Thanks for your help Uwe and Robin. I found Robins mail also funny until
he made fun of me. Yes, it's true I should have read the FAQ and should
have stated my OS (Redhat Linux 7.0 i386) and logging tool (multilog). I
just thought this is kind of standard. What I don't understand why Robin
cannot write something like: check the FAQ for answers about how to
archive all incoming and outgoing mail and second I cannot help you if you
don't tell me your OS and logging tool. It is basically the same, but
a lot more friendly. If you just look how much energy people and I mean
PEOPLE have to talk about everything else than the question I orginally
had, it is hard to believe how difficult it is to remind somebody to read
the FAQ or just to ignore boring questions.

Watch this mailing list, and see who's been around longest (has the
most established reputation to protect), and who supplies the most
clueful answers.
I'd buy your suport every day, Russel. And I mean it.
Well put. Very much in the spirit of user supported software...
May I kindly ask you to, like, get a life? Russel offers commercial
support. He's contributing here *A LOT*. You, on the other hand, are a
whining luser.
Russ, I'm not saying they shouldn't give us the information needed to
help them. I'm just of the opinion we shouldn't jump down every
newbie's throat just because they are a little over cautious.
What dictionary did you look cautious up in? Or are you referring to the
OP's overly cautious use of the recommended reading aka FAQ?
Put yourself in their shoes.
Eh. That's what alt.rec.suicide is for.
Imagine walking up to an Automated Teller Machine and seeing a guy,
presumably a maintenance worker, adjusting the electronics. He says,
The card reader and pad aren't working. Just give me your card and
PIN number and I'll swipe it back here.

Would you like me to tell you the programs and version numbers to go
along with that, too, Sir?
Would YOU hand over your card?
https://mail.socha.net/about/ - happy cracking, luser. Do you need any
help running nmap?
All he wants to do it help you, right?
Since putting them down is a non-op, yes.
Think about it...
Talking to yourself a lot, eh?
