Re: SSL SMTP Problems

My guess is that once it gets set wrong, something (in The Bat or Gmail?) doesn't get reset. Try deleting the account and starting with a new one.

On Tuesday, August 26, 2008, Gunivortus Goos scripted: But in TB you don't need that, TB has a built-in option for cookies. Just gather your favourite cookies in a plain ASCII file (a .txt file, f.i. made with notepad) and save that somewhere, f.i. in your The Bat directory. Then rightclick the mouse on a folder in the folder tree. Choose 'Properties', then under Template 'New message'. Put the cursor in the right window near above your sig delimiter, where you want to appear the cookie, Then rightclick again and choose: 'Cookie from a file' Then led the upcoming window to your cookies file. Done. Do the same with Reply under Template. Greetings Gunivortus Goos, 13:49, Tuesday, August 26, 2008 Yes, but Kookiejar manages the cookies and selects them randomly.

Lost ticker
Greetings, 11:02, Friday, December 29, 2006 I now find that when I try to make the mail ticker show up, it won't. No matter what I check, display always, display automatically, always on top, high, medium, and low priority. Nothing works. The only recent change in my system is that I switched from a 21-in CRT to a 19-in LCD. Could the ticker be pointed to an off-screen area and somehow just aborting?

Re: Lost ticker
On Friday, December 29, 2006, Marten Gallagher scripted: Probably not aborting it may well still be there as a ghost off-screen. Two suggetions of a generic nature: A) swap monitors back and disbale the ticker. Swap back again an re-enable? B) uninstall and re-install TB Neither may be possible or desirable but that's all I can suggest at the minute. TB has certain issues with monitors (changing resolution and dual monitors) which I am trying to document enough to make a bug report. Greetings Marten, 13:36, Friday, December 29, 2006 Yes, I also had to changed screen resolutions and the last location of the ticker was near the lower edge of the screen, so an off screen ghost seems possible. Unfortunately, going back is not an option as the reason for the change was that my old CRT died, so I have no way of dragging the ghost into the present.

Re: Lost ticker
On Friday, December 29, 2006, Robin Anson scripted: The ticker is probably off the screen. If you are happy to edit the registry, run regedit and go to HKEY_Current_User\RIT\The Bat!\Ticker There are 2 values in there Left and Top. Set both to 0 and the ticker will be placed at the top left corner of your screen. However you must do this with TB! closed, since it is only read at start up, and TB! overwrites these values as it closes down. Greetings Robin, 17:50, Friday, December 29, 2006 Somehow I failed to consider that The Bat should be CLOSED when I made the registry changes. Of course, it only reads those values when it opens.

Strange filtering on IMAP account
Greetings, 09:45, Thursday, December 22, 2005 I recently moved from a POP to an IMAP mail server. The setup seemed to go fairly easy, but my incoming mail filters now behave strangely on the IMAP account. Sometimes they don't run and I must run then manually. If they are supposed to mark a message as read, the last message put in a folder is never marked as read. I upgraded from 3.62 to the latest version, but that didn't help. Further, the IMAP message counts are wrong. Currently they show I have 11 unread out of 31 total in the input folder, when in fact 29 have been moved to other folders and the two remaining have both been read. I've turned off all synchronization, so that's not it. The count corrects itself if I compress the folder.

Greetings Steve and All, 14:34, Monday, May 23, 2005 I can confirm that this combination works. Firefox, The Bat 3.0.1.33, the GDS plugin 1.0.07 for The Bat, Win XP pro. The initial behavior was a little strange. After I configured the plugin in TB and forced an initial re-index only a small number of the mail indexes showed up in GDS. GDS updates in the background and so it takes a while, but the process seemed to stall after a few thousand messages were indexed. I went back to plugin configuration re-indexed again and another thousand mail messages showed in the GDS count almost immediately. I re-indexed four times before the count of mail messages appeared to asymptote on the GDS status page, so the plugin still needs some tweaking. However, the searches are quick once the indexes are in place.
