FW: Re[3]: Best way to use The Bat on two home computers?
A typo on the note just sent to the list makes a sentence incomprehensible. I wrote, in error: "OK. I have successfully installed The Bat on the laptop and I have also successfully set up on the laptop as its Mail directory, a copy of the same directory that is on the laptop. What I intended to write is the following: "OK. I have successfully installed The Bat on the laptop and I have also successfully set up on the laptop as its Mail directory, a copy of the same MAIL directory that is on the DESKTOP." -- Avram Sacks Chicago Using The Bat ver 4.0.1.8 (desktop) or 4.0.2.0 (laptop) on Windows Pro XP sp2 Current version is 4.0.18 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
RE: Re[3]: Best way to use The Bat on two home computers?
Hi, Dan and other list members: Although I have kept the same subject line, because the subject remains the same, a more appropriate title, at this point would be "synchronization revisited."

I install TheBat!, all of its files, and half a dozen other >programs into that directory. Then the program syncs from one to the >other. OK. I have successfully installed The Bat on the laptop and I have also successfully set up on the laptop as its Mail directory, a copy of the same directory that is on the laptop. (Curiously, on the desktop that directory is in the The Bat! Folder within the program folder, while, on the laptop, it automatically established itself in the Applications Data directory.) I also changed settings so that whenever one machine downloads e-mail, it leaves it on the server for 14 days--a period that will be more than enough to insure that e-mail gets downloaded on to both. (Which, if I synchronize every night, I really wouldn't need to leave it on the server for more than 24 hours, I would think.) However, for synchronization, I can either use The Bat's own synchronization feature OR Dan Lester's recommendation to use the Directory Toolkit. Other than the fact that Directory Toolkit will allow me synchronize other folders, can anyone think of a reason why it is more preferable than The Bat's own synch function? Is there any reason why using The Bat's synch function might be preferred? Whether I synch using The Bat's own synch function or a third party software, what is it that I am synching? Is it merely the Mail directory? -- Avram Sacks Chicago Using The Bat ver 4.0.1.8 (desktop) or 4.0.2.0 (laptop) on Windows Pro XP sp2 Current version is 4.0.18 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

So I am not sure, and the sender has no idea, what he is doing wrong. But it would appear that his attachments are not being attached, and this is what had me confused.

Re: How to point TB to by Opera browser?
Hello Michael, > Where do I add the path and application of my browser in TB? I > really can't see anywhere to change this in TB. I'd say this is rather an OS setting, which program to use for HTML protocol links. You might want to check the setting in Opera itself: Tools -> Preferences -> Advanced -> Programs (on the left) -> "Check if Opera is the default browser on startup" -> Details There should be a checkbox at least at: - HTML- Documents - http - https Hope this helps! -- Martin TB! 4.0.20.2 on Windows XP 5.1 Service Pack 2 Current version is 4.0.18 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
