I had a similar (but much smaller and less complex) problem, that I
think I have figured out mostly today - possibly it will solve your
problems?

One of the services of the people hosting my domain for me is as many
mail addresses (.forward) as I want.  So I have [EMAIL PROTECTED] that
forwards to an account at MyRealBox.  I set up TB to pull from the MRB
pop, and the account is set up as [EMAIL PROTECTED] for everything except
the MRB user id/pw.  I set smpt and pop to pop.myrealbox.com, then for
the smtp "Authentication...", I checked "Perform SMTP Authentication
(RFC 2554)".  Now when I connect with my ISP that does not block port
25, I can do a send and TB authenticates and uploads my mail!

So if you could set this up for one of your accounts, have all the
other accounts configured to push all the Outbox contents to the one
MyRealBox account, you may be all set...?

It would require an SMTP that allows me to connect and use regardless
of where I connected from. And I haven't found one of those yet.
Still need to check the ones you gave, will get you an answer on that

The ISPA (local governing body for belgium ISP's) and EuroISPA (same

SMTP servers.

I don't WANT webmail. I hate it, tried using hotmail for our mail
needs once. It's slow, uncomfortable and requires you to be connected
to read mail. Something I definately don't want to do when I'm using
the GSM to dial into.  
Customers should send inquiries/questions... to the mailboxes of the
company (domain) they're interested in.  And even after 1 year of
abandonning the trial we still get occasional mails there.  Don't
wanna go there again.

They're ALL cheap enough at offering certain services, and some are
cheap at service a but expensive at service b.  With other ISP it's
just the other way around.  This is why I'm currently using 6 ISP's to
get everything I need done.  Most can't offer EVERYTHING I need, and
of the few that do, they simply charge too much for the whole package
of services I need.  What I REALLY need, is my own dedicated server,
but I can't afford the cost of a dedicated SDSL or T1 or comparable
speed link.  So we have a server hosting at one location (contract
stating which services we can run, so can't put an SMTP there), and
web sites at another ISP, and ... )

At least one of the ISP's I'm using checks the "from" and just denies
any mail that doesn't have a valid address, and it doesn't only check
the domain, it checks the mailboxname too.  Apparently (so they claim)
they do this as a means of making sure users of their services have
set up their mail client properly.
Can't really say this is bad practice, I'm getting LOTS of mails where
a reply will return with "mail address unknown" or something similar.

I think, the only thing you can do is to create a dummy account (or
use an existing one with the specific SMTP settings) and put the
%ACCOUNT="account name" macro into your folder templates.

You might want to create a filter to move sent messages back to the
first account's outbox.

By the way, I started a new thread since the old one was made a Dead
Horse by one of the moderators. (And your question was not really
related to the thread anyway ;-).)

The from email address has no bearing normally... the important
thing is that you send email using the server of the ISP you're
connected to. They will know by that that you are one of "theirs"
and allow you to send anything you like.

This assumes that there is no authentication on the SMTP
connection... perhaps an ISP could allow authenticated users to
send regardless of their IP, and I would imagine some do.

My two cents on this... I work for an ISP, and true, no reputable
ISP will allow relaying. If they do, they will be blackholed in
fairly short order. Normally, the ISP restricts this by only
allowing mail to be sent if it originates from one of their own
IP addresses, (ie the pool used for their dialup services or dsl
connections). Essentially, sendmail checks all mail being
relayed, (not destined for the account of one of the ISP's
customers), against a table of allowed IP addresses. I really
don't think the from email address on the email makes any
difference here, but rather the IP it originates from.

Am I then a magician? I am currently sending from - at least - four
different "From"-addresses and only *one* SMTP-server. I cannot
guarantee that the SMTP-server I am currently using will send from
*all* "From"-domains - but I can guarantee you that it will send from
*several*. I cannot see why it should care the slightest about which
domain is used as "From"-address - as long as the sending mailbox is
using SMTP-by-login ("Use specific settings" under "Authentication").

