RE: [newbie] Not getting anywhere - IGNORE THIS TROLL!
I'm actually using Outlook98 as my mail reader so the comment about /dev/null was actually more tongue-in-cheek. It comes with a configurable junk mail filter. Now, to answer your question. There is an anti-spam filter, I believe it is called clean, available on your Mandrake distribution. I don't think it works with sendmail but is designed to work with one of the other mail servers available on the distribution, which is probably a good thing because my understanding is that sendmail is, excuse the expression, a bitch to configure. I know it's becoming a little cliche but check through the Linux docs, or, if we are lucky, maybe one of the more enlightened souls can clue us in on the use of this tool. BTW, for those who don't know /dev/null actually exists. It is a kind of cyber black hole you can actually direct output to when you don't want to see it, i.e. a program may create output that you don't really need so you just redirect it to /dev/null so it doesn't bother you. i.e. [user somedirectory] # thisprogramprintsjunk /dev/null -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, August 20, 1999 10:58 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [newbie] Not getting anywhere - IGNORE THIS TROLL!

(for the newbies a troll is someone who instigates flamewars by using inflammatory language) I will admit that I am getting very frustrated with the hardware setup portion of linux.. but I am learning.. and it is just lack of knowledge of the system that is holding me back. One thing I find a bit of a problem as well is the fact that MOST books on Linux are written for one distro or another.. and not in general.. but it is just taking me a little longer thats all. I have succeeded in one thing though people.. I HAVE MY MODEM WORKING!! I have my Motorola Voicesurfer working now.. it was just a matter of using Setserial correctly and I am up and running now on ttys2 IRQ 11 W HOOO!!! Now I have two things left.. My SB64 pci card which is sharing an IRQ with another PCI device and linux does not seem to like that.. even though it is PCI complaint. My guess would be the onboard ide controler is conflicting with the secondary on your mother board, disable one or the other. ANd my PNP ISA DLink 220 Networking card.. which I was not able to setup durring the install.. I would like to get it working now.. becuase I would like to make my own local area net with my laptops and my desktop. Should work with the ne driver, be aware that Dlink doesn't always conform to the ne2000 standard. The last Dlink i had required hacking the ne2000 driver to recognise the id string.
