the bat! freezes when trying to compress/purge

2003-02-25 Thread Fiber

  Hi everyone,

I'm reporting this: Everytime I try to do some maintenance
stuff or if I want to just compress/purge everything for an account,
The Bat! freezes. In fact it keeps doing things (for some hours) until
Windows tells me that there is not enough virtual memory. I'm using
The Bat! 1.62 on a Windows 2000 SP3 and I have 512 Mo of RAM.

I found what folders are subject to this. For my main
account, that's the Outbox. For another account it's the 'sent'
folder. And those folders are BIG! How come my Outbox folder weighs
about 140 Mo??? I tried to delete the Outbox files for my main account
but it just recreated that big file...

  Hi,

Me again...

What about a shortcut key that would go to the next unread
message no matter in what account is this message? A sort of universal
CTRL + ]

RO> Close TB (without purge & compress)
RO> Reboot your computer
RO> Check your mail partition with scandisk
RO> Delete all temporary files from your disk (clean disk, or whatever
RO> it's called in the explorer)
RO> Disable your virusscanner and firewall
Did all that.

RO> Delete the messages.tbb and messages.tbi files from your outbox
And unfortunately I did that too. So I played it smart and first
exported all messages concerned by the future deletion to another
place. Then I deleted the .TBB and .TBI files. Relaunched The Bat!,
re-imported the messages and ran some maintenance (that went pretty
well).

Thanks a lot for your advice!

The Bat! is a great tool. Fantastic.
