Re[5]: POP - "Getting number of messages"
Good day Friends! Perhaps this is a host server issue. I manage email similar to you and Thomas and experienced this problem some years ago. Switched my host to Fastmail and the problem disappeared never to return. Me: In fact, our host is FASTMAIL as well. Using it for many years. Today, I see that the problem had disappeared! Hope it stays disappeared... -- Regards Rizvi Current version is 9.1.18 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Re[2]: POP - "Getting number of messages"
Hi Thomas, >>How many messages is it trying to get? As I mentioned earlier, have you kept messages on server for the last 10 years, and TB has to download 1 million headers first to check whether the messages have already been downloaded?<<< ++ OK, I understand. Now there are only 1,900 messages in the server and still the connection centre is stuck getting number of messages. reason we keep the msgs on server is that in office, we download using POP and filtered into appropriate folders. then we got the email running in our mobile phones, then at home we got our laptops running on IMAP. I could say that this issue propped up only about a month back. appreciate your advice. -- Regards Rizvi Current version is 9.1.18 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
POP - "Getting number of messages"
Hello Friends, I use POP to download messages, about 75 filters are used to place messages in appropriate folders as well. since of late, for about a month or so, it was observed that it takes a long time at ""Getting number of messages" and sometimes it just goes on unless I have to DELETE TASK or ABORT ALL. Sometimes, it checks immediately as usually done. I have set auto check of emails every one minute. Is there any suggestions/remedy for this? -- Regards Rizvi Current version is 9.1.18 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Re[2]: counter to have 7 digits
On 26-JAN-2016, You Wrote:-
..
Then run the RegExp search on your %_RefNo variable, and replace the
stored value of %_RefNo with the result.
Something like:-
%_RefNo="00%_RefNo"%-
%SETPATTREGEXP="\d{7}?\z"%-
%_RefNo='%REGEXPMATCH="%_RefNo"'%-
These three lines would slot in before the last line of your existing
code (%Subject=...).

PERFECTO!!!
thanks mate, works beautifully.

counter to have 7 digits
hello friends,
i got this code done by "Roelof Otten" many years back;
%ModifyOnce(X-Eagle)%-
%SetHeader(&,&%-
%Calc('%RegRead("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\RIT\The
Bat!\MessageReferenceNumber", "0") + 1')%-
&)%-
%_RefNo='%Header(X-Eagle)'%-
%If:'%_RefNo'='100':'%_RefNo="001"'%-
%RegWrite("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\RIT\The Bat!\MessageReferenceNumber",
%_RefNo)%-
%_RefNo%-
%Subject='%_RefNo * %OSUBJ'%-
i have added this code to NEW, REPLY & FORWARD so that the number
appears in chronological sequence for each and every email that i
either start as NEW or REPLY or FORWARD. however, the number appears
as 1, 2, 3 and so on.
i prefer the length of the counter to have max 7 digits. therefore,
the number should appear as "001" instead of just 1, 2 to appear
as "002" and so on
hope you can assist me to modify this code or even consider making
your own code.
many thanks

Re: Contiuation symbol for long lines in a macro
When I send e-mail to a group, I like to put the names and addresses in the BCC: pane to maintain the privacy of the recipients. Now when I click on the name of the group in my address book and the click on the Create new message icon, the name of the list appears in the To: pane. I then have to cut the list name in the To: pane and paste it into the BCC: pane. Sometimes, I forget sigh. I could use $BCC=recipients but 1. The list of recipients can be very long, so: what is the continuation symbol to wrap the lines without adding a space and 2. If I add or remove name from the list group, I will also have to maintain the template. Is there any way that I can assign a value to a variable that will contain all of the current addresses of the members of the group? +++ hi would this help? in ADDRESS BOOK -- group name -- new message %to= %bcc=name of handle of that group list -- vernon Current version is 6.6 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

numbering messages in chronological sequence
hello friends, wishing you all a happy and prosperous new year 2014! wonder if someone could assist with a macro to insert automatically a number to appear in chronological sequence for each and every message that we send out. for example, if a new msg is opened for the first time then the number starts with 1 (one). when a msg is replied or forwarded the number should appear as 2 (two) and it continues. so for each new, reply, forward msg the number should continue. more over, the number should be at least 7 digits long. the number in the first msg should read as 001, then the 121st msg should read as 121. once the msg number goes to 999, then the next one should automatically go back to 001 look forward to hear -- regards ramzan Current version is 6.1.8 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
Re: numbering messages in chronological sequence
hi, There is a macro %trackingnumber to insert a random 32-bit hexadecimal number. If that does not suffice, you have to store the number somewhere and increment it for each message. I'm not sure how you do that, maybe it needs to happen in an outgoing message filter rather than in a message template. Maybe it needs to be incremented and updated in a file by an outgoing message filter, and written from that file by a macro in a message template. correct, the macro %trackingnumber can be inserted anywhere. likewise i need a macro to run serial numbers instead and increase the number by one for every new, reply, forward msg that I create. -- ramzan Current version is 6.1.8 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
