That's why I I've been switching to address book templates somewhat and the autocomplete feature is flaky at best. I created a new address book 'Mail Lists' with tbudl and tbot entries Set autocomplete to check all address books On a new message entering TB pops in the tbot entry and thats all I can get. Continuing on to spell out TBUDL doesn't help. It's like it is only parsing the first two and then the first match it finds simply is either it or expects me to manually enter a proper email address. If I remove the TBOT entry then it will find the TBUDL entry and use it. I figure it may have something to do with the entry I have made and the autocomplete I've tried a few approaches thinking perhaps the entry is causing problems. No matter what the autocomplete seems to not work reliably with the history option off (just multiple addr books on) I thought that I'd beaten it by deleting the addr entries and adding them from the message via RT click.. Seemed to work for a bit then quit. (I think that I left history autocommplete on and upon turning it off things went bad again) Is this behavior that has been seen before or am I just lucky and TB is messing with me? If anyone has dialed in the logic used in autocomplete I'd love to hear it.. I gave up after 30 mins or so of investigating since I got tired of fooling with it. On a similar note, has anyone ever discovered a way to purge the history(addy,subject etc, MRU type,etc) strings that get cached in TB? -- Pixie Using The Bat! v1.62r on Windows 95 4.0 Current version is 1.62r | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

One thing that caught my attention is for some reason my mail has -0400 in the header instead of -0500, as indicated by your template. I'm unaware of any way to adjust this aside from the time zone setting in windows..

I'm not real knowledgeable about e-mail headers.. So you mean to say that what I put in the template is added to the message header? I was thinking the templates are basically cosmetic. I don't recall what was in there but my name was inserted in the message so I just tried a few until I actually saw "Thomas Fernandez" show up.. doh!

Seems IMAP related and I read that the IMAP code is getting some due consideration. The hot-keys aren't so bad.

I really haven't examined this area much so I appreciate the jump-start you gave me. As you pointed out though, perhaps I should be looking at AB templates instead.
