Re[2]: IMAP again
6/23/2009 s When you right click on the account in the tree view (the root node, s above the Inbox), there's an option synchronize all folders. That s might be what you're looking for.

Also, when Managing folders (right click on the account name) set the Synchronization ON for all or your subscribed folders (I would suggest to set Subscribe and Synchronize for your IMAP server side Inbox, Outbox, Sent, Trash folders).

Very much so! Your postings have been very helpful to me in reading. One of the problems Ive been having is how best to integrate IMAP into my every day useage since having moved from POP3. I like having messages stored in the file structure used by TB for POP, however the serverside storage and seamless usability from any machine is great. At the moment I have a 100mb quota on IMAP and my POP3 message based is currently 160mb which means I can't really transfer across so I currently move all messages from my IMAP inbox across to my old POP3 account. However I did experiment with uploading my message base to the IMAP server and got into all sorts of synchronisation and ghost folder problems (see earlier postings). Three things here: 1. A conversion facility to transfer a POP3 message base across to an IMAP server. 2. Speed was a real issue when synchronising 20 or more folders. 3. There seems to be a feeling that people would like syncrhonisation to be more obviously local storage.

Re[2]: IMAP - another specific query
Hello Kevin, KA Actually, all the IMAP servers are local on gig ethernet. Speed is not KA an issue. I will admit some of the speed issues are the result of my KA TB settings. I have had so many problems with IMAP synchronizations, I KA finally flush all the caches on exit so, on the resultant start-up, KA everything has to be restored. I also have autosync turned on. But, it KA is still significantly slower than Outlook or Thunderbird. Well, at home I'm working with IMAP at 21.6Kbit dial-up. So speed is a really *big* issue for me. And I prefer to use TB! without any synchronization - I just walk through folders and TB! loads only UIDS and Flags (downloading headers for last 1000 mails from TBBETA is quite slowly on clients which load full headers) . After selecting folder I'm walking through unread messages and only they are loaded - no overhead. So... May be Thunderbird is faster on wide connections, don't know and have no possibility to test -- :9Val: Current version is 2.11.02 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Re[2]: IMAP vs POP
JR Would someone be good enough to explain the differences, JR advantages, disadvantages of IMAP vs POP3 to me? I am trying to better understand this myself. So far here's what I have, which is *none* of the tech details and just *a bit* of the usage differences. With POP your choices *for receive* are A) leave mail on server or B) delete messages when downloaded. This means if you check your mail from 2 (or more) different machines *only* your primary machine would be the one you want set to delete mssgs. When checking from other PCs you would want to leave mail on server so everything ends up in only the one email client on your primary PC. This works well with no problems. When *sending* using POP there is no problem if you send from your primary PC - BUT, sending from any other PC would leave you no record of a sent message. The common work-around for this is to BCC yourself. It works, but is hardly perfect. With IMAP the server is smarter. It knows if you are at you primary PC or not and if you send from any other PC it puts the sent mssg into your sent mail folder in your primary email client for you.

Re[2]: IMAP and Sorting Office..
ken green wrote: kg OK. Manual is better than nothing, I suppose... :) Yes. Read and replied filters do work automatically though. kg Not my experience. But I could have done something wrong. I will kg test this some more. How are you marking items as read? There are two ways a message can be marked as read. - you manually mark it read. - it's automatically marked as read as defined in the account preferences/options. Read filters will be auto executed only when a) messages are automatically flagged as read by your defined time delay after it's being viewed, and and b) you now move to another message or folder/account. If you manually mark a message as read and then switch to another message, the filter will not execute. kg I wouldn't mind making *ALL* filters (for my IMAP/non-mail accounts) kg Read filters. I set them up to work only when a message is UnParked AND kg UnFlagged, so as I read mail (all in Inbox) messages get moved unless I kg mark them. -- this is working fine in 1.62r, by the way. Hmmm. They work no differently for IMAP, so if you have them working for POP then they should be working for IMAP. By the way, if your connection isn't fast, then messages will not be moved right away but on the next sync operation. Try dragging and dropping a message to another folder. If your connection is fast, the operation should be immediately carried out as if it were POP. However, if the connection is slow, it would seem as if nothing happened. At the next sync operation, TB! will send commands to the server to carry out the move operation and then the folders will be sync'd to reflect the move. Could this be the problem with your read filters? kg What about folders that are not on the server? Are they kg automatically created during the sync process? I don't understand what you're asking there. How would a local folder be automatically created during a sync operation? kg What about folders set to NOT sync? It looks like moving items to kg folders not set to sync marks the item for deletion. When you move a message from one folder to another, the copy in the source folder is marked for deletion while a copy is placed in the target folder. The copy in the source folder is permanently removed when the folder is compressed or expunged, expunged being the IMAP specific term used. kg I will double-check that behavior, but that is what I want - if I kg move a message to a common folder for reference/archiving/etc., kg marking it for deletion on the server - only after the move - kg would be great. I don't have any common folders here, but let's try here and see. I have a slow connection here at work. OK. I dragged and dropped the messages just fine. I'm not surprised with this since the source IMAP folders are set to fully sync with the servers. As a result, I have cached copies of messages. The moved messages were removed from the source IMAP folders list, i.e., marked for deleteion, and if I choose to compress/expunge, they'll be permanently removed. kg Read filters and manual processing is good enough for me for now :) I kg can be patient if the read filters will work. I have not installed any kg betas yet (clean, fresh install of CE)... maybe that is why the read kg filters didn't work? Probably, though I do recall them working since I started using IMAP. I'd recommend trying the latest beta if you're an IMAP user.

