Installing the Bat! on XP
Hello tbudl, I recently upgraded to Windows XP from 98. Its all gone horribly wrong. I chose a fresh install rather than an upgrade which means I have to reinstall The Bat!. When I try I can get TB working in one user account OK but when I try to run it in any other XP account I get --- The Bat! Cannot access directory C:\DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS\user name\!C:\DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS\ALL USERS\DESKTOP\MAIL I can't seem to find any special instructions for installing TB on XP anywhere on the net and I desperately don't want to be forced into using Outlook as I've been a happy registered Bat! user for several years and appreciate the benefits. Any pointers please. -- Best regards, Mike mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Using The Bat! v1.51 on Windows NT - 5.1 Build - 2600 Service Pack 1 Current version is 1.62 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Jurgen wrote: Where did you get these filters from? I recommend that you visit the Library on the FAQ site - there are good instructions for implementing these filters there. Line wrap in the source filter can really mess you up with them. Hi, On my machine, it wasn't a problem with line wrap. I installed the filters the other day, changed the submit address and double-checked that I had a c:\temp directory. I could not get the Submit spam to SpamCop filter to work initially. It would create the export.txt file but would not create a new message to SpamCop. I copied and pasted the filter from my TB into a text file and compared it to the one posted. Other than the expected differences (Source, Target and New Addr) everything was the same. I then examined the template for creating a new message in the filter and the template contained: %put='C:\temp\export.txt' I deleted that and reinserted the line by using the macro button. The template now contained the following: %PUT=C:\Temp\export.txt I tested the filter and it worked perfectly. The key was the double quotes. I then copied the working filter to a text file and compared it to the filter on the web. The difference is in the line NewTemplate: %put\3D\27C:\5Ctemp\5Cexport.txt\27\0D\0A This caused my machine to use single quotes. The line in my now working filter reads: NewTemplate: %PUT\3D\22C:\5CTemp\5Cexport.txt\22\0D\0A So it seems as if, at least on my machine, the 27 is interpreted as single quotes and the 22 is double quotes. I poked around in the archive, but I couldn't find any messages relating to this. Maybe I didn't use the right search string. Once I got that to work, I was then able to test out the filter for automatically launching IE when you receive an accepted message from SpamCop. That worked after another bit of tinkering, changing the SpamCop email address and activating the filter. I got the filter from The Bat How Do I? instead of from the Macro, Filter and Template library. The filters are different. If I had used the filter from the library, the only change I needed to make was substituting my address for Marck's in the recipient string. (BTW, the Submit Spam to SpamCop filters in the How Do I and the library seem to be the same.) This is a great list. Thanks to everyone who posts.

Re: Address book entries not working after converting from Eudora
I tried the solution, and it will work to a degree, but it will require touching every single group, massaging them all into CSV or TXT files, and then importing them. That just isn't a reasonable solution. I'm still looking for a way to move the address books I had under Eudora containing the addresses and groups out from under the Personal Address Book where TB put them. That would probably be the ultimate solution. TB does advertise that it converts Eudora which is why I moved. I even paid for 5 copies so that I could convert a few family members too. But not converting address book entries correctly may make me reconsider. I'm beginning to think I should have waited to closer to the end of the 30 day trial before shelling out the hard cash. P.S. Actually Roelf, I did cancel a meeting to 700 people who I'd not emailed to before as a group. We have a newsletter, regular meetings, and a discussion list somewhat like this one we use. (Not everyone is on the discussion list). Regular email to the members isn't something we do very often. Just don't have that need at the moment. I don't believe I did it more than 5 - 6 times last year - twice due to weather. Hallo Jim, On Sat, 8 Feb 2003 14:27:53 -0500GMT (8-2-03, 20:27 +0100, where I live), you wrote: JK If what I'm reading makes sense, what you are both suggesting is JK that I need to create a single address entry for anyone whose JK email address I might want, Yes. JK and then create a group, and then associate each individual email JK address with the group. No, I'd go the other way around. Create a group and add members to it, but that's a minor issue. JK For example, if a club I was associated with had 10,000 members, JK and I wanted to send them all an email from the club - let's say JK to tell them a meeting was cancelled due to a blizzard (which I JK just did actually in Eudora), I would first have to individually JK enter 10,000 email addresses to accomplish this? If that's the JK case the blizzard would be over before I was done... :- This JK can't be true. Of course it isn't true. What you're suggesting is ridiculous. You wouldn't cancel a meeting with 1 people via e-mail when you'd never mailed with them before. The concept is that you've got them in your address book (AB) and that you maintain your AB whenever there's a new member, a different address or a quitting member. JK I couldn't just dump all of the email addresses from the database, JK and paste them into a group somehow? Yes you could, depending on the database you've got those addresses in. It would mean that that you processed all those addresses to address book entries associated with a single group. JK But Roelof's images raise another question. When TB converted my JK Eudora address lists, it dropped each of the address books, which JK each contained groups, I had under TBs 'The Personal Address JK Book.' How do I move them out from under it? I tried cutting and JK pasting with no success. Cut and paste works for me when transporting AB-entries from one group to another, so I suppose that's not what you meant. It's possible that the concept behind TB's and Eudora's ABs are so different that it's not possible to do a really good conversion. But let's start from the beginning. You've got a database with 1 blizzard evaders. Can you export that list to a csv-file (csv = comma separated value), that means you've got a file that contains per member one line containing: first name, last name, e-mail address If so, export to that and import that into your AB First create the AB-group 'No more blizzards' Select that group and do File - Import from - Comma-separated That ought to do the trick. -- Jim Current version is 1.62 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

That would probably be the ultimate solution. You can drag and drop individual or selections of addressbook entries into groups within an addressbook, or to a new addressbook. In your situation, I might be tempted to create a new addressbook for each group (which you can then associate with individual TB Accounts), and then drag and drop the entries from your personal addressbook into the one you have created. I started off with one addressbook, but I have since created 4 separate addressbooks to keep work contacts separate from personal ones. Some of the individual addressbooks have groups within them. It might be simplest to start import process again, and import the Eudora groups one at a time, and immediately drag the imported addresses from the personal addressbook into a new addressbook. The selection of multiple entries in the addressbook for drag and drop does not work very well, by the way! You have to select all the entries (using [ctrl]+[click] or [shift]+[click], but in order to drag the group, you have to start dragging from the last entry you clicked on (the currently selected one). If you click on one of the other highlighted entries, the selection is lost, and you drag just that entry.
