(1) should I have not gone ahead with installation? (2) what does bad signatures mean? Andy The bad signature error is usually because either the rpm isn't signed with a gpg key, or it is and you don't have the key. There should have been something in the error message saying something like MD5 OK and something more on the key. If the MD5 is bad, don't install as the rpm is corrupted. If the key is missing, you have no way of knowing if the rpm is legit. If you know and trust the site, decide if you want to install it. Usually there are keys to be installed for any repository doing much with rpms. If so, just install the keys. The keys are there to make sure that no modified rpm gets slipped into your system under the guise an official or trusted one. It doesn't sound like you did any damage. Just be sure of the source of any rpm you decide to install, and evaluate the risks from there. Rick Kunath Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

Re: [newbie] Thunderbird mail client
Andy, you can install any software on your system using Mandrake Control Center. The same dialog you used for changing the resolution but this time it's on the Software Management tab. But before you do read these following links: Here is a really good intro to installing software on Mandrake linux by, Zeb, although it shows screenshots of mdk 10, IIRC, it is still relevant. http://www.zebulon.org.uk/ICML0.HTML another good link with screenshots of mdk 10.1 plus much more .. http://www.mandrake.tips.4.free.fr/configuration101.html And, Have you had a chance to look at the Community TWiki ? http://mandrake.vmlinuz.ca/bin/view/Main/WebHome Specifically this page titled: All You Ever Wanted to Know About Urpmi But Never Dared Asking Before http://mandrake.vmlinuz.ca/bin/view/Main/UsingUrpmi this will help you understand urpmi soo much more ..

By default, pop is a "store and forward" system. When you retrieve your E-mail, your client software acknowledges having received the E-Mail which should cause the POP server to delete it, unless it is told to do otherwise. Your E-Mail is then held locally on your own machine.
