Best way to upgrade versions?

You get a stable build, you stick with it until a version comes out that has some improvement you just can't live without. Even then, smart users let the cutting edge people find the inevitable bugs before installing. Installing every version you find on the FTP site is simply madness, AFAIC.

Because of that, I get to auto-save attachments to some directory, and note in new maked message what is a list of attachments. So, follow this steps: 1) Create new directory for striped attachments some on HDD, like is 'striped', or some other, 2) Create new filter for account in Incoming mail group, with name 'strip HTML`, or some other that you wont, 3) For source box select Inbox, and for 'move messages to folder' select what you wont (is no matter where you put this message with HTML, because we well generate new), 4) In 'Filtering strings' enter Content-Type: multipart/mixed; boundary , for strings, and select Kludges for location., Presence is Yes. 5) Now select 'Actions' tab and check 'Mark the message read', and 'Send Auto-Reply', then click on right button to make new template for Auto-Reply, 6) In Template enter this: - start of Template - Original message posted from: %OFROMADDR Date of post: %ODATE at %OTIMELONG Attachment: %OATTACHMENTS From original message is striped HTML: [ start of post ]- %TEXT --[ end of post ]- - start of Template - 7) Click on OK and then check 'Extract attached files to the specified direcotry', and in textbox enter or browse for directory created in first step. 8) For safe, select first option 'Increment the file name if a file already exist'. 9) Go to 'Options' tab and select 'Immediately' for Send generated messages. 10) On tab 'Advanced' check option 'Message has attachments'. 11) Now close Sorting Office dialog, go to main Options and Network and Administration and check option 'Allow local delivery'. Click on OK and restart TB. What happens in future - when you get message with attachment that is have for content-type multipart/mixed, al attachments well be saved to defined directory, generated new message with all text content and specify list of attachments. If you get some important attach, you well have saved file to HDD, but, if is only HTML (message.html) she well be on HDD to, but no more in message. This is situation for global accounts.

Yesterday, throughout the day the NA version numbers on the Web page were changing just as fast as they were on NA the FTP site. Didn't realize that. IMHO, a minor version number with a letter suffix is hardly a confidence builder for new users. (at least not for new users who have a clue about software, anyway) Perhaps RIT ought to release fewer versions publicly, and perhaps they ought to renumber any released version to end with at least a .5 if not a .0. Or, as a last resort, they could simply tell everyone that they are beta testers. lol Best, Yuki mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- __ Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org

Palm sync so slow?
Out of curiosity, what is it that makes the palmsync with TB so slow? I made a folder called palmsync, to which I copy mail I want to sync. I set it as the default account for mailto, and I set the conduit as Eudora 3.0.3 or higher. Then I sync, and it looks like it's hung forever, it takes almost 5 minutes. The weird thing is, even if I add only one message, it still takes 5 minutes. Five minutes to check that only one new message is in the folder and sync it? I tried the MS Outlook Express conduit too, same problem. Oh and here's something else. You don't need the thing to have your palm account selected as the default for mailto. You just need to edit sync.ini in your palm desktop user directory, and have: Profile=palmsync UserAccount=palmsync PostOffice=palmsync where palmsync = the account name you want to sync, in the Bat. In my experience marking it as the default for mailto URLs does absolutely nothing. I found this out when I was trying to switch what I used to have synced to my palm, to a new account that was just a container for msgs I wanted to sync. Even though I marked the new account as the default, the sync conduit kept syncing the old one... so I edited sync.ini manually. -- Kiyan Azarbar M.A. Program in Linguistics University of Ottawa -- __ Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org

Hi Yuki, On Wed, 9 May 2001 07:03:57 +0900GMT (09/05/2001, 06:03 +0800GMT), Yuki Taga wrote: YT From 1.51 to 1.52 is a **minor** version change. T I think the Connection Center is a major change. YT If so, then it should have an appropriate version number. ACK. YT For most users, there is simply no justification in downloading it YT and installing it -- unless you want to be constantly on the YT buggy, cutting edge of development. T This is generally true. But how about new users who download for the T first time from the official page and get a buggy new features T version? YT RIT should be *especially* careful about this, ACK - and I was pretty disappointed that they posted the buggy beta version on the web site, just renamed it 1.52, and keep sending the subsequent beta versions as release veresions with a letter added to the web site. Bad style; quite damaging to their reputation, rather. YT Software construction is a trial and error process. T If that were true, software engineering would be in deep trouble. YT As a programmer, I can tell you it is indeed a trial and error process. Well, as an MSc student in Software Engineering, I hope we are talking about different degrees of trial and error in a released program here. I agree that a program is never quite finished, but that should relate to features rather than bugs. You alpha- and beta-test a program before you release it; the released version should be virtually bugfree. There will usually still be some minor bugs, but if you use a sound engineering approach - whichever life cycle you want to use, there is always the testing stage before implementation - and make heavy use of the 'reuse' concept (which admittedly is not always possible to a large degree), the bugs should be so few that a user would find them only occasionally. If the bugs are found quickly, then you have to revise your testing strategy! What we dealt with here, namely the v1.52 release series, contained a number of known major bugs, and that is just unexcusable. A bug in a release version is a programming mistake that wasn't known before the release; I hope you agree at least on this one. To sell a version that has known major bugs is beyond my comprehension. Example: I hear the bug that people could not choose their DUN connection in the Connection Center (greyed out under certain circumstances) has been fixed in v1.52f. I don't know whether it is really fixed, because the beta testers have no beta to test, and newbies will find out now. The connection is a core part of an email client, and this bug was known well before 1.52 was uploaded. What is your excuse for Rit? YT Yes, there is an engineering style approach, Is there any other professional approach to software development? Oh yeah, I forgot: trial and error. No ma'am, not for me. ;-) YT but this is not bricks and mortar; this is software. Does this mean it is OK to release a program that has known major bugs? YT From 1.51 to 1.52 is not going to improve your sex life. Pretty sure about YT that. T You are right. How did you know that? YT Womens' intuition. You are a step ahead of me then. I have no access to that resource. ;-) YT And 1.52x to 1.52y is not likely help much either. T Really? In that case, what is the improvement? ;-) YT Does the dishes now. ^_^ I *do* need it! :-) -- Cheers, Thomas. Moderator der deutschen The Bat! Beginner Liste.
