Yes, I was consciously rude. But I also found Stephan's statement rude
(probably unconsciously in his case) saying that he hasn't the time to
read, and therefore try to understand, our reasons for for the proposal
and 'naively' proposing the use of a VF.

Our time, at least mine, is at least as scarce and valuable as
Stephan's. And I found it rude, perhaps just discourteous, that if I and
others have devoted time (aside of that devoted to testing) to think and
make a serious proposal, that he says he doesn't have the time to read
it and try to understated it and why it is being made, and 'naively'
proposing the use of a VF as an 'alternative'.

Of course there is no reason why he should know that he is proposing the
use of a VF to one of the persons in this list that uses more VFs daily,
over 60, and who knows quite well what VFs can do and be used for, and
who has been and is in off-line contact with 9Val to help solve the VF
issues that come up with many of the betas.

And that is enough on my part on this issue, at least for a few days.

In your message mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] you said you

mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] you wrote

I read this to mean that the messages are still sitting in the OUTBOX.
At least one of the points of the entire discussion about a draft
folder is to get drafts of messages out of the OUTBOX. I took your
answer to mean that getting messages out of the OUTBOX was not part of
the discussion of possible answers, either because it was off the
table or because since you wouldn't (sorry:didn't have time to) read
any of the messages about the question you weren't even prepared to
understand the desire to have drafts out of the OUTBOX.

Besides that, while the virtual folder works ok until you go back to
edit the message some more, if you happen to hit put message in the
outbox, it gets there unparked and vulnerable to sending. As long as
the drafts reside in the OUTBOX, part of the reasons for a DRAFT
folder are unfulfilled.

Hello Stefan,

>
> I don't have time to read all messages about the Draft folder. I don't
> understand why creation of a virtual folder cannot work for you?

Yes, I can understand you don't have time when you have to release 2
betas the same night.

A Virtual Folder? What are you talking about? Just read my proposal in
BT, specially the first couple of lines.

I have said several times (perhaps not enough) that I DON'T NEED a
Drafts folder, I've lived and can live without it. My proposal is to
_improve_ TB so it will keep selling and development will never have to
stop, and to make things easier for most users, specially to novice
ones. And to try to avoid the implementation of the so called "Outbox
Protection Feature" which is nothing but a "sneaky and dirty" way of
overcoming one of risks or limitations of TB's 'peculiar' Outbox.

Stephan, I could understand you guys if you came out here and said that
it would be too difficult (which I am quite sure isn't) or costly in
development effort to implement it, or that you have higher priority
things to do now, etc., but I can't understand your stubbornness in
defending the benefits of having only the Outbox, with its
peculiarities, versus Outbox and Drafts.

Go ahead, maintain your stubbornness and let your marketing people
prepare the campaign for the euphemistic "Outbox Protection Feature". I
can envision it.

<< We at Ritlabs care for our users and want to protect you ('stupid'
user) from inadvertently copying messages to the Outbox and unwillingly
sending them out. For this reason we have made a big development effort
using state of the art technology and we have included in our latest
release a feature that users of other email clients can't even dream
about, an "Outbox Protection Feature". Come on! Purchase your copy of
The Bat! now before we run out of stock! >>

But the ('stupid') user may ask himself... and why the heck does an
Outbox need a 'Protection Feature'? What's the problem with TB's Outbox?
Why can't I just have an Outbox and a Drafts folder?

As have have said several times in the messages you don't have time to
read: "It is a matter of concept, logic, elegance, clearness and
intuitiveness."

Finally Stephan and everyone, please hear and understand that I, also
known as MAU or Miguel, DON'T NEED a Drafts folder AT ALL and that I
DID NOT request this Drafts folder FOR ME. Those who know me from years
may remember the many features I have added to _my_ TB with the aid of
PowerPro and a text editor.

Re: About TB folders

Hello Stefan!

> ... I've read all messages in the "About TB folders" thread and I

> something?

If I've understood Miguel A. Urech correctly, his chief reason for
proposing separate Draft and Outbox folders was that it would be a
more elegant, simple, and intuitive-feeling way to protect the Outbox
than the implementation of the new so-called "Outbox Protection"
feature.

Then others of us, with a long-standing wish to have all messages we
haven't finished editing stored in a separate folder, began to put
supporting notes.

Occasionally, when I have a "cannot connect to server" notification on
a message I'm attempting to send, I will find it in the Outbox, if I
close the editor window. That's really the only time I have messages
waiting to be sent in the Outbox.

And I don't schedule sending--I do everything manually.

But it's tempting to have another look, since sending was delayed. And
I run into the same PGP-signing difficulties I've already discussed at
such length elsewhere.

