Amongst all the improvements the most visually outstanding is the
new look user interface. The opportunity to replace the default
interface glyphs with those of your own preference has been
expanded: you can now use transparent images and new formats of
graphic files. You will soon be able to download alternative
glyph sets from our website www.ritlabs.com.

The Sorting Office has a new flow chart style front end, which
really simplifies the management of message filtering.

The Bat! 3.0 includes new Virtual Folder technology to help you
organize your email even more effectively. This allows you to
create lists of messages gathered as a cross-section from anywhere
in your email database using a comprehensive filtering system.

The new Mail Chat feature allows you to communicate with your
correspondents instantaneously using regular e-mail messages as an
underlying technology. The strong point of this approach is that
unlike other instant messenger programs, The Bat! mail chat
doesn't compromise the safety of your computer. Communication
takes place through your trusted mail servers, and in addition the
chat messages are checked by Anti-Virus and Anti-Spam filters.

The Bat! 3.0 has a Bayesian filtering plug-in as a part of the
default installation. Bayesian filtering is one of the most
effective spam detection algorithms available nowadays.
The BayesIt! plug-in also detects URLs used in spam messages,
making filtering even more efficient. First, you must train the
plug-in by feeding it spam and non-spam messages, then it will do
the job for you.

You are now able to connect to Microsoft Exchange Servers using
The Bat! via native MAPI protocol to fetch or send messages.

The Bat! 3.0 now has a new MSI-based digitally signed installation
package. You can verify the digital signature before installing
The Bat! to make sure that the program comes from a trusted source
and hasn't been modified in transit. System administrators now
have
the ability to deploy The Bat! easily throughout their networks.
