I recently switched my main e-mail account from POP3 to IMAP. I'm running The Bat on two computers, with identical settings, and while it works fine on one computer, it's nearly unusable on the second computer:
- messages don't download automatically despite "Message download preferences" being set to "Get entire message" for both read and unread messages, and when clicking a message, it sometimes takes several minutes before it downloads; same for sending messages, it takes minutes before the message is processed (Outbox, Sent and Trash are set to use IMAP folders) - the green arrows on folders never disappear (TB is set to update counters every 5 minutes), and counts in folders are almost never updated - thebat64.exe constantly uses 26% CPU (the second computer has a quad-core i5-2400 CPU) - I even tried deleting TB's profile folder and re-creating the account, but nothing changed (account folder on disk hovers around 156 MB, while it's 23 GB on my primary computer) At the same time, TB on my primary computer works entirely without any problems - periodically refreshes folders (I have a lot of filters set-up server-side), downloads messages without any delay and doesn't have problems sending. I've got The Bat 9.4.5 on both computers, first one is running Windows 11, while the second one is Windows 10 21H1. -- < Jernej Simončič ><><><><><><><><><><><>< https://eternallybored.org/ > Because 10 billion years' time is so fragile, so ephemeral... it arouses such a bittersweet, almost heartbreaking fondness. ________________________________________________________ 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
