Retrieving a deleted account
Hello TBUDL, I have successfully configured to work with IMAP. Works fine now. However, once the IMAP was configured I had moved all files and everything was ok, so I deleted the POP account, but i noticed that all my quick templates were stored in the POP account which was shared and now it is also deleted. I shall be thankful if you would assist me to retrieve this account or atleast the QTN file. -- best regards rizvi Current version is 3.99.27.2 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Mailwasher does not automatically delete on the server. Instead you run it as a separate program and it shows you all incoming email before you retrieve these emails to your email programs. It has a leaning filter but you can inspect all flagged emails prior to processing. Once you process, then "good" emails are either downloaded to your pc into your email program or deleted on the server and never make it onto your pc. -- Tom using TheBat! 3.99.29 on XP Current version is 3.99.27.2 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

No automated figures available but I would guess 95% to 99% effective. Very few falsely moved to spam folders once you get the filters right. I generally get very little spam (1-5 per day) but every few months I will get a deluge of about 3000-4000 spread over a few days. My filters usually only miss about 25-30 of this deluge, just means my spam is predictable.

I store messages upto 5 months old. Well, this should pose no problem. You can do this with filters, server-side or local. ++ I tried the configuration once more of the IMAP interface (actually this is my 3rd time that i am configuring since i deleted the account on previous two occasions as i did not understand the settings and working out of the IMAP). works fine now. just to double check with you, 1. once the mail is moved from the IN box and this IN box folder is purged (Folder > purge+compress), the messages are automatically deleted from the server. 2. tried a filter. once received in the IN box it does not get filtered. but after some time when manual filtering is done, it works fine. how can i solve this problem? could it be configured to automatically go into the filter folder when the message appears in the In box itself (like the POP interface)? my situation is that i dont delete any mail, but move them to the back up X (IN) and Y (SENT) folders respectively whilst others are automatically moved into the filter folders. +++ >>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.

Well, you can have folders on the server in which you can store you mail. When you have fully synchronized them (so the full message is local), you can move them to a local folder freeing up space on the server. + i do not wish to have folders on the server but i have instead set to view full messages which means, i guess, is that the entire message is down loaded and ofcourse later on i move them to the X folder at the end of the day. in the manage IMAP folders (account-->imap commands-->manage imap folders) where you set the IN box to synchronize (this option is selected), i have accidentally deleted the sub-folders coming under the INBOX which is OUT, SENT and TRASH. will this cause a problem? since the IN box synchronization is selected under ALL MESSAGES, it is only this box that works with the server directly, right? > do i have to move the messages from IN box to X > box and then run the filters from here? You can have filters moving messages from the inbox to any folder (local or server-side). as said previously, i triggered one filter to check with IMAP but it is not automatically moved into filtered folder but only after sometime that when manually done, it is moved. what may be the reason for this? will be pleased to hear from you and thank you in advance for same. -- best regards rizvi Current version is 3.99.27.2 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

It depends on your synchronization settings. Please review them: they should be fairly self explanatory. > Is it a copy of the messages that appears in your IN box? No it _is_ the messages on the server. Delete one - and it's gone on the server (after you "purge"). > Then, how do i > activate the filters for this IN box if the messages are itself not > physically downloaded? You can have server-side filtering and local filtering. If you retrieve message structures with message headers you can filter on some thing but in order to filter on contents in the text of the mail you need to synchronize Headers and text. This way you can filter as with POP3. > do i have to move the messages from IN box to X > box and then run the filters from here? You can have filters moving messages from the inbox to any folder (local or server-side). > do you mean that the folders in the server should be created or the > desktop client that i use? To get the full use of IMAP you should create folders on the server. Again, you _could_ do a full sync. and just move the messages to a local folder, but then you're not really working with IMAP as it is intended. > 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. You can have folders on IMAP servers, too. Maybe not sub-folders - I think this depends on the server. > Sorry, but the IMAP is still a bit complicated for me, but would > really want to set it up to run smoothly. I think you should google a bit for IMAP in order to understand what that protocol entails.
