[newbie] kmail problem
Hi Folks, Recently I got a problem that I could frequently receive emails, which, I guess, are supposedly sent to my colleague. Although most of those emails are spam mails, I believe, it's kinda annoying. Because I don't know whether this problem comes from? Could anyone tell something by analysizing the following property from one of those emails. It's a problem of my Kmail, or my mail server or the guy deliberately sent those emails to me. What could give me a hint is, my email box does appear in the X-Real-To area. Many thanks. Bests, Q.H.

What could give me a hint is, my email box does appear in the X-Real-To area. Many thanks. That is also probably the answer to your question. The X-Real-To appears to be the MTA's header that signals what it received in the mail header as the target or To: of the mail. The To: line that you see in Kmail is actually part of the body of the mail message, not the mail header. MTA's use the header and not the body to direct mail to the recipient so the body piece is ignored, except perhaps by your Kmail filters and the like. So, it appears that some spammer has figured out that he can send mail to you with a fake To: line in the body and try to avoid spam filters in that fashion. I have had this happen in my system as well with spammers forging From: lines in the body instead in an attempt to bypass spam filters. Since my MTA actually filters on the headers, it doesn't work but I do see the results. You might want to create another filter and make it filter on the body and simply dump all messages that appear to be for your colleague. -- Bryan Phinney Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

[newbie] kmail - delayed send
Is there any way to have kmail send a message at some defined time in the future? I often write a message that I don't want sent until a specified time. MS Exchange allows a message not to be sent before a specified time, but I haven't found a similar feature (yet) in kmail. TIA Paul Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

[newbie] KMail configuration
I never noticed it with the older version of kmail, but now I'm seeing that some kmail users are displaying Mandrake's footer message in full and others have it as an attachment. I presume there's a setting somewhere for this? I'd really rather keep that paper-clip display for things that have a real attachment, and I see that I am one of those mis-using it - if you can call it a mis-use.

Sorry if I'm not making this a threaded msg, anyway, I'm using imap folders only with fetchmail to get mail from my isp and procmail to process toss it into the folders. Not connecting to an imap server. I looked for any lock files, couldn't find any. Would deleting my .kde folder in /home and restarting kde possibly clear up the problem? As I said, its the same in knode, I can't start any new articles there either. Both apps just lock up. Thanks again for any help Chris Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

[newbie] Kmail Problem
Ok 2 Kmail questions probably not related. 1, recently when I start kmail (when machine is first booted up) I get this message box KDEInit could not kontact-Kmail.sh. Kmail stil starts up and down loads any new mail and seems to work ok. I click ok and the error msbox goes away. There is generaly 5/6 konqueror and 1 gaim sessions starting up at the same time. 2, When I leave the Linux box alone for long periods running Kmail ( set to check for mail every 5 mins), and internet radio through amorok, Kmail seems to take for ever to complete a new mail check. I noticed this just berfore going to bed and so am shutting the pc down, so I dont know if it completes the new mail check. -- Guy Fualks - The only man to enter the houses of Parliament with honest intentions, (he was going to blow them up).

[newbie] Kmail not forwarding with full headers
Greg, did some checking and KDEbug 57008 has been submitted previously for this. The fix is to select full headers in the view menu, shutdown and restart Kmail, this will display the full message headers in forwards whether in-line or as an attachment no matter what other header view mode you select. Thought you may be interested. I did add a comment to the bug that this problem still exists in 1.7.1. -- Chris Registered Linux User 283774 http://counter.li.org 17:26:36 up 9 days, 45 min, 1 user, load average: 0.27, 0.31, 0.42 Mandrake Linux 10.1 Official, kernel 2.6.8.1-12mdk You will have long and healthy life.

[newbie] Kmail question
I asked this in the kdepim-users list but no reply yet, possibly someone here can assist me, below is what I sent: When forwarding a message either in-line or as an attachment, the full headers are sometimes shown and sometimes not, most times not. Since I mostly use this to forward phishing msgs to certain addresses, its important that the full headers are shown. I've gone through the composer settings for Kmail and haven't been able to get this to work yet. If I remember correctly in the previous version I was running this wasn't a problem as the full headers were always shown in the attachment. Can someone enlighten me on what changes I need to make to get this to work correctly.