ISP's during the day in order to cut expenses - but no matter where I

address, you'll be able to enjoy the benefits of using a *web-account*
for sending and retrieving mail - namely, the benefit of reading your
mail where ever there is a device with a browser. After your messages
are read on the web-interface of your web-account, you just mark them
all "unread" and they are ready for TB to download them when you get
home to your PC.

Quick and short from what I've read you might try centralinfo.net.
There you can host your domain, website, pop and smtp mail from any
location or web access.  Price is cheap enough at $8.00 US per month
for a long list of services and disk space.  The only draw-back I've
seen is a curious person could see your domain is on a uslive.net
virtual server in the header (see mine). I find this trivial do to the
great customer support
the give.

Good luck

They won't, because they don't allow relaying. You need to set up you
own mail server. MDaemon (software) or Cobalt Cube (hardware) or Linux

I need to be able to distinguish OUTGOING mailboxes. 
When customers write to say [EMAIL PROTECTED] and a reply is sent
by me or my colleagues, it should have [EMAIL PROTECTED] in the
"from" so when customers in turn reply, it nicely arrives in the
support inbox again and so on.
Same for info@... sales@... and several others.

I need this for multiple domains, which are (unfortunately) hosted at
different ISP's.  This is a cost issue.  I'm currently using a
somewhat awkward setup of different ISP's and stuff, but I'm paying
less than a third of what the cheapest single ISP could offer. (if
they COULD offer each of the items I need in the first place).  In US
currency, the total budget I'm paying NOW for all our internet
requirements is a 4 figure sum aching to a 5 figure one each year.
Paying 3 times as much is TOO much.

To make matters worse, I need to be able to do all this from various
places. Connecting to the server of a different ISP depending on where
I'm connecting from.

And I'm changing locations at least 3 times a day. (can you see me
changing account info for 6-7 accounts, 3+ times a day)... sigh. it's
depressing...

>2) set up TB with just as many account as *you* want (not as many as

>SMTP-server for your account.
The ISP's don't dictate it, I'm dictating it onto myself because I
have no viable alternative.  If I really really could, I'd have an
in-house server (or servers) taking care of everything we need, but
alas, that WOULDd cost a hefty 5 figure sum.

>Both of these solutions would allow you to send from *one* SMTP-server
>no matter where you were connected, and would thus save you the
>trouble of
I have at current not found an SMTP server which I can access, from
wherever I connected from (i.e. whatever ISP's I'm using). and send
the mails through with any of 20 or so different "FROM" addresses
(which include several different domains, most of which are ".be"
domains).
If you know of any, It'd probably solve most of my problems.

>1) Changing smtp-servers when changing connection
I'm currently _STILL_ using Forte Agent because that one allows me to
automatically set the SMTP servers depending on what account I used to
make the connection with.  The bad news with Forte is that I need to
launch an instance for each account. That alone fills up the entire
taskbar, takes a lot of switching windows, making it less than optimal
to work, and a real hassle if I need to move/copy a mail to another
account.

>2) Setting up filters, columns etc. for more than *one* account!
I can set the filters to distribute incoming mail into separate
inboxes (the way I'd like it anyway) and automatically set the "from"
address.  However, at current with TheBat!  I would need to manually
change the "Account" for each mail I'm sending.  
I need "instant" send (so can't save up, call the provider and send
mail in batch).  And I'm doing several handfulls of mails a day (all
accounts mixed).

I'll check them and see if they allow me to SMTP send using the
from-addresses I need.

GETTING the mail isn't a problem.  All of the ISP's I have mailboxes
at allow me to get pop access and retrieve the mail in the mailboxes,
but I can't SEND mail through an account which ISP I'm not directly
dialed into.
And doing this from multiple PC's isn't a problem either.

