I agree that ALL syncro options should be disabled since they do not work. It is better to not have a feature than have one that does not work, no?
Thunderbird seems to have the Syncro stuff working much better than all other clients. They are open source, can't Ritlabs just copy and paste the code? I set all my settings to your suggestions, then did a restart, then did a folder maintenance with all options on all folders. This fixed 34 folders. I then found my local TBat mail folders were 7.2GB, yes Gigabytes. I deleted all the BIN, TBI, and TBB files (Ritlabs, this is a bug, I should not have to do this, please fix this) and now everything seems reasonable. You were also correct about speed. Even though the message are not local, things are surprisingly fast. I have one more question for you. > The outbox is local. By this do you mean you have NO check next to Outbox? This is another bug. How the F*&^ is a new user supposed to know to do that. I recommend against The Bat! as an IMAP client for new users until Ritlabs gets it working better. I best stop. I am frustrated now wishing an IMAP client existed that is, possibly, not able to be made. -- Best regards, John Thomas Using The Bat! v3.61.09 Echo (Beta) on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 Service Pack 2 ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 3.61.09 (Echo) | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/
