Comment #72 by Jean-Yves Lefort on 2008-10-05: I own the Mail Notification trademark. Shipping a modified MN version that I have explicitly been disagreeing with is called trademark infringement. If someone wants to legally distribute such a MN version, he has to change the name of the application. Aside from everything else, please disregard this particular nonsense. It might be preferable to not take the same name to preclude misunderstandings or out of respect, but there is no such thing as trademark protection of generic names.

[Bug 44335] Re: IMAP/POP3+SSL/TLS are disabled
Hi, more than a year ago I provided a patch for mail notification to work with gnutls hoping that this would speedup either distribution with openssl or gnutls enabled. At that time, creating a gnutls enabled mail notification package failed due to a lack of time of the involved persons. As it looks to me that distributing mail notification with openssl support enabled will still take some more time before it happens, I've now updated the mail notification 5.4 ubuntu jaunty source package to come with gnutls enabled. Though, the upstream author mentioned in comment 64 that he would dislike such a package being named mail notification. That's why I renamed the package to secure mail notification. As soon as debian and ubuntu decide to distribute mail notification with openssl support enabled, secure mail notification will become obsolete. For those who cannot await secure mail notification being in the universe repository, I'm uploading a signed binary (jaunty x86) and the source package. -- IMAP/POP3+SSL/TLS are disabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/44335 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

If you can't recompile, you can use Stunnel. It binds to a port on your computer and forwards traffic with encryption (like ssh, but you don't need a shell account on the remote host). This is how Conky does secure email checks. Read the Conky FAQ at http://conky.sourceforge.net/faq.html (Q #10) to get it working. The Stunnel configuration will work just as well for mail-notification as it will for Conky.

[Bug 44335] Re: IMAP/POP3+SSL/TLS are disabled
This is what we in the U.S. call a Mexican standoff. This is a human problem, not a technical problem. Free software has been burdened by it for decades. This is why Emacs forked and XFree86 stagnated for years under bad management until Keith Packard staged a coup. Most free software developers and maintainers are volunteers, so they can't be forced to do anything. They are free to behave like children if they wish. I'm concerned when people say things like, I admire your devotion to your principles, but . . . in situations like this, because they're confusing integrity with inflexibility. If I refuse to do something which I consider immoral, I am demonstrating integrity. If I'm asked to do something legal, moral, and easy, but I refuse because I believe my interpretation of the rules should prevail, and any who have the temerity to disagree with me must submit to my superior opinion, even if that process is prolonged and inflicts collateral damage upon people who aren't even privy to the dispute, then I'm being inflexible. This situation is analogous to one I repeatedly encounter in my interactions with children who have Asperger's syndrome/high-functioning autism (I have it, too, like many programmers). Two autistic children who are playing a board game will disagree about the correct interpretation of the rules and they deadlock, neither making a move, each absolutely focused on winning the argument and making the other relent, so they miss the opportunity to enjoy the game, which was the original point. This behavior isn't admirable, it's petty. The children aren't defending moral principles. They just want everything their way. While there's nothing illogical about what they're doing, it's inconsiderate. They take do-or-die stands on trivial issues because they don't consider what other people might regard as important. Many people think this is simple selfishness, but this is actually a manifestation of a problem we have appreciating, in general, the perspectives of other people, and, specifically, considering the harmful effects our actions will have on other people, particularly bystanders. I actually agree with Jean-Yves Lefort's interpretation of the Debian policy document, but I'm more sympathetic to Debian's position because I think it's an overly cautious response to a legitimate fear of being destroyed by lawsuits. Even if the lawsuits have no merit, the cost in money and time (especially time) can be severely damaging. Their position may be technically incorrect, but I believe it's understandable in light of the threats to free software (e.g. SCO vs. Linux, a perfect example of a lawsuit without merit consuming time and resources). I want to emphasize, however, that either side could resolve this standoff. That is the nature of any Mexican standoff. Debian could and should fix the policy document so that people like Jean-Yves and me don't interpret it the way we do, since that isn't their intention. They should do this without regard to what Jean-Yves chooses to do or not do. It will only benefit them in the long run. Whether they will or not, however, is something only they control. In closing, I'd like to assure both sides that I'm not here just to criticize them. I'm running Debian with mail-notification at this moment, and I'm enjoying them both. mail-notification took long enough to compile that I know I wouldn't have had the patience to write it myself, so I'm appreciative of all the time Jean-Yves spent on it. As for the Debian and Ubuntu maintainers, they've saved me more time and money than I can count.