I'm getting confused by the threading here, but in case you missed my post to the hijacked thread: Rebooted? I think it may not be kmail--you may have a hardware problem. Something about kmail may be accessing a specific part of your hd, or using a specific amount of cpu or memory, or ethernet, and that is the cause of the crash. The reason I say this, a few years ago, sometimes when I tried to transfer files from-or-to one of the computers on my network I would get a spontaneous reboot. Now, the weird part is, more than one computer was doing this, but one specific computer was always involved (either it would reboot or the one being transferred to or from would reboot). After a couple of months of pulling my hair out, I changed the network card in that machine and the problem went away! | | What is up with that ?? I have never had any problems with Kmail. Well, any problem I've ever had was cured by deleting my /home/username/.kde and logging back in. e Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

If so, export your old user's address book to a directory somewhere safe, and rename your .kde directory in the /home for your old username. Restart kde and log in as your old username, and everything will probably work when kde creates a new .kde for your old username. If it does, remove your new user.

I initially tried to 'kill' the process but it isn't acutally running. So I just delete the lock file. I can't understand why this should be happening since I always manage a clean shut down.

[newbie] KMail crash on 10.0
Hi I'm having a problem with KMail after I upgraded one of the machines here that previously ran MDK 9.2. Before the upgrade, KMail chugged happily along and everything was fine and dandy. Now, however, whenever I try to navigate in the message list, or compose a new e-mail, it crashes and prints the error message: relocation error: kmail: undefined symbol: _ZN17Syntaxhighlighter16DictSpellCheckerC1EP9QTextEditbb6QColorbS3_S3_S3_S3_ to the console. Something with the way the spell checker is set up? I looked at the problem briefly, but I don't really have time to mess around with it a lot. Not now, anyway. So I'm kind of hoping someone else knows what's going on :) //Philip pgp0.pgp Description: PGP signature

Well I figured out that kmail was contained in kdenetwork so I uninstalled it, then reinstalled kdenetwork. Didn't make any difference. I have also uninstalled XFree86, by moving to CLI stopping X with top. Running urpme to remove X, a couple of programs wouldnt allow that reinstalled with urpmi and no difference.

However, that usually only runs once per night so if the file has been removed and updatedb has not run yet, slocate will show an improper location for a file that is not there. Run updatedb as root from CLI and then do a locate kmail and you might find that it is not on your system. -- Bryan Phinney Software Test Engineer Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

[newbie] Kmail again; unable to send
Okay, please bear with me; I seem to be having one of my stupid days ... :-\ So, I found and installed Kmail, looked around, and decided it just might meet my needs better than Evolution has. Fine. I'm receiving mail just fine, filtering it, blah, blah, blah, blah ... however, I just went to send a message and I get errors. (See below) I know this isn't rocket science, and I've successfully set up a multitude of e-mail clients for SMTP before, but for some reason this is just escaping me. With every attempted send, I get: Sending failed: Unknown error Unexpected server response to EHLO command. The server responded: Unknown command The message will stay in the 'outbox' folder until you either fix the problem (e.g. a broken address) or remove the message from the 'outbox' folder. The following transport protocol was used: and that's it. I'm just using my standard smtp address for my ISP's server (and have double- and triple-checked for spelling errors there), and the server doesn't require any special log-in procedure of which I'm aware (didn't set any up when I was in Evolution), so I'm just at a loss as to what stupid thing I may be overlooking, or if there's some quirky setting in Kmail that I'm just not seeing. Any ideas as to what I'm glossing over? (And, since you will theoretically shortly be receiving this via a send from Evolution, I think we can rule out server difficulties...)

Re: [newbie] (KMail) how to filter based on CC?
On Mon, 15 Mar 2004 12:54 pm, many eyes viewed JoeHill's words:- On Mon, 15 Mar 2004 16:43:37 +0700 Fajar PRiyanto disseminated the following: I have made a filter based on the CC, but it seems that it's not working. Can anybody give me direction here how to filter those CC? The filter rules are maybe done in order, try 'moving' that CC filter rule 'up' in the order, so that it doesn't get overridden by some other filter rule. There is another thing that I have discovered by accident. If you configure the filter rules and in the box where the address or words are placed if there is a space behind them when you put the cursor there. the rules will not work. Make certain that the cursor in the address or words is directly at the last letter, don't have a space. I couldn't understand why a couple of rules didn't work, and that was the problem. Remove the space and the filters worked. Maybe this will help.
