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

MK As a result of this behaviour combined with some other MUAs' (e.g.

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.

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 :-)

I had previously used a work around similar to the one you are

There are two ways a message can be marked as read.

- you manually mark it read.

- it's automatically marked as read as defined in the account

Read filters will be auto executed only when

a) messages are automatically flagged as read by your defined time

Hmmm. They work no differently for IMAP, so if you have them working
for POP then they should be working for IMAP.

By the way, if your connection isn't fast, then messages will not be
moved right away but on the next sync operation.

Try dragging and dropping a message to another folder. If your
connection is fast, the operation should be immediately carried out as
if it were POP. However, if the connection is slow, it would seem as
if nothing happened. At the next sync operation, TB! will send
commands to the server to carry out the move operation and then the
folders will be sync'd to reflect the move.

Could this be the problem with your read filters?

kg What about folders that are not on the server? Are they
kg automatically created during the sync process?

I don't understand what you're asking there. How would a local folder
be automatically created during a sync operation?

kg What about folders set to NOT sync? It looks like moving items to
kg folders not set to sync marks the item for deletion.

When you move a message from one folder to another, the copy in the
source folder is marked for deletion while a copy is placed in the
target folder. The copy in the source folder is permanently removed
when the folder is compressed or expunged, expunged being the IMAP
specific term used.

kg I will double-check that behavior, but that is what I want - if I
kg move a message to a common folder for reference/archiving/etc.,
kg marking it for deletion on the server - only after the move -
kg would be great.

I don't have any common folders here, but let's try here and see. I
have a slow connection here at work.

OK. I dragged and dropped the messages just fine. I'm not surprised
with this since the source IMAP folders are set to fully sync with the
servers. As a result, I have cached copies of messages. The moved
messages were removed from the source IMAP folders list, i.e., marked
for deleteion, and if I choose to compress/expunge, they'll be
permanently removed.

Do you have web access to your IMAP account/s?

Usually, if you do, you can create filters for web based e-mail
accounts. These are the filters I'm referring to. Not very fancy, but
could save a lot of trouble.

I do have admin control of my IMAP server. However, all IMAP accounts
are accessible via a web based client type interface. One can create
filters from there.

 I don't understand what you're asking there. How would a local folder
 be automatically created during a sync operation?

When a folder is created, you have the choice of whether is syncs or
not.  If no, it remains local only, right?  If it is synched with the
server, it gets created on the server, right?

Yes, I can *manually* move messages to common folders.  I was trying to
move messages to common folders with an auto-filter.  I had set up a
hierarchy of folders that were outside my mail accounts.  For me, this
was the best way to organize business mail as well as personal projects,
because the source messages didn't always come from the same account.  I
didn't want my folders tied to a specific mail account.

Perhaps this isn't a good way to do things when using IMAP?

move to a folder within the account (set to sync with server).

I suspect I may be doing something or have some setting wrong.  This may
be something obvious that I've just missed



 I'd recommend trying the latest beta if you're an IMAP user. The last

I did some experimenting and found that you can export a PGP encrypted
message (either inlined or pgp/mime) to a file in the Unix mailbox
format.

Edit the exported file with a text editor and _cut_ the PGP portions
to the clipboard where you can use GPG or PGP Tray to decrypt it.

Paste the decrypted text back into the exported file and save your
changes. Then you can use the Tools menu to import the updated Unix
file back into the message base.

The end result is a decrypted message complete with the kludges.

Although this method is certainly more labor intensive than using the

 Any high ASCII letter can never be 7bit data, - that's right, and
 that's what RFC2045 says. What it does _not_ say is that low ASCII
 (like the Latin letter t) is intrinsically bound to be represented
 as US-ASCII, and _not_ as KOI8-R or even UTF-8, for that matter.

I agree with you. But see Stefan's message.

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.

At home, my IMAP server is right beside me on the LAN. I don't have to
wait forever for things to happen. 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. It would take too long. All filtering is done from home with TB!
or on the server. I only read and reply to mail from work. I do only an
occasional message move or deletion.

KG Actually, yes.  I believe filtering to another folder WITHIN THAT
KG ACCOUNT does in fact work.  Will double-check, but I'm pretty sure that

Ok, good. 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.  By their very

Yes. That's the way to do it. However, that seems to be disabled in

KG If you cannot filter across accounts, then filtering to common folders
KG isn't going to happen.  But if filtering across accounts will become

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.

Hello bats,

is there a way to configure the Connection Center to fetch mail
account by account and not on all accounts at the same time?

As I use POPFile with Allow concurrent POP3 connections turned off
this will lead to timeouting of the accounts that get fetched in the

You can set individual accounts to *not* fetch mail by choosing the

There isn't a way to select a bunch of accounts  have TB check only
