Hello Edward,

ET All very misleading... when the
ET discussion list that supports the

ET opposes the basic premise on what
ET the software is supposed to be
ET doing.

That's a little unfair, I think. The general content of replies to
your questions has been "Here are ways to do what you want (or
reasons you can't) and BTW don't send spam 'cos it's not nice"

None of that's a dig against business-to-customer communications,
which, in my limited experience, The Bat! handles extremely well.

It's true that some list members of a more, shall we say,
traditionalist disposition, might come over as a bit curmudgeonly, but
don't mistake that for ranting zealotry and *certainly* don't let it
mask the qualities of the product.

ET Maybe you need to re-examine what spam is. It is not e mail to opt-in,

When I say "spam" I meant these several emails I receive a day telling
me how to get rich quick and whatever electronic gadget I should buy
now, or whether I want to buy 5 million email addresses for 50 dollars
(or what). No I don't. These messages are sent from freemail accounts
without the sender's real name, as they have to hide behind anonymity.

This is what The Bat! is not about.

The Bat! is a powerful mailer for legitimate emails. There is nothing
wrong with having hundreds of customers you do business with, or who
have requested your newsletter. However, there is indeed something
wrong with sending thousands and millions of emails to people who have
never heard of you (or your bogus email address which will be shut
down by Yahoo an hour after you send your "e-commerce" message.

(I don't know whether you fall into this category of what I call
spammers; probably not, as you are using a real name.)

ET This is not 1995 when the Internet was an entirely different world...

Right. As long as you don't mean that spam is good.

Hi Edward,

On 11 December 2000 at 22:08:11 -0700 (which was 05:08 where I
live) Edward Taylor wrote and made these points:

ET This  issue  here  is  overloading  a  mail  server  with the same
ET addresses being posted over and over again in each e mail when you
ET are mailing to a customer list.

A  mail  server  receives  only  one  copy  of  a message with a large
recipient  list.  There is a greater overhead in the initial stages of
sending 2000 individual messages to the same list. It is at the second
stage  only  that  the overhead you are talking about kicks in. At the
final stage (delivery), it all evens out again (when using BCC lists).

ET Your personal feelings about spam appear to be shining through
ET here Marck. Targeted email to a customer list, no matter how large
ET it is, not spam.

It is not the intent of the mail that makes it spam, but the source of
the "customer list" that makes it so. Let's be clear about this. Every
spammer  thinks they are justified. They are not. Unsolicited email is
an   unacceptable  practice.  The  spammer  may  have  "acquired"  the
"customer  list"  in  good  faith  from a source which claims that the
names on the list have asked to be provided with information.

I  have  a  list  server  here which I use to mailshot the users of my
software about updates and tips. They *explicitly* joined those lists,
just as the members of TBUDL signed up. *That* is not spam.

If  all  of  the  names on your "customer list" have explicitly joined
that  list  by their own explicit action and not by harvesting or list
purchase  of  *any*  kind,  then and *only* then is a "targeted email"
*not* spam.

I'm  giving  you  the  benefit  of the doubt that this is the case and
saying that I /hope/ that your intent is not spam transmission.

Which ISP is this. I'm trying to compile a list of ISPs which limit

anything goes. People can spam, port and run freeNet servers through
it. Think of a giant ISP full of Cypherpunks, crackers, spammers and
people who like privacy. All hosted off a giant frigate in the
atlantic where the Mafia can store their money. Well I've got to have
some ambitions g But the gnurgh isp list is a real idea.

OT Could we have a list of mildly offensive words we could use to
express extreme distaste. I'm not sure everyone will appreciate the
full effect of gnurgh.

Re[2]: Importing a X.509 certificate...?

2000-12-11 Thread Beat Strasser

Hi ArekG

As I remember, TB! 1.47 Halloween Edition can't import certificates
from sender's address. It was fixed in some later beta (I don't
remember, from which beta version), but in current version (beta/11)
it works almost well.
So all you need, is to upgrade to the newest beta (11) and this should
resolve your problems (Specials|Add sender to Address Book Ctrl W).

Thank  you for your reply. I didn't read the TBBETA list because I was
lacking  of  time  and  so  I  didn't hear of the ongoing updates. But
perhaps I'll wait for v1.48 because I don't like beta's very much...

So short,
Beat

Re[2]: Multiple e mails

Hi Dierk

 Put a dummy address in the "To" field (just to make it look good; could
 be "Just for laughs"), and the list (prepared in the address book) into
 the "BCC" field. Viola, as Kelly Bundy puts it.

The  dummy  address should be available - else you'll receive an error
message  from  the  mailer  demon. If you put something like 'Just for
laughs', the mail server will try to reach the following addresses, if
your email address is [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
  [EMAIL PROTECTED] , [EMAIL PROTECTED] , [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If these addresses exist, you've just sent your message to people that
you never heard of!

