Or was it the Dman? Wasn't that in Exim, or procmail? Seems like a confirmation could be set up based on the same kind of parameters. Since I just barely have Mutt and Exim working, I'll bow to your expertise on this. ;) -- gt [EMAIL PROTECTED] If someone tells you--- I have a sense of humor, but that's not funny. ---they don't. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

The ideology that there must be something wrong with you if you don't make enough money to, not only feed yourself and your family, but also purchase a large house on a large tract of land and at least two cars is almost exclusively American. Of course, like most things American, it's been spreading like a pleague. Not to say that Europe is a utopian society and the US should emulate it to the farthest extent possible, but the current trend of being as exactly oposite as possible is counter-productive, IMHO. There definitely are some things to be learned from the European model. why do I get the impression that some people on this list forget that Debian is an international project ?

I'm aware that many, if not most, people on d-u aren't from the US, but I had a sudden urge to rant and, since I live in the US, had no choice but to do so from a USian perspective ;-) As you say, there are many individual European nations and they're not all the same but, compared the the US, they're more alike than they are different, hence my use of the term Europen model.
