Set up a filter which has the following:

Presence : Yes

Action "Mark as read", "Send Auto-Reply".

This should work as long as the MUA follows the MIME standards.  I
would actually set up the filter so that it the message's colour group
was set first of all to make sure that all was OK.

no printing possible when to-field is empty

2001-04-10 Thread Anton Sommer

Hello,

I'm a virgin in this list - means I'm new :)
and I have some (maybe boring) questions about TB. Maybe I could find
the answers in any archives or postings before, but I didn't. Maybe I
don't know the right places (links and archives) and somebody can give
me some advices.

The first question is:
I'm online all the day. Somethimes, when I write an email, I want to
print it out and read it before I send it (the important once). Than I
put the email addresses in the to-field (not before). But without
having the email addresses in the to-field, I cannot print the mail.
Is there a higher meaning in that behavior?

My workaround is to write anything in that field, print it out and
overwrite that anything with the email addresses.
Is that a 'it is like it is - behavior-bug?'

Next questions follows if you leave me alive :)
Feel everybody free to correct my small funny english.

The Bat! - suggestions

2001-04-10 Thread Maurice Snellen

I sent the message below to the 'suggestions' address listed on the
Ritlabs website, but it bounced back to me. I apologize in advance if
this is the wrong place to put this in an attempt to reach the makers.


Dear ppl at Ritlabs,

First of all I'd like to give you my compliments for making an
excellent mail program.

There are two suggestions though that I'd like to make that would make
your already great program even better and easier to use for me.

1) Hard returns and soft returns

When 'Auto-Format' is on, it is impossible to have two consecutive
lines that are not filled to the maximum width allowed by the set
margins. It seems that there is no difference between what in word
processors is sometimes referred to as a soft-return and a
hard-return.

This makes it very difficult to create *-lists in mails unless one
adds a blank line between each item. Another situation is when I
delete lines at the bottom of a message after having replied in order
to get rid of the bottom part of the message, so only my signature is
left, which often results in me deleting one line too many, the
auto-format kicking in, reformatting the signature separator and my
name (as seen below) onto one line.

It would be nice if the internal editor would know which linebreaks
are purely due to the margin setting, and which are entered purposely
by the user.

As a result, I often find myself continuously switching back and forth
between 'Auto-Format' on and off.

On a side note: is it possible to have the cursor only go to places
where text and/or spaces were already typed, and to have the text be
able to have spaces after the last character on a line, if only to be
able to verify that the signature separator has a space after it.

2) Drag and Drop attachments

I often receive messages containing more than one attachment of which
I need to forward only one or several but not all to someone else. In
order to do so, it would be nice if one could open the mail, open a
second, new mail and just drag and drop the attachments that need to
be added to the outgoing mail right from the window of the received
mail onto the window of the new mail.

Thank you again for making The Bat! and good luck with it's on-going
development.

 S/MIME Cryptographic Signature


Easy macro question

2001-04-10 Thread Anton Sommer

Hello,

I have 4 address books. Each address book has the name of one of my
email addresses. When I write an email, I select the person directly
from the address book via doubleclick.

Now I want to use the macro %ACCOUNT="adressbook name" means
%ACCOUNT="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" or %ACCOUNT="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" and so
on, to be independent from the selected account in TB. Because every
friend should get my emails from always the same (his/her's known)
email account.

But... I cannot find a macro which gives me the name of the address
book from which I selected the destination email. How can I do that or
has anybody another idea?

 Anton

That's a most peculiar requirement on your part. vbg This is most likely
a bug that you've uncovered there. The problem is that you're using beta
software for TB! and this problem may be confined to the beta version. I
don't know if any full release version users wish to confirm whether or
not this problem exists with their installations.

Your English is actually very good. :=)

On Wed, 11 Apr 2001 00:52:13 +0200, Maurice wrote these words of wisdom:

MS 1) Hard returns and soft returns

MS When 'Auto-Format' is on, it is impossible to have two consecutive
MS lines that are not filled to the maximum width allowed by the set
MS margins. It seems that there is no difference between what in word
MS processors is sometimes referred to as a soft-return and a
MS hard-return.

Some of the editors great formatting routines such as the reformatting of
quoted material will lead to this sort of limitation. The added advantage
is that you'll always be aware of the formatting of your text and what the
recipient will be seeing at the other end. Soft returns can be very
deceptive and can lead to some lousy formatting that the recipient has to
deal with.

The only application that I see dealing with soft returns in a positive
way is Agent and Becky, but then again, neither of them can reflow quoted
material the way TB! can...

MS As a result, I often find myself continuously switching back and forth
MS between 'Auto-Format' on and off.

If you find yourself constantly having to switch between both you may do
better keeping auto-format off and then hitting alt+l whenever you need to
do any text reflowing.

MS On a side note: is it possible to have the cursor only go to places
MS where text and/or spaces were already typed, and to have the text be
MS able to have spaces after the last character on a line, if only to be
MS able to verify that the signature separator has a space after it.

TB!'s editor is pretty stuck in it's methodology and version 2 is slated
to either include and alternate editor or provisions to seamlessly use an
external editor of your choice.

MS 2) Drag and Drop attachments

MS I often receive messages containing more than one attachment of which
MS I need to forward only one or several but not all to someone else. In
MS order to do so, it would be nice if one could open the mail, open a
MS second, new mail and just drag and drop the attachments that need to
MS be added to the outgoing mail right from the window of the received
MS mail onto the window of the new mail.

Now THAT would make for an interesting addition. Great suggestion.