I've finally managed to read my way through the complete thread, but I
still don't understand why you can't use the SMTP-server of one of the
web-mail providers offering SMTP-by-login and then

1) set up TB with only *one* account

or

2) set up TB with just as many account as *you* want (not as many as
the amount of your ISP's dictate!) and then use only this *one*
SMTP-server for your account.

Both of these solutions would allow you to send from *one* SMTP-server
no matter where you were connected, and would thus save you the
trouble of

1) Changing smtp-servers when changing connection

2) Setting up filters, columns etc. for more than *one* account!


Have I missed something?! If I haven't - and this looks like a
solution for you - , you could use the SMTP-server of
webmail-providers like www.myrealbox.com , www.gmx.net , www.yahoo.com
or  www.operamail.com .

Since all of these services also offer POP/IMAP-retrieval from TB, you
can collect all your mail-traffic on one of these accounts, and, thus,
enjoy the additional bonus of being able to read all your mail where
ever you have access to the web - not just on your TB-PC!

What mail server software are you using, and how does it interface
with TB: you can't be running two OS's at the same time, can you? And
to create messages in TB, then reboot with anotehr OS to send the

My ISP (hoping that yours too) is a right ISP :-). It doesn't restrict
me on what SMTP/POP3/whatever server I can connect to - I'm speaking
about the ability to connect to the servers that are outside of my ISP's
IP address block. My actions is only and only my actions so I'm fully

I use sendmail under Linux (OT but I'll carry on) this sends mail straight 
away wihtout using a smtp server. It integrates with my mail client (KMail) 
so Kmail effectivly has a smtp server built into it.

Who cares about what your ISP thinks. It's  not that unusual and many people 
run their own smtp server. I run one at work to ave having to use the demon 
one.

But they don't do their work perfectly and it is simple for a spammer to set 
up their own smtp server. Disallowing relaying is a poor system. As is 
blackholeing.

Correct. But the more convenient scheme is to install some kind of SMTP
authorization on the server. The added benefits are TLS support etc.

The next two ways to prevent unauthorized third-party relaying are:
- separate user-side SMTP server and the core relays (MXers). Good for
the most situations and sites.
- use newly introduced RFC 2476 to completely separate traffic from the
users and servers. The summary of this RFC is: users aren't allowed to
use SMTP servers completely, they submit their mails via a special port
on the relay. Look for an original RFC text on any server
(http://www.rfc-editor.org/ would be great) and also check out this URL:
http://sendmail.net/?feed=rfc2476. I consider this to be a future in the
way users will send their mails.

AGSAA>> Here is the example. Imagine that one of my SMTP servers acts as a relay

TF> Is there a way we can see which commands TB actually sends to the

Yes, by installing a so-called SMTP proxy with logging enabled. The
perfect examples known to me are the SMTPepd
(http://www.kanargh.force9.co.uk/smteepd/smteepd.exe) and The
Sleepwalker SMTP Proxy (http://www.thesleepwalker.com/software/).

TF>  What is RCPT TO: ? The recipients?

It's the command sent to an (E)SMTP server by the connection originator
containing the so-called "envelope" address of the recipient. For
further information just consult an appropriate (E)SMTP-related RFCs
found on the 'net.

Agreed. BTW the same mailbox owner could use different SMTP servers for

No patents here . And the answers to your question is quite
easy:
1. There are MUAs that allow user to deliver e-mail messages directly to
the SMTP server of some addressee.
2. This delivery scheme is unusual at the user's end and isn't
appreciated by the ISPs. Remember that user != server :-)
3. Many SMTP servers are using DUL (http://maps.vix.com/dul/) to prevent
direct connections from the non-local dial-up users (if any).
4. We're living in the world of spam. Let the servers do their work
perfectly.

It would. I wouldn't want it, because it is faster and easier for me
to just deliver to my ISP's SMTP server and let it do the rest while
I'm offline. You see, if you need to connect to the recipient's POP
server, that probably on another continent, and depending on your
bandwidth (average 1.5k/s over here) that takes expensive on-line
time. If the POP server is down or unreachable for some reason, you
have to try again later - something I don't worry about when using my
ISP's SMTP server.