This is how I build my package. I think this should work with Ubuntu, but I use Debian. Hopefully an Ubuntu user will report whether this works or not. You need to have deb-src lines in your /etc/apt/sources.list to download package sources. You'll have a bunch of files, so I suggest you make a directory to contain them. apt-get source mail-notification sudo apt-get build-dep mail-notification sudo apt-get install libssl-dev (this was removed from the build dependencies) cd mail-notification-5.4.dfsg.1 (the name of this directory may be different on your system) Edit debian/rules. Search for ssl=no and change it to ssl=yes. You can change the version number in debian/changelog if you want to.

I'm trying to get this setup in a PPA.

I have decided that if debian has decided that GPL and libssl are incompatible, I am not going to subject myself to problems by making a PPA of this either. I am just going to keep re-packaging it.

[Bug 44335] Re: IMAP/POP3+SSL/TLS are disabled
Rachel, mail-notification is GPL'd, while OpenSSH and Apache are released under more liberal licenses. The problem isn't with OpenSSL per se; it's with the combination of OpenSSL with a GPL-covered programme. That said, GPL'd software may be combined with OpenSSL _if_ the software's author adds an exception to the license allowing linking with OpenSSL. mail-notification's author refuses to do that. At least, this is the way I understand the situation.

[Bug 44335] Re: IMAP/POP3+SSL/TLS are disabled
Jean-Yves, I, for one, really really like mail-notification and I deeply respect the work that you have put into it. Yet I'm here, unable to use this free piece of software, while the author is explicitely refusing to do anything constructive to change the users' situation, including making a tiny license change that would make everyone happy and wouldn't hurt anyone, at least as far as my viewpoint is concerned. Personally, I think you, as the author, have every right to refuse to help. But you're not only refusing to help, you're at the same time discouraging others from helping themselves. If this is the case, why did you choose the GPL in the first place? The GPL is all about the users' ability to help themselves if need be. This is such a situation. Do you want Ubuntu to distribute a version of mail-notification that you have reviewed for bugs and can proudly put your name on? You could effect this easily by either blessing or, better yet, merging the port to GNUTLS or by changing the license. If you don't want to do either, that's fine, but in this case, why do you complain about someone actually making use of the freedom that your chosen license grants for the exact purpose that is being considered here? -- IMAP/POP3+SSL/TLS are disabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/44335 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi, Running Ubu 8.04 I just tried downloading the most recent source to compile with TLS support and when I tried to run './jb configure' I received an error about GLib not being installed. I fired up synaptic and libglib 2.0 is in fact installed. Tried the 'apt-get build-dep mail-notification' to install the dependencies. After that, tried './jb configure' again and it installed perfectly. So it seems that a good idea is in fact to install the dependencies. Sure, it might also install some unneeded cruft, but I'd rather have a bit of cruft and a functional (and secure) mail scanner than to have no cruft and no scanner. -- IMAP/POP3+SSL/TLS are disabled https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/44335 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Security-wise, the most significant feature must be the usage of GNOME Keyring to store passwords. (They used to be stored in plaintext in ~/.gnome2/mail-notification/mailboxes.xml). Of course that particular feature is mentionned in the NEWS file, the paragraph itself is an entertaining read. Allow me to quote Jean-Yves: Passwords are now encrypted, using GNOME Keyring. Note that I do not endorse the flawed GNOME Keyring approach of granting passwords an encryption-worth status while ignoring other sensitive data. Furthermore, at the time of this writing, GNOME Keyring does not seem to prevent the memory it uses for storing the passwords from being swapped out to disk. However, despite these flaws, it has been observed that GNOME Keyring has beneficial psychological effects on some users. For increased psychological well-being, MN even moves the plain text passwords it finds in mailboxes.xml to the keyring.
