(OT) mail and list server for OS X?

2002-09-20 Thread Luis Sequeira
Hi, I have been serving too small lists on my mac with OS 9, using free software: Macjordomo as a list server and Stalker Internet Mail Server as a mail server, so that the mail accounts of the lists actually reside in my mac. I want to move up to OS X, which I hoped would make it easy to do

Hmm, I seem to have jumped midway into this thread. Do I understand that you're trying to install 9.1 over 8.1? It's been a long time since I used OS 8x but if memory serves, you have to update to OS 9.0 before installing 9.1. At any rate, you need to update to 8.6 before doing anything with OS

Just a question. Is this easily corrupted in your own experience, or via word-of-mouth from others? I've been using Entourage for about a year and a half, and I've never lost and email, and any corruption I've had was easily fixed with a database rebuild. I haven't counted recently, but I

Ah, nostalgia! Yes, this brings it all back. But wasn't it the case that you had to update 8.0 to 9.0 before you could install 9.1? Perhaps Mr Turner can be more specific? I had an 8100 once and I successfully installed OS 9 on it over OS 8.1 using the OS 9.0.4 CD. You don't have to upgrade

Let me get this straight, Van. You say you can install 8.1, right? But that 9.1 won't do a clean install. What if you were to hack your 8.1 System Folder with ResEdit (Finder, System and System Resources) and fool the installer into believing you already had OS 9.0 on board? Worth a try.