To avoid this, I always put something like this in the TO-field:
  Dear friends [EMAIL PROTECTED]
(in  which  [EMAIL PROTECTED]  is  a  real  address that sends all
 received mails to /dev/null g)

So short,
Beat

I was considering your questions carefully.

   In a post time stamped  re: "duplicating messages" you wrote:

Ming-Li Ok, I assume you use this one to move those msgs you've replied to
Ming-Li trash, right? (Why don't you do it with a auto replied msgs filter?)

   Well it depends. Only msgs that remain in my InBox (that are not
   filtered to a subject folder) that are replied to, are moved to
   trash. In the TB! folder for example, this would not be so. I don't
   really use auto reply  only filter for msgs that I am replying to
   manually as I am doing with this one.

Ming-Li I'm afraid you're not giving us your whole story, for so far I can
Ming-Li hardly make sense your setup, let alone figuring out what's wrong.
Ming-Li Let me requote your original post:

   If I've left something out I can assure you it was out of
   ignorance, rather than anything else for it would be foolish of me
   to be asking for help without providing the facts as best I know
   them to be. How else would a suggested solution apply if there were
   other considerations that weren't included in the picture? [moot]

 A group of msgs is deposited in my inbox. I can mark some msgs with An
 "answer this one" color setting with a hot key combination (thanks to
 Allie's suggestion). Those that are read but not marked are moved to
 trash.

   Since I began this thread, I started to make some changes to
   simplify my set up but, if my memory serves me here, I believe I
   had created a "read" filter which essentially moved any msg that
   was not flagged or nor parked (but was read) to trash.

Ming-Li How are those "moved" to trash? (You said by the "keep for xx days"
Ming-Li setting, but that doesn't make sense.)

   Yes it seems that I assumed that msgs that were kept past the time
   set in the folder properties would be sent to trash (rather than
   wiped)  that the final wipe would be from the trash folder (after
   the set time frame).

 This works fine but I've noticed that a 2nd copy of msgs that
 are marked to answer is "created"  moved to trash.

Ming-Li Does this happen to *all* msgs marked to answer? Are those 2nd
Ming-Li copies (in trash folder) have the same "answer this one" color?

   Yes

Ming-Li When would they show up in the trash folder? (Right after you
Ming-Li use the hotkey to color code those msgs in the Inbox?) Are
Ming-Li those msgs marked to answer parked?

   Yes, there were parked msgs in the trash.

   I hope this helps to clarify what I was trying to do with the
   limited knowledge that I have. Anyway, I appreciate your taking the
   time to try to help me.

any way to turn THESE off???

2000-12-11 Thread Allen Liou

Hi,

I  was  wondering  if  there  are  ways  to  turn  the  following  OFF
automatically:

1) In  Mail  Dispatcher,  reset READ and RECEIVE to be OFF upon start
(instead of pressing SHIFT 1  2)
2) In Edit Mail Message, Auto-Format (SHIT-CTRL-F) OFF by default.

thx!

Good news. Perhaps they really don't do a full spyware install if you
are already registered. Can anyone verify that they don't contact the
'registration server' during the install?

Thanks,

2000-12-11 Thread Douglas Hinds


Hello ztrader  other fellow TB! Users following this thread,

Sunday, December 10, 2000,  you stated:

z Opera is now spyware.

To which Allie responded:

ACM It would therefore seem that if you're a registered Opera 4
ACM user, the adware is not installed. I installed version 5 on top
ACM of my registered version 4.

Then I asked:

DH I wonder if the same would be true for my registered version 3.6x?

Meaning, whether the ads go away on installing version 5 on top
of my registered version 3.6x.

However, you replied

z My understanding is that this is new with ver 5 only.

You mean the ads. But I meant the behavior (no ads if installed over
a registered Opera 4 - or maybe earlier). However, at this point I
believe that I'd have to pay for an upgrade in order to get rid of
the ads.

In any case, I think I'll wait for the next version (the one that
hopefully corrects the current Opera 5's bugs).

Now - to tie this in w/ TB!: When I double click on an url contained
in a message, Opera opens (if closed) and navigates there (either
way).

DH

It's not Read (imp., rhymes with reed) but Read (past tense, rhymes
with red): shortcoming of the English language. The tickmark merely
indicates that the message has been read already. Unticking it means
you reset the message to New (= unread - past participle).

Receive is marked when a message is new. If you have read/received it
already, it is not marked. It is the normal thing to want to receive a
message that you have not read yet, that's why they made it the
default. I don't think it can be changed so that a new message will
not be received.

AL 2) In Edit Mail Message, Auto-Format (SHIT-CTRL-F) OFF by default.