I believe filtering to another folder WITHIN THAT KG ACCOUNT does in fact work. Will double-check, but I'm pretty sure that KG was one of my tests and it worked. Ok, good. So the problem is with filtering from an IMAP folder to a local common folder. This doesn't seem to be possible. I just tried it and more than I expected happened. I did the following: - I created a common folder - I then adjusted one of my read filters to filter to it. - I then moved one of the target messages to my Inbox and marked it unread. - I opened the message where it was marked as read and moved to another message. Not only was it not moved, but another message appeared with no visible headers. Only the folder flag was visible. On looking at the message source, there was a lot of gibberish. After that, the Inbox was stuck. I had to restart SecureBat! to free things up. On the next try at autofiltering to the common folder nothing happened. I switched back the target folder to an IMAP folder and it worked again. Strange bug. KG This explains why I cannot filter to common folders. By their very KG nature, common folders don't belong to any account. It appears that KG common folders and IMAP are not going to dance together. I can live KG with that. Ok. KG You keep mentioning manually filter and it is confusing me. Aside KG from selecting the Re-filter messages from a folder right-click I KG don't know how you would *manually* filter. Yes. That's the way to do it. However, that seems to be disabled in TB! 2.03 beta/47. GONK!! :/ It seems to be OK here in SecureBat! Lite v2.03.47 KG If you cannot filter across accounts, then filtering to common folders KG isn't going to happen. But if filtering across accounts will become KG available in the future, I don't see why filtering to common folders KG couldn't be implemented as well. Agreed. KG The problem I see with filtering across accounts is the heavier KG traffic and server load. Is it substantially more complicated? Other clients, namely Mulberry already have this ability. So I don't see why this shouldn't be possible, especially if the accounts are on the same IMAP server. KG The problem I may run into (and this may be because of the new real KG implementation of IMAP) is that for my business account, I have a filter KG that redirects messages to my cell phone, giving me a notification of KG when I get an e-mail. 99% of the time, the small amount of info sent is KG enough for me (my carrier truncates messages that are too long/too big). Without autofiltering, this isn't possible, so a TB! IMAP account would have you stuck. KG Also.. (get ready to roll your eyes...) I have been testing on my KG laptop, right?

Who knows what other KG trouble this caused. I will remember to shut down the desktop while KG testing on the laptop. Note that with two proper IMAP clients this shouldn't matter.

Re[2]: IMAP purging compressing
Hello John, JM What is IMAP, how does one happen to get this type of email account JM instead of a regular pop account? I'm sure many people on this list could explain IMAP better than I. I've also read helpful introductions to IMAP on the web by typing in IMAP POP3 compared into google. Basically IMAP is a protocol which, rather than simply allowing a single-stream download from an inbox to a mail client, allows you to maintain the same folder structure, and exactly the same message store, between your mail client and your mail server. This basically means that your account as it appears on the bat will be replicated on the server so that when you log into its web-interface you will have things exactly the same as at home. One can also easily just download message headers, etc phew I have just switched to Fastmail, which looks impressivly reliable as a mail server, but I know myrealbox also hosts IMAP accounts. I guess it's most helpful if you need to use the web interface of your server a lot. Otherwise things aren't quite as smooth and seamless in the bat as with POP3, (as far as I'm concerned after a few days) mainly because of the synchronisation process, and, as I said in my original post, IMAP accounts need to be purged for moved and deleted mesages on the server to be finally sorted out of the folders they are coming from. AT the moment I can have up to 5 numbers in the Unread and Total columns combined of the message tree because the tree tells you how many messages in the folder on the bat and on the server. These figures don't match (between the bat and the server) until you purge the folder. But I hope the bat's IMAP will improve ... being the new protocol it will doubtless become more widely used. It has already improved a great deal in v2.01. It is now fully functional, it could just do with some refining. phew -- David Boggon [EMAIL PROTECTED] Current version is 2.01 | Using TBUDL information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Why did they mention a few TF clients and said IMAP functionality for others will be implemented TF soon? Imap must be difficult to implement -- the Depart of Education within the state of Maine uses an Email server/client called First Class and Imap functionality there doesn't work well either. I had asked the developers about this and they claimbed that there are inconsistancies within the Imap protocol therefore making it difficult to implement. I found this a bit hard to believe, but in truth, most mail clients seemed to have gone through a difficult time when attempting to incorporate Imap functionality.

Re[2]: IMAP and receiving all new messages automatically
Hi again! You know, most ISP suck one way or the other. I suggest that you get an account from a public site and ask them to forward your e-mail there (they shouldn't have trouble with that, actually they will love that you aren't using up their harddrive space). I.e. Yahoo! Mail can accept enough e-mails, then you can download from POP (that's what I'm doing), they have a small quota but it doesn't matter if you are downloading locally your e-mail on a regular basis. I think Hotmail also allows that. Nothing beats having e-mail locally, especiall for mail lists, it's great to do searches.
