I have used them for years and really liked them, but lost .dll file yesterday. I downloaded icons pack on Lognrock forum long time ago, but forum is down for some time. I know there are icons on skwire.net: http://www.skwire.net/~apps/becky/icons/ but there is no tango icons. ------------------------------------ </pre> dj_pustak 2013-05-10T17:59:03 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.becky.users/4639 <pre>This is a minor update at http://davidskirk.org/becky/ This includes the new feature for Sync with Portable Media, some minor updates to the text explaining that feature and a minor update on XP support for CardDAV. david ------------------------------------ david &lt;dskirk-Jdbf3xiKgS8&lt; at &gt;public.gmane.org&gt; ------------------------------------ </pre> david 2013-05-08T16:11:39 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.becky.users/4633 <pre>Hi, is the developer reading this list? Or where to send bug reports? I try it here... There is a problem (for years, until the newest version) when there is activated "Setup/Message View/HTML View/Convert to plain text". When mail text contains mutated vowels (&amp;auml; &amp;ouml; &amp;uuml; and also &amp;szlig;), they and the next character(!) are not shown. Example: M&amp;uuml;tze -&gt; Mze (right: "Mütze") Fu&amp;szlig;g&amp;auml;nger -&gt; Fuger (right: "Fußgänger") When Becky doesn't understand vowels at all, it should not suppress the following character. A little bit better would be: M&amp;uuml;tze -&gt; M_tze Fu&amp;szlig;g&amp;auml;nger -&gt; Fu_g_nger BTW, less important: It seems to be no difference, when "(text/html) als attachment file" is (un)checked. HTML is always shown as a attachment. BTW 2: I'm sad, that there's no reaction to my help offer/request about German translation... Thanks for help. -davidoff12001 ------------------------------------ </pre> davidoff12001-LWAfsSFWpa4< at >public.gmane.org 2013-05-05T20:29:49 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.becky.users/4632 <pre>&lt;http://www.rimarts.co.jp/becky.htm&gt; Update History (date format: YYYY/MM/DD) Ver.2.65 -&gt; 2.65.01 (2013/5/3) - BUGFIX: Keyboard operation at the left bottom pane of the address book was not working correctly. - BUGFIX: Nickname is not expanded when different address group is set in the folder property from the one in the Mailbox setup. - CardDAV support now includes Windows XP. (Not supported before XP) - "Sync with Portable Media" has an option not to use Windows' task tray, so that Becky! in the portable media do not leave the history of using task tray. </pre> Yeff 2013-05-02T21:29:30 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.becky.users/4628 <pre>The latest help file is now available from http://davidskirk.org/becky/ As before there is a CHM file, a PDF and a website. Changes include: - Expanded documentation on ability to backup and restore messages. - Reworded index information and page titles for folder properties to make them more accessible via help. - Added information for touch feature of Windows 8. - Added information for use of 'Toast' in Windows 8. - Added information on new spacing and font size options for Tree View and List View. - Added information on new CardDAV-supported feature to dynamically access other address books. - Added information on the new delete-marked-messages option for IMAP accounts. - Provided DLL file download for WindowsXP users who want to use the CardDAV feature. - Updated information on use of HTML for default templates and other miscellaneous updates. - Added new information on primary and secondary account book features and how to set a secondary addrbook as primary.

