Re[2]: Newbie question: Mark all Message Read command

2000-05-09 Thread Jim Turner


Thanks Jast, I'll try it!

J  You might want to use a workaround: Select all messages in list (Ctrl+A)
J  and then mark all as read (Ctrl+M). If you have threaded view on, you must
J  first open all threads (Ctrl+*) :-( Still works very quickly as you don't
J  even have to take your hand off the Ctrl button ;-)

Re: Filtering READ messages to NON-TB folder

 Ah, I misunderstood the question, sorry.  The closest thing I can see
 is under the actions tab in the filter, "export message to file"  You
 should be able to specify any path for the file, since it is external
 to TB.

 You'll have to experiment to see if this suits your needs.

 Hi TBUDL,

 I don't know what I did, but the pre-view pane is gone. I checked
 View/split mode, and bopth full-width and full-height pre-view panes
 don't show.

 I also checked with the mouse whether maybe I decreased the height to
 zero (I usually have full-width pre-view pane), but that was not the
 case. The only height I could change at the bottom of my screen was
 the task bar.

 Any ideas what could have happened?

Re: Ticker Tales Doug's Bug - Was: Filtering / Deleting messages w/ *.vbs attachments

2000-05-09 Thread Allie Martin

On Mon, 8 May 2000 22:56:13 -0600, Douglas Hinds wrote:

 alt+v+m when used from the main window is the same as shift+control+e.

Aren't we speaking about the ticker virtual folder window? :-)

 The main problem is getting the ticker to open (time wise). Otherwise I
 could do advanced filtering on the inbox of each account, except this
 one where 2 filters are automatically rather than manually implemented.

Hopefully, version 2's filtering will be an enhanced version of the
present.

AM It's not TB! doing nothing.

 TB! insists on counting all messages, including se in subdirectories
 not selecting for tickering. This is equivilent to removing the
 speen of the wrong patient.

The ticker here opens instantaneously.

AM It's your old machine that is taking forever to do it's thing.
AM It's holding you back.

 OK. You get paid better for removing spleens.

I hadn't reached there yet. You may not have felt that an upgrade was in
order and needed. :-)

 I have probably gotten my money's worth out of this one by now and have
 a PII up at the border.

Probably???!!! I'd say DEFINITELY!!! Y. LOL.

 If there was a good OS that handled threads well and had developer
 support, a dual processor system might be appropriate. But maybe the
 faster CPU and buses are doing the job.

Dual processor? If you're using the machine you're using now, it's highly
unlikely that you'll need a dual processor system.

 Remember though, some of the problems mentioned earlier here have never
 affected me. For instance, I can open TB! together while other programs
 are opening w no problems.

:-) Thank God for small mercies. :-) Anyway, I hope you do get the
opportunity to do an upgrade soon.

 Lastly, I have what's either a bug or an omission:  TB!'s view
 folder, using message lists, doesn't let you flag for priority since
 no flag menu appears on right clicking. You can do colors, flags
 (via the cursor) memos  colors but NOT designate priority except
 through the main window, because the ticker view window (which tells
 you the name of ONE account - although it *will* contain more)
 doesn't let you do it either.

Yes. I've noticed this as well.

 Another lastly: What's the story with v 142c? What does C stand for,
 Cirujano?

It's a minor revision of the initial release of 1.42. They changed the
method of compression of the executable among a few other things. Not
enough to release it as another version by /number/.

 One more lastly (and this is important) : What if I want to ticker
 to show ALL messages that arrived within a given time frome,
 INCLUDING messages already read.

The ticker will only display unread messages.

 The ticker has now gotten used to being run. (Computers evidently
 undergo a process similar to myelinization). It popped up intantly
 on shift+cntrl+t (although it took over a minute to start moving -
 but it may have been stuck (I had to punch it around a bit) and now
 it's runninng in the background, while the keystrokes are appearing
 as I write. Computers are like women (sometimes incomprehensible but
 necessary. That is not a sexist statement).

This tends to happen on resource challenged systems. As you run a
particular application, it loads it's various components into the precious
RAM space and as a result speeding up by minimising paging. When you move
to another app, it pages a lot initially and then speeds up as it loads
itself into RAM.

 My ticker does not hide by right clicking.

It does here.

The file tb142uc.rar is a protected archive of the /uncompressed/ TB!1.42c
executable. Stefan placed it there when I wrote to him about the problems
I was having with the compression. They compressed the executable for
security reasons, based on the fact that the uncompressed version is more

Version 1.42c uses a different method of compression from that of version
1.42 and a couple minor fixes that I'm uncertain about were also made.

Inconsistent ESC key

2000-05-09 Thread Thomas Fernandez

Hi TBUDL,

when I am in the main window, and I alt-click on a sender's name, I
get to see only the messages from that sender. Same holds true for
subject, etc fields. This is fine, and I use it a lot.

