But one important point of my requirements is missing: The memory usage is more increased instead of being decreased. I want the archived emails out of the TheBat directory. What I want is to "outsource" old emails to reduce the (USB) disk usage from about 1GB down to 600MB for example. Or to generally limit the disk usage to 500MB or whatsoever. -- Regards, Harald Current version is 3.95.08 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Re[2]: Forwarding
> Do those persons appear in other groups with an empty forwarding template? > What happens when you address the whole group with Roelof, Right you are again! The person was in another group with a different forwarding template. Once I changed that one, the forward worked correctly. That brings up a second question. I have about 15 groups under one address book folder, and I'd like to have them all have the same templates. Must I change each group one at a time or is there a way to make changes to all the groups at once? The account level won't work because there are other address book folders which I need to have different templates.

TBUDL Mission Statement
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Greetings TB Listers, This is your monthly message from the moderation team to remind you of the primary purpose of this discussion list. To review the list rules, follow the link at the end of this message. Before posting a question to the list, please check The Bat! User's FAQ at: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/FAQ.html and the list archive at http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED] To subscribe, send a message to mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] There is also a beginners 'MAQ' (Most Asked Questions) available by clicking here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] and sending the resulting message. TBUDL Mission statement The TBUDL list has been set up for the purpose of discussing The Bat! and how to use it. It is a community of users ready and able to help new users get to grips with some of the capabilities of this flexible email client. More complex issues are discussed on the TBTECH list (see below for details). Simply send messages to mailto:TBUDL@thebat.dutaint.com to send it to the whole list. See the notes at the end of this message for details about how to manage your list membership or to leave the list. It would probably be a good idea for you to set up a folder to keep TBUDL messages in. If you do this, the next most useful thing to have in place is an automatic filter to move mail from your inbox into your TBUDL folder. Set up a filter for incoming mail which looks for: Header Field [Reply-To] Contains [EMAIL PROTECTED] The Roguemoticon Project It's nice to see your contact's face in the header ... and for them to see yours. That's what roguemoticons are all about. If you wish to add yourself, then you'll need to visit this site http://www.pcwize.com/thebat What this place will do for you is to allow you to create an account, add your image and then let you download a .ZIP file containing all the files you'll need to be able so see people's faces without having to send or receive any real images in any messages. To trigger the roguemoticon display in the message header for anyone reading your message using TB, you have the choice of using the X-Rogue: header or a signature trigger. How to use a signature trigger The image is triggered by a 'Handle' you've defined in your account, and when that Handle appears in a message it gets replaced on the client side by the corresponding image. A handle could look like anything you want it to look like pretty much. For example: :Leif_Gregory: Just add this text to your standard message signature block. How to create the X-Rogue: header You can do that with this macro: %SetHeader('X-Rogue',':your_handle:')%- in your templates for this and other tb-lists. However, the macro alone won't do the trick. TB'll say: 'Hey, that's not any RFC822 header I know about', so you'll have to define it as such: Options .. Preferences .. Messages .. Message headers .. 'Add' Now you'll get a pop-up to define the header Display as: X-Rogue (or whatever, it isn't very important) RFC header: X-Rogue Uncheck: 'This field is an address list' (because it isn't) Check: 'Allow this field to be edited in the message editor' Uncheck: 'Display this field in the scrollable part of the header pane' Now you're done and every TB-user can see your lovable face when they've installed the roguemoticons. For you to see peoples faces: To get this going, you should be running TB! v2.12 or later. Fetch the following file: http://www.pcwize.com/thebat/smileys/rogues.zip Unzip it to the 'Images' directory that's in your TB! installation directory: C:\Program Files\The Bat!\Images You should now have a directory called 'rogues' containing many images as well as the file 'rogues.msl' in your Images directory. Go into the preferences, and bring up the View/Editor options. Now hit Shift-CTRL-Alt-T while TB! is in focus. This will re-fetch TB!'s smiley set from disk and load the new images.

Archiving old emails
Hi, I am trying to find a solution to backup/archive old emails. My intention is to put them out of TheBat Voyager to save space on my USB memory stick. Frequently I get emails with large attachments, so I would like to archive (even triggered manually if necessary) old mails, e.g. older than 1 year, on CD or somewhere similar. The usual archiving and backup tasks within TheBat/Voyager probably work, but they need to import the files back to TheBat/Voyager if I need to search within them. My wish is to be able to search the archives without importing so that I do not need to blow up my Voyager/mail directory again. Is there any possibility for such an archiving idea? If not, what else can I do? -- Regards, HF Current version is 3.95.08 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

If I get a message with URLs from someone I know, I will click on them whether they are long, short, tiny or (perhaps) hidden by HTML (you know, 'click HERE'). I would have trusted on any links posted by Maxim. I don't know if I would trust any posted by you though ;-) -- Best regards, Miguel A.
