Re: Fwd: Bug (maybe wrong understanding of RFCs): an encoding selected by the user sometimes silently replaced with 7-bit US-ASCII

In fact, at the early age TB! was functioning your way (i.e. it was setting character set even though there were no characters from that CS in the message at all), but we changed it to the current behaviour after cases caused by systems described above... So, basically, there is no problem on our side to assign non-ASCII character set for messages with only 7-bits characters, but this may be troublesome - this is why we don't want to do that :-) -- Cheers!

Re: Fwd: Bug (maybe wrong understanding of RFCs): an encoding selected by the user sometimes silently replaced with 7-bit US-ASCII
Hello Stefan, On Mon, 26 Jan 2004 09:30:00 +0200 GMT (26/01/2004, 14:30 +0700 GMT), Stefan Tanurkov wrote: The behaviour you propose cause more problems because some systems (especially those functioning in the US and Canada) do not know anything about character sets other than us-ascii (and ISO, if one is lucky) and that caused problem with message processing and the recipient may not get the message. Hm. If he does use a high ASCII character, the encoding will not be changed by TB. In fact, at the early age TB! was functioning your way (i.e. it was setting character set even though there were no characters from that CS in the message at all), but we changed it to the current behaviour after cases caused by systems described above... Oh, but if the recipient cannot receive 8-bit character encoded messages, how would he write in kyrillic and get replies? And why would the sender explicitely choose 8-bit? If the recipinet cannot receive 8-bit, there is a reason not to send him message thus encoded; if if he does, what point is there in changing it? I mean, it is between sender and recipient. So, basically, there is no problem on our side to assign non-ASCII character set for messages with only 7-bits characters, but this may be troublesome - this is why we don't want to do that :-) What you do is change the encoding despite the sender's explicit wish. -- Cheers, Thomas.

Re: Bayesit
Once I copied and installed the developer's primer files (http://legacy.sheltonbbs.com/~jmmorse/Bayesit/) this thing works great. hasn't missed a one, threshold 30. and no false positives. can't find the instructions url so I'll just copy them here: I have uploaded my entire Bayesit directory, so that anyone can download it and have the pleasure of using one of the finest spam filters anywhere. You will not have to train it with so many emails, like before, just download and install Bayesit from here: {http://klirik.narod.ru/usefuls/bayesiteng.htm} ...then download these files {http://legacy.sheltonbbs.com/~jmmorse/Bayesit/} and then unzip them to your Application Data directory, it will overwrite your Bayesit folder. Or you can unzip them to a temp folder and then move them to the Documents and Settings/Application Data folder manually. (you should already have the Bayesit folder there since you installed Bayesit, just overwrite it) For example mine is found at: C:\Documents and Settings\John\Application Data\Bayesit After downloading all 6 files, then double-click the one named BayesIt.part01.exe When you unzip these files it will replace your Bayesit folder in your Application Data Directory. Here are a list of all the files (with file sizes) you will need to download: {BayesIt.part01.exe} (1.4m) {BayesIt.part02.rar} (1.4m) {BayesIt.part03.rar} (1.4m) {BayesIt.part04.rar} (1.4m) {BayesIt.part05.rar} (1.4m) {BayesIt.part06.rar} (583k) Don't worry about training Bayesit with a bunch of messages, just go through the motions, because this will replace all the training anyway. -- Dan mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (dropped by The Bat, version 2.02.3 CE) MyMacros 1.07 Current version is 2.02.3 CE | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

I can therefore test quickly. :) The connection to my IMAP server from work is very slow. It takes a long time to create folders and move messages. I don't filter messages at work.

So the problem is with filtering from an IMAP folder to a local common folder. This doesn't seem to be possible. I just tried it and more than I expected happened. I did the following: - I created a common folder - I then adjusted one of my read filters to filter to it. - I then moved one of the target messages to my Inbox and marked it unread. - I opened the message where it was marked as read and moved to another message. Not only was it not moved, but another message appeared with no visible headers. Only the folder flag was visible. On looking at the message source, there was a lot of gibberish. After that, the Inbox was stuck. I had to restart SecureBat! to free things up. On the next try at autofiltering to the common folder nothing happened. I switched back the target folder to an IMAP folder and it worked again. Strange bug. KG This explains why I cannot filter to common folders.

But if filtering across accounts will become KG available in the future, I don't see why filtering to common folders KG couldn't be implemented as well. Agreed. KG The problem I see with filtering across accounts is the heavier KG traffic and server load. Is it substantially more complicated? Other clients, namely Mulberry already have this ability. So I don't see why this shouldn't be possible, especially if the accounts are on the same IMAP server. KG The problem I may run into (and this may be because of the new real KG implementation of IMAP) is that for my business account, I have a filter KG that redirects messages to my cell phone, giving me a notification of KG when I get an e-mail. 99% of the time, the small amount of info sent is KG enough for me (my carrier truncates messages that are too long/too big). Without autofiltering, this isn't possible, so a TB! IMAP account would have you stuck. KG Also.. (get ready to roll your eyes...) I have been testing on my KG laptop, right? Well, guess what genius was testing on his laptop with KG accounts that were also being hit by the desktop running 1.62r... At KG the very least, this screwed up read flags. Who knows what other KG trouble this caused. I will remember to shut down the desktop while KG testing on the laptop. Note that with two proper IMAP clients this shouldn't matter. I have ThunderBird running now on this laptop. It's polling the same IMAP account that SecureBat! is polling as we speak. No problems at all. KG Assuming that (like me) most of that mail would not contain KG attachments, running into server space problems won't be an issue.
