Nice! Finally got this to work. It took me a while to realize that you
really did mean "localhost" on minotaur -- i.e., something like
ssh <username>@cvs.apache.org -L 109:localhost:110 -L 24:localhost:25
Sure. Though you don't need to use different ports. This would work
fine:
ssh <username>@cvs.apache.org -L 110:localhost:110 -L 25:localhost:25
Yes, I changed the ports to avoid conflict with sendmail running locally.
Or if you're not able to bind to ports < 1024 because you're on a Unix box
and not running as root,
ssh <username>@cvs.apache.org -L 1110:localhost:110 -L 1025:localhost:25
or something.
One more question: are there guidelines anywhere on when to use
@apache.com email addresses?
Don't ever use @apache.com. ;)
Ouch! (yet another reason not to munge the headers...)
I have never used mine and would expect to use it only to subsribe to
lists such as this, which is in fact what led to this question. I am not
a PMC or ASF member, so I would never really be in a position to
officially represent apache. Is there a policy on this?
Not really, but it has generally appeared to be used rarely; only a few
people I know use that as their primary email identity. If you're
speaking to others about something Apache-related from your @apache.org
address, it might be a good idea to have a sig that mentions you're not
speaking FOR the ASF, or something.
Thanks for the clarification.
I will submit a patch to newbie.faq summarizing responses to this
question and providing at least linux - mozilla instructions for setting
up tunnelling, as well as filling in the missing bit on how to set up
.forward. I assume from the discussion above, however, that tunnelling
is entirely optional.
Thanks, that would be appreciated. And yes, if you can successfully set
an arbitrary From: header from your mailer, you don't need to tunnel.
Though, this may change in the future: there is at least one proposal for
an anti-spam technique that would allow us to state that there were only
certain IP addresses that could send mail that claimed to be From: an
@apache.org address, in an attempt to prevent forged spam. But I'm sure
the infrastructure team would make a lot of noise before doing that.
Got it. Thanks again. I will submit a patch this weekend at the latest.
