Many accounts - only one address book?

[Jacek Wojaczynski]

Hello,

I am using The Bat! 1.36 and I have 4 other users (accounts). One
thing is there wrong, because all the users have common address book.
What I want is a separate AB for every user. How to do that? It looks
simple... - just create a new address book - but what I want is that
other people couldn't see others address books... Is it possible?

best regards,

Jacek Wojaczynski

No, for this time. Maybe in version 2 of The Bat!, which can be post
at december 1999 :-)))

Speaking of multiple users, I tried setting this up so that someone else
could see and use their own accounts.  I wanted to remain a super user so
that I could do network settings and such, so after setting everything up:

1) I could see the other persons account, which is no big problem (though
I'd rather not) except that I didn't want to download their email everytime
I did a "download for all accounts".  So I set their account for "ignore
download all".  But this made it so that when they used their account, they
couldn't do a "download for all accounts".  Is there a way around this?

2) The other user, not being a supervisor user could not see the dialup
monitor so they had no way of stopping the dialup, or see what progress was
being made during the dialup.  Is there a reason for this?

In version 2 will it be possible to create user accounts first and then let
accounts be defined for them instead of the other way around?  There seems
to be a lot of intermingling of user/account information right now.

Thanks,

Kevin Boylan

Hello All,

I think i've found a solution for the multiple-user problem...

however: it's in windows!

all you have to do is re-login under a different name & you'll see the
bat in it's original settings (if you installed it under that
account!)

Now, how to set this up easily:

startup windows, configure it for multiple users, relogin as the
default-user... before creating any other profiles
install The Bat! and make the general settings...

now, relogin, create your windows-account & start-up The Bat!...
now, this version is yours: if you screw it up completely (the
registry settings, not affecting the files) the other users won't have
a problem...

Why is it like this?
simple: all the configuration-settings were put in the
'hkey_current_user' section of the registry...

Warning for shareware-users: the reg-key that holds the numbers of
days the prog is installed is also there, so you need to reconfigure
each account after the period (or you figure out the key & change it
along... - much less work once you know which one it is :-) )

Want more info, don't understand completely what i'm talking about?
just contact me... (also for the things concerning windows, no prob)

HTH :-)

BTW: this puts the 'superuser' useless: since everybody's got his own
version (with different mail-dirs, settings, adress-books,...)
the only hassle is to re-login if you change persons behind the pc...
