Ah, I think you may be onto something Robin. I think Roelof and MFPA may have tested the wrong thing. The filter/search thing I'm referring to is the one on the main Bat toolbar, it has a field 'search', a 'next' button to the right, and a 'previous' button to the left. So yes, it is probably called the Quick Search (if The Bat helpfile mentions what it is called, I can't find it - The Bat really, really badly needs some proper documentation). I don't think it accepts message-id, but I didn't pick up on that until you mentioned it. Anyway, click in that search field on the toolbar, type in something that will only produce one message as the result, and then click on it and see what it shows in the preview pane below the message list. If you had highlighted another message apart from the one listed in the results of the search before you did the search, 'no message loaded' will appear and you won't be able to read the message. If you highlighted that message that appears in the results before you did the search though, it looks as though it works ok. -- Regards, Mr Happy ________________________________________________ Current version is 4.2.6 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
