DP The VPN dialup adapter sends all traffic into my work site so TB!
DP cannot poll for mail for long periods.
Why not just turn off auto checking and do it manually when it's
convenient?

I can't believe your moaning about an always on connection. I've had
BB for over a year now and wouldn't be without it. I know plenty of
people who would love a BB connection.
MR I've not found a convenient way to pause all TB! polling,
There is a very simple method that I use when I want to stop The Bat!
interfering with other things I do.
MR but a one-click (and/or keyboard shortcut) solution would be
MR really nice for this.
And there is a simple One Click solution that stops TB! polling and
a simple One Click Solution that starts it polling again.
Little red cross, top right hand of the title bar. One click shuts TB!
down. Little yellow and black icon on the desktop, one click restarts
TB! again.
You may need a double click to re-start it but my PC is set up for single
clicks.
It sounds exactly like the feature your asking for and believe it or
not it does exactly what your asking it to do.
I know your talking about being able to suspend TB's on line activity
without actually shutting it down but what's the difference?

Finally, since I don't really want to disable entirely the error beep sound system wide, every five minutes or so I'm treated to a staggered series of 10 such annoying error beeps. The primary reasons I may want to work offline with TB! for a bit is either when I'm making a TB! backup or if I'm playing with/changing some settings that might be affected by connection issues. Since I don't know exactly what to expect if new email is downloading while the backup is in progress, I prefer to simply be offline during this procedure. This way, I know exactly where the cut-off line is between the backup and when I begin to receive new mail again. It seems to me a perfectly reasonable solution - for both DUN users who might pay for their connections by the hour or for ethernet users with a particular reason for wanting an offline option, to have a simple on/off toggle switch for the periodic mail polling. -- Melissa PGP public keys: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]Body=Please%20send%20keys TB! v2.01.3 on Windows XP 5.1.2600 Service Pack 1 pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature Current version is 2.01.3 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

If David does not use DUN, then that is a way to disable or set off-line. Change from LAN/Ethernet to DUN and have No automatic dial for periodical mail checking already selected.

MR That seems a rather flippant remark considering that some of us may
MR find a use for working *with* TB! while in an offline mode.
Well it wasn't meant to be. I just find it strange that someone with
an Always on connection would want to turn it off. I've had an
always on connection for over a year, TB! is always running and wether
I'm reading, writing or just browsing through my mail, auto mail
collection doesn't get in that way. All that happens is the ticker
appears top of the screen.
If it does get in the way of other activities I just close TB! down.
For example if I'm grabbing digital video, auto mail collection can
cause lost frames for the split second it takes to collect the mail.
MR In any event, why not offer us a simple toggle switch?
Maybe they're thinking the way I am. I see no reason whatsoever to
suspend auto mail collection unless it gets in the way of another
application. There is no cost issue with BB. If you have no programs
at all running it is still on If it does get in the way, just close
it. If your working with TB! then auto mail polling can be made
completely transparent other than new unread mail appearing every now
and again. It needn't interrupt what your doing at the time.
I believe you mentioned making backups? How hard is it to make your
backup in between mail collection times? I personally don't use the in
built backup facility. I use Januks .bat file to back the registry up
and Winrar to zip the whole folder up... And I have to shut TB! down
to do that. Takes a minute at most and my auto times are 5 minutes
apart. TB! doesn't even know it's been done :)
With a dial up you pay by the minute and so the ability to auto
disconnect makes financial sense. With BB, you pay a fixed price per
month wether you use it or not.

JBL Maybe NTL's mail servers are more reliable than Pipex's
I can honestly say in the past year I've had no trouble at all with
NTL for any reason. It used to take about 10 to 15 minutes to obtain a
an IP via DHCP first thing in the morning. Chap on the phone said
don't unplug the modem at bed time. I've had no trouble since.
JBL It is very irritating when TB! dings (or whatever your error sound is)
JBL every few minutes when there is a problem with mail collection.
Just turn the sounds off. As far as I know, no error boxes pop up
(I've never seen one but I don't use Pipex :) just the odd entry in
the log.
Like I said before, I carry on using TB! regardless. The most that
happens here is I get new unread mail appearing. It's just happened
while I'm writing this but it's in the background and didn't interfere
with what I was doing in any way.
Maybe a change of ISP with a more reliable mail server would help in
cutting down on the errors. I personally don't think it's a Bat issue
but then, maybe I use mine different to you.

Then you could maybe specify a rather large interval for each account, say an hour or so, and you will know exactly how much time you have got for reading your messages in peace. If you want to check for new messages before the hour has passed, you can still press Alt-F2, right?

My only solution so far is to turn off the connection dialogue and turn off all beeps. My problem is magnified by using a VPN to login to my work site - which I do many times during the day. The VPN dialup adapter sends all traffic into my work site so TB! cannot poll for mail for long periods. cheers, davidp. -- David Pascoe, mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED], Western Australia Using The Bat! v2.01.26 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 1 Current version is 2.01.3 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Is there a way to read messages in an off-line mode? AL I, too, cannot think of a solution to this problem, One idea: Tell your firewall to stop all internet traffic while you want to be off-line. -- Rich Current version is 2.01.3 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
