Under the Receiving tab, select the account then the "Modify" button. On the "General" tab, there is a box "Filter messages if they are greater than". Make sure it is unchecked. If it was checked, that may be the source of the problem. I seem to remember that it occasionally gets the wrong file size or adds all the files together or something. No guarantees. Just a suggestion. Jim Kuzdrall > > On 10/9/06, Jim Kuzdrall <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On Monday 09 October 2006 12:17 pm, Kjel Anderson wrote: > > > I am having a weird problem with Kmail.

Re: Hosstraders Fall 2006 - Mission Accomplished
I was amused that Ted was wearing the same outback pocket-master cargo-vest I was -- was Ted scarred by Captain Kangaroo too? I have (but didn't wear on Friday, when I was at Hosstraders) my Banana Republic photographers vest (from the olden days pre-Gap, when Banana Republic was really about safari style, not yuppies). http://www.mkwphotography.com/vest.htm I'll wear it to the next Hosstraders, we should get a photo of all us together and start a class action lawsuit. :) Or maybe it's just "geek chic" ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
Kmail weirdness
Hey everyone,I am having a weird problem with Kmail. When it connects to my pop server, it sees the mail, but thinks that it has 0 size. It doesn't do this for every message, it seems like it happens a few times a day. I tried Thunderbird email, and it does not exhibit this problem. The mail server is at Pair networks, and they are scratching their heads as well. Any tips on how to start debugging this would be apprecitated. Thanks,Kjel

Re: Hosstraders Fall 2006 - Mission Accomplished
Well, another Hosstraders is behind us, and we survived. We didn't get there until late, but it was glad to be able to chat with Mike and Heather for a short bit at least. I was amused that Ted was wearing the same outback pocket-master cargo-vest I was -- was Ted scarred by Captain Kangaroo too? Maybe someday I'll get to a non-Hosstraders GNHLUG meeting ;-) (Note for Mike -- it may be that 256 v 384 is key for Ubuntu, as it really doesn't seem to like our smaller Lifebook. Xubuntu didn't either, though, which bothers me. Puppy seems to run as Root, and DSL's mutant mixed Woody-kernel, Sarge-apps Debian seems like it would be a nightmare to keep up on patches with, so I'm not sure what to do.) -- Bill in Boston [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] decvax!world!wdr ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss
SLUG meeting tonight at 7pm in Morse Hall rm 301 Durham, NH
What is This Lojban Thing? October 9, 2006 from 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM UNH Morse Hall conference room 301 What if the language we speak affects how we think? If that's true, what if we spoke a language that had a basis in logic? Would it lead to more logical thought? "Lojban", a language based on predicate logic with an unambiguous grammar, is the second generation of a language conceived to answer those questions. This presentation will start with a basic introduction to the Lojban language (http://www.lojban.org)*, covering** the language's grammar, semantics, history, and its relation to the predicate calculus. Because the Lojban language is grammatically unambiguous, it is ideally suited to interaction with computers. Linux software related to Lojban will be demonstrated, including a Lojban grammar parser, Lojban speech synthesizers, a Lojban-English translator, Lojban computer games, and various Lojban media such as music, poems, and podcasts in the Lojban language. This presentation is free (as in free beer) and open to the public. (* An independent presentation, this talk is neither an official function of, nor endorsed by the Logical Language Group, Inc.) (** Content subject to change without notice. Always consult your doctor before learning a new language. May cause headache, dizziness, and increased intelligence.
