Re: moving mail system from one ISP to another

I don't know anything about lotus but ... do you know if it supports imap?
There is an imap copy program that copies mail "folders" from one imap
server to another.  This may do what you want:

I haven't used it but I might need it in a few months, which is why it's
in my bookmarks.  If you try it please let me know if it worked. ;-)  Note
that I've seen other, similar programs.

Re: IMAP aware biff

2000-10-12 Thread Kevin Conover

how about using fetchmail with -c?  From the man page:

  -c, --check
  Return  a  status code to indicate whether there is
  mail waiting, without actually fetching or deleting
  mail (see EXIT CODES below).  This option turns off
  daemon mode (in which it  would  be  useless).   It
  doesn't  play  well with queries to multiple sites,
  and doesn't work with ETRN.  It will return a false
  positive  if  you  leave read but undeleted mail in
  your server mailbox and your fetch  protocol  can't
  tell  kept  messages  from new ones.  This means it
  will work with IMAP, not work with  POP2,  and  may
  occasionally flake out under POP3.

so run something in the background that sleeps for a while, runs this,
checks the exit code, and echo's if necessary.

Re: VPN recomendations

Hi Kim,

there's an article at unixreview on vtun for virtual tunnels.  There's a
vtun package in unstable. I haven't used it.  Will this do what you want?
