THAT's a bounce. jam is not mentioned in mary's mail I wouldn't call it a bounce if it's rewriting the From: header (although evolution does add a new Envelope-From: header that things like Outlook can pick up on). I guess that it is what the RFC calls it. Mailers like mail. elm, mutt do it right. The GUI mailers have their knickers in a knot. The bayesian filters on spam assassin need to learn that mail From: BadGuys To: Learner is tagged as spam, but all permutations of [EMAIL PROTECTED] is NOT spam Thanks for help and comments James -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
[SLUG] A logic question?
Alright, so today I was all prep and keen for a job interview (my first in a year and a half) working with what seems like a pretty in.the.know team of guys (Linux web-hosters/service providers). I get about half way through the initial testing papers (before the verbal) and stumble upon this question which just failed me - and then, in between stairing vaguely off in to the distance and ignoring my at.the.time rambling mrs (something about guitar hero 3.. not entirely sure there) I got it... but all to late. Has anyone been in a situation where a mostly obvious/logical questions is put forward but you are just to damn nervous to answer it and your brain just halts and then begins to work so overtime the answer which is right in front of you fails? So here it is... don't laugh. You are standing by a river, you have 2 jugs - one 5 gallons and the other 3, you need exactly 4 gallons. How do you go about achieving this? -- When one burns ones bridges, what a very nice fire it makes. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html

First convert to litres as this is Australia. Fill the 3L container. Pour 3 litres into the 5 litre container. Fill the 3L again and pour as much as will fit into the 5L. ( 1L will be left in the 3L container. ) Tip out the 5L. Pour the 1L remaining from the 3L container into the 5L. Now fill the 3L and then pour all this into the 5L. Convert back to gallons.