That's about all I know about it. ;-)

I think the problem is that, as you say, you have no idea as to how
mail arrives at the mailbox - and you are confused about the
difference between SMTP and POP, and other server programs.

I'm no expert, so I might be wrong on some details, but here's how it
works, as clearly as I can explain.

The short answer is that if you have your own SMTP, you can configure
the options the way you want it. SMTP's on other servers will be
configured in different ways, but all will be configured to protect
against abuse by intruders or spammers.

SMTP is a program on a server that sends or relays mail to other
servers.  In the end, it will send mail to a POP box somewhere - the
POP box is the place where the user gets the mail from.

Servers also have software designed for filtering and processing mail.
This software is what tells SMTP what to do with the mail when it gets
it. Some common programs for this are called Sendmail, Procmail, Qmail.

If you had your own SMTP server, you would use the mail software to
tell it to recognize and relay all mail coming from you and your
domains, and reject everything else. So, you will have configured your
personal SMTP to allow relaying, but only the relaying that helps you.
Since your personal SMTP would not have a dedicated connection, you
would probably not have to worry about other spam protections.

A dialup ISP company will probably configure their SMTP server to only
accept mail that has originated on its network - that is, something
coming in via the dialup.

A webhosting company without dialup services will generally configure
their SMTP to accept other mail, but use a verification routine such
as POP-before-send coupled with spam filters such as the ORBS database
to protect their server.

Re: Multiple email everything.

2001-01-05 Thread Austin Dennis

Hi Olivier

I'm not sure if this will work, but it seems to be working fine for me. Go
to mailandnews.com and set up an account with them (it's free). Now go into
TB and set up your SMTP server to mailandnews.com. Then select
"Authentication", tick "Perform SMTP Authentication" and "Use specific
settings". Enter your userid and password for mailandnews.com, and you
should be able to send emails (no matter where you are logged in from). I
don't know if this is "supposed" to work, but it does. Perhaps they've left
it open by mistake, or perhaps it's permissible since you have an account
there. I suspect lots of the other free web based providers are the same. It
may not be super quick (certainly not as quick as using your ISP's SMTP
server), but it may resolve the problem.

Good luck
Austin

Can't do, users insist on faster than immediate response.  Sending

That's the prob, the ISP we host our server at and does it at a very
nice price only has modem dial-in. no cable or DSL, so it's too slow
to be usefull, I'll need another ISP to get faster connection so I can
access my own server over the internet at a faster speed.

Not viable for what we need to do.  We need the GSM to provide regular

Still need to put it online somewhere, where providers ask money for,

It's NT4 TSE now, W2K would do also, but it was installed like this
before W2K became available and I see no reason to pay for a W2K
upgrade when it offers nothing we can't already do now.

You don't know what your addressed person's SMTP server is - there is
no way to know except by looking at RFC headers of mail they have sent
you, and then if they are using multiple ISP's like you, it would mean
nothing.

Not all servers with POP accounts have SMTP; web-based email such as
yahoo or hotmail doesn't provide an SMTP that is associated with the
domain name; and the SMTP doesn't always match the domain name.

Finally, if outsiders could access the sender's SMTP, that would be

send your spam to everyone on AOL - you not only would have the
benefit of their servers, but you would defeat whatever spam

You might just want to configure your mail options to queue outgoing
mail in the outbox rather than sending it right away.  If there is one
place you are certain to be every day, then when you arrive there the
first thing to to when you arrive at that location would be to log on
and send all the messages in the outbox.

Of course, this would result in delayed reply to some email, but you
could bypass the routine if an email was particularly important to
respond to urgently.

The other thing to do - but it's obviously not very convenient, is to
simply configure TB to send to one SMTP, but change the SMTP
configuration as needed when you move around during the day.  This is
obviously not convenient, but I know it can be done, because I used to
do that during a time when I did not have a reliable ISP.