I have like ten I want to combine into one and creating a new group folder inside another and then moving them all a few at a time is dauntingly tedious! Thanks in advance. ------------------------------------ </pre> johngauntner 2013-04-20T23:04:29 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.becky.users/4622 <pre>Hi, I'm nearly a decade long Becky admirer, and I really like this new v2.65 feature : - Font size of tree/list view now can be configured in "General Setup" &gt; "Tree/List" &gt; "Size%". However, changing the Size% changes both the Tree items &amp; the List items. It would be so great to have a TreeSize% &amp; a ListSize% option in there. I just changed the default Size% to 120%, now my list items are nicely readably, but the Tree list has grown way too "deep" so it's scrolling all the time. Thanks for eventually thinking about importing such an options. Cheers, Peter. ------------------------------------ </pre> petermarchal12 2013-04-19T19:12:37 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.becky.users/4621 <pre>On General Setup &gt; Citation &gt; Use special template for forwarding Per the help file this option should be effective with the standard Forward command, however I am finding it only works when Forward is used from a Local Folder. When I am using Remote Mailbox and do a standard Forward of an email on the server, the 'special template for forwarding' does not work properly. It drops the first (template) line into the forwarded email and then nothing, just blank, no matter how I've altered the template. Seemed to me that it worked at one time and then stopped working however my memory is uncertain. Would really like to use this feature. Feedback is appreciated. ------------------ TOPIC: CITATION Use special template for forwarding Check this option if you want to MODIFY this template when you are forwarding message. (Works only with Forward command, not with Redirect or Forward As Attachment commands from Mail Menu.) ------------------ ------------------------------------ </pre> eileenmpls 2013-03-31T00:41:12 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.becky.users/4615 <pre>I do plan to have help file updated within a week to document the new features of 2.65, but if you're using Windows XP and are anxious to use the CardDAV feature that lets you merge/update your Becky address book with your Gmail address book, it doesn't work. You need a special DLL for XP machines, available at http://davidskirk.org/becky/BkDAV-xp.zip Just shut down Becky, copy the new DLL to replace the existing one and restart Becky. It's that easy. This is a temporary fix and will probably be included in future Becky releases, but needed now to use this feature. I discussed this with Carty and the DLL works perfectly. As mentioned, the mechanics of this and other new features should be ready within a week. Thanks for your patience. (You are patient, right?) david ------------------------------------ </pre> david 2013-04-17T22:30:08 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.becky.users/4614 <pre>Ver.2.64.06 -&gt; Ver.2.65 (2013/4/16) - CardDAV is now supported. You can refer and update Gmail's contact from Becky!'s address book. - "Notify" option is added to Query dialog, which notifies the user that either Query is finished or a first item is found when doing Query background. - With Windows8's touchscreen interface, multiple mail items can be highlighted by touching the icon part of the mail list. - Added an option to either move the delete-marked messages (that are deleted on the offline IMAP4 folder) to Trash or permanently delete when the IMAP4 account becomes online. - "Reorganize" will use the delivered date to sort messages when Date header is missing. - Font size of tree/list view now can be configured in "General Setup" &gt; "Tree/List" &gt; "Size%". - BUGFIX: When Compose window is open by "Redirect" command, clicking "Headers" button and OK cleared the From field. - BUGFIX: When pasting long text without return code did not show the scroll bar immediately on Compose window. - BUGFIX: Clearing flags on messages from other IMAP4 client did not sync Becky!'s IMAP4 folder.

Does anyone know of a better solution? Presumably Becky in the Cloud is storing data files in, for example, Dropbox and somehow accessing them from Becky but, presumably, from a PC rather than tablet? The main reason I want to keep using Becky when away is that I can't find an Android app that enables me to create templates to the same extent that Becky does. Thanks for any help. ------------------------------------ </pre> spudsi 2013-04-16T10:44:14 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.becky.users/4611 <pre>Hi, I am trying to get started with Becky in the Cloud, and began using Dropbox, putting my whole Becky folder in that. It works, but every time I send an email these .tml and .tmx files are generated, and while they are only 8 to a few hundred bytes, they will eventually fill up my Dropbox, nor do I know if I can delete them or not. So: 1) does anyone have long-term experience with Becky and Dropbox? 2) Does anyone have a better Becky-in-the-Cloud solution with which they have experience and can recommend? Google? Skydrive?

