Mail ticker is still out of order in beta 5.012.2    
Generally, I don't use the Mail Ticker - just checked it out and it's working for me on 5.0.12.9.

BTW, plenty of action happening on the beta front - testers are having a gala time. Have a rocking weekend everybody.

I also just downloaded beta 5.0.12.9 but mail ticker still not working at all...   :(
 
Just got 2 things to add:-

01.) It works for me provided the 'Display MailTicker ™' is set to 'Automatically' - it stops working if set to 'Always' or 'Hide.'

02.) Have been able to test it only on 'Windows Se7en' - not on other platforms.


cheers,

Oh my God, what have they done to the Redirect feature? :( Such an unnecessary change :(

Yes, absolutely agreed and I hope they restore the 'Redirect' function to the V4 status quo - more on this at the following posts:-

Just re-checked that issue on the beta release (in my signature) and it's not only resolved but also improved over the 'Redirect' function prevailing in V4 - check the following post:-

With the release of the latest beta build, the 'Mail Ticker' works even when set to 'Always.'

Sure not - they are busy now to develop fu...ng Aps for the Iphone. Did you read the news on the main page? This is really a punch to the face for all TB buyers.

Instead of an application to park my car (is this a joke? :cry: ), I want to park my mails with a professional software and see the ticker again on automatically setting.

Suggest you perform a fresh install of your copy of The Bat! - the Mail Ticker issue was fixed . . . . . . . a few (beta) builds ago - much before the 5.0.12.14 that you're running.

Hope its starts working for you, too.

about Redirect, new version 5.0.14 introduces "Edit as new" feature, check it.
 
Bloody hell! Do they even test new versions before releasing them?
Once again, I found a severe bug just seconds after installing the latest version (v5.0.14):
When there's two mails in the 'Inbox', and I delete one of them, the remaining mail suddenly gets a fake duplicate.
If I change to the 'Trash' folder, then back to the 'Inbox' again, then the fake duplicate is gone.
But if I try to delete the fake duplicate instead, the real mail gets deleted as well.
The bug can't be reproduced by moving a deleted mail from the 'Trash' back to the 'Inbox', then trying to delete it once again.. It only happens with newly received mails.
I've reported it to the bug tracker.

Yeah, it's truly been enhanced - and in as much as I had initially criticized the degraded features of the 'Redirect' function, I'd also been quick to appreciate the restoration to full functionality:-  :)

I can confirm that - in the last 24 hrs; it's happened thrice on Windows Se7en.

So I take it that this iteration of TB is still not up to the mark then is it?  For now, working with Version 4.2.44.2 without the previously described grief (but also concerns about the longevity of this software).  Would love to be convinced that it is time to try an upgrade again.

Was having something similarly weird with the 5.12 version which I subtly described in an above post as below:
" Email headers disappear and reappear - I'm not joking. Randomly and completely unpredictably, when you click on an email header to open (say, in the Inbox) the email opens, displays, then AUTOMATICALLY the next email in line (can't be sure whether the one immediately above or below) opens up and the one you opened closes. Then, when you go to Inbox, that email's header has also VANISHED. I then click on some other mailbox (lets say Outbox) and then back to Inbox and voila! - that header is back. NEW in Version 5. WTF ??????? "
 
Is Search broken in 5.0.14???

Main window, I type something in the Search field that should display results, but it shows nothing, just a blank space. Sometimes it does show results, but if I switch folders, the results disappear.

I'm this close to move back to version 4 :(
 
Ok, some feedback.

Downloaded 5.0.14.2 (beta).  Its basically a thebat.exe file only which I plonked onto the desktop and ran it for the heck of it.  Over the last few hours so far has NOT bungled up.  I'm not holding my breath however but maybe ??? light at the end of the tunnel.

Can I ask, where can I download last beta version? Thank You.

You've got PM - it's 5.0.16, which is not a beta (in the true sense of the word.)

Feedback:

So far 5.0.14.2 is better in that it spit out an "Access Violation at address xxxxx in module thebat.exe.......... " just ONCE.  We'll see. Have not updated to 5.0.16 not sure if it'll spell disaster or not
 
I am using 5.0.18.1 and have had NO access violations and almost no slowdowns - and when it does slow down or appear to "hang" it is on a message with a gazillion graphics links in it. Something to be fixed at some point but NOT a show stopper (and I am a heavy graphics user)
 
Well, the saga continues (version 5.0.18 - release NOT beta, installed FRESH after uninstalling the prior version, Windows 7):  

Sporadically (not everytime) when I open an email, it opens normally then abruptly closes BY ITSELF and the entire email header disappears from the Inbox.  When I click on another mailbox (say, Sent) and then back to Inbox, the email reappears - WTF????  I have this entire process captured on video file using Camtasia - it's a big file (25MB) so I've posted it on Hotfile in case anyone's interested in viewing:

http://hotfile.com/dl/123394869/8fff56e/The_Bat_Error.avi.html

I've also put it as a support ticket, lets see what we hear.
