Avram. That was an excellent example of how *Nnot* to write a reply on this list. Top quoting - a nono. Too much quoting - a nono. PLEASE ACCEPT MY APOLOGIES. THE RULES MAKE SENSE. THE REASON IT HAPPENED THIS TIME IS THAT I AM ON A NUMBER OF LISTS AND THIS IS THE ONLY ONE FOR WHICH THIS IS A HARD RULE, AND, UNTIL RECENTLY, HADN'T USED THE LIST SO MUCH. ALSO, WHEN I AM AT THE OFFICE, TOP QUOTING FOR INTERNAL MAIL IS THE NORM, SO I FORGET WHEN I AM RESPONDING TO OUTSIDE MAIL. AFTER THIS NOTE, I WILL CUT AND PASTE AND INSERT QUOTES (WHICH I WILL HAVE TO DO MANUALLY--SEE BELOW) You're using the "Outlook" standard reply format, one that I find awful (but I'm feeling more like Canute by the day on that score). It is called "top quoting" and means that you let the quotes appear at the bottom and type your reply at the top. AT THE OFFICE, I AM ACTUALLY USING LOTUS NOTES. UNLIKE THE BAT, LOTUS PUTS THE OLD MESSAGE AT THE BOTTOM AND DOES NOT PUT QUOTES, CARRETS, OR ANY OTHER IDENTIFYING MATERIAL IN FRONT OF THE LINES OF THE OLD MESSAGE. THUS, IF ONE RESPONDS BY INTERSPERSING COMMENTS, AS I AM NOW DOING, UNLESS ONE WERE TO GO THROUGH THE TEDIOUS EXERCISE OF PLACING A QUOTE MARK BEFORE EACH LINE OR CUTTING AND PASTING (AND STILL INSERTING QUOTATION MARKS), USING CAPITAL LETTERS, AS I AM NOW DOING, IS THE ONLY WAY TO DISTINGUISH OLD MATERIAL FROM NEW MATERIAL. OF COURSE, THIS ONLY WORKS ONCE AND I KNOW THAT ORDINARILY, CAPS HAVE A GRATING EFFECT ON A FAIR NUMBER OF PEOPLE. I COULD ALSO USE A DIFFERENT COLOR PEN. EG, THIS SENTENCE IS WRITTEN IN BLUE. HOWEVER, I DON'T KNOW IF NON-LOTUS USERS CAN SEE THE FORMATTING CHANGE. However, if this can be seen by all users, then this is probably the most expedient way to respond without inserting quotes or using caps. I have many reasons to *not* prefer the "top quoting" method: [SNIP] I AGREE WITH ALL OF YOUR POINTS, BUT UNLESS YOU HAVE ANY ALTERNATIVE SUGGESTIONS, IT IS A PAIN TO HAVE TO INSERT QUOTE MARKS BEFORE EACH LINE--ALTHOUGH I DO DO IT OFTEN ENOUGH [SNIP] Now - to business: AS>>> How does one go about setting up The Bat on a home network ... >> ... you can set up BAT that it downloads the mail, but it leaves on >> the server. ...

One machine runs TB in TCP/IP server MW> mode and the others work in workstation mode with their mail storage MW> on the server machine. There was nothing I read in The Bat Networking that referred to sharing. Ok, wait now, sorta, though hard to follow. Well, I think it just passes from server to client, and that is it. The basic function it was providing, it said: 'The Bat! can work either as a stand-alone program or as a replacement for a mail (POP/SMTP) server within a local network (e.g. Windows Workgroup, Windows NT Domain or Novell Netware) at the same time as providing the client part. There are three network modes in which The Bat! can function: stand-alone (TCP/IP Workstation), server (TCP/IP or Dial-Out Server )or client (Non-TCP/IP Workstation).' And later I read this part: 'TCP/IP or Dial-out Server: the server mode It is possible that client computers in a local network have no access to the Internet or that there are some restrictions in force that prevent these computers from using mail transfer protocols. In order to provide users of such machines with E-Mail exchange facilities within the Internet and/or the corporate network, there must be a mail (POP/SMTP) server within the workgroup or domain.' With no connection to the Internet, there is no connection, this made no sense to have a connection when there was none. The whole purpose of this particular setup seems to be encapsulated above, and therefore very hard to fathom why to use that. -- Best regards, Adam Current Ver: 1.61 FAQ: http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Bug Reports: https://www.ritlabs.com/bt/