So, besides agreeing with Miguel's viewpoint that a Draft box is
simpler, more elegant, and more intuitive than the "Outbox Protection"
feature, I guess I have to admit my only true need is to have the lack
of PGP functionality addressed.

Thank you so very much, Stefan, for your time and attention.

I can't tell if you are just being hard headed, aren't listening or
are just enjoying the arguing. There are messages to send, messages
completed but not yet to be sent, and messages in progress.

When a newspaper cartoonist works, s/he works in batches, and sends
them all off to the his/her publisher. At some point at the syndicate,
or in the newspaper somewhere, the whole group are waiting, but only
one item is for today's paper. Picture all those cartoons sitting in
the outbox. Today's wants to go today, tomorrow's on Thursday, etc.
Meanwhile, the cartoonist is working on the batch next due at the
publisher. Those belong in the draft folder.

I don't have time to read all messages about the Draft folder. I don't

Said better than I could ever hope to explain it, MAU!

In some real-world offices one has an Outbox and an Inbox on one's
desk.

In those offices, only things ready to exit are placed in the Outbox
(unless the user makes a mistake, always possible in both the real and
the virtual worlds).

Messages still being worked on are kept in a separate
container--perhaps simply in a stack on the desk itself, perhaps in a
desk drawer for work-in-progress.

That's why having a Draft folder *and* an Outbox folder are such a
simple and intuitive way to set up The Bat!

You are right but I think you are again confusing the terms Vili. That's
precisely the point in proposing a Drafts folder. Having an Outbox and a
Drafts folder is much _simpler_ to understand and use for everybody (and
less prone to misunderstandings and mistakes) than just having an

will be sent later) and drafts, and then having to add an

Think about it a bit more. The fact that you interpret things

understand what the other one is saying, is one of the many arguments in
favour of having a Drafts folder. There would be no misunderstanding if

If each of us decided to fight against anything we didn't think we
needed . . .

It seems to me that the more constructive route is to support each
other's needs whether it is something which we ourselves would use,
when there is a logical coherent articulation of why some users would
benefit and the program as a whole would become more coherent.

If you can articulate a reason why you need an Hungarian folder, and
what it needs to do which you can't do with the present configuration
and how it would make TB! a better program I would support your
advocacy of it.

This point has already been elegantly answered.

Yhe difference:

It is indeed *not* an unnecessary new toy.

It is not a toy at all which is being asked for. It is an upgrade in
functionality.

Even if the faulty flag (so-called) behavior and the dangerously
ambiguous "Save the message" box that pops up AFTER the message has
already gone and puts it back into the Outbox if you click YES, and
the dangerous alteration of PGP Macros by the Outbox--even if all
these were fixed:

I would still hate having to scroll down and find my flagged
(so-called) messages waiting for Further Editing among all the
unflagged (so-called) messages Waiting to be Sent.

Once more, I ask you, Vili, how will it hurt you if the developers
make a functioning Draft folder for my use and the use of many others
who *do* indeed need it.

Something you NEED, as opposed to something you WANT, is not a
"totally unnecessary new toy."

Not sufficient. Even flagged, they sometimes accidentally go out. And
especially with this new faulty feature of "Save the Message" box
popping up AFTER the message has been sent.

Further, the Outbox over-rides my AB macros
%SIGN COMPLETE

and

%NOUSEPGP

as well as

%ENCRYPT COMPLETE

It defaults to the Account/Properties/Options/Message-Editor setting.

And there is no way to make a Folder setting in Outbox to counter
this.

I am constantly having to do work-arounds of the Outbox's behavior.
And this has been true for me since my first version, v. 1.61.

What will it hurt you, Vili, if I have a working Draft folder supplied
to me by the developers?

As has been noted by others, I too never use Inbox-Known. But I'm not
campaigning to have it taken away from you (if you use it) or anyone
else who likes it.

You could treat your relationship with the Draft folder in the same
way. Just don't use it.

You aren't suggesting they should just stop developing the program
since 1.3 works well are you?

the point is that we have too few where you can edit messages residing
there. there should be a place to put documents which are in process
where they are not mixed up with documents which are complete and
ready at some time to send out into the world in their present state.

There may be enough, or more than enough, default folders for INCOMING
mail, but one too few folders for outgoing mail. It doesn't even have
to be a default folder. It could be a folder which one would have to
create. Now it is not possible to create a draft folder.

The real question is why would anyone have to have a message in
preparation IN the outbox when it needed later editing?

As you can see in my signature, I'm using 3.62.14 now. Please see
attached GIF from my Outbox and tell me which one is a Draft and which
one is Keep.

Why would anyone park a message in Outbox if not for later editing???
