[tdf-discuss] LibOCon date

2012-05-03 Thread Florian Effenberger

Hello,

since I received some inquiries about that via e-mail, here's a quick 
pre-notification:


The public part of the LibreOffice Conference 2012 will take place

October 17th to 19th, 2012
in Berlin, Germany

More details on the schedule, the call for papers, the venue, sponsorhip 
options and additional events will be published soon in an official 
announcement. In addition to the three public days, one internal day for 
community meetings will be scheduled as well, most likely on October 20th.


Florian

That sounds as if You are an expert on how to remote control an
arbitrary mail client. Is there a standardized api for that?

To solve Your problem of having records: how about putting yourself into
BCC? This is what basically does your mail client for the local copy.