AGSAA> Hmm... Didn't catch the point, could you please explain? :-)

Well, I'm in the US, so it may be different, but for me, here's how it
works.

I sign up with an ISP, in my case it currently is Flashmail.  I have a
dialup connection.  My dialup to Flashmail requires a user name and
password to access, but of course this is automatically entered by my
Windows dialup software every time I connect.

I do not have any other way to connect to the internet except for the
dialup I subscribe to. (Actually I do have some alternate connections
for backup use, but I don't use their SMTP - if for some reason the
Flashmail network server is down, I will use the SMTP on my own
server, which has POP-before-send authentication.)

Flashmail provides me with a POP box that I NEVER use.  That is, there is no
such thing as an abigail-username@flashmail address listed anywhere. I
do receive mail THROUGH their POP, but all of it is forwarded/rerouted
from the aliases associated with different domains.  Since I manage
several websites, there are different aliases associated with
different domains ([EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED],
[EMAIL PROTECTED], etc.) My reply-to/from always reflects the
domain I am replying from.

As long as I have used the Flashmail dialup to connect to the
internet, the mail goes through the Flashmail SMTP with NO problem no
matter WHAT the reply-to/from headers say.  I suppose it is possible
that I could run into a problem if I used a domain that was
specifically BANNED by the ISP because it was on an ORBS database,
etc., but this isn't a problem with using our own proprietary domain
names, and it has not been a problem with configuring the
reply-to/from for a hotmail or other web-based system, either. (My
kids have hotmail accounts)

Andrey, this would be the case if I set the SMTP to my own company's
server (dyslexia.com), but set the mail from/reply-to for something
else, AND if I used an authentication scheme other than
POP-before-send. But in those cases I am still accessing from an
unrelated dialup - my company's server does not provide dialup access.

The difference with the dialup is that - at least in the US - most
MAJOR service providers use an authentication routine that allows
anyone who has dialed up via their lines to use the SMTP without
limitation, assuming they have passed the authentication required at
log in.

I have found that the companies offering free or very low cost access
do not work that way, so perhaps in other countries it may be a
problem.  Obviously, I don't know what the procedures are in Belgium
or Russia.

2) Access via GSM at an affordable price/min.

(basically the provider calling the office to drop of mail packets).
it's a little more complex than this but it is the core of it.
4) Site hosting with semi-large dbase (around 3Gb dbase getting) with
remote management of the DB (which we currently take care of via 5)
because no adequate alternate was available).
5) Access to Windows NT Terminal server via the internet for around 25

time.

Actually..   Why does no e-mail client have an option to deliver
sent mail directly to the addressed person's SMTP server.  Am I
missing an obvious "NO" here, or have I just thought up a totally new
type of internet application (Maybe I should file a patent for it
right away )

H I see your point. I would only need the SMTP server the short
moment I'm sending the mails.  Don't have to make it manage the
mailboxes.

About all of the ISP's I use have POP's all over Belgium, some even
have access from other countries in Belgium.  That however isn't the
problem.  When I'm home, I'm using ADSL, at the office, we have ISDN,
and when I'm on the road I use GSM.
The ISP I use at home doesn't provide an ISDN service like the one we
have in the office.  That one in turn doesn't provide access through
ADSL.  The "on the road" is a special case again, since dialing either
provider would be costly, and it's cheaper per minute to use the
internet provided by the company I get my GSM line from...
Starting to see the picture here...  :-(  I really wish I could get it
all done via just one, but either they don't provide the service I
require or the cost to get it done is too high.
I'm not even going to get started as to why I need the other 2 ISP's
for :-)

There are servers you can install on your PC. Of course, they will be
only active when you are currently connected, but I tried one once,
and it sent the messages directly to the recipient's POP server.

I uninstalled it again, because I found it awkward, and in addition, I
have only PC's, no laptop, so I can use my ISP's SMTP at home, and my
company's SMTP in the office (which has a 24/7 ISDN connection to the
internet, which I can use via the LAN).

