Does it for any reason also listen at port 110 for incoming messages? rg I am sure someone out there has done/is doing this (or something rg like it) and can convey some wisdom as to setup considerations! Since you use Spampal for incoming and XRay for outgoing messages, there should be no conflict. If there is, my first guess is that XRay also listens at port 110, which it shouldn't. -- Cheers, Thomas.

ISSUE: Shell [Command, Visual Basic] - FOCUS WINDOW [TheBat]
Hello! I have a [Visual Basic] Focus Window problem with TheBat. I have created an application that use the IPC-funtionality. Basically, the application from time to time generates IPC- files that are collected into a main IPC-file. This file is then pushed into TheBat by way of the Shell command in VB, the VB-line looks as follows: RunIT = Shell(TheBatExecutableFile + /BATCH: + Chr(34) _ + GlobalPathTempDirectory + js(tb-bridge).ipc + Chr(34), 0) As for the execution of the Batch, it works as expected. However, each time this command is executed, TheBat focuses itself. The , 0 in the VB line is the windowstyle and means Window is hidden and focus is passed to the hidden window. Using , 0 should remain TheBat hidden, yet each time an IPC-batch is forwarded, the already running TheBat is restored to front and maximixed. Why isn't TheBat respecting the windowstyle? -- St PS! The windowstyle named argument has these values: vbHide 0 Window is hidden and focus is passed to the hidden window. vbNormalFocus 1 Window has focus and is restored to its original size and position. vbMinimizedFocus 2 Window is displayed as an icon with focus. vbMaximizedFocus 3 Window is maximized with focus. vbNormalNoFocus 4 Window is restored to its most recent size and position. The currently active window remains active. vbMinimizedNoFocus 6 Window is displayed as an icon. The currently active window remains active.

128518 * IMAP configuration
Hi Mr Peter, On 25-01-2008 17:29, you wrote in mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED]: once the server is cleared, messages disappear since no messages are stored in the server. i guess this is what IMAP is supposed to do. Er, the point with IMAP is that messages are (also) stored on the server. 1. how can i keep all the incoming messages fully downloaded and saved to my IN box (like POP where once downloaded it is saved in the IN box). Account properties Manage IMAP folders. Make sure all folders you want to have available locally are set to synchronize to Full messages for your information, messages that has been exchanged for the last 5 months are always stored in the computer by a separate In and SENT folders created under another main folder (X). Well, the whole point of IMAP is that messages are stored on the server. However, you can create folders on the IMAP server (like with POP3) so you can move the messages there. 2. in POP mode, ctrl+shift+F2 gives the despatcher to delete, download mail etc, from the server. in IMAP how is this done? how can one delete the mail from the server? ctrl+shift+F2 does not work for IMAP? When you delete (and purge) mail in IMAP it is deleted from the server. You can set TB to download (synchronize) only headers. This way you can preview headers à la dispatcher. 3. i have abt 25 filters activated to ease up and check PRIORITY messages. i did some test messages with filtering conditions, but when mail appears in the IN box, it is not filtered since i guess that the mail is only a copy appearing as it is on the server and that the mail itself is not downloaded. how can i get around this situation? Account properties Properties IMAP Fine-tune. Make sure Retrieve messages structures with message bodies and auto filtering is checked. It might also make sense to make sure the filters are only triggered on the inbox and sent folders of your account. 4. finally, can i convert my POP account to IMAP or do i have to create a new account and go over again on the settings? any sort cuts? I am not sure. I think you may be able to convert it. ++ Thank you so much for assisting me by your reply. Appreciated. Still IMAP is very confusing for me. Under a normal set-up, it is really good where online messages appear as they arrive into the mail server, but the other set ups like filtering and all that stuff is definitely greek to me. However, may be with further study and information, I could set it up to work as normal as like my POP mail. any way, what I did to overcome this situation was that since our company's email is operated under FASTMAIL, I have installed their FASTCHECK which uses the IMAP interface. So, when ever new mail arrives at my server, a small window opens showing the arrived message (from address + subject). Ofcourse then I have to down load same to view and reply. We are talking about seconds here, just like the IMAP interface. This tool, FASTCHECK too is great. Thanks once more for your kind help. -- Best Regards Rizvi Current version is 3.99.27.2 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

128518 * IMAP configuration
Hi Mr Peter, On 28-01-2008 06:20, you wrote in Well, the point of the IMAP protocol is that all e-mail is stored on the server instead of locally. yes of course they do, as you had clearly explained to me. You can then decide how much of the message you want to to synchronize locally. Maybe you just want headers or maybe you want the full message. Actually, since this is not my personal email but it is our company email, I want all messages to be downloaded, just like the POP interface and what i do is store the the IN messages in a different folder called X and the SENT messages are stored in another folder called Y. I store messages upto 5 months old. The beauty of IMAP is that if you need your mail from another computer or via webmail, all your mail (also old mail) is there, in the folders you have created for it. This is very important especially during after office hours or during a week end. I check mail leaving them on the server, during this period and once in office, down load them all and clear the server due to restricted space allocation on the server. Let me get this straight, once the IMAP is configured and your server comes online, the IN box is filled with messages as appearing on your server, but the IN box does not have the messages downloaded? Is it a copy of the messages that appears in your IN box? Then, how do i activate the filters for this IN box if the messages are itself not physically downloaded? do i have to move the messages from IN box to X box and then run the filters from here? I do have filters activated for IN and SENT boxes and i must admit the filters and sub-filters just works fine for me. Priority is given to filtered messages. do you mean that the folders in the server should be created or the desktop client that i use? in our server it got only IN,OUT,SENT and TRASH but in my desktop client (TB), i got a lot of folders, sub-folders, filters and sub-filters since i use POP interface. Sorry, but the IMAP is still a bit complicated for me, but would really want to set it up to run smoothly. i use TB v.3.0.1.33. May be this is an old version but would like to stick with it since i dont want any problems trying to install newer versions and lose all what i got, incase of a problem. -- best regards rizvi Current version is 3.99.27.2 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
