The Bat! 7.4.16

Improvements

  • Increased speed of entering a folder or sorting messages in the list by "From/To/Subject" columns if there are only Latin characters. The speed increase is mostly noticeable in folders with more than 100 thousand messages
  • If you have Account|Properties|Verbose log turned on, then The Bat!, on the "Send queued mail" command will write addition information to the log: on total number of messages in the outbox, and on the number that has not been selected for sending because of "parked" or "sending" status
  • The Bat! can log Simple MAPI calls. To enable logging, do the following. Uder "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\RIT\The Bat!" add DWORD value named "LogMapiCalls", value "1". Then, restart The Bat!. After that, The Bat! will create mapi_log.txt file in the %EMAIL% directory and will append lines to it every time an application like MS Word or MSIE wants to send a message or do any other MAPI function
  • Welcome message (in "Inbox") is no longer used for IMAP accounts
  • MD5 hash has been removed from the S/MIME preferences
  • When non-OpenPGP mode is selected, the PGP menu items in the message editor are hidden
  • (#0000062) The Bat! didn't highlight addresses with equal sign ("=") in the local-part. If such addresses were displayed in the headers, there were no menus to carry out operations over them such as adding to the address book
  • Import S/MIME certificates(s) from a signed message didn't always work
  • Default print margins are now 0.25 (quarter) inch