But for you, it might be a solution.

Another idea would be to connect via attglobal.net (formerly ibm.net)
or Compuserve, they have dial-in numbers in many places, and you can
use either their SMTP server or connect through them to your respective
SMTP servers. I haven't used either of them for a while, so I don't
don't whether it still works.

It does not work with AOL, though.

See above. Try an ISP that has dial-up numbers everywhere you go.

Another solution (my boss does this) is to dial long-distance to your
home ISP every time. :-(

I am solving it with Forté Agent at this moment, where I can
auto-select the SMTP server depending on what dial-up I made the
connection with.
But Agent requires me to fire a copy of Agent for each mailbox I want
to manage.  Launching Agent 5 times works, but it's not easy to work
with this way.
So far, Agent is the only one which provides me with a "workable" yet
cludgy way to do stuff, and I've tried _LOTS_ of e-mail clients over
the last few months.

Obtain an old pc. E.g. a P90. Install a *nix/*BSD on it and use it as a
smtp server. This solution works very well if your ISP has a dodgy
mail server (e.g. Lineone). When I'm on the internet in Linux I use
sendmail and have no need for a smtp server.

A more windows orientated solution is to install NT and a windows
based smtp server. Apart from BackOffice server I've never tried this
method.

The third solution is to find an anonymous smtp server which allows
relaying. Such lists can be found at astalavista.box.sk

The same as you say below, using the more correct term "third party
relay". What I mean is, it does not mean it's open to third parties if
you can use it while being logged in through the same ISP.

I meant "third-party relaying". The SMTP server error "sorry, we don't
relay", which I have seen at times, also refers to third-party
relaying, wouldn't it?

GMX has, for example, POP before SMTP. So, you POP nad then you can
use their SMTP server, never mind through which ISP you are logged in.

Of course. That's why I was talking about in the beginning.

Re[2]: Multiple email everything.

2001-01-04 Thread jdanforth1

Sorry, I didn't realize you might be mobile and need different
smtp servers at different times.  Well, one way to do it would be
to duplicate all of your accounts, making another set for each
one of the outgoing servers you intend to use.  The number of
accounts will multiply fast, but they could be easily sorted by
name if the servername were used in the account name first.

This approach would make sending faster, but you would probably
have to make another folder in there to keep all the messages in,
so that they wouldn't be scattered all over the different
accounts.

I don't know of any mail program that has a provision to switch
servers on an account for sending.

Sorry, but that's all this newby can do (it's my first day with
this thing!)

Then ask one of your ISPs for the so-called SMTP authentication on one
of the SMTP servers. After that you just need to enter the server name
and the related auth data (username and password) into the account
properties - as many as you need. Be sure that no one of the domains
you're using for you e-mail aren't blocked at this SMTP server.

Sorry, but you're wrong here.

Generally, all SMTP servers are "relays". But the actual server
behaviour can significantly vary. You can use ORBS, RBL, DRBL, RSS
whatever databases to prevent spammers from sending your their crap, you
of course should use some kind of ACL (access.db on sendmail) etc. It
depends, as we say here in Russia :-).

So we're speaking about so-called "third party relaying" in this thread.
This relaying occurs when someone connects to a SMTP server which is
serving some number of domains (the actual number doesn't matter here -
it can be 1, 2...) and use the the domain _names_ not known as "local"
by this server as an argument in the MAIL FROM: _and_ RCPT TO: commands.

Here is the example. Imagine that one of my SMTP servers acts as a relay
for the following domains:
- besta.aernet.ru
- schastya.net
- athome.net.ru

There will be no problems when sending messages to, from or across these
domains. But if a client connects to this server and says

EHLO hostname.client.net.ru
MAIL FROM:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
RCPT TO:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

then after the last command the server would reply

550 Relaying denied

because none of the domains used by this kiddie are "local" to the
server.

never mind the From address.