(in a "Windows Internet Explorer" box). It probably started with one of the latest updates of Becky (I now have v. 2.64.06). Never had this problem before. I reinstalled Becky, but it did not help. Have anyone else experienced this problem, and/or do you know how to solve it. Thanks, Hans L ------------------------------------ </pre> Hans Leander 2013-04-10T13:50:24 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.becky.users/4593 <pre>Hello: My wife is thinking of switching to an iMac. That would mean a lot of changes in the spausal interchange, I am sure, since I have a PC. So, let me ask: does anyone know if it is possible to use Becky with an iMac? Regards, Hans L ------------------------------------ </pre> Hans Leander 2013-04-09T13:45:02 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.becky.users/4590 <pre>Hi All, I recently installed Becky on my new Viao Tap20 running Windows 8 but I cannot get the Japanese names in my address book to display properly. They are all moji-bake, just weird characters. Note this happens no matter what version of Becky I use (J or E) and no matter what my main computer operating language is (J or E). It must be a setting but I cannot figure it out. Thanks for any help you can provide! ------------------------------------ </pre> johngauntner 2013-04-06T07:31:03 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.becky.users/4588 <pre>Hi, I'm not sure that this issue is a setting within Becky. It might be that I inadvertently did something in Windows7 that is causing the problem, but all of a sudden I find that the Becky window is always on top of all other windows. Does anyone have any idea how I can undo this and get the window to sit behind whatever other window I more the focus to? Thanks in advance. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Steve Venti spventi-eTXODgu4jlXDO7Nk1fN4cQ&lt; at &gt;public.gmane.org I would not wish to any of them what I have had to suffer for things that I am not guilty of.

Venti 2013-03-26T01:35:15 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.becky.users/4580 <pre>Another question (I asked in the forum but it's down for some weeks): Some people here still use Becky 2.25 because they love it and this is the "newest" German version. But there are a lot of improvements since then. Also many people would use Becky, but only want software in their native language = German. So an actual Build in German is strongly needed. My questions: - does anybody have the same wish? - is anybody doing a translation? When no: I would offer my help with doing a translation (I already translated other software). - How can this be done? - Who has to be contacted? When it is possible, it would be nice to get the latest language file(s) for building a new version. -davidoff12001 ------------------------------------ </pre> davidoff12001-LWAfsSFWpa4< at >public.gmane.org 2013-03-21T17:07:43 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.becky.users/4579 <pre>Does anybody know, what's happened with the Becky-Forum? -davidoff12001 ------------------------------------ </pre> davidoff12001-LWAfsSFWpa4< at >public.gmane.org 2013-03-21T17:07:32 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.becky.users/4577 <pre>The Helpfile has been updated and is available at http://davidskirk.org/becky/ This includes the two suggestions received last week for 1) attachments to show in index and 2) information on Keywords and Content Blocks. The file has 703 more words than before. Many users may not find keywords or content blocks helpful, but two quick examples of usefulness are - Usingcontent blocks to color message threads (that example came from Jody to my initial query in April, 2010) - Using keywords in rfc822 keyword group to read headers more easily (personal choice, of course.) Reminder: The index only works for CHM files and identifies what pages contain the selected word. The search feature lists the pages and also highlights the word wherever it is used. david ------------------------------------ </pre> david 2013-03-08T18:56:08 http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.mail.becky.users/4566 <pre>Hello: I am wrestling with the problem of switching e-mail host. I have LunarPages now, but, as someone said on the Net, they seem to be the spammers' host of choice. They have been blocked by several Canadian ISPs and by AOL and, occasionally, by Verizon. Too many of my e-mails are not reaching its destination. The problem is about 3-4 months old. LunarPages blames Time Warner Cable (my pipeline to the Net) and Time blames LunarPages. But, if I send my e-mails from a mailbox served by a different host, they go through, which points squarely at LunarPages. So, I wonder is some of you have a reliable and otherwise great host for your own-domain e-mail accounts. (I have several domains.) If so, kindly let me know. (Or "us know", because I am sure I am not alone with problems of this kind.)

Just to exclude Becky or some Becky setting of mine as the culprit, let me ask if anyone else has started getting these error messages lately.
