Macro options

[Charlie Turner (ceejay)]

Composed on 08/10/2000, at 14:09 GMT

 I've spent some time looking through the TBUDL archive, and
 discovered a couple of macro options that I'd not seen
 before. I'm beginning to wonder if there might be more macro
 options available than are actually listed when hitting the
 macro button when composing a template.

 For example I couldn't find the following: %QUOTESTYLE &
 %QINCLUDE which are just two macro options I discovered while
 going back through the archive. Or have I missed a complete
 section on TB! macro's somewhere?!

 Go to: Options-> Editor Preferences-> Select the "Display" tab.
 From this window you can change the font, for another fixed width
 Font. Hit "Change" button (top right), and select your preferences.
 When finished hit "OK" and you've made your changes.

Original message not quoted?

On 02/10/2000, at 22:57 

Don't know if anyone can throw any light on why when I attempt to reply to one
particular message the original message is not quoted. Unless that is
I choose to display the RFC-822 headers for the original message!?

I do have %QUOTES in the reply template. When replying to other messages
in the some folder the original message *is* quoted, which confirms to
me that I have no apparent problems with the template.

In case it's relevant here's the header:

Ok, here's something else to think about. My firewall is set up to ask
for permission when any new installation attempts to communicate for
the first time. Every program I've installed since setting up the
firewall has fired this rule and asked for permission, that is all
except oneTB!

That describes my experience exactly, I guess it's nothing to bother

   As a result the first column of the message line in the folder was

Sadly no. I can confirm that TB *still* insists on trying to establish
a dial-up connection. I am as certain as I can be that I've tried just
about every permutation of settings in Network properties.

I am as certain as I can be that is a bug and will report it. It is
worth mentioning, that this bug won't show up for everyone. I believe
this may only happen when the connection is dropped remotely. My
dial-up provider operates a two hour cut off, plus due to over
subscription of this particular service line dropping is a pretty
regular occurrence too. I know what you're going to say change your
provider. Sadly for a number of reasons it's not that simple.

Also  using  "Ctrl  Shift -" will only collapse the complete thread if
the  highest post in the thread is selected when using this particular
key stroke.

Aha
Ctrl Shift + opens the thread
Ctrl Shift - closes it

Reading or writing e-mail off-line... hitting an off-line button would
prevent auto-checking of mailboxes. Those with permanent connections

this. Only those who establish intermittent connections would have a
need fro this.

Precisely my point Thomas, I wouldn't have expected it to - but in my
case it does!

I only had my main account properties Networking checked to use
Account Specific Network settings... which could of course be part of
the problem. I've un-checked this option, lets see what happens.

Good point Tony, I really was being picky. I was interrupted part way
through that original message and left out the main reason for sending
it. This point was intended as a prelude to asking how I position the
cursor within quoted text in a reply - now asked in a separate
message.

Good  question  Paul, I've puzzled over that one too - I bet there's a
key stroke for it. For me a right click menu option to expand/collapse
individual threads would be a nice option.

   Thanks  Tobias, it looks as though I'm going to have to keep an
   eye on things eh. Luckily on-line charges are not going to be a
   problem  as  I  pay  a  flat  rate  monthly  fee.  Its more the
   inconvenience  of  having  the  TB attempting to dial out which
   freaks out my auto-dialler when it can't pick up a dial tone.

Cursor postion (&) Netorking settings

[Charlie Turner (ceejay)]

On 25/09/2000, at 21:17 

  Can  anyone tell me how/if I can position the cursor precisely where
  I want it to appear in the editor window? For example, if I go to my
  address  book  and  select an entry; right click> new> message - the
  editor  window  opens  with the cursor in the To: header field, why?
  I've  already  selected  the  addressee  from  the address book. To
  be picky I'd like the cursor precisely where I specify it in the
  respective template

  Does  anyone else think an on-line/off-line button for the main tool
  bar  a useful idea. The main reason I ask is I have TB set up to use
  Dial-up  networking | Use an existing connection when available | No
  automatic dial for periodical checking. Trouble is the ISP I use for
  dial-up  has  a  two  hour  cut off, and it can - at busy times - be
  difficult  re-establishing a connection. I have a couple of accounts
  set  to  check  mail boxes every 5 minutes by default, as a result I
  have  TB  trying  to  establish  a connection at the same time as my
  auto-dialer. This is despite my default instructions in TB for no
  automatic dialing(?) Perhaps I'm misunderstanding this part of TB
  and should be using; Local Area Network or manual connection in
  Network properties?

That one's not for me Krister, I'd rather TB team concentrate on
developing their email client to even greater heights. I'd guess most
Bat users fit under the heading of decerning power users, as such I
suspect they would have their preferences regarding a similar spec
newsreader. After years of honing my newsreader filters and regex
rules etc. I now have it precisely the way I want it.
