Fwd: Re[2]: Gmane & TB lists volume down?

2004-03-22 Thread stefan ketola
Hi all

as if by magic a couple of you post that few newbie
members...wellhere's one - so I thought I'd say
Hi.

I'm currently trialing the bat , bout 17/18 days into
the trial, and finding it quite an adjustment from 
the loveable Mr. Gate's (the malware writers best
friend) product.

Am finding it confusing and little as being user
friendly/intuative.

So I hope you guys are ready for loads of real dumb
"newbie" questions  :-)

BTW what is Hmane ??

Thanks guys

Stef

Thanks for the Welcome Martin and others.

I'm hardly a power user of email, so may well not need
many of the advanced features of the bat. It was
mainly the ability to be bale to manage messages on
the server and if desired deeleting them from the
server that appealed to me plus I read a lot of good
reports about it.

Heck you never know I may use some of the advanced
features as time goes on.

>> Why not both?>>

I like to keep my main email for just family/close
friends and use my web based nail for everything else.

I like to do so because:

I like to keep it seperate


reduce spam, chance of viruses and other malware.


I just prefer to deal with spam on web based email and
keep it away from my main "Real" email address.

>>If you're  planning to  perform an illegal act then
>>you are no less  traceable by Yahoo than by any
>>other mail send method.


Ehm no hardly. Just like to keep things seperate as
stated above and maybe I am a little overly
cautious/paranoid about Spam/Viruses/Malware - but
then this approach ahs served me well as on my main
e-mail addy I get as near as makes no difference no
spam at all and not an overly huge amount on my Yahoo
one.

confirm receipt/reading confirmation - whats the difference

2004-03-24 Thread stefan ketola
Hi all

yep it's the new boy again. Can anyone please explain
the difference between these two features/options -
also can one select both (depending on the difference
and if this would be desireable) in one go instead of
selecting each individually from the drop down menu.

Thanks

If a tree falls in the forrest and no one's there to
hear it - does it still make a sound ?

setting up filters

2004-03-28 Thread stefan ketola
Hi all

I am raiding a website on tips on using the bat. I
copy the text and then paste it into an email and mail
it to myself.

i have created a folder in the bat called bat stuff
and want to set up a filter to move all these emails
and indeed anything with "bat" ANYWHERE in the subject
line to this folder.

How do I do this ?

Thanks

Ehmm yes that's what I said ? What I need to know is

Re: setting up filters

2004-03-28 Thread stefan ketola
That's OK thanks - I shant be bothering with this list
any further.

I have been using a PC for 5 years and have
participated in umpteen forums/comunities/groups
covering a multitude of subjects/areas PC related and
non PC related.

In that time I have never encountered a forum with
such a regimented aproach, Nor have I encountered such
hostility and frankly down right rudeness.

Thanks to those that have given me a warm welcome and
those that have responded in a friendly and helpful
manner, but I am 42 years old and not prepared to be
treated like a little child who has spilled the milk.

Best wishes to all

Stef
