Re: Mozila Thunderbird and local mail
Is it possible to use Mozilla Thunderbird email client to receive from your local /var/mail/username like kmail/evolution/sylpheed can? Or does one have to use procmail to deliver them into thunderbird's directory? I don't think Thunderbird-0.3 has support for movemail accounts, but the next release should. I've looked at Mozilla 1.6a, and it does have movemail support. That was the word I was looking for. After searching google, it seems that Thunderbird does have it, although not accessible from gui setup. Here's the website (with warnings!): http://www.mozilla.org/mailnews/ movemail/ Instructions: Since there is no UI to set up a new movemail account, you have to either: 1) set it up internal movemail in 4.x and migrate that profile to mozilla or 2a) in mozilla create a pop account 2b) exit, edit prefs.js and change the server type from pop3 to movemail. Example, change user_pref(mail.server.server6.type, pop3); to user_pref(mail.server.server6.type, movemail); 2c) start back up. -- I changed and loaded up my thunderbird again. Unfortunately another error popped up: --- Unable to create lock file /var/mail/navigator.lock. For movemail to work, it is necessary to create lock files in the mail spool directory. On many systems, this is best accomplished by making the spool directory be mode 01777. --- Now I am searching for more information on this to try on my freebsd/ postfix setup. If anyone knows what this means and what I need to do, please do let me know.

Top
Hello, I have not been able to get wmtop working (it installs just fine, but no output, the screen is just blank and shows no activities). I also found gkrelltop2, but haven't been able to get it working either. Same blank screen. I can't pinpoint the problem. Has anyone been able to get either working? Another idea I had was similar to xrootconsole/roottail for printing out logs on root window, but in this one I would like to run top on my root window (so that it is viewable on all workspaces). Is that possible? Let me know if it is possible or that there is such program/script or that I am out of my mind. :) Best regards, Jonas ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Gstreamer-plugins - update
Update - I forgot to do a backtrace and I was able to find out that it was the avifile that was causing the gst-register (for gstreamer-plugins) to crash at end of installation. After uninstalling avifile, gstreamer-plugins installed just fine. Who should I send this bug report to? To portmaintainer or to gstreamer developers?

Xine/Mplayer
Hello, Whenever I play a video with either program and the video ends, it correclty closed the window automatically, but my cpu goes crazy. I had to kill -9 them. I don't know what it is called so I can search on google. I want to look for what is causing that so I can compile them without certain options (i.e., arts, aalib, libungif, etc.). I want to see if it is the options or the program itself that is causing high cpu. Is there a way I can get the output and examine them? Running them from console doesn't show anything. It just refuses to return to prompt. Thanks! Jonas ___ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: Mldonkey/xmule
Yeah, I checked that out, to no success. :( I will use the forum, thank you for your help. I am not using the firewall now, but will try that if I don't get it working soon. As the last time I got it running on my old computer, I didn't touch the default settings and mldonkey connected to servers with no problem. Now, with a new computer and fresh installation of 5.1, I cannot get it connected to servers. I can see that it tries to connect, but kept getting timed out or lose connection. Thanks anyway!

Sending logs by mail locally
Hello, Now I am able to use fetchmail/procmail/postfix to send/receive emails from external server on internet. However, I have some scripts and cron jobs that send mails to root, which in /etc/aliases I have set up to send to me as the sole user of this computer. /etc/aliases (among other things by default) root: manalive I have not been able to verify whether mails are being sent locally as I am not receiving anything at root or at my user account. /var/log/maillog doesn't say anything. I must have missed a configuration somewhere where I can set up so I can mail locally. Any advices?

Postfix/procmail/fetchmail/spamassassin setup
Hello, I am having terrible time trying to figure out why I can't get any emails. I used to be able to receive them before, but since reinstalling FreeBSD (new harddrive), I am not able to get any emails again. I am using FreeBSD 5.1 - standalone computer with me as the sole user. With postfix, I want to use fetchmail to fetch mails and procmail to deliver them and spamassassin to examine them. I want the procmail/postfix to send them to /var/mail/manalive. Here are the configurations (username/password changed of course :) ) and let me know where I am doing wrong. There is no procmail.log file. I have stopped, started, and reloaded the postfix after configuring. Any other configurations you need to see, please let me know! Thanks!

Re: Postfix/procmail/fetchmail/spamassassin setup
could you please verfiy your postfix configuration using `postfix check'? Perhaps this will show some errors. No errors. Other hints: Check /var/log/maillog (and post some lines from the tail if you still can fix your problem). A'ha! What do I do here to fix this?
