Hello community :)
Need some help. But first, my boring story.
I've been using 9front for about 5 years and it's my primary OS, even at
work (I 'vncv' other laptops when I need something 9front can't afford).
I'm absolutely not a programmer or anything, just a very low level IT
working in education.
Like said in the meme from "the office", "I understand NOTHING" from the
emails I read everyday from the 9front community, but I read them anyway
and learn things sometimes and I am very grateful for that.
I like 9front the way it is and don't and won't never add or substract
anything from it.
I use zuke for music (thanks Sigrid), Mail for email, IRC to chat with
friends.
Acme and Sam, of course and Sigrid's ext4srv to connect to my second
harddrive (linux) on a lenovo x230 I carry everywhere with the most ugly
tplink wifi module scratched on it with velcro (I'm not good enough to
install firmwares).
For like 2 or 3 years, I was unable to send emails from 9front for 2
reasons. First, Runbox (my email provider) doesn't use imap.runbox.com and
smtp.runbox.com but only mail.runbox.com and the sha key is the same for
imap and smtp (so no error message the first time you send an email).
Secondo, Runbox doesn't allow aliases for the sender and force the use of
the primary email. Using the "From: myrealaddress" at the beginning of the
email did the trick.
I didn't try to modify remotemail or anything, just because I didn't need
to (If it ain't broken, don't fix it) and didn't unterstood why I should.
But now, it doesn't work anymore (see the screenshot). I guess it's because
the From:myrealaddress isn't catched by Runbox and the sender is perceived
as being Glenda.
I'm sure the solution is very simple, like just adding something to a conf
file to force the primary email and I hope someone will feel compassionate
enough to help.
Just to justify the fact that I'm not lazy but just incompetent, remember
me as plan6, the guy who "copy-pasted" 900 irc lines on cat-v a few months
ago (I just wanted to save the chat), or the one who asked why sysupdating
9front took hours (because I didn't allow scrolling in the terminal).
Anyway, thanks for reading. I am really proud and happy to be part of the
9front community, even if I'm on the periphery.
