Let me say at the start of this that the install was very very easy and I was up and
running right away and connected to internet and sending messages.
My only disappointment is with the failure of kmail, an apparently integral part of
KDE.

I received and sent mail via Kmail for several weeks.
Now I only receive.
When I send (or send queued ) the msg comes up that it's being sent, then quickly
disappears. The msg is still in the outbox. It is not in the sent-mail box.
I've compared the Kmail settings with the settings
I've just read in two messages which need to be shifted t o the side to be read.
Just wondering what email program you are using and what the word-wrap (if any)
is set at. Mine is 80

My /etc/fstab reads:
/mnt/floppy/ supermount fs=ext2,noauto,dev=/dev/fd0 0 0
I set the noauto as I prefer this.
I still must mount the floppy as root.

Alan - I asked several days ago if there is any dangers in using supermount and was
assured that there isn't any danger (at least for a single-user system).
Would you please explain why you say we should mount/umount the "old way"?
I'm using ext2 files.
thanks

I format my zip disks for linux with this command:
mke2fs /dev/sda4
My disk is in the drive, mounted on supermount.
The /etc/fstab entry for the zip must include ext2 for the file type.

Is there a danger in using the supermount feature for zip disks or floppy disks?
I thought from reading linux books that when we mount a floppy and insert a
disk into that drive, then access the disk, that when finished we need to umount
the disk, then mount again for the next disk, etc.

I tried the modprobe, no luck, so I reinstalled. This time just entered

Only other problem was that I needed to edit /etc/fstab to change the /mnt/zip

In editing the /etc/fstab I run across the term supermount.
My books don't describe this.
I want to set the zip and floppy drives so that a user as well as root can

Thanks for any info
