Re: [expert] Linux IMAP & PGP capable clients that interoperatewith Courier-IMAP
All, As an update to this, there is an option to enable bug workarounds (thanks to an offline message) for courier IMAP that seems to have solved my problems except WRT xfmail.

[expert] Linux IMAP & PGP capable clients that interoperate with Courier-IMAP
All, I recently install Mandrake 7.2 and am running into the most vexing of problems: To Date, I cannot locate a single GRAPHICAL MUA that inter operates with an OpenBSD install of Courier-IMAP. Here's the run down of issues: Netscape 4 and 6: full inter operation for a few minutes(or two refreshes) and then issues error message saying that "Error in IMAP command received by server" XFMail: multiple errors about headers and invalid mail box names. Cannot copy items to IMAP folder. Cannot send items. Trade client: won't compile with or without SSL and LDAP regardless of installed libs. I'll be looking closer at this at a later time. Star Office: Mostly works but will not save messages to IMAP server. This is the most useful MUA so far KMAIL and APPLIX Mail: no IMAP support Pine and Mutt : Work just dandy. Pity about the UI's, features, and unneeded dogma though. Ideally, I'd like PGP clear text support as opposed to PGP/MIME (lets not get in a flame war over this!) and s/mime support However, I can write a wrapper script for PGP 7.0.1, gpg and/or openssl -smime as needed. what's imperative is that the client NOT be in any way alpha or beta quality. However, I'm quite dyslexic and find text clients too difficult to use for daily tasks. Note 1: I'm asking on expert as I'm looking the experiences of a more informed user base. Note 2: I'm really sorry if I've gotten the line length wrong. I'm still QUITE new to end user (as exposed to server side) use of Linux/BSD. Note 3: The IMAP server is working quite well with Win32 and Apple 8 clients. Fetch and sync scripts properly work via pearl and c to syc with other Cyrus, Courier, MDeamon, and Exchange clients. Yours, Sam Stern Bethesda, MD, USA PGP Keys on the servers -- please search via email address Thawte S/Mime certificates via direct request.

Re: [expert] menudrake
There have been previous postings to this list regarding menudrake problems. Menudrake IS to make changes to your menu. I can only speak for KDE, which is what I run, but I have found that after making changes with MenuDrake, I need to log out and log back in again for the changes to take place, suggesting (of course) that KDE only reads your personal menu modifications at login time, because presumably there is no hook in KDE that allows an app such as MenuDrake to tell it to reread the menu. It would be nice if that were added (hint, hint). You should make sure you are clicking the "save" button before exiting MenuDrake. In theory it should be telling you if you have unsaved changes when you exit, though. As far as I know, there is no command line utilty for editing the KDE menus. The menus are containing in a dir under /etc for systemwide menus, and your person menu exists as modificatons to the system-wide menu stored under your home dir (~/.menu). This is one area that I actually think windows did a better job. I like the way windows keeps its start menu stuff as a folder tree with shortcuts to the programs; it would be nice if KDE organized the menu in a similar fashion, with folders representing menu/submenu items, and each program in the menu tree could be either a symlink to the executable, or a text file (as they are now) containing the info. KDE could provide an item on the K menu or a utility to create a blank menu pointer item, which could then be edited from the properties to setup the icon, display name, target link, etc, just as you do in MenuDrake. That would allow you to rearrange the menu just as you do in Windows by dragging folders and files around, and if the K menu read that tree each time you clicked it, changes would happen immediately.

[expert] ipop3d hanging on 7.2
Has anybody else had issues with ipop3d? Sending the command "LIST 1" to ipop3d on my installation is causing it to hang. Here's a sample session: [root@server /]# ipop3d +OK POP3 server.wavicle.org v7.64 server ready user joe +OK User name accepted, password please pass +OK Mailbox open, 1 messages LIST +OK Mailbox scan listing follows 1 825 . LIST 1 +OK It hangs at the "+OK", never putting in a newline. The expected response was "+OK 1 825". Interestingly, if I give the command "RETR 1" it successfully retrieves the message. This issue is preventing Eudora from fetching mail, and it just seems like there should be something obvious I'm missing. I tried the same thing on my trusty qmail installation and had no problems (so I don't think I mis-formatted anything... I certainly don't think Eudora mis-formatted it). I've reproduced this problem on two installs of LM 7.2, one is my "live" system and another test system that is pretty clean. I was going to just grab the source rpm tonight and see if I couldn't find the problem the hard way, but I'm hopeful somebody else recognizes this one so I won't have to. Perhaps somebody can recommend a different pop server than the imap one? (qpopper?)

Re: [Re: [expert] bah humbug!]
" Naah! Just pulling your leg:o) Horrible things can happen during an install, just try again -I found out that the quality of bootable installation cd"s and their content tend to differ too. Actually if you want to complain do so! and if you've questions be more specific. I've posted each problem seperately. People gave be LINKS for the fonttastic/WP8 but neither link helped. The LM link for fonttastic said to copy the rpms fron the install CD but it doesn't exist on the install CD. WP8 link doesn't cure my directory not found issue. No one had a good answer for 'swapper not syncing', no one seems to know WHICH FILE tells Linux to look for the modem on the USB port instead of the serial port. ;-( Linux knows the 2 USB ports are there, but doesn't look at them for a modem, I can pick serial, ISDN etc, but not USB.

Take a look in /etc/X11/kdm. This directory contains the scripts that kdm uses to launch the various window management solutions. Check to see what is going on in those scripts, if they exist, if they are linked properly. Since KDE works, check them versus the content of the KDE script. Adding XFCE should be as simple as copying the format of the KDE script and setting the permissions properly in that directory. And last but not least, check to make sure that Gnome, enlightenment, fvwm, or whatever else is properly installed. -- Matthew Micene A host is a host from coast to coast, Systems Development Managerand no one will talk to a host too close Express Search Inc.Unless the host that isn't close www.ExpressSearch.com is busy, hung or dead

Re: [Re: [expert] bah humbug!]
Thanks, I'll do that for all 10 of my Mandrake CDs. 7.2(4), 7.2-update(1), 6.5(3?), 6.x Utilities(2). And I'll check that RPM link(s). some things that might help: put in a cd that has rpms. I'm assuming that the RPMS are in a directory named RPMS. substitute the correct directory in the following. From your home directory, enter rpm -qlip /mnt/cdrom/RPMS/*.rpm >cdxfiles.txt (where cdx is cd1, cd2, etc). You now have 4 files with the description of every RPM on the 4 cdroms that came with your kit. you can run emacs, jmacs (if you installed joe.rpm), or other text editors to locate RPMs that contain files you are interested in. much documentation can be found in /usr/share/doc or /usr/doc, depending upon your packaged version of linux. another site is http://www.rpmfind.net I have found it to be very useful. Also, the command apropos textlookingfor will give you leads on possible man pages. locate filenamefragment will find files or directories that match. All of Linux is done with volunteer help. All of it. Over 1000 programmers have contributed at last note. All of them have made at least one mistake.

[expert] menudrake
Hello Please excuse the following stupid question, but can anyone tell me what Menudrake is really for ? I assumed it was for adding and editing menu items. Try as I may ,I cannot get it to change anything. Installed a program the other day (ripperX), and it would not save any changes I had added to the menu to include the new program. I could see the change in Menudrake, but not in the menu. Tried restarting X, rebooting also. Running KDE 2.0 , Mandrake 7.2. Is there any way to edit the menu from the command line? Thanks in advance. Jim