To get out of this mode, I click ESC and can see all messages again.

When I do the same in View Folder mode, ESC will close the folder
insteaad of letting me see all messages again! Is this intended?

Yes, I've noted this conflict. Esc normally closes a view folder window.

CTRL+= is another way of redisplaying all messages so perhaps using
this instead is better in this instance although old habits die hard. I
end up just reopening the folder after it's closed. The message list is
back to the default listing of all messages when it's reopened. :-(

depends on how you set your filters:
if you use an incoming mail-filter, the message will instantly be
placed in the archive-folder. if you use a read-filter however, you'll
have the same functionality as now, but you'll have 1 message-base
instead of hundreds of seperate messages (this also saves a lot on
disk-space  system-overhead)

Printing problem

2000-05-09 Thread Larry Barrett

Greetings,

I have noticed lately that there are times when certain messages
simply will not print.  Today, for example, I received two different
messages within my "family" folder. When I clicked "print" on one - it
printed - when I clicked on the other - nothing!  This has happened to
me on a least three or four other occasions. Is there something I
should know?  Has anyone else ever had this problem?

Thank you.

Yes, at least a few of us have reported it at last count.

I don't print from TB! often, but have run across this twice so far
and, as you say, only with certain messages.  To date, I've not been
able to determine what is different about those messages, nor have the
others who have experienced it as far as I know.

In one case, though I could not print the message from my Inbox, if I
redirected it to myself via my ISP I *could* print the re-directed
message.

In another case (and the last one for which this printing problem
reared its head), I went into Message | Print Setup | Setup printer
and RE-selected my printer.  The non-printing message would then
print.  Haven't seen the problem since, but then, as I said, I rarely
print e-mail.

FYI, I've had the latest drivers for my printer (HP 820Cse) throughout
the difficulties.  I only mention this because someone will
undoubtedly point to outdated drivers or your printer, saying "those
printers are known to have problems ... blah, blah."

Let us know more info, if either of the above help, etc.

I, too, ran into this just 2 days ago. I monitor my wifes mailbox but
do not delete from the server. She received a message that she wanted
me to print for her. TAIM (Try As I Might), I couldn't get the message
to print. The mailbox had two messages in it. The other one printed
fine. I chose to forward it to one of my other mailboxes and it then
would print.

I thought it was just a fluke but apparently others have seen this as

 First thing to come to mind: Search through your messages for those

Time stamp - I should have thought of that. So I went through all my
accounts, and each folder, but still couldn't find any message with a
corresponding time stamp. Then Marck's message came in:

MDP If the file is externally saved in the attachments folder then it will
MDP appear  as  a  named  file  in  the artificial X-BAT-FILES header so a
MDP message search for the named file in headers should find it.

Maybe. The file name in the X-FILES, sorry: X-BAT-FILES, will be the
same as the attachment name, not a BAT.TMP name.

Further assiduous search by any means possible revealed that the log
of my work account contains the following line:

FETCH - could not store message (file name - C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\BAT7382.TMP)

Since I "leave messages on server" on my work account when I'm at
home, I looked into what is still there (dispatch messages on server)
and found the offending message. It was not in the Inbox of that
account and thus had not been downloaded at all! The .TMP file is
quarantined on my PC, so I believe TB decided not to download, or list
the message in the message list of the Inobx, as TB could not store it
(or the attachment) where it wanted to.

Anyway, I deleted the message from the server and the quarantined
virus file from my windows\temp directory, and I conclude the
cooperation of TB and PC-Cillin was quite nice. Even though the visual
output did not help me find the source at first.

TB's Vulnerability to Malicious Code ??

2000-05-09 Thread Nick Andriash

I just received this post from one of the Agent Lists I'm on, and I found
it interesting, and wanted to share it with you.

Please check this mention of "The Bat!" email client:
http://listserv.aol.com/cgi-bin/wa?A2=ind0005BL=tourbusP=R2m=1

Quoting:

 - Built-in HTML and image viewers. (No need to wait until a browser
 or external image viewer gets loaded.)

What is the basic difference between what is advertised here, and what MS
offers through Outlook or Outlook Express. Surely we don't share the same
vulnerability as those MS products do, yet we can still view HTML code?
What's the catch? What vulnerabilities does TB! have?

Ticker Window Doesn't Update

Hello  fellow The Bat User Discussion List members,

After logging on, downloading mail, invoking the ticker and double
clicking on a message in it, the virtual folder / ticker window
opened. Later, I downloaded an additional message to folder set for
tickering but notice that the message doesn't appear automatically.
It would have to closed, and I have to reopen it.

I tried turning the ticker on and off, but that didn't update the
window.

