Hello, I must have missed the previous threads :x. But I was wondering if someone could email me back the frist thread (you don't need to send to the mailing list ;)). I might be able to help with writing some newbie howto's :). Scott J. Vaverchak [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: newbie doc volunteers
Hi Will, I'm interested. I've been reading the docbook documentation and putting together an account of my experiences getting exim, fetchmail, and mutt to play on my system. I signed up for a sourcefoge account, I just haven't joined up yet. I'll get back to you (maybe off list) when I get it together. Hopefully that won't bee too far off, but I'm prepping for an interview in the next week, so I may not devote much time to it until after that. Cheers. -- Mark Wagnon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
