I don't know what icedove is, but what you need is not to reply to 
anything but to start a new message. Changing titles does not start a 
new thread, nor should it. Ask yourself: what is the difference between a 
/new/ message and a /reply/ to another message?

You should be able just to click on the list address in any email from 
the list; that will start a new thread.

Alex Schuster answer:

Use emerge --resume --skipfirst to continue where you were, skipping
this package.
Or simply emerge --keep-going , this will continue
automatically even if a package fails.
To compile the package that faileed, there is often a bug report on
bugs.gentoo.org already. Just google for the error message, and if
you're lucky, you will find the solution. If not, just open a new bug
report :)

David Abbott suggest:

check out "man emerge" and some useful
parameters like --skip-first,  --resume and --keep-going.

Stroller:

Have you rebooted the system yet? Don't bother about installing Gnome
until you've done so. Be absolutely minimal in your steps, if they're
not directly related to having a working system. A DE is eyecandy -
just get the disks prepared, the files copied, the kernel installed
and the bootloader going. When the system boots for the first time to
a plain console you can then log in as root and add ~jose, cron,
syslog, GUI (although you'll probably want to install GNU screen a
little bit earlier).

Finally i re-try emerge gnome and package that i thought that fails
was... mail-client/evolution-2.28.3.1 saying... libmail-evolution.so
is not portable. Maybe this is only a warning...

i'll use emerge --keep-going gnome and be patient to compilation
finish... and libmail-evolution.so is not portable apear varios times
from diferent .la and finally go to next package... and compilation
finish successful.

This night i'll finish this steps...

The quick install guide is for users who are already experienced with  
Gentoo. With a Debian background, you'll probably be fine, but you  
might find it worth keeping the full install guide handy.

Once you have the system booting you'll be able to copy & paste the  
full output of the error.  Note that most install CDs also offer SSH,  
if you have another, fully-working system.


Stroller.

Hi Jose and welcome to Gentoo, check out "man emerge" and some useful
parameters like --skip-first,  --resume and --keep-going.
