Distinct destinations to messages fetched with fetchmail from different mail servers
Hello. I am happy using fetchmail to fetch my mail messages from my ISP provider POP3 server. When received in my local mail box, these messages passes through procmail, which put them in defferent mail folders according to some criteria I have established in the procmail recipe file. Now I need to fetch mail messages also from a new server (my university). These mail should not be classified by my procmail recipe as are the ones from the ISP provider. Instead they should go directly to a specific mail folder. How can I configure my Red Hat Linux 7.2 system to cope with this situation? My current .fetchmailrc file is attached. Certainly the adition of a rule for the new server is not enough. May I have to put some new (unique) mark in the header of the messages from the new server and add a rule in my procmail recipe to identify such messages, remove the added mark and save it to the mail folder it belongs to. Is this doable with fetchmail? If yes, how? Maybe this is the ideal solution, as later I may decide to do more sofisticated filtering with the messages with procmail. Another solution would be to not pass through procmail and save the messages from the new server directly to their mail folder. Is this doable? If yes how? Regards.

The problem persists even without any GNOME application being started. As was pointed by others, the menu entry "Customize -> Miscellaneous" opens a configuration window with the option "Invoke the GNOME control center from the 'Customize' menu", which is selected by default in my system. Deselecting it removes GNOME integration, giving back the Restart and Quit entries in the root menu, but loosing the GNOME menu entries in the Programs submenu. Related to this setting, there is a line in the ~/.sawfish/custom file: (custom-set-typed-variable (quote gnome-use-capplet) (quote t) (quote boolean) (quote sawfish.wm.gnome.integration)) > The fix that I have is the following in .sawfish/rc (or .sawfishrc). > > ; unconditionally require integration; we always want it > (require 'sawfish.wm.gnome.integration) > ; add back Quit > (require 'sawfish.wm.menus) > (require 'sawfish.wm.misc) > (nconc root-menu `(() (,(_ "Restart") restart) (,(_ "Quit") quit))) That is what I did, and I have also disabled the "gnome-use-capplet" feature as described above.

Sawfish root menu without Quit !
Hello. I am running sawfish in my Red Hat Linux 7.2 in box. The window manager is being started from my ~/.Xclients file: [...] gkrellm & exec sawfish [...] The root menu (activated with the midle mouse button) does not include the "Quit" entry. It has only the entries: Windows, Workspaces, Programs, Customize and Help. How am I supposed to quit the window manager? The problem arises because I am not running GNOME. If so, I could just choose the "Log out" entry in the GNOME menu. Maybe Red Hat has pre-configured sawfish to eliminate the "Quit" entry from its root menu. How can I get it back so that I can cleanly close sawfish? Thanks.

Hello. I am going to rebuild and install the binary RPM packages of the Linux kernel from Rawhide in my RedHat Linux 7.2 box.

Maybe the problem is the following: Before installing RHL6.2 I decided to have Wind*ws at my machine (in order to make good use of an HP DeskJet 820Cxi win printer). So it is configured for dual booting Win98 or RHL6.2. I have configured both systems to use the same IP address (but with different hostnames, although same domain name). Probably the message was rejected while I was running Wind*ws, as it is not serving mail here. The question is: can I use the same IP address for Wind*ws and RHL in a box configured for dual booting? I need both conected to the net, but we are short of IP addresses. As there any solution to this distinct from using different IP adresses? Thanks.

Formatting manual pages for printing?
I would like to convert some manual pages to PostScript so that I could print them. I already know about the option -t, for example, $ man -t fmirror > /var/tmp/fmirror.ps The default paper size used seems to be A4 in may system. How can I change this so I could use other paper sizes, like letter and A5? Any hints? Thanks.

News as mail: how?
Hello. Is it possible to have usenet news access by normal email? I would like to receive news articles as email messages and I would like to archive them. Is there a solution to this? My connection to the Internet is not too fast so sometimes its painful to read news from deja (via Web). Any hints?

Free news server ?
Is there any news server free offering the newsgroups from USENET (i.e., comp.lang.scheme, comp.os.unix)? (I am not looking for web based news server like deja news, but news server to be used with a news reader.) Thanks.

Re: GCC 2.95 ?
Dear Bernard, In the URL mentioned below I found some packages you have compiled with optmizations for i686. What are the options you give to gcc for that purpose? I would like to download only the SRPMS and rebuild them. That is why I want to know which flags you have used. Thanks.

GCC 2.95 ?
I am looking for an rpm package for GCC 2.95.2 that can be used in RedHat Linux 6.1 without the need to substitute the distributed gcc (egcs 1.1.2). Basicaly some projects would use gcc 2.95 and other projects would use the original gcc. So the gcc package I am looking for should not substitute egcs, but should be usable as an alternative. Is there such gcc 2.95 rpm package somewhere in the net?

Why the contrib repository is not been updated?
The most recent package found at ftp.redhat.com/contrib/libc6/SRPMS (m2c-0.6-1.src.rpm) dates from set 16 21:44. I keep receiving announcements of new packages from redhat-announce-list. Could someone explain what is going on: why the contrib repository at RedHat is not being update?
