[newbie] Sympa
I received the following after getting downright rude with Mandrake about not being able to subscribe here or with the expert list with my everyday email address. Thought those of you with similar problems would get a chuckle. Dear Mr , I'm sorry if I didn't find a solution for your mail adress to be on our lists. I asked the appropriate service but I think they didn't find a solution. Sorry for the inconvenience, Stéphane Gustin How can the distro be so good and the business end be so lame? Don't they know that for many, the list is the reason the distro works? Without you all I would have been off in another direction years ago.

This time for whatever reason 9.0 does not contain a contrib snapshot. Of course that does not stop you getting your hands on it. All mirrors have a contrib directory. For example ftp://ftp.rediris.es/pub/linux/distributions/mandrake-devel/contrib/i586 You can even get urpmi access with the command urpmi.addmedia contrib ftp://ftp.rediris.es/pub/linux/distributions/mandrake-devel/contrib/i586 with ./synthesis.hdlist2.cz (That command is all one line) Be aware though that the synthesis file is not always up to date, and you may have to ftp to the directory to find the app you want. derek Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

[newbie] sympa... questo sconosciuto
Sto cercando di mettere su una lista x i miei amici e io e, dopo essermi letto tutto quello che trovavo su postfix e majordomo, mi sono accorto che la mia distro (mdk 8.1) cia' il sympa gia' installato! Ora, mentre x tutto il resto ho trovato vari howto (anche in italiano!) + che esaustivi, x quest'ultimo trovo solo quanto pubblicato sul sito francese di riferimento. Da una ricerca con google sulle pagine in italiano ho potuto rilevare che, pur essendo utilizzato da varie liste in cui si parla di mandrake, nessuno di quelli che hanno gia' implementato queste mailing list e' stato molto prodigo di suggerimenti con tutti coloro che lamentavano difficolta' e problemi con questo gestore... si limitavano a rispondere: questa lista e' implementata con sympa! (come dire: tant'e', come vedi funziona, quindi datti una svegliata!). Mah domani in ufficio mi stampo il manuale ufficiale (in francese?!?) poi, se ci capisco qualcosa bene, al peggio lo disinstallo e uso Majordomo! ;) P.S.: mi sono anche scaricato i manuali .pdf della mia distro ma di sympa neanche l'ombra.
