RITLABS - ( Commercial Trial)
The Bat! gives a fresh air to the emails and is highly customizable allowing to create email templates according to users desire.
The Bat! is an great e-mail client with all the functions needed by an informed user. It allows to work without local mail server. The Bat! does all that an e-mail client is expected to do.
The Bat! allows, like most modern clients, colorize emails to differentiate or prioritize, archive a series of emails in a folder or automatically classify emails that come from one of the contacts. It includes, in addition, its own spell checker.
The software offers the possibility to create templates and configure the Inbox Analyzer to automatically respond to certain emails based on determined criteria.
Incidentally, The Bat! allows import and export formats of the main mail software competitor.
# 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.
- 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.

- If an IMAP filter has multiple actions, sometimes only some of them are executed.
- Minor speed increase when working with internal hash structures.

- Filtering on IMAP stops with an Access Violation error while setting color groups.
- Drop-downs on the main toolbar have areas with no reaction to mouse clicks.
- Editor text color and search highlight text colors were hardcoded as "black" and "white", while they had to take colors from Windows system colors (Themes).
- There was an error when trying to run The Bat! while another The Bat! process didn't exit for some reason.
