I agree, and that's exactly why I was he first one to menton the possible
LINUX implicatons. But as I already wrote, only 2 other people referred to
that aspect of the problem. All the other posts were about censorship, porn
etc - and those subjects, as interesting as they may be, ARE off topic.

Now that I've learned that to switch input language on Linux I need to click
the small icon with the two letters in the system tray, I'd like to do
the switching by
a keyboard shortcut.
I've learned that the following commands do the switching:
setxkbmap -model pc104 -layout us
setxkbmap -model p

Do a right click on the panel icon. Choose configure and look at the "xkb
options" tab. You'll find lots of ways to switch language.

Hello,
How can I rename and/or delete a file that starts with minus ?
For example:
mv --test test
will end up with the error:
mv: unrecognized option `--test'
Try `mv --help' for more information.
The same error will exists if I'll use the asterisk wildcard instead.
Please note that I'm lookin
a. Try to put AFTER all the regular "minus" options a double-dash
("--"), i.e.
mv -v -- oldfile newfile
this tells the command line parser that no options come after the
double-dash.
b. sometimes backslash, or tick, is enough, i.e.
rm -v 'my*file'
or
rm -v my\*file

In addition to '--' already mentioned, you can
mv ./--test test
This will work with any mv, not only GNU's etc. that accept '--'.

Hello,
I'd like to configure sendmail to discard messages if it runs out of disk space.
By "discard" I mean that I want it to just completely delete the
message and forget about it.
The current situation is that if it runs out of disk space then it
keep filling the disk even more with "deferred

I formerly had a gentoo box with a 4x250GB software RAID5, no LVM,
ext3 filesystem, using disks sdc,sdd,sde and sdf. sda and sdb were the

I was to move the RAID over to a new machine running debian. Further
to this, my backup of the data turned out to be only partial.

I don't know how to answer your question inside Sendmail.
I would opt for a (simple and dirty) solution outside of Sendmail using a
milter script in Perl that checks disk space and returns a "service
