If I open the Folder View, I can move the window to open to the side of the folder list in the main window. Then, I can see the messages information for the folder. The messages unread also updates as messages are read. Yes. This is what I've been doing but I do use a 17" monitor and this method produced enough inconvenience to provoke the suggestion, that's all. I guess the suggestion is borne of the same reason why the View Folder window has it's own message list. Technically it doesn't need one for the same reason as you described above. BTW, what do you find to be the advantages of working from the folder view? I've never seen much point for it, but then I'm fond of 3-pane mailers. The message navigation keys do not work on the main window list with the message autoview open. I also use an app called AIM Keys which I used to make easier keyboard shortcuts to read messages. The scroll function being the main one. The Alt+up/down was getting to me. :)) Somehow the shortcut macros (imagine keyboard shortcut macros for keyboard shortcuts!! LOL) wouldn't work well in the TB main window. The quick search facility would be annoyingly launched. I use a virtual desktop manager and also at time carry a view folder window to another desktop. -- Regards, -=Ali=- Fer Sell Cheep: 1 Bran New Spel Chekker.

View Folder Window and status line
Hi all, It would be nice if the View Folder window had a little status line which indicates the amount of messages in the folder being displayed, as well as the number of new messages (which dynamically updates as you read the new messages). This would make the window really self-contained with all the info one needs. :) -- -=Ali=- Minds are like parachutes, they only work when open. ** Using The Bat! v1.38 Beta/2 [-] Windows NT 4.0 (Service Pack 6) ** -- -- View the TBUDL archive at http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double click here: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBUDL, double click here and send the message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] --
