 Friends,

 I've noticed something similar, at least in the past few versions of
 The Bat (I'm on 1.60q now). The on exit settings seem to be ignored
 for folders in trees which aren't expanded...but if I expand the
 folder tree before I exit the program, the folders are purged.

 How odd...

 I ticked those off, and messages are still remaining in the folder.

Why won`t the Bat get rid of old mail

2002-06-18 Thread Databug

Hello all,
I have the mailing list folders set to not have more than 150 mails in
them (Using the folders properties window). Befor this I tried the get
it to delete mails after 10 days. neither of these settings seem to do
anything. I currently have 280 mails in the Bat ml folder alone and I
would like to keep them down. If I have mis-understood something could
someone give me an idiots guide to how to set this kind of thing up?

That`s all for now

Software suppliers are trying to make their software packages more 'user-friendly' 
Their best approach, so far, has been to take all the old brochures, and stamp the 
words, 'user-friendly' on the cover.

You'll have to 'Purge' this (or all) folder(s) to make The Bat! cleaning up
following the rules you've set in folder properties.

This can either be done on 'Exit', when set in folder properties on first
tab sheet at the very end, or manually when choosing menu 'Folder' /
'Purge+Compress' or 'Folder' / 'Purge All Folders'.

These figures work when you purge the folder. Over here, I manually
Purge  Compress All Folders every few days, but you can also let TB
handle this automatically:

Folder / Properties / General / On Exit...

I have it set to remove old messages on Exit. Do you have to have
compress folder set too?
