 Hi everyone

 Recently I decided to try out Sylpheed (only to find that I prefer KMail

 :-) ) and found that when I imported my KMail folders into Sylpheed,

 approx 150 emails that I had deleted weeks before appeared.

 I have KMail set to empty the trash folder on exit.  Could this have been
 caused by manually emptying the trash folder before exiting KMail?

 Weird...

 Any ideas anyone.

 TIA
 skinky


Just a guess, but maybe the old emails were hiding in your other folder 
files, Inbox, Sent Intems, et al. yet they were only marked for deletion.  
When Sylpheed went to import, it ignored the 'deleted' marker next to these 
old emails and imported them anyway.

Maybe compacting each folder before the import would really vaporize the 
emails.

 Even so, he still made that very same prophecy

Read Foucault's Pendulum by Umberto Eco.  Pay close attention to the 
chapter where the mysterious Aglie is being interviewed at his own home.  
Then pay close attention to the ending and see what becomes of people who 
listen to prophecies!

Re: [newbie] next saga for my linnux slackware server

 2. or... what is the slackware equal to dhcpcd cmd in mandrake to have the
 machine talk to my dhcp server?

You might want to try looking for material on 'bootp', I seem to remember 
that was the first incarnation of dhcp on Linux...

Re: FW: [newbie] OT: Win XP hacked already

...There's actually a bigger issue at stake.  Win XP is actually taking a 
fingerpint of your system.  Your NIC, HDD, CD-ROM, CPU, etc all have unique 
serial numbers and Win XP gathers them all up with your name and address and 
sends them to Redmond, WA so you can get an unlocking code in return for your 
copy of the OS.  

While it does guarantee a reduction in piracy is is a flagrant disrespect on 
your privacy, forcing you to divulge information for the sake of using an OS 
you've already paid for!  This is Totalitarianism at its utmost, placing to 
interests of the individual so far beind their own wishes.

Obtaining a hack for Win XP does not necessarily preclude piracy but gives 
one the CHOICE of what information to divulge to the world-at-large.

Of couse, there are lots more choices than that and they begin with Mandrake, 
Red Hat, Debian, Slackware, etc, etc, etc...
