strange cruft RIT has been adding since 2.x.
And with the nice plugin system of mozilla.org you can download quite
a number of extensions, which might provide the function(s) you need.
 In my case that's mostly the PGP/GPG support.


That was the intended purpose of TBird, to make a an e-mail client with 
a solid, functioning core, then let the user determine what widgets to 
hang on it.



PS: I do follow this list still, and occasionally download one of the
beta's


Not anymore, I'm done...

flawlessly with my Fastmail IMAP, TB! is senile and geriatric.



  Mulberry runs rings around TB! when the bandwidth is

borderline. TB! becomes usable with high available bandwidth


I have inflicted high line noise and throttled my bandwidth on both my 
broadband connects. Mulberry works great, Thunderbird works, but 
slightly degraded and TB! packs it in and goes home despite fiddling 
with precise counters, number of connects etc. BTW, why are these 
(counters etc.) a feature in TB! anyways? Every other IMAP client ticks 
along fine without these options, or are they a way for the user to 
overcome shortcomings in the client instead of actually fixing the 
blasted thing? Just thinking out loud


I can't think of ANY version of TB! where its performance has been 
faster than Mulberry by a wide margin.


And don't forget accurate, I've never seen Mulberry display the wrong 
message body, forget how to count etc etc

Chinese take-out

Hello TBBETA,

I use the scheduler to do back-ups, compress folders etc. I haven't
changed anything in awhile so I don't know when this started. I go to
the scheduler, right click on a scheduled function, select properties
and then click on the Actions tab. In the box where it is supposed to
tell what action is being taken, it has Chinese characters and blanks.
There are two action boxes, it happens in both of them.

I have noted that bug too, however in this case I had no scroll bar. Tried

scroll bar mysteriously reappeared and I could scroll and see all my

there also. I shut down TB! and restarted it, the scroll bars were

No, because it displays remote images if I want it.


Yes, and my car can go up on the sidewalk if I want it. Not the cars 
fault, just the loose nut behind the wheel.


Allowing images to be viewed in TheBat! makes TB! no less secure. Again, 
it is the loose nut behind the keyboard. Using your methodology of 
protecting the user, every web browser should not display ads, images, 
links etc, etc because they may be harmful to the uneducated. My primary 
e-mail client is now Thunderbird, why?, one reason is because it allows 
me the option to view images (that and ^%$# IMAP). I have banking 
institutions and businesses that send e-mail and statements in HTML with 
images that provide information. This is the way they do business, most 
do not have a plain text option or multi-part capability. I am able to 
white list these using the address book. This does not make the client 
less secure. I make the choice to allow/disallow images, not Thunderbird 
and not Mozilla. Same with TheBat!, if some yo-yo allows the wrong 
images and gets trashed, that is not TB! or RIT's fault, it is the loose 
nut behind the keyboard, once burned twice shy.
Heck, right now I can receive a SPAM e-mail in TB! and click away on all 
the links in it, doing probably more damage than viewing images in 
another more docile e-mail. Maybe we should lock down URL's too, and 
while we're at it let's just strip that potentially nasty HTML crap 
right out of TB! and lean it up a bit.

The capability to view images doe not create a security hole. What the

This is the way they do business, most do not have a plain text

Because their customers demanded it. They want the glitz, the fluff
and the eye-candy without regard to security.


I highly doubt people have called their financial institutions demanding 
HTML mail. It is simply a part of the business model in corporate 
America. In my work, I have approached businesses about killing the HTML 
and embedded images or at a minimum, using a plain text option. The 
answer is a flat no, it is not competitive. They consider it 
advertising and a matter of keeping up with the Joneses. I have a Web 
designer friend who gets paid 6 figures to design HTML mail 
(newsletters, statements etc) for a large financial institution, they 
take this stuff seriously.



I am able to white list these using the address book.


So I send you an e-mail using the e-mail address of your bank
referencing an image on my server. Now what?


