1- I figured you would want to know that you had sites listed that garnome
was trying to use that actually do not work.  I noticed how you changed the
URL name used rather than testing the URL's I was pointing out are broken.
Someone using the DNS rotor will hit these broken URL's unless they are
removed from the rotor.   And I see they are still broken.  This is for
garnome-2.20.3.

2- I even tested these URL's via megaproxy.com to verify that it's not just
me or my ISP and I see they are broken coming in through megaproxy.com as
well:

*AN ERROR HAS OCCURRED WHILE PROCESSING YOUR REQUEST:*

*http://mir1.ovh.net/docbook/docbook-xsl-1.72.0.tar.bz2*

*PLEASE NOTE THE ERROR DETAILS BELOW:*

*HTTP error code: Not found*

Please check your spelling. This website may also have moved, shut down, or
been restricted by the
Megaproxy™ introductory service.

3- As for the please send text emails - welcome to 2008.  USENET is and was
very 1992.  I signed up for a MAILING LIST and according to gmail, "we
recommend using 'UTF-8' (Unicode) for all outgoing mail. UTF-8 is a standard
encoding that's accepted by many email clients."  USENET is a joke.  I even
had my own USENET news group for myself (alt.fan.brad.allison) .  That's how
much USENET is a joke.  In todays world USENET is a place for downloading
porn.  That's it.  But again, I signed up for a MAILING LIST and assume the
other people on the MAILING LIST are reading email via a email client.

I'll be switching emails and dropping off this list now.  The lack of MacOSX
support seems a bit hopeless here.  I was only trying to build evolution so
I could view my exchange calendar without having to use outlook, but given
the MacOSX support here, that does not seem to be an option.
