To whom it may concern: In response to your E-Mail of 16 Mar 94. The friend-of-a-friend is wrong. The user dialing into a QM Server would have access only to QuickMail and its assocaited files. No more, no less. Your friend-of-a-friend would be correct if they were dialing in with…
Of course, I suspected that, too – but they weren't trying to sell anything, they just recommended to keep that machine off the net. It made no sense to me, and it irked me to the point of wanting to track down the friend-of-a-friend myself. They didn't hire these people,…
Was the "local network security firm" perhaps trying to sell a security product of some sort? Do they even know what QuickMail is? We've used QM's gateways for a couple of years, and although we're not particularly concerned about security here (most of our users have no passwords either), I…
QM Security Hole?
Message #145801
I run Quickmail on my Mac to connect to another company that I work with. I'm a remote site. The other day, I was talking with another company who was about to install Quickmail for conversing with their remote employees, too. I mentioned that we could connect to each other,…

Sharing modem?
Message #137592
Syndesis Corp: Hopefully the future will bring a standard interface to the way that applications will handle modem communications. Apple's Communications Toolbox was a step in the right direction, but has not been widely accepted (even by Apple themselves). QuickMail uses the CommToolbox to try to make a standard modem…

QM / Remote sharing?
Message #111107
Syndesis Corp: I would hope that they get some things settled internally. It stikes me as kind of funny that ARA didn't use the Comm Toolbox. Ted Smith CE Software, Inc. Technical Support Rep.

QM / Remote sharing?
Message #110990
The Syndesis Corp: QuickMail would work fine with ARA if ARA was compatible with the Communications Toolbox from Apple. As you are probaly aware, ARA does not use the Communications Toolbox for it's modem communications. In the future the problem will probably be resolved, but for right now there is…
QK lost keys,files?
Message #110416
1. When I start up my SE (sys 6.0.7) I get a long pause with a dialog box saying "QuicKeys looking for lost or missing file keys" or something like that, and try as I might I can't get rid of it. I've checked and everything seems to be filed…

QK 2.1.1 flaky operation
Message #110410
I too was a charter memember and whenever I log in I find that I am the gramps of the group. Average age 16 and less in many forums. On the other hand age doesn't count when it comes to popularity. And CE doesn't seem to support uploads in CIS…

Choosy
Message #110405
I _do_ have the latest versions of QuicKeys and Choosy. Does that mean typing an asterisk into the "zone" text box will work? The author of Choosy apparently assumed that any printer connected via AppleTalk is on a network and therefore has a zone. The fact is, however, that a…
Disapp Sequence
Message #110401
This has happened before to me with QK but never so dranmatically. All of a sudden ALL of my sequences stopped working. When I looked in the Sequence Folder (in System Fodler:preference:quickeys), the folder was empty. Any ideas ? I am using system 7 with 4 megs ram a IISI…
Quickeys 2.1 bug
Message #110400
There seems to be a bug in Quickeys 2.1 that causes an app to crash when it calls StandardGetFile or CustomGetFile with a FileFilterProc. Has this been noticed before? If so, is there a fix? Thanks, Larry

QK 2.1.1 flaky operation
Message #110397
I use AOL a lot and really like it. You should give a re-think as it continues to grow.
Create text file w/QK?
Message #110393
I'd like to create a QK that will take the current selection and paste it into a standalone text file. Ideally, the QK wouldn't need another program (such as a word processor or DA) to create the text file. Any suggestions? Best, Dan

QK and Vantage
Message #110378
Ted, I'm running QK 2.1.1 and Vantage 1.6. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong. I want to create a QK that opens Vantage, selects "lower case", then "capitalize words", closes Vantage, activates the top window, and pastes into the selection. I want this to work regardless of window positions, so I…
QK2,Location ext
Message #110374
I'm running QK2.1.1 w/CETBX 1.6.5 and cannot get the _Location_ extension to "take". Any ideas? FWIW: Quickeys is a great product and I recommend it to clients often. Thanks RW P.S. I opened QK2 while I running the above session in the backgroung and had a screen freeze. P.S.S. After…

MockWrite
Message #110343
What happens with MockWrite in 32-bit mode? I also have used MockWrite for years and would not like to lose it; rebooting in 24-bit mode after moving to 32-bit would be too much.. By the way, I use it all the time in 24-bit mode with VM and have had…
Did you see the message about a conflict between QM and AS print spooler 3.0? That seems to be the source of some of our problems. Regards, GLF
QuickMail Tech Question
Message #110337
Are there any CE programmers I could directly address an occasional E-mail question to? Such as: Does QuickMail use AppleTalk Transaction Protocol, ADSP, or ??? Does the QM server use completion routines called via interrupt or poll for completion? If QM uses completion routines, how does it handle opening files…
#TAA report of my server
Message #110335
Ted, I sent you by CI$Mail a TAA dump of my buggy server. To recap, the problems it has are: 1) Files that have been read and deleted are not removed from the recipient's folder on the mail server. Out current solution is to delete them manually every day with…
QM Forms ??
Message #110334
I just changed the priority labels in my MailCenter; now I'm looking for a way to make a certain priority the default one that appears in a form. When I edit the form in QM Forms 2.5, I can't touch the header area. The form defaults to priority item #4,…

QuickMail 2.5 & PB170
Message #110298
Scot, I think you might be experiencing the problem with the floppy drive on the PB. I've heard that there's a glitch that causes the PB's not to be able to read some mass produced disks. I've got many different sets of install disks so I was eventually able to…

QM2.5/Plus/Radius
Message #110297
Kelly, I hate to say this but I think the problem might be your accelerator. We tested a couple of 030 (but not 020) accels on mac plusses and found that they worked with neither QM or AppleShare. Both Novy and Total Systems both finally admitted that printer port didn't…