Given the number of banks in the US, someone would have to specifically 
know what bank I am using and know the specific e-mail address for the 
e-mail that is being sent. One of my banks uses no less than 8 e-mail 
addresses (one for my savings statement, one for checking etc). Add that 
to complexity of munging the e-mail address and duplicating the e-mail 
itself plus the actual return value of all this work = long shot. That 
and my firewall blocks Port 80 in my mail clients, I have to 
specifically authorize a connection to a Web address. It's a pain, but 
it's necessary.



and while we're at it let's just strip that potentially nasty HTML
crap right out of TB! and lean it up a bit.


That's why RITLabs wrote their own HTML rendering engine. So now they
spend time making sure they can render everyone's HTML markup with
less time spent on fixing IMAP and other bugs. People wanted HTML
e-mail, but at least true to their word, RITLabs did their best to
ensure the integrity and security of TB.


I was being sarcastic, but since you brought it up. Yes, RIT Labs (and 
Poco Systems) did the right thing and reinvented the wheel. This is 
double duty, creating an e-mail client and Web browser/HTML editor at 
the same time. It is a lot of work for the few, but it does keep the 
rest of safe from that flawed IE engine.

Re: CANNOT Repair My IMAP Database (Was: Re: How Do I Repair My IMAP database?)

2005-07-26 Thread Mike Rourke
TBBETA  Keith,
 

:snip:  No way could I get to a menu to disconnect from the server, nor
could I repair the database. :snip:

You have to click on the IMAP account, click on the Account --
IMAP Commands --, Disconnect from Server **before** you run folder
maintenance, otherwise TB! will interact with the server, possibly
trying to read/write to the very file it is trying to fix. If this
happens, it may corrupt the file even further or corrupt a previously
undamaged folder. After the folder maintenance is complete, you can go
back to Accounts -- IMAP Commands -- Connect to Server.

:snip:  As soon as I started up the new version, I started getting the
error popups (this time for 0588F103.TBB). As before, I was asked
whether I wanted to repair the message base :snip:

I use IMAP (Fastmail) without problems. As long as you leave your
e-mails on the IMAP server as intended, you can right click on the
folder, Properties and clear the cache. I actually have the Clear
cache on exit checked for my high traffic folders and I make sure I
dump the cache and rebuild it at least every couple of days or so. An
e-mail program that utilizes a local cache for IMAP (POP too for that
matter) folders will always corrupt eventually with a high
population/high traffic folder due to file fragmentation. The only
thing that is corrupt is the local cache on the hard drive, not the
files sitting on the IMAP server (although it is possible). It is
always a good idea to break down your e-mail folders on the IMAP
server into smaller archive folders, grouping by year, month, whatever
works for you.

:snip:  For all other folders, it said Messages recovered: x, damaged
parts (part???.bin) saved:0. (Anybody know what this means?) :snip:

From TB's Help file:

Damaged parts are saved into the folder's home directory with a .BIN
extension. Those files may contain parts of damaged messages, so you
can view them with any binary file viewer (you can find plenty of them
by searching the Internet, even the standard Notepad can be used) and
save any relevant information you can find.

JW I understand this. But what is not clear to me is why we went from
JW 3.5.30 to 3.5.36 and then jumped to 3.51 without ever seeming to
JW complete the 3.5.xx series.

9 Actually  3.51 is the same serie, it just uses new numbering system. I
9 don't think it will be changed soon.

JW That makes sense to some extent. But, to my thinking, it is not
JW entirely user-friendly. Over the extended period of time that RL will
JW be making these big changes,

9 We'll avoid situation like with 3.5 which was prepared 6 months.

JW  many TB users will probably prefer to
JW stick with a safe and stable version - one that has all of the
JW components that they need and most of the components that they want.

9 3.51  is  more  stable than 3.5.30 and has the same components. If you
9 are  refering  to  3.0.2.10 - it is your choice to use it or any other
9 version.  In  some  aspects  3.5  is far superior than older versions,
9 while  in  some  it  really  lacks  maturity  (in  example, customizer
9 interface).  So  the choice which version to use fully depends of your
9 needs.

Hey, forget the numbers, just give me the link to the latest and
