Version 2
Friday, December 19, 2003 at 8:08 AM (Pacific Time) Hello Bat Users, Well, I held off as long as I could before upgrading to version 2. I used 1.62r a long time with no problems. Then I seen where I could upgrade for only $14.00 until Jan, 10th because of the Christmas specials. I just couldn't pass it up. I am really glad I did! The new folder maintenance centre is very well done. I backed 1.62r up first in case I had problems. Then I just installed 2.02.3 over the top of 1.62r, I wasn't sure you could do that but I had my back up so it didn't mater. To my surprise, everything works fine so far. Even my templates are working,and I thought I read something where they had to be changed for version 2. Anyway, I have always been very conservative when it comes to upgrading software. I don't do it just because but I can tell you that now is the time especially with the Christmas discounts. I am still in the early stages of using version 2 but have not, yet anyway, experienced any of the problems that I have seen others have on the list. I just wanted to say how pleased I am with version 2.

NOD32
Saturday, March 15, 2003 at 11:41 AM (Pacific Time) Greetings TheBat! Users, Well, after installing NOD32 and TheBat plug-in, I found a new menu item in TheBat's Folder Menu called check for viruses One of the settings was move the message to the quarantine folder I did not have a quarantine folder but I tried it anyway. I ran it on a folder with about 600 messages and it was s slow. When it was done, it had found 172 infected messages and moved them to the newly created Quarantine folder. There was no way any of these messages had a virus in them. Someone try this and see if you get the same results. I guess it is better not to use the check for viruses option and just let the plug-in do it's job by having NOD check the messages as they come in. Or... Would it be a better *not* to use the plug-in and configure NODs pop3scan for each account? -- Wayne Black Using TheBat! 1.61 With Windows 98se 4.10 Current version is 1.62 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Hang on mail check
Saturday, February 01, 2003 at 12:31 PM (Pacific Time) Greetings TheBat! Users, I just wanted to share a problem and a fix that I experienced this morning. I was checking my TBUDL and TBOT mail this morning and there were 96 new messages. I always use the connection center, normally without any problems. But for some reason, it would hang on message #64 while trying to get the headers. There were no attachments or unusually large messages. I tried three times and it still came to a halt at #64. I used Popcorn to get all the email headers for this account (around 560 of them because I have it set to leave mail on server for 3 days) closed Popcorn, opened TheBat and was able to get all 96 headers and download as normal. I don't know if anyone else had this happen or not but this is how I was able to fix it. -- Wayne Black [EMAIL PROTECTED] Using TheBat! 1.61 With Windows 98se 4.10 Current version is 1.62 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

In other words, no need for a registry file? If this is the case it would be possible to install and run TheBat from a removable drive such as a USB key drive. Think of it... your email program and all messages in your pocket. Just plug it in at a friends house, at work or at home. Any computer with a USB port which is most of them less than three to five years old. It would be great security too since TheBat would not even reside on your computer. Take a look at http://www.usbkeydrive.com and tell me if this would be possible and how practical it would be. I think of this because of the new PocoMail Portable Edition.

I was experimenting with the mass mailing feature and created the template. Next I selected 47 address book entries and hit mass mailing using template and picked my template. Then under action I picked open in editor I guess I should not have done that because it opened all 47 messages in the editor (like it should) I then closed them all by hitting Esc 47 times. All still seemed well until I closed down TheBat. That is when it locked up. Everything was okay when I restarted my computer. The best thing to do is probably choose put in outbox and if necessary, edit them one at a time. Or, could this be a bug? And a question. How can you delete the search history in message finder?

The only way to re-allow editing is by pressing the down KS icon at the right, showing the list of previous addressees or KS Subjects, and *then* I can edit. Very annoying... I find it east to edit a subject or address by reverse tabbing (Shift + Tab) into any field which turns it blue and start typing. Then tab again gets you back down to message body area.

Kill Dupes

I don't usually copy messages from one folder to another but I am sure that there are those who do. As I said, I don't copy messages to another folder but I run "Kill Dupes In All Folders" about twice a month and it usually finds one or two and deletes them. I don't know where these could be coming from. It would just be nice to see what is being deleted and be given a chance *not* to delete it. Is this a feature worth requesting?

This can only be addresses or words in the subject field but not in the message body, is this correct? 3) The signal string section is quite large and it gives you an option to load strings from a file as well.

Backup

It would of corse work with Pkzip, ARJ or which ever archiving program you use. I hope they help. I know they sure have come in handy for me. They look like this: This one backs up everything including the registry key. - @echo=off cd\ cls cd thebat echo. echo. echo This batch file will backup the entire Bat email program and all echo messages plus the Bat registry file to D:\BAT for easy restoring. echo. echo Make sure to run this batch file from the "C" drive. echo. pause cls rar a -r d:\bat\allbat.rar regedit /e d:\bat\tbreg.reg hkey_current_user\software\rit cd\ cls And to restore: -- @echo=off cd\ cls echo. echo. echo This will restore the Bat program, all messages and the bat registry. echo. pause rar x d:\bat\allbat.rar c:\thebat cls echo. echo. echo The last step is to restore the Bat's registry file. echo. pause regedit /c d:\bat\tbreg.reg Wayne [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- -- View the TBUDL archive at http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBUDL, double click here and send the message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org

Limits?
Hello TBUDL, I am new to this list and am getting some getting some very good information from everyone. I just wanted to know if The Bat has been tested with a very large number of messages in it's folders. Does it have a limit to the number of messages in a folder or the number of entries in the address book? I don't really understand the limitations section of the help file. Thanks and have a great day! Wayne mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] The Bat!