I shut the window and reopened it with the ticker running and that
didn't do it either. so I shut them both down, and... that didn't
do it either. I have the time limits set to one maximum, 1 second
minimum.

This is perplexing, downright consternating.

Re: How to autocolor certain Messages

Hello Alexander and other TBUDLers,

Tuesday, May 09, 2000, 12:51:53 AM, you wrote:

AAG   What type of filter i should use to color specific messages (for
AAG   example from Ali in The Bat ! list) ?

AAG The matter is that the filter, moving The Bat List messages
AAG from Inbox to The Bat! folder works at first... Well... So
AAG should i use "Read Messages" filter with Group Color Option
AAG after that for The Bat! folder ?

AAG   In my case it doesn't work.

Relative to filtering to automatically add color, I assume that
someone doing this would want to set off certain messages BEFORE
reading them, rather than after - so they will attract his / her
attention. I'm going to try making one.

This seems straightforward enough: Anything from or to me (not to a
list) is going to turn a very pale shade of yellow on arrival. My
user name was the rule as the sender, and my user name as recipient
was an alternative. Then I redirected one of my messages to myself
via the bcc.

It worked fine EXCEPT - it didn't work until it was marked as read.
This is anomalous behavior. It was an incoming mail filter. So: I
opened the filter and added the action: Mark as read.

That did it.

You must understand, that while The Bat! may be the best mailer
around, it's also obligatorily a little batty - but that's only
natural.

This test was not done on a folder messages are filtered to, but
rather on an inbox. I'll make another one for this message, which
will filter into the TBUDL folder on arrival.

Douglas

 Yes, at least a few of us have reported it at last count.

Nick We just went through 21 Betas, and this is the first I've heard
Nick it mentioned that TB! has a printing problem. I don't print from
Nick TB!, but still, I would think RitLabs should have been all over
Nick this problem with the latest round of Betas.

Don't know if RitLabs is addressing it or not ... it's been mentioned
here at least once before today, and there was a thread on the beta

Re: BAT7382.TMP

Hi Andrey,

Andrey G. Sergeev (AKA Andris) wrote:

TF FETCH - could not store message (file name - C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\BAT7382.TMP)

AGSAA If you are using some antivirus software such as PC-Cillin in the
AGSAA monitor mode The Bat! may not be able to store any message containing a
AGSAA probably malicious code (in other words, write to or read from some
AGSAA file) to your disks. If so, TB! informs you about I/O error by writing
AGSAA the string quoted above to the log file. Of course the whole I/O
AGSAA operation couldn't be completed.

I think that behaviour is very good.

AGSAA I think that the offending file doesn't contain a probably
AGSAA dangerous code at all - because PC-Cillin _prevented_ TB! to
AGSAA write it into. Instead of that there may be some garbage in
AGSAA this file - you can _safely_ *view* it in any program like
AGSAA Notepad, FAR, Hiew etc.

The file DID contain TROJ-PRETTY-PARK. I deleted it already, so I
cannot view it any more.

AGSAA My opinion as a system administator is: don't worry _too_ much about
AGSAA this issue - unless you manually _execute_ this .tmp file you have no
AGSAA ways to infect your system.

Thanks for your valued professional opinion. But as a layman, I keep
PC-Cillin in the monitor mode, and I keep recommending it to everybody
who doesn't have a firewall. Even if viruses don't execute unless you
actually invoke execution manually, I wouldn't be too happy having
them on my HD without me even knowing about it. ;-)

vcard importing

2000-05-09 Thread Gord McCallum

Hi,

One of the features that I'd really like to see in TB (or know how to
use if it exists) would be the ability to import an entire directory
of .vcf (vcard) files into the address book.  I use Time  Chaos to
manage my contacts (highly recommended) and I can use the mailto:
field in it to invoke The Bat, but I'd like to duplicate my contacts
in TB's address book.

As it stands now, Time and Chaos can do a mass export of all my
contacts and create individual vcards, but there are hundreds of them
and it's a bit time consuming to import each one at once.

Is there a workaround or am I missing anything?

Open the vCard. On the top-right corner, you will find a button "add

 Sadly, nothing automatic. You'll have to use Strg+* to open all

 I don't think so, but you can use ctrl-* on a standard US keyboard

Re[2]: How to autocolor certain Messages

2000-05-09 Thread Douglas Hinds


Hello TBUDLers,

This color change test done on a messages filtered to the TBUDL
folder on arrival didn't work.

I will try to make anything from myself turn a very pale shade of
yellow on arrival. I used my user name was the rule as the sender,
with no alternative. This time I'm duplicating that using the same
thing as an alternative. So this is a test, for any message I post
to TBUDL.

The other rule just worked perfectly on the main account for a
message directed directly to me (not a list), which is what I
wanted.

I would use "kludges"; in fact I always do, instaed of sender or