And the recipient will reply to the Reply-To address, or if there is
none or they use a non-RFC compliant mailer, to the From address. they
will never know who you were logged in through, or whose SMTP server
you used; as you desire.

Well a ruling of the ISPA (www.ispa.be) (belgium organisation
regulating ISP's in belgium) stipulates that no SMTP server should
have an "open" line.  In short, ISP's are only allowed to give SMTP
access to users that reach them from withing their own dial-ins/leased
lines/DSL..., but not to someone connecting to it via some other
location on the internet.  And it doesn't matter whether you pay for
your account at a provider and indeed have a mailbox, you are simply
not allowed to send mail using their SMTP server if you didn't dial
into their server.

I've tried locating the actual rules concerning SMTP servers on the
site of the ISPA, but it's not there.  Maybe I need to write them an
e-mail. :-)

There's maybe only one or two providers in Belgium who haven't joined
the ISPA.  But they either don't provide mailboxes, or aren't worth
what they're asking to get an account.  And I have enough accounts
already, I really don't need more of them.  And I can't afford to drop
any of the ones I have and put 'em all onto one server. 

Contrary to what someone else suggested, xs4all.be is also a member of
the ISPA and doesn't have an open SMTP server.  In all practicality,
you can safely say that ALL ISP's in Belgium are member or the ISPA.

The "FROM:" is a combobox, and I can use it to select any of the
account names.  But, I can't make it displa the additional names I
have at any of the providers.
I can manually overtipe it bit it's tedious, why can't I just select

You could use the %Account macro in your templates.

If you wish to always reply using a particular account, then in your

Since you can define different templates for different folders, you

the %Account="" macro.

Inbox, outbox, Sent and Trash are system folders.  They do not have
all the options that other folders have.  These folders use most of
the account defaults only.

You need to create a new folder to see the options which are being
discussed.

Oh, and here might be a good place to note that you should *not*
remove the system folders.  You should also make sure that you keep
them at the same folder level as they are currently.  If TB doesn't
find folders with these names where it expects them, there will be
errors.

You have a couple of options.  Probably the best is to use templates
for this purpose.  For an excellent introduction to Quick Templates,
check out the FAQ entry at:

  http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/templates.html


I will assume you know something about templates in the following.  If
this is a bad assumption, please let me know and I'll be more
specific.

Create a Quick Template to change accounts. Then include this Quick
Template into any other Templates you define. Now when you connect
with a different ISP, you just need to change the Quick Template and
all mail will be sent through the appropriate ISP.

Ok, now you're saying, "That's great, but how do I do that?"  Here is
the step by step guide:

1. Create the Account Quick Template:
   a) Copy the following template fragment into your clipboard

  --- Begin Fragment ---
  %ACCOUNT="Connected Account"
  --- End Fragment ---

  Replace Connected Account with the account name of the account
  you want to use.  This should be the name you see in TB in the
  Folder List pane.
 
   b) Options -> Quick Templates -> New
   c) Paste in the fragment (use Ctrl-V, right click won't work.)
   d) Give the Quick Template a name like "Account"
   e) Make sure "Share with Other accounts" is enabled

   Note: It might be wise to define all templates you will use
 in Quick templates.  This will make all template management
 tasks easier in the future.

2. Include the Account Template into all your templates
   a) Use %QINCLUDE="Account" in your templates to include the Account
  quick template into the template.

   Note: You can include any Quick Template into any other Quick
 Template using the macro: %QINCLUDE="QT Handle"
 Just be careful to avoid creating infinite loops.

3. Change the Account QT at any time, and the change will be reflected
   next time you use any of your templates (ie, next time you reply).

Now, this method has one drawback, your outgoing messages will be
distributed in various Sent folders depending on which Account you're
using.  You can use Outgoing filters to sort out the mess.  Again, let
us know if you need help setting up this part.

> 2) I have multiple mail names at several of my mail accounts

> But, how do I define how to set another "From:" address when I reply
> to a mail from any of said inboxes.

