Thanks to everybody who answered my mail yesterday and welcomed me to the list.
Unfortunately, nobody seems to have any solution to my major problem: that The Bat is busy working with something for ca 15 minutes every morning before it downloads my mails. As I said, I've unchecked the virus and spam check functions and none of my other e-mail clients have ever behaved this strange way, so I'm completely at a loss. Of course I have a firewall and a virus program but why would they only interfere with the Bat and not with the other mail programs? I forgot to mention that the Bat is only checking one single e-mail account, not many at the same time. > It's impossible to start a new line by pressing Enter. >Yes, that's the way I do it. ;-) > Options -> Preferences -> Editor prefrences -> uncheck 'Autoformat' I used to have Autoformat unchecked at the beginning, but when I had written an e-mail and afterwards added something in it, the line kept going on to the right for the whole paragraph, till I pressed Enter. This made me desperate, and I was so happy when I found the Autoformat function which stopped this. Does this mean I have to choose between either no word-wrapping or being able to press Enter for a new line (or toggle between them) - isn't it possible to have both at the same time? I find the Bat great in many ways, but 15 minutes expensive online time to download a few mails is in the long run intolerable, I'm afraid. :-( -- Best regards, Britt ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.10.03 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
