Re: ATT: Marck re: filtering attachement extensions
Hello Marck. At 5:59 PM on Monday, November 26, 2001 you wrote the following on the posted subject 'ATT: Marck re: filtering attachement extensions': Marck name=.*\\.scr' Marck is the regexp equivalent. '.' is a regexp meaning any Marck character, '*' Marck means zero or more of the preceding character (or wildcard Marck special Marck character) and '\.' is the regexp for a real 'dot'. Thanks for explaining. Marck The problem is that the lower headers are not deemed by Marck filtering to Marck be a part of the kludges. Nor are they visible as a part of Marck the Marck body. So filtering is tricky. As you, yourself, discovered, its not only tricky but seems non-operational. I don't understand why TB! can't filter 'kludges' or 'anywhere' but not in this area. Or is it that the 'content' info revealed by (F9) are the 'headers' exclusively for the attachment? In trying to understand this, can I assume 'kludges' only refer to information that appears before the message?

Re: Keep Msg on Server for xxx Days!
Hi Eddie, maybe someone sent these messages to you with incorrect creation date. If you change system time on your system to oct.22nd and send an email to yourself you should be able to see if this is what happened. (Don't forget to set the system time back) I got this idea because there is a difference between the date when someone sends an email from his system (dependes on the time that is set there and it may be wrong! normally it is on the same or on the following day.) and on the other hand the date when the email is received by your email server. Tom EC On my account Properties I've set under Transportation | Mail EC Management to Radio Button to 'Leave Messages on Server' and ticket EC 'keep msg on server for xx days' to the Value of 30 Days. EC Now I see on my Server that I have almost 5000 mails where several EC are from Oct 22. and the next from Nov. 9.

Three redundant options?
Just noticed - what do Folder | Browse (and Account | Refresh Folders) and Folder | Refresh do that is useful? Folder | Browse appears to open the currently highlit message, which is pointless from the menu bar as there are are several more sensible ways of doing this, and the second two appear to do nothing at all - I don't even see the tell-tale flicker of something being refreshed. I appreciate that the second two might have some sort of meaning in multi-user situations, but with a single user they seem to be redundant.

Help with an spoiled Address Book
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi The Bat! mates, Yesterday, while fiddling around with LDaemon (an LDAP server integrated in MDaemon's SMTP/POP/IMAP server), I configured my main Address Book as associated with a LDAP server. It was that way before, only that it was incorrectly set up, thus not being able to establish actual connections with the LDAP server. Yet, when I got the configuration right, all my addresses (together with my beloved AB templates) were gone. I quickly disabled the LDAP connection, but my addresses were still not there. I then opened the .ADB file in a text editor and could see that the old addresses were still there. Whatever I did to the AB's configuration, though, I couldn't recover my old entries. I still have this (seemingly too late) backed up .ADB with all my entries inside. Is there any way to recover them? Should I write directly to the RIT guys directly? Any help will be MUCH appreciated, sine I do not want to go through the hassle of setting up all my mailing lists, relatives and friends' templates :-\ - - -- Best regards, Javier Marcet mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Whenever you find that you are on the side of the majority, it is time to reform. -- Mark Twain _ PGP Key-ID: 0xCAAD7064 | PGP Key: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?Subject=SendPGPKey Using The Bat! 1.54/10 under Windows NT 5.1 Build 2600 -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: PGP 7.1 Comment: Ensuring privacy and freedom of speech iQA/AwUBPAQef+VqpvHKrXBkEQLGXwCfWzCY+gu6HF2V5xnNHjmkhPnA/LMAoK/B TeNRCJG+G9/qernFNP3ZKWbh =sH+J -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Vers: 1.53d FAQ: http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com
New undesirable behavior
All: W2K Pro -- TB 1.53t. Seemingly out of nowhere, TB no longer polls my pop3 server when I open it when there is no connection active. It does summon the dialer, as it always has, but it does not poll the server, and there is no download. Once the connection establishes, F2 causes an immediate poll and download, as it should. If I open TB when there is an active connection already established, behavior is normal (poll and download). I am sure this is new behavior, where I have to initiate a poll via F2 when a new connection is established, but I cannot account for any system configuration change that might have caused this.
