Filter problem?
Hi, I upgraded to TB version 3.95.6 and now the emails that are not filtered to a special folder and previously (version 2.12) landed in my inbox are put directly into the Trash folder. How can I change it so they get directed into the inbox again? Also, when I try to change the template for this folder to show what version of TB and what OS I'm running, the template instantly reverts back to its previous incarnation as soon as I add the tbudl address in the To: space?! What am I missing? It's probably something simple, but being just an elderly, regular computer user, these technicalities always stump me. -- Best regards, Susannemailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Using The Bat! 3.95.6 OS: Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 2 Current version is 3.95.08 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

TB uses address book templates first and after changing the template to TBUDL there, I get the correct template for new messages now. Still looking for help with the messages sent straight to the Trash, though. -- Best regards, Susannemailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Using The Bat! 3.95.6 OS: Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 2 Current version is 3.95.08 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

As I understand it, your BayseIT! is no longer working Others may have a more eloquent take on this, but the last few versions of The Bat! have taken it upon themselves to delete BayesIT! from your computer. Ritlabs' position is that BayesIT! was not reliable and they are saving you from yourself. Personally, I think that is just wrong and I am quite able to make these decisions on my own, but if you use The Bat! installer, it *will* delete BayesIT!

You can move the filters via drag drop while keeping the ALT key pressed, or right-click the filter in question and select Move Up (or Down) from the context menu.

Hello friends, I have not resolved my problem of filter I tried to apply an antispam method by applying a filtering with alternatives on keywords. The problem is that TB sends to the folder antispam created for that purpose, all the mails, same those who don't contain the strings, with no exception... In fact, it seems that all e-mail which is not filtered with a rule, go in this antispam folder ... Perhaps, TB doesn't want exclusively alternatives ? I also discovered that with simply the filter actived (rule active), and no strings in rule and no strings in alternatives, it was the same as if I had indicated all keywords in alternartives, therefore the problem does not come from keywords for the reason that all mails are going to spam folder (copy of the filter below) BeginFilter Name: antispam Active: 1 Source: \\wanadoo ADSL\Inbox Target: \\\spam CopyFolder: none MainSet: 00 AltSet:1: 30sex AltSet:1: 30sexy Actions: faoContinueProcessing AddGroups: DelGroups: ForwardTemplate: ConfirmTemplate: ReplyTemplate: FwdAddr: RedirectAddr: NewAddr: NewTemplate: ExtCmd: ExtFile: ExtractDir: ColourGroup: défaut AddAddrItems: afiFrom, DelAddrItems: afiFrom, HotKey: 0 IsOfColour: défaut SizeBigger: 0 SizeSmaller: 0 AgeOlder: 0 AgeNewer: 0 InAddrPos: 0 OutAddrPos: 0 InAddrGroups: NoAddrGroups: KillFile: KillMethod: 0 SaveTemplate: SndFile: SysSound: 0 SoundTime: 0:00-0:00 AllowTime: 0:00-0:00 EndFilter Thanks for your help Friendly Christophe France Current version is 1.62 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Non-English Characters Filter Problem
I'm trying to do a filter to get rid of messages with non-English characters. I set up a filter called non-English characters and then tried a rule which put Á | Ä in the Strings box and filtered for Presence Anywhere and told it to put the email in my Spam mailbox. That didn't work. I then tried enclosing them in quotes but that didn't work. I then did it through the Alternatives tab and pub the first character in the first set and the second character in the second set and it still didn't work. This last one filtered out two English messages which I examined looking at the full headers. Neither one of the messages filtered out contained either of the characters I was filtering for anywhere. Meanwhile several emails WITH those specific non-English characters were not filtered. I'm clearly doing something wrong but can't figure out what it is. Between the possibilities for using special characters in signal strings and using Regular Expressions, I find the Help on this rather confusing. If I use pipes for an or condition, should there or should there not be spaces before and after the characters I want to use for the filter? Should there be quotes around the characters I want to use for the filter? -- Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Vers: 1.53d FAQ: http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com

Filter problem?
I can't seem to perform a logical "or" function with the thebat's filters. I have this rule String: "InfoBeat Fun" | "adm-humor" Location: subject Presence: yes My intention is to move any message with "InfoBeat Fun" or adm-humor in the subject. The rules catches the InfoBeat messages, but not the adm-humor messages. What am I doing wrong?

Hello BillG, On Monday, September 11, 2000 at 20:31:51 GMT -0400 (which was 5:31 PM where I live) witnesses say BillG typed: I can't seem to perform a logical "or" function with the thebat's filters. I have this rule String: "InfoBeat Fun" | "adm-humor" Location: subject Presence: yes Easiest thing first. Check the spelling of "adm-humor". Make sure the mailing list isn't using "adm-humour" or that you haven't accidentally mistyped it. That's probably not the problem. I don't care for the | method of creating OR connections in TB. I find they can be ambiguous. I won't go into all the details, but suffice it to say that I prefer using one Main rule and one Alternate rule for OR connections. If you want to try the Alternate rule system, on your main rule, it should look like the following: String Location Presence InfoBeat Fun Subject Yes Then add an alternate rule by going to the alternate tab and clicking Insert. Now make this one look like: String Location Presence adm-humor Subject Yes Hopefully this will do the trick for you. -- Thanks for writing, Januk Aggarwal See header for e-mail address Using The Bat! 1.46 Beta/5 under Windows 98 4.10 Build A -- -- 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

Re[3]: filter problem
I have a similar catchall message filter as the last filter for my incoming mail - but instead of using not-"?" I just left the filtering strings blank. The filter just searches for the presence of the sender field. Since virtually all messages contain a sender field, it catches every message that passes it by. (I say "virtually all," because I think I've gotten some spam messages that contain absent or blank sender fields - I'm not sure about that - but I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.) -- Mitch Wagner Original Message Received: from dutaint.com (unverified [203.130.233.13]) by smtp.greyware.com (EMWAC SMTPRS 0.83) with SMTP id [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Wed, 14 Jun 2000 04:13:04 -0500 Received: from mail.osbtown.com by dutaint.com with SMTP (MDaemon.v3.1.0.R) for [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Wed, 14 Jun 2000 16:10:35 +0700 Received: from 207.159.57.165 [207.159.57.165] by osbtown.com [207.159.57.12] with SMTP (MDaemon.v2.8.5.0.R) for [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Wed, 14 Jun 2000 02:09:49 -0700 Return-Path: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Wed, 14 Jun 2000 02:07:38 -0700 From: phil [EMAIL PROTECTED] X-Mailer: The Bat!

Re: filter problem
In Reference to "filter problem" From Larry Barrett: L I received an e-mail from a friend. I right clicked on it - went to L specials, then to create filters. Everything is done as I have done L for many other addresses. It seems that there are *some* that simply L will *not* go to the folder I requested. Hi Larry, I've had similar problems with filters. I've had filters suddenly stop working for me. I finally wiped out all my filters and rebuilt them from scratch. Since then everything's been fine. I was wondering if maybe the constant updating to newer beta's was squirreling around with the filter settings some. The final straw was when certain messages from people on this were not getting filtered anymore and ending up in my inbox. I agree that there is something afoot in the way TB! stores it's filter info that is susceptible to getting fouled up. What it is however is well beyond my grasp, but as verification to your problem I too have pulled my hair out trying to figure out why certain messages refuse to be filtered. But after my total filter rebuild everything has been flawless so far. Yeah, it was a royal PITA doing it, but the result was worth the effort in less frustration. -- - Nick Using The Bat! 1.44 under Windows 98 4.10 Build 1998 -- -- 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] --
