Re: gotmail oddity

2009-07-24 Thread Jude DaShiell
Okay, I checked the http://gotmail.sf.net page and found out gotmail is no 
longer supported and Microsoft changing their login page broke the 
package.  So this is now a broken package and probably rightly in the 
orphan category too.  Thanks much for assistance and interest provided.

What would be doing that?  So far as I can tell, there is a connect that

Re: gotmail oddity

2009-07-24 Thread Jude DaShiell
How would information like this be put into a .gotmailrc configuration 
file?  The hotmail account I have is on msn.com and I know of a way to 
include port information like domain=msn.com:995 but I don't know that 
that will even work because it's documented nowhere in debian's gotmail 
package distribution.  How to specify the ssl and other required 
parameters isn't described either but unless Microsoft changed protocol 
requirements gotmail should be taking care of these automatically.  I 
could use domain=pop3.live.com:995 but don't know how my msn address would 
then be accommodated.

According  to the package description:

" Although the team behind Gotmail tries to keep it working, every few
 months Hotmail makes changes which break this until they have time to
  fix it. Have a backup plan for email access in case that happens."
