Yes, you can insert headers before you send the message, but the SMTP server which receives the message for local delivery always has the final word. In this case pigeon.gentoo.org has added its headers to the "proof of concept" message and we can see that the mail "from [EMAIL PROTECTED]" was actually sent from elsewhere. Glad to hear you didn't mind, Daniel. Yes, you traced me correctly. And as Rob already noticed, that could be circumvented by spoofing the header a little more. Also you were correct to notice, that the receiving server has the last word - however many servers today do -not- perform reverse DNS lookups. You can basically put into the EHLO message whatever you want and the receiving server will buy it. So with some effort we could make it look as if the message was actually received from fg-out-1718.google.com. At least as long as pidgeon.gentoo.org doesn't do reverse DNS lookups, which frankly I didn't check. :) --Paul -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list

I'd support a ban in either that case (you pretending to be more than one poster) or the other (another poster pretending to be you). But in neither case do the signatures give us any more information than we would otherwise have had about whether there's an imposter or not. -- »Q« Kleeneness is next to Gödelness. -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list

Yes. You need to compile the drivers for your hard disc, hard disc controller and root filesystem into the kernel, not as modules. Otherwise the kernel can't access the hardware to load the drivers it needs. HTH... Dirk signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

[gentoo-user] Wireless problem
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi! I have a wireless problem. I bought yesterday a Zyxel G202 USB stick and I attack it of my workstation. This hardware is supported from zd1211rw driver. I set all parameters of my network and I started it. It works fine, pretty signal quality, good speed, etc. After some "quiet" time, from my network monitor I noticed a lost in the connection. Now, if I restart the connection it works fine, but after a X time it disconnects again. I don't find any message on dmesg or /var/log/messages and for that reason I have no idea how I can solve the problem. I think it is something correlates with energy management. Any idea?

[gentoo-user] Firefox lock me out of my X session and X get 100% cpu usage
Hi guys, I'm having a weird problem here. I do have an amd64 install of gentoo with KDE 4. Well my problem is that sometimes (once or more per day) when using Firefox I do click in some link or try to scroll down/up the scrollbar my system freezes. When this happen I have to remotely login via ssh and do 'kill -9 X' which in this case is consuming around 100% of cpu usage. I've already updated both kde and firefox and even tried to disable/enable render acceleration on xorg but nothing seems to help. I'm using Xinerama (nvidia + sis video boards) but this is a old install (around 1 year) and my problem just started after I've migrated to kde4. Do somebody have any clue?

[gentoo-user] K3b complains about my locale
When I crank up K3b, it complains about my setup, with the message "System locale charset is ANSI_X3.4-1968 Your system's locale charset (i.e. the charset used to encode filenames) is set to ANSI_X3.4-1968. It is highly unlikely that this has been done intentionally. Most likely the locale is not set at all. An invalid setting will result in problems when creating data projects. Solution: To properly set the locale charset make sure the LC_* environment variables are set. Normally the distribution setup tools take care of this." It is correct that this is not intentional (it does seem antique). I have configured .mybashrc to set my LANG to "en_US", but nothing beyond that. What "distribution setup tools" is it referring to, so that I can correct this on gentoo? ++ kevin
[gentoo-user] Message bus mis-configured
When I use some KDE tools, most recently Konqueror, I get symptoms of a mis-configuration which I think is dbus-related. I've never fooled with it as far as I can remember, and I know nothing about it. So I'm hoping there's an easy cure. The recent thing: opening a Konqeror windows for a freshly-mounted CDROM on a freshly-rebooted system: a dialog box claiming: "A security policy in place prevents this sender from sending this message to this recipient, see message bus configuration file (rejected message had interface "org.freedesktop.Hal.Device.Volume" member "Mount" error name "(unset)" destination "org.freedesktop.Hal") Any ideas? ++ kevin

[gentoo-user] Cups 1.3.7 retards
Hi, since an upgrade to CUPS 1.3.7, on a large amount of print jobs, the printer pauses after every three pages. I detected that the backend for each job gets started every 5 seconds: # grep Started /var/log/cups/error_log I [27/May/2008:18:25:10 +0200] [Job 51243] Started backend ... I [27/May/2008:18:25:15 +0200] [Job 51244] Started backend ... I [27/May/2008:18:25:20 +0200] [Job 51245] Started backend ... I [27/May/2008:18:25:25 +0200] [Job 51246] Started backend ... ... I am sure the job does not take the full 5 seconds to be sent. I cannot find the configuration parameter where this interval could be shortened. Could anyone give me a hint?

[gentoo-user] hardware autodetection at boot
Hello How can I force Gentoo to detect hardware at boot time. Is it enough to compile the kernel with "automatic module loading" option ? or should I install additional tools e.g. kudzu ? thanks for help

Come ooon! :) The whole bet thing was of course a joke. What I had in mind is that you'd have to hack Gmail which I believe won't classify as "relatively easy". Not to mention that even just for "proof of concept" this would be illegal, so I'd never expect you to do it. Alright, the most important thing in this discussion appears that we all agree that signing mails to ML or not, either way there's no harm. So, I think we'd better stop at this point and let it go.

But I said "relatively easy", I meant that if you have your own server running (with for example sendmail) and enough criminal energy, know how, I'm pretty sure that it's possible. And I'm also pretty sure that my thinking is much to complicated. Because e-mail abuse is not new and your "proof of concept" is probably since a long time ago produced. ;-) W.
