Opening links in a browser
Hello Bat'ers just wondering if anyone has come across this problem. If I doubleclick on a link it opens 2 instances of my browser, this only started happening after I upgraded to 2.12 Another question, can I disable the confirmation every time I click on Send the message - it's annoying. thanks, Graham -- Graham Dodd Writing to you using The Bat v2.12.00 Trying to catch Spam with POPFile Attempting to run on Windows 2000 v5.0.2195 Current version is 3.00.00 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Re: Import from Outlook fails
Hello Armin, Thursday, June 17, 2004, 1:08:39 PM, you wrote: AM Hi, AM I'm evaluating TB and would LOVE to use it as an alternative to Outlook, AM but for some reason I'm unable to import existing Outlook folders and AM messages. When I select an Outlook folder for import, TB starts working AM really hard and displays a progress bar. It also creates the respective AM folder structure in the file system, as well as in the Account pane, but AM when the import is complete all of these folders remain empty. The AM number of messages to import makes no difference. Apparently this AM behaviour occurs only when an MS Exchange server is present. On another AM system, with Outlook running as a stand-alone application, all Outlook AM folders are imported properly. AM Does anybody know what I can do about this?

Scheduler
Hello all Bat users, first time on the list so please excuse the newbie questions. Coming from Outlook where I relied on the Calendar a lot I am finding that the Scheduler is not as good in fact I'm using Firefox with the Calendar add-in for scheduling and reminders. Problem 1: If I select a date in the future then Insert a new task it always defaults to the current date, not the selected date. Is there a setting somewhere that can change this ? Problem 2: Tasks that have been completed still remain in the list Is there a way to get a view of the current month ? I'm using The Bat 2.11 on a Win2000 system Appreciate any help with these problems as I'm still trying to find my way around all the menu's and cool features -- Best regards, Graham mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Current version is 2.11.02 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
