Re[2]: Follow-up header (was: Common courtesy on threading!)
Hello Cyrille, snip No Follow-up possibility was in the context menu of possibilities. Nor do I quite understand the show and hide reference, but suspect that is applicable to the newer version releases. I am using an older version of The Bat!, Version 2.0.0 Oh well ... Cyrille, thanks for your very gracious and detailed help. Pretty good steps to follow. BTW, my Dad's name was Cyrille ;) C I am not your Dad. But I give you the advice to upgrade to the latest C version (2.11.02). Don't be afraid it does not hurt (only a little C bit). LMAO! Good advice, but I've never been one to have to have the latest and greatest ... only the more tested, true and stable is what I would like. Heck, The Bat! people have seemed to put out more versions in a shorter period of time than a blink of an eye! Here's hoping they don't rush too fast with all those wild and wonderful newfangle features and functionality releases as it is a very good product overall IMHO. Then again, they do have a huge number of field testers around the world, right? LOL! Your folks comments will give me a hint when to upgrade. C P.S If your Dad had such I nice name, why did he call you C 'subscriber2list' then??? (-: Well, that's a loong story, but to cut to the chase, he gave my brother the English version of Cyrille, i.e., Cyril. I use the subscriber2list handle and others to sort of figure out potentially where SPAM may come from as I subscribe to many other list as well. My name is Dirigo. Thanks again for all your help and suggestions! -- Best regards, subscriber2list Current version is 2.11.02 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

When I was running TB! v. 2.00.6, I MB had no Follow Up headers option offered anywhere. Oooh, thanks for the input ... you must have been chuckling there for awhile, but, Mary ... you could have saved me and others bandwidth and grey matter. LOL! Just kidding 'ya! MB It was with considerable shock, in a long thread on tbot, that I saw MB Greg's handy routine. Well, I guess I should have been over on the tbot thread, huh? I liked Greg's description of how-to and thought it a great function. He didn't chime in when I asked the initial question, so either he is/wa very busy and didn't see it or thought Hey, I don't want to rehash it. MB Skeptical, I gave it a try, and it did work. In fact, once I ticked MB the Follow Up option, that header remained in my Edit Mail Message MB window whenever I was replying to a message. The line was occupied by MB the ID display header in the View Folder window. Great! MB Sometimes I untick it, just to save my viewing headers space. Understand ... save the screen real estate. MB I think it's probably now definite that versions 2.00.0 through MB 2.00.6 do not contain these options. I think you're probably correct here. MB I stayed there for a long time, perfectly happy. Finally took the MB plunge and upgraded. That went smooth as silk--just downloaded right MB over my old TB! With The Bat! closed, of course. Well, good for you! I too am perfectly happy (within reason, that is In time I will more than likely take the plunge, but I'm wondering how does RIT price all these upgrades? What I mean is ... every time there is a new release, does one have to pay for the upgrade? It would seem so, but they release so many upgrades within a short period of time, they're beginning to remind me of a few other software houses. MB If you want this handy routine, you could try upgrading. It's free to MB all 2.xx users. I'm not quite sure I understand ... the handy routine is free if I upgrade? Do I pay for the actual upgrade, i.e., from Version 2.00.x to Version 2.11.x? I would think so, but since I haven't been into upgrading very much, I most certainly do not know. Hey, next time you see where I'm digging myself into a hole here ... please yell a wee bit earlier and ... pull me out. Thanks, Mary. I really do appreciate your comments and what you have experienced with your past versions of The Bat! It is a good product and I do like it. Kind of a fun product to me. It opens up so many opportunities to ask so many questions. Take care. -- Best regards, subscriber2list Current version is 2.11.02 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Hello Mary, Wednesday, June 30, 2004, 3:47:57 PM, you wrote: snip MB Sorry about the ambiguous construction of my sentence in the post MB you're replying to, where I said, It's free. :) Upgrading from MB v.2.00.x to any subsequent version is definitely free. Including MB to the latest (current) one: v. 2.11.02 I don't think you were ambiguous ... I just always like to confirm what I think I've read ... possibly a bad habit on my part. snip MB I just ignore the new features which I don't understand. It's entirely MB feasible to do that. So I don't use any Virtual Folders, and I never MB did use any color groups (although these were available long ago in MB earlier versions). MB The features I like are: MB 1) Viewing mail on the Mail Dispatcher before downloading MB 2) Address Book templates MB 3) Quick templates MB 4) Making filters--once a slight learning curve is mastered Thanks for the input.