You can edit the folder properties or create templates to do this.
I'm partial to templates since they can be more flexible, especially
with Quick Templates.  If you go the template route, the macros you're
looking for are:

 %FROM="You <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>"
 %REPLYT0="You <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>"

> When writing a mail, I can change the "From" to any of my account
> names, but I can't add my other mailboxes to it.

What do you mean "add my other mailboxes" ?

> Am I supposed to make a new mail account for each of my mail accounts

That is an option since filtering can occur across accounts within TB.
However, it depends on how you want the folders to be organised.  With
Templates and filters, you aren't *forced* to make new accounts within
TB.  You can accomplish this within one account.

> I haven't found an alternate way to make other "from" mail names.

I think I answered this above.  Let me know if I misunderstood.

It doesn't matter what account you are using on TB, what matters is
what CONNECTION you have. Choose whichever ISP is the most reliable
for you to connect to, and then use that one for all SMTP. When you
are logged on, it is not considered relaying. What is a problem if

The registered version is the same as the trial.

What you have to do is create another folder or subfolder, filter all
the incoming mail into that subfolder, and then set the subfolder
properties. You will see that you have a lot more options for setting
properties of folders & subfolders.

Have you thought of switching to xs4all.be? They are good
and solid, and probably they *do* use authentication for
their users and thus allow relaying. They are the most
reliable Dutch ISP (*) and set up a branch in Belgium a few
years ago.

(*) as in: both technically and politically - they have been
doing more than any other Dutch provider to protect freedom
of speech, digital civil rights etc.

Well, it will work if the ISP remains the same forever. But this isn't
the case.  It depends where I am which ISP I'll connect to.  Having to
go through all the accounts to change the settings doesn't seem like a
very good way to go about this.

NONE of the  ISP's in Belgium allow relaying.  Any Belgium ISP
allowing relaying will get fairly high fines for doing so.  It is a
way to avoid someone using their server for spamming, and I understand
why this is so.  Even though I still think they could solve it easy
enough if they used authentication.  but what is little me going to do
against big corporations :)
If you know of a provider /smtp server that I could use for relaying,
it may be a solution...

All I care about is that if they hit "reply" it will return into
whatever mailbox I sent a mail out of.  and as I said, I doubt any of
them is smart enough to figure out the real RFC (?) address.  ANd if
they do, well, just as long as Reply will get it where it's supposed
to.  A reply to a mail sent from support should arrive into the
support inbox.

The inbox, outbox, sent... only has a "general" tab.  Is it something
only available in the registered version ?

Re: Multiple email everything.

2001-01-04 Thread jdanforth1

This came in with my first batch of messages, I just bought the
program and subscribed today.  But your situation matches mine,
so I'll tell you how to set it up like mine.

1.  Set up a separate account for each email address you use.

2.  Set each of the accounts up with the appropriate POP3 server
info, including username and password.  But, for the SMTP (send)
server, enter in the server at the ISP you are connected to.

This way you don't have to filter the mail.  The 'From' will have
the correct address.  Works OK.

When you set the account options for that account, don't specify that
ISP's outgoing mail server. Under Account Properties, "Transport",
simply specify the SMTP server of whichever ISP you have that DOES
allow relaying & is most reliable.

The ONLY problem with this is that if you receive mail via a pop
server attached to domain1.com, and your mail is sent out via
domain2.com, this will appear in the RFC headers in the body of the
message, and it is possible that your mail could be rejected if the
intended recipient has filters that would block out mail from unknown
ISPs, or specifically domain2.com ISPs.

The "from" address will still be whatever you set it - the domain2.com
address will only be seen in the RFC headers. If you look at the
headers of this email, you will see that my email is at
"dyslexia.com", but this has been transmitted via ogopogo.flash.net -
I always do this.

Just right click on the folder where you are replying from, and choose
"Properties" - you can set everything under the tab marked "Identity".
