What about this one line command?

[Select]
DIR /AD/B/S | SORT /R > EMPTIES.BAT

No GUI though!

Best E-mail Client / How to install a local IMAP server on Windows XP Pro?
« on: July 29, 2010, 09:58 PM »
Dear DC Forum Members,

I am an intermediate computer user. Currently I have the following e-mail setup at the office:

current_setup.gif

I use Thunderbird as my e-mail client. Today I see that Thunderbird cannot handle my large e-mail database (8 GB). To solve the problem a friend suggests that I setup a local IMAP server and use Thunderbird as an IMAP client. The scenario is as follows:

local_imap.gif

For the incoming mail:
  • The local IMAP server pulls e-mails via POP3 server
  • I access the e-mail on the local IMAP server using Thunderbird as IMAP client

For outgoing mail:
  • I compose e-mail on Thunderbird
  • I sent the mail through SMTP server via local IMAP server

My question are:
1. Is that IMAP setup possible on Windows XP Pro?
2. What IMAP server can be easily set up on Windows XP Pro that can handle such scenario?

Well, that's my questions. Thanks in advance!  :)

The Getting Organized Experiment of 2009 / Re: Request: Please share your prioritization methods here
« on: June 18, 2010, 01:55 AM »
3. Then, I use a special formula to calculate the urgency of tasks (processed in IQ) depending on their :

  • duedates
  • Planned Start and End date
  • % Done
  • time needed to complete them
  • numeric priority (1-9)

Of course the formula takes into account whether the task-project is late or not, etc.
-Armando (June 13, 2010, 12:47 PM)

Would you mind showing me the formula? Can it be implemented in spreadsheet (Excel or Calc)? TIA.

General Software Discussion / Re: If you think OpenOffice is a competitor to MS Office 2010, think again
« on: June 17, 2010, 04:50 AM »
That said, if you're an MS Office 2007 user, will you be upgrading to the 2010 (twenty-ten!) version? And if so, which features are compelling enough to do so?
-zridling (June 16, 2010, 05:46 AM)

I am currently using MSO 2007 at the office. The possibility of upgrading is so thin. Most of my co worker use OpenOffice.org.

Circle Dock / Re: We need to make a present for Markham for updating CircleDock
« on: October 30, 2009, 03:48 AM »
It's interesting to note that whilst there are numerous "Dock" programs available, only two appear to have been around for a while and are under active development: "Object Dock" and "Circle Dock". So spread the word people - "Circle Dock IS the premier dock for Windows and it's free and open-source!"
-Markham (October 30, 2009, 02:58 AM)

I have voted it as the best application dock.  :)

There was a cool fast free Dos editor called BlackBeard. The thing that was unique about it at the time was it did column cut & paste.
-MilesAhead (April 27, 2009, 08:45 PM)

I am searching for BlackBeard and found this interesting page:

I frequently use Editor² to replace MS Windows' Notepad.

I voted for Google "define". The fact is I use Google "define" more often than Dictionary.com. Why? I think Google is faster.
