Hi all,
With help / advice from the good folk here I now have mums replacement
phone up and running and think I have worked my way around most of it
since restoring her iPhone5S to it (like email password).
I have found and will print out a couple of pages of button push combos
for her and the rest should be reasonably familiar to her.
One thing though, because she's a bit mutton I've set the ringer volume
on max (to start with) but when I ring the phone it starts off loud then
goes much quieter?
I've also noted it wakes up when picked up (good thing) but I was wonder
what the panel think about enabling the face recognition for unlock? I
mean, does it generally work reliably?
Any other tips, ticks or 'good' settings I could set / check would be appreciated.
Cheers, T i m
p.s. I seem to be having a right issue with posting messages from TB to
ES. Often hanging on send or coming up with with another 'can't send'
type message. Save as draft and re-open > send sometimes works. Closing
TB, re opening sending draft sometimes works, sometimes the message disappears. ;-(
I have googled to /temp folder containing more than 999999 messages or
some such but I can't find the /temp folder (W10)?

unfortunately, its problems affects others.
Current versions have some minor bugs like every software. Apple Mail is
not an option/alternative because it has just kindergarten level.

I have no problem with the email side of TB (over several / different
account types) it's just my use of the newsserver component on Eternal September that is highly intermittent.
Like, earlier I tried all the things I normally do (save as draft, re
open > send, close TB and re-open etc) and nothing worked, then the
message vanished. ;-(
However, the last batch of message have sent ok?
What happens when it goes wrong is I first get this:
https://ibb.co/5xnFBRh
And then after a delay (or if I cancel and try again) I get this:
https://ibb.co/nLB63BP
So I was wondering if there was another low cost newsserver that maybe
had a free trial so I could see if it was the server or TB (I'm going on
TB ATM as I think the first issue is local)?

The ES/TB bug has been around for a long time, I just move on to the
next post in the thread and then try resending, usually works.
The pain
is remembering to close two sets of error messages first.

No, as I found when I first experienced / Googled the problem. One of
the most common solutions was that a tmp folder hits an upper limit of
files and needs manual purging but I think that was causing a complete failure not a random one? I couldn't even find the folder specified so

Yes, especially so when it has been both fast and rock solid X platform
(I have used it on OSX but mostly Windows and Linux).
So far <touching wood> it hasn't had an issue sending though
individual.net but I have seen a lack response when say checking for new messages once. This typically seems to happen if I've left TB in the background for a while then gone back to it?

Setting for the polling under account settings for your news server.
I
tested after your posting.
Polling works perfectly when left open alone.
There were quite a lot of news postings after a while. On Solani as well
as on Eternal-September.
The polling is set to happen here every 5 minutes and that is exactly
what happens.
If you think an antivirus-protection is necessary
use the Defender of
Windows.
Never work as admin with elevated rights.
That is what I even implement on my Macs and on my Linux-machines. Admin
only to administer the system.
I really can't work that way on my own machines (I really don't even
like it on Linux, 'enjoying' those single user installs where you are
God all the time).
Been doing that for a good few years now ... ?

Since I left Windows in 2006 in my private domain.
Working as admin creates a slight Kamikaze-feeling. Even on Linux.

Your choice. Your system. Your data. Your disaster recovery.
Those around me insisting on such a philosophy cannot count on my
