I wish to hell TB would do that on my system..well like I say, I've resigned to the copy and paste because the superiority of the application is ahead of the field compared to the other email clients I tinker with. Still as TB is a work in progress, one day one of these new betas is going to work my way, and if it doesn't I won't be disappointed because I didn't expect it anyway. > Clicking another url will open another window or tab, no > error messages, no matter what I'm reading the message in, with > the exception that webmail gets interesting with that - -- > depending on which browser I'm reading in, I may get > another window/tab in that browser or it may call the default. > And, although SlimBrowser is set as my default, Favorites still > pull up whichever of IE6 & Crazy Browser was the previous default.

Clicking a mailto: link brings up The Bat!. But all the > newsreaders I've tried want to use their internal email > composition stuff This sounds normal to me. I use a newsreader called Xnews and it has an option to bring up an 'external' editor if you want to compose your letter in that..you could have Xnews launch TB automatically every time you composed a letter, and if you wanted to put the address in TB well of course you could and send the email from that but why? If you are using TB to create a reply to a news group you would be out of luck, because it would be I think impossible to send a news group message from TB as it cannot log into the news server, an essential requirement for posting a news message as you probably know. You could always compose your reply to the news group in TB 'editor' as it were and paste it into the newsreader before sending. I think that's the idea in Xnews. Some people can't write or edit anything without their favorite editor. There is or was a German email client called AK mail that used to offer the option of composing your messages in Word..talk about overkill, and you would of course need "ms word" on your system, a scary thought. There is a 'free' and tiny word processor and or editor called "crypt edit" and it can 'export' your message to word as well..packed with features, quite extraordinary really.

What browser do you have as default? I have IE6, Crazy Browser (uses IE engine), SlimBrowser (also uses IE engine), Opera 6.01, K-Meleon 0.7, and Mozilla 1.3b all installed. Whichever one I set as default will come up when I click a url in a message. Clicking another url will open another window or tab, no error messages, no matter what I'm reading the message in, with the exception that webmail gets interesting with that - -- depending on which browser I'm reading in, I may get another window/tab in that browser or it may call the default. And, although SlimBrowser is set as my default, Favorites still pull up whichever of IE6 & Crazy Browser was the previous default. Now, if I may piggyback a problem I've got on your discussion, I have a similar problem, but reversed. I have The Bat! set as default mail client, clicked the set default simple mapi button, etc. I'm running Win98SE. Clicking a mailto: link brings up The Bat!. But all the newsreaders I've tried want to use their internal email composition stuff if I click the reply by email button, even if I have it set to use the system email client. Does anyone have any ideas why & how I can fix it?

Thanks for the suggestion I don't think TB has an option to select another browser other than the "open with" application. For some reason on my system this fault will remain mysterious. The expected behavior of TB with message URL's (being able to double click on a URL to launch the default browser) only works once after after an 'upgrade'. A second attempt to launch a different URL will generate an error message and the 'stuck' hourglass cursor icon..The only reason I still suspect something fishy in TB is because nothing else on the system that can evoke the 'default' browser has this problem. Well fuck it...I'll just use the right click option and copy the URL to the clipboard and do the paste thing. That's what I've been doing anyway, it just would be nice to know why it doesn't work for me on this system. Thanks anyway. C.K.

Well, I don't know for sure but if TB!, as it seems, takes 0 days as < 24 h there should be no problem with time zones. OTOH, you can still filter out "legal" messages from systems with date (mistakenly) set to future (say, "tachyonic" messages ;-) ). -- Best regards, M.
