Re[2]: Attaching .css file

2001-08-06 Thread Ray Vermey

 hi Krzysztof,

 I  don't know if this has been discussed before, but it's impossible
 do  attach  a  .css file to a message.

 yes, it has been discussed before and even reported as a bug AFAIK.
 it was already a problem in 1.53 where .css (and in my case .xml) files were not 
treated
 as attachments, but became part of the message text !! there was no way to save them
 except cutting/pasting through an editor ...

Hello Avenarius,

On Friday, August 03, 2001 at 7:24:01 AM you wrote (at least in part):

A So, Yahoo and Kiwwi passed this test, while GMX, Host, and the mail
A server I actually pay for failed it.

I'm sorry to tell you: they don't failed :-)
They did something that you (and maybe many others) don't like and don't
really understand, but what they did was something to prevent you from getting
splitted messages.
It's not really nice, even because it destroys a PGP-Signature, but it's
sometimes necessary :-(
What the final mail server does is storing the message in a MBOX.
The mbox-format is well documented and it tells:
A new mail in the mbox-file begins with a line
'^From email@domain Date_in_format_DOW_MONTH_DOM_TIME_YEAR$'

where '^' is a 'begin of line' and '$' is the 'end of line' in RegExp-Signs.
As an e-mail can be only a name, not including the '@' the mailservers that
'failed' in your opinion added the quotation mark in front of the 'From' to
prevent from reading the mbox-file and recognize two mails instead of one.
Mailservers that do not insert that '' store mails in a different format than
mbox, maybe 'Maildir' or even Database and do know where a new mail starts
form the kind of data storing, in other word: new dataset equals new mail, the
there's no space for a mistake at the 'From' line.
That's _one_ of the reasons why I prefer Maildir-format over MBOX and setup
all mailservers I'm responsible for with Maildir (as qmail supports it), but
nevertheless as this is something from _very_ old *nix times the insert of a
quotation sign is not a failure, as annyoing it is.

To Dierk: you wrote:
DH Not confirmed. I do have it sometimes, but not always. So it cannot be
DH GMX.

If GMX is the last mailserver in every mail you inspected, the only reason why
it sometimes was there and other tiems not could be: they're using different
storage types.
AFAIK GMX has more than one mail server and the only thing I can imagine of is
several of them use MBOX (so you have the '') and others don't so there's no
need of inserting it.
As all servers are hidden behind a load balancer one can not know or recall
which server _exactly_ stored the mail, so we cannot examine this finally, but
that's the only way I can try to explain why it does happen to some mails but
not all, if _all_ of them are finally delivered to GMX.

Agree totally with you. If there is a technical solution (and there
obviously is, as gmx uses qmail), and the problem still exists, then it's
an error from the user's point of view. Changing the body of a mail is a
total NONONO, and all my other providers manage to leave the body as I send
it.

 Those who need to add the  use outdated software. ;-)

Yes, and gmx even loses money with that, because of their reliability in
the last view months I wanted to subscribe to their service. Not because I
need the additional features, just to support them.

BTW: In my tests the  is _always_ inserted when sending mails via gmx to
gmx. And: The problem is not a 'artificial' one, it occurs on every
forwarded message.

TF No. If it were necessary, then all of us should receive the additional

As I tried to explain: software that's only capable of storing in mbox-format
needs it, other software (if configured to store different than mbox) don't.
So it's not an 'All or Nobody'-task.

TF Those who need to add the  use outdated software. ;-)

Some don't call it outdated, but 'better performance', 'stable', 'well known',
'secure', 'well documented', 'easy to configure/handle', 'easy/save to
backup/restore', 'protection of investments', 'save for future, readable also
in 100 years (not proprietary and a dead horse in 2 year [like some document
formats ?!?])' ...

I don't want to discuss if they're all 's bad' to use 'so called outdated'
software or if it does make any sense, I don't want to be 'the bad boy' that
defends them for what they're doing, but I know 'bout the technical
backgrounds and know _I_ can't call is a bug, wrong or 'failed test' because I
know it's needed in their system.
I, for myself as a system administrator, try to avoid this problem by using
other software, that fit's our need too, but if there were any problems with
this software, like 'to slow', 'to heavy traffic to be handled by it' I'd
switch, even if it means to insert the quotation sign in the mail, because
it's quite 100 times better the user gets it's mail with a quotation where
it's not expected/written by original author, that he/she NEVER get's his/her
mail because the system was not able to able it for an absolute overload.

problem with jpg error with pointer in my folder = thought to be htmlrelated

2001-08-06 Thread Dwight A Corrin

I have been having trouble for some time with some of the emails from
Slate Magazine.  I get the jpg error, and when I hit ok, a few of the
messages display correctly, but most do the cascading violation
message until I kill TB! in the close program dialogue.

Until today, when TB! reopens, since the pointer in the all the
folders remembers where it was at on the last clean exit, the folder
where Slate messages go opens fine, pointing to some relatively
correctly behaving message.

Well, this morning, the pointer is on a message which crashes TB! as
soon as one opens the folder.

Is there a way to get that pointer to highlite a different message, or
delete the offending message without opening the folder, or do I have
to wait for the next Beta to finally be released and hope that bug if
fixed?

And isn't a new beta about due??

In today's world, software is outdated very quickly. I'm not trying to
execute you, but I can tell you what is the latest today is most
likely completely outdated in 2 years. Others say, in half a year.
Never mind whether you know the technical details why the earlier
version did something (or required you to do something) undesirable.
Let's not start tio defend the shortcomings of early computing days,
