Re: adress book

2008-04-18 Thread Alto Speckhardt
Hello Christopher,


 For some reason, my TheBat-users tend to loose their adress book
 settings. They have a company-wide adress book that is originally
 set as default, but after the event it is no longer registered in
 the adress book browser.
 Is this an LDAP directory?

No, just a file on a network drive shared by a few clients.

Might there be a race condition when a second client tries to load the
file that is just being written by the first one? And if unsuccessful
once, the TheBat instance forgets all about the file it couldn't load
this once?


 I want to re-add it and set it as default by remote, without the
 user necessarily being logged in. How can I do that?
 Would a group policy or login script work?

Yes, this would work very well. I could even ask the users to execute
a script when it's that time again, but I can't ask them to edit the
registry and I can't import a *.reg file either because TheBat names
the adress book keys incrementally (book3 is not loaded if there is no
book2 key). By the way, is this still true in the first place?

Do you have an other idea how to realize this?

Yep, that's right.

R but what is the name prefix for then?

You can use that too of course, but as I tend to stop entering data
after I complete the first page, I also tend to forget those other
fields.

Of course you can use the prefix too. In that case you can use
a wider variety of prefixes: Mr, Miss, Mrs, Prof, Dude, whatever.
As you mentioned before, you'd only like to use it when it's entered
and no extra space, so you'd get something as:

That would do fine, two comments though.

With your last check you check whether you have nothing to do or
nothing to do. ;-) So you'd do best to forget about that.

Also I was using the %- macro to enhance the readability. It does
nothing but tell TB to ignore the fact the it's the end of a line, so
when you place something right behind it, you can forget it.

So my result would be:

Guten Tag %If:%ABToGender=2:Frau :%-
%If:%ABToGender=1:Herr :%-
%ABToName=%ToName,

Or

Guten Tag %If:%ABToGender=2:Frau :%-
%If:%ABToGender=1:Herr :%ABToName=%ToName,

Or even

Guten Tag %If:%ABToGender=2:Frau :%If:%ABToGender=1:Herr

Save all texts between the long lines as a quick template called
Greet_All_Recipients. That name is important, because it calls itself
recursively.
Whenever you'd like to use it you use this macro:
%QInclude(Greet_All_Recipients)

Quick templates (on this list commonly named QT) can be inserted in
the QT editor:
  Options - Quick Templates

The nice thing about this template is that it picks the addressing
part too. When you're sending your message in the morning, it'll say
Guten Morgen, otherwise it says Guten Tag

It's a bit more formal than you might like, as it doesn't use any
first names, but than again it triggers the handle first, when you've
entered that. But you can change that by altering this:
%Capital(%ABToHandle=^%ABToLName=+%ToLName+^), %-
into this:
%Capital(%ABToHandle=^%ABToName=+%ToName+^), %-

 The easiest way would be to use %ABToName instead of %ABToFirstName
 and %ABToLastName, that way you can use the build in shortcut:
 %ABToName=%ToName

 Of course you can use %ABToFirstName=%ToFName and
 %ABToLastName=%ToLName, but %ToFName and %ToLName give the same
 result when the To header contains only one name part.

 There is the option to use an %If macro like this
 %IF:%ABToFirstName%ABToLastName=:%ToName:%ABToFirstName %ABToLastName
 but this hurts my feelings for esthetics. (Apart from forgetting about
 any middle names that might be very important for the addressee.)

You maybe already have an adress book group for your customers (if not,
create one). Simply open the properties of that group and adjust the
templates for new messages and/or replies, using macros that pull the
information from the adress book (like %ABFromFName, etc. - refer to the

The advantage of different ABs is that you can let different accounts
default to different ABs. That means that the entries in one account's
AB can be inaccessible to other accounts. Thus enabling you to have
multiple entries for the same contact (in different ABs) and still
have the expected output when you're using different AB-templates for
each of them.
This could come in handy when you're having a contact that's both a
personal friend and a business contact and you want to use different
AB templates in depending on the account (and thus the AB) that you're
using.

The advantage of one AB is that all of your contacts are available to
all accounts. You can do your filtering based on AB-groups (you can't
filter on the ABs themselves). When a contact changes his address, you
don't have to go through all of your ABs, just change it in your one
AB.

As I'm doing a lot of filtering based on ABs, my preference is clear.

Hi Alexander,
  I have a specific address group for contacts from my Church. One which
  is separate from my others. I have filters which are created for
  that specific group helps me, which include some color filters as
  well as auto responders from time to time.

The built-in Known filter does this. It can be activated to move mails

Two possibilities, it was the Known filter, a default option in the
sorting office or it was a filter using the options 'Adresses must be
in the address book' or 'Adresses must not be in the Address book'
that can be on the 'Advanced' tab of the filter. (You need to scroll
down after selecting the 'Advanced' tab.)

Using separate AB is a great idea, but it would be desirable to
share some groups. By user request, of course.

It's been there since you imported the addressbook. TB didn't recognize *all*
