The following command explained it quite clearly for me when I was writing the POP part of my Postal package. zless /usr/doc/doc-rfc/all-included-rfcs/rfc1939.txt.gz If you have any further questions after running that command feel free to ask me via private email. -- http://www.coker.com.au/bonnie++/ Bonnie++ hard drive benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/postal/ Postal SMTP/POP benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/projects.html Projects I am working on http://www.coker.com.au/~russell/ My home page -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: Form to File Solution
Yes there is an easier way, php! You can use the functions fopen(), fclose(), fputs(). You can use php 3.0.9+, http://www.php.net/manual/browse-errata.php?let=f. PHP is also alot cheaper an easier than Cold Fusion. :-) Thank You, Trent [EMAIL PROTECTED] If the future didn't exist, somebody would have invented it. ridgey wrote: > > Hi guys. > >We are hosting a great deal of sites that are using forms for inquiries > and orders.

Re: Talking to a POP server.
You've got one major issue there, yes. ;^) Seriously though, a number of these packages already exist. Search freshmeat or your local /var/state/apt/lists/*.

Talking to a POP server.
Hello once again list. I am currently writing an online mail service similar to hotmail or yahoo mail. I have all the elements in place except for one. In C, how do I talk to a POP server? Is there something like 'sendmail' that I use to easily send all my mail messages, but for receiving mail from a pop server? Thanks in advance!

A large ISP ( >500,000 customers) would need to dedicate at least one skilled administrator if they wanted to handle such trivial complaints. This would cost them >$100,000 per annum. The fact that someone is scanning your FTP server is not worth $100K to a large ISP. A small ISP knows that the type of people who scan for security holes will spend lots of time online and make them good amounts of money. Protecting the privacy of such customers makes economic sense. The only way an ISP will take up this issue is if you threaten legal action or writing letters to newspapers complaining (threatening bad PR). Of course if you do this then they will be annoyed and probably won't be as helpful as they might be if something serious happens... Put up a banner saying "welcome user from machine-name" where machine-name is the reverse DNS lookup and tell them that all connections are logged. It may scare some of the weenies. -- http://www.coker.com.au/bonnie++/ Bonnie++ hard drive benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/postal/ Postal SMTP/POP benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/projects.html Projects I am working on http://www.coker.com.au/~russell/ My home page -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Mail tool for X
Does anybody know a mail tool for X, for pick up the mail from the mail server ? Like the one in Netscape but another one ? Under Debian Potato, of course. Thank you, Adrian Nims -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
