[newbie-it] Fetchmail/Procmail+Balsa=Perfetto!
Giuseppe ho installato Balsa, e devo dire che fa proprio al caso mio! Interfaccia grafica, semplice da utilizzare ma soprattutto lo posso configurare facilmente con la posta in locale! Quindi scarico con fetchmail, distribuisco con procmail e leggo e scrivo cone balsa, per spedire la posta invece utilizzo il sever in remoto... nel mio caso mail.inwind.it:25 Insomma ora non mi resta che inserire in fetchmail tutti gli account e creare quelche filtro anti spam in procmail. Aaa proposito... è possibile filtrare la posta prima di scaricarla? Cioè se mi arriva una tonnellata di Spam io non la voglio nemmeno scaricare... con il mio bel 56 k scaricare 10 mail in più tutte belle colorate in html mi rompe non poco!! Non posso filtrarla direttamente in remoto e poi automatizzare il download delle mail che hanno superato i filtri? Ps: Giuseppe avevi ragione sull'instabilità di balsa... adesso però l'ho aggiornato alla vers 2.0.13 che guarda caso è stata compilata e testata proprio sulla RH9. Per ora non ha ancora dato segni di cedimento... :) ciao ciao Davide PS: Se qualcuno può postare anche qualche esempio di filtro per procmail... assieee!! :)

Well that is what I'm used to, and the price is right, though I would dearly of liked a 19 for the same money. Question , How much would you have to pay in the states for a 19 flat screen with at least 1280 x 1024 resolution and is that the same in reality as a regular CRT monitor of the same resolution ? Who has the experience to say ? because I don't. John I have a 17 TFT screen. Its great..and keep in mind a 17 is equivalnet to an 18 CRT. NOt sure why has somethign to do witht eh way the bezel lines up the screen...Just don't expect to game with it. and a 19 in canada is still pricy.. I paid $500 on sale at Xmas last year for this one.. the TFT came in @ about $500 too. So they are still expensive either way...but and LCD is brighter smaller.. so its really your choice there. But native resolution means that it can't go higher w/out looking like shit. Or lower for that matter. Which kinda sucks for some stuff like games certain apps (Gimp for example if you want to run it higher). Femme Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com

I have installed PPC 9.1 on a Mac 9500/200. The videocard is ATI mach 64 GX, and the display an Apple 16 Color monitor.
