Re[3]: Suggestion: Warn if no subject entered
A kind of frivolous suggestion I guess, but as you can tell from my previous post, I have a hard time remembering to enter a subject sometimes. I think it would be worthwhile to have a warning message when we press the send or queue button if we haven't entered a subject. You wouldn't believe it: I sent this suggestion already one year ago, and others did as well. But nothing has happened BTW Microsoft Outlook has this feature. I hate to compare The Bat! to Outlook, which I hate, but I've used several email packages that have this option.

Re[3]: Suggestion: Warn if no subject entered
Kevin, So what? Set all the defaults so that the idiot proof messages DON'T come up. I personally prefer software that gives me some kind of control over things. I'd rather have more options than I'll ever use than to be frustrated because I have none at all. Yesbut... check out the big new software packages: MS products, Staroffice etc. They have so many options you don't need and so much annoying automation you don't find the options you need anymore. Even the Bat! is already so rich with features I have troubles finding some options. That's why 'd like the idea of a kind of simple scripting language to "program" your customizations yourself at need. -Jast -- -- View the TBUDL archive at http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBUDL, click below and send the generated message. mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] --