I think because if you just tried to move the files via the path in the mail-directory settings, it moves the local files to the new location, overwriting whatever is there (I guess). And if you already have mail files there, say good bye to them ;) Where as if you just change the registry entry, it updates it nice and easily, and stops TB! from moving files about. -- Jonathan Angliss ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Current Ver: 1.61 FAQ: http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Bug Reports: https://www.ritlabs.com/bt/

So TB should not notice any difference - I hope. :-) Shouldn't that work? -- TIA, Regards Hanspeter The Bat! v1.53t unter Windows 95 4.0 Build B Current Ver: 1.61 FAQ: http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Bug Reports: https://www.ritlabs.com/bt/
Re[2]: downloading e-mail on home network to computer A using computer B
Right. This is how mine is setup. One machine runs TB in TCP/IP server mode and the others work in workstation mode with their mail storage on the server machine. After I fiddled around with it enough it's been working just great. The server runs all the time, picks up mail from five or six different accounts every five minutes, and I can turn the workstations off for the night and pick up in the morning. In a networked office environment this has the advantage of allowing local mail. This means not only that you can send mail among users in an office, but that TB is smart enough that if I send mail to one of the ISP accounts that TB knows about, the message just drops into the inbox without going out to the internet at all.

Probably make sure both machines run the same version of TB; but I don't know if that matters. Make sure you are happy with the account structure with your mails. Now install TB on the second machine normally, if you haven't already. Run REGEDIT on first machine. Export the following registry key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\RIT\The Bat! Since you have the same Windows OSs on each machine, that should be simple. Make sure your second machine can access that exported file. Without openning TB, on the second machine, import that registry key. Now while you are still running Regedit, go to that registry section, and advance to Working Directory. Enter here the path to the mail directory on the first machine. You could cut and paste from Windows Explorer or whatever. Quit Regedit. And I think you can run TB now. This should work fine! If it didn't work, go back and make sure you had set the original Mail directory to be shared Full, not Read only. There is some delay accessing big folders from the second machine. You might be able to alleviate that if you know how to write scripts (I don't really).

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi [EMAIL PROTECTED], @17 July 2002, 17:04 -0500 (23:04 UK time) [EMAIL PROTECTED] in [EMAIL PROTECTED]">mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] said: First things first. Avram. That was an excellent example of how *Nnot* to write a reply on this list. Top quoting - a nono. Too much quoting - a nono. You're using the "Outlook" standard reply format, one that I find awful (but I'm feeling more like Canute by the day on that score). It is called "top quoting" and means that you let the quotes appear at the bottom and type your reply at the top. I have many reasons to *not* prefer the "top quoting" method: o It is harder to follow points raised and counterpoints made without them being interspersed. o Following on from that, as you go through the quotes interspersing your replies and clipping the "fluff", you actually ensure that all points raised and questions asked are covered. o The message chain becomes a lot more conversational. o Rather than growing exponentially with each reply in a thread, the message size is kept reasonable and to the point - if the back-reference is that important, surely it's on file! o Responses have immediate context rather than being a bolt out of the blue at the top of a message making you scroll down to re-read the original - not an easy task when it's in the light grey italics I happen to use to show signatures ;-). I know there are some instances where top-quoting is necessary - particularly in dealing with a technical support department where an issue may be passed around from person to person and the entire message chain needs to be kept live. I actually have a special template I use for such occasions. At all other time, I champion the cause of conversational email! :-). As a result of top quoting, your posting includes all signatures and previous list footers of the message you are replying to - another no-no and this one is against the list rules. Please trim your replies.
