Dead on. Mime is two logically separate components, one is MIME encoding, taking binary or unicode data and encoding it to ASCII. The other is the Multipart encapsulation of data. (Yes, it is possible to use one without the other.) There are some other tidbits and extensions, but that's the heart of it. -- Ted Deppner http://www.psyber.com/~ted/ ___ vox-tech mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech

There's on available for the Agenda VR3 PDA (although I'm not sure what state it's in), and I'd be surprised if there weren't one for iPAQs running Linux.

RE: [vox-tech] off subjec: PDA showing a copy of Windows screen o n aPDA screen
Is this a project that you want to put a lot of time into? If you go down the wine path, I imagine you will have to then configure an x-server on a linux based PDA. While this would be pretty cool and might enjoy a slick wireless LAN connection to the box running the app, you might not enjoy the setup process involved. Or the setup process might take too much time to be worthwhile. I don't know if Back Orifice provides remote windowing capability, but you might look into that. Also, Win XP is supposed to have a lot of new remote admin features. I'm not a Windows expert though... Good luck with this project--it sounds like it'd be really cool if you could figure something out. Nick >Have you tried wine?

As long as the port is really tcpwrapped you raise the bar. Address based authentication is weak, but it appears as though you are concerned with keeping your effort/effect ratio low. Monitor your server. Keep good backups away from the machine. Wash behind your ears. -Ricardo ___ vox-tech mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech
Re: [vox-tech] what is mime?
Not my own words, but from the gnus info files (gnus)Using MIME: Mime is a standard for waving your hands through the air, aimlessly, while people stand around yawning. MIME, however, is a standard for encoding your articles, aimlessly, while all newsreaders die of fear. MIME may specify what character set the article uses, the encoding of the characters, and it also makes it possible to embed pictures and other naughty stuff in innocent-looking articles. -Ricardo Peter Jay Salzman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > i think mime provides a logical division of an email based on content -- like > an attachment or a gpg signature, and this allows mail clients to deal with > the material in an appropriate manner. > > if this isn't correct, can someone provide a better, simple explanation in > their own words? > > thanks, > pete > > -- >** Please don't send me html email ** > PGP Fingerprint: B9F1 6CF3 47C4 7CD8 D33E 70A9 A3B9 1945 67EA 951D > PGP Public Key: finger [EMAIL PROTECTED] > ___ > vox-tech mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech ___ vox-tech mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech
Re: [vox-tech] what is mime?
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 I think the purpose of MIME is to give e-mail system the ability to transfer messages with the format other than US-ASCII. With MIME, you can transfer binary file through e-mail by encoding and decoding the messages before and after transfer happens.

i think mime provides a logical division of an email based on content -- like an attachment or a gpg signature, and this allows mail clients to deal with the material in an appropriate manner. if this isn't correct, can someone provide a better, simple explanation in their own words? thanks, pete -- ** Please don't send me html email ** PGP Fingerprint: B9F1 6CF3 47C4 7CD8 D33E 70A9 A3B9 1945 67EA 951D PGP Public Key: finger [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ vox-tech mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech
