Fwd: Thawte PGP Support
This is a forwarded message From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Friday, August 04, 2000, 3:33:30 AM Subject: Thawte PGP Support ===8==Original message text=== Hi, * This is an official Thawte Personal Certificate Announcement for all our customers using PGP * We would like to inform all of Thawte's PGP users that we will soon be discontinuing our support of PGP. We are in the process of making changes to our signing engines, and as of 1 September 2000, we will be converting to new systems. These changes will result in us no longer being able to sign PGP keys for our users. The discontinuation of this system will in no way affect the validity of your keys and the Thawte signatures on your keys will remain valid. For those of you who have had your identities verified for the Thawte Web of Trust, your points will remain and you are invited to obtain personal x.509 certificates which carry your name. Between now and 1 september, please feel free to get any keys that you might have, signed by Thawte. In the past we have attempted to keep up to date with our support of newer releases of PGP, but have not always managed to achieve this with the effectiveness that is commonly associated with other Thawte services. We still believe, however, that PGP is an excellent personal encryption tool, and this decision should in no way be interpreted as an indication of our confidence in PGP. If you have any questions or comments on this announcement, please feel free to contact me at your earliest convenience.

Re[2]: Filter problems
Aye Ming-Li! On Thursday, August 03, 2000 at 14:37:52 GMT -0700 (which was 2:37 PM where you think I live) [EMAIL PROTECTED] typed: ML Hi phil, I made a "Catch All Filter" for my personal use like this. ML [example snipped] ML Thanks, phil. If you read through the thread, however, you would ML find the problem I (or Marek) have isn't to come up with a perfect ML filter condition (string) that would catch all. The problem is, I ML have some "munual" filters that I don't want to run when I ML *re-filter* a folder. Marck suggested using a "catch-all" filter ML between automatic filters and manual filters as a "stop point", ML which I think is a good idea. Nevertheless, a catch-all filter has ML to move messages somewhere, and I don't want messages (that fall ML into the "catch-all" category) moved at all when I re-filter a ML folder. Hence the problem. ML Thanks anyway. I follow ya. Yeah I don't see how that can be done except maybe moving the messages's twice maybe to a temp holding folder, then move them back to the original folder, but then you'd probably have to manually filter it twice. -- ...

Am I p getting through to the list again? MDP Hey! Welcome back Phil! Mind you, just because I can see it, doesn't MDP mean you can. Of course you can - you just replied to Ming-Li. Alright! Yeah. ;o) Well since I got back on, and since I have you attention. I ran across something weird. I was talking to someone who was helping me out with a website. his mail program X-mailer showed Mozilla 4.7 [en]C-CCK-MCD NSCPCD47 (Win95; I) I know the CCK part means someone was tweaking on their browser, since, "CCK" means "Netscape Client Customization Kit Version 4.7" The weird thing is that when I tried to reply to him, nothing was quoted at all. I am assuming (maybe wrongly) that he has the "Send messages in HTML" box checked. In order to reply to him I had to resend the message (Forward) to myself and then nitpick the parts I wanted to quote manually actually it was formatted all screwed up and it is by far the worst email I have ever had to reply to in my entire life of email-ing. I told him how to edit his settings and send only Text out to me, but I wonder if the message wasn't a bug, ie. that I couldn't quote it back to him without processing it, and doing a lot of extra work. Normally I'd delete an HTML, but this is from someone who I am interested in what he has to say. And considering that were beta testing, I thought it was important. No joke. No quoting at all whatsoever. Hit reply and nothing at all. Just like I have a new message with everything he said removed. Kinda made me mad at first, because I knew that meant I had to totally re-edit what he sent. Sure... cut n paste was the solution, but should a message be that much trouble--I didn't think so. I can post the message, but it will show up normally after it's forwarded. I only hope the guy takes my suggestions and sends in both HTML and Plain TEXT. Anyway. looks like I've had some bad luck with mail lately ;o) -- ...

Re[2]: S/MIME encryption problems
I need to have ***ALL*** these questions answered History: In order to impliment S/MIME It was my understanding that all one had to do was browse to thawte, apply for a key, export it from the browser to a file called pfx.pfx Import pfx.pfx to the VCard, Create a new contact(ie. you) under TRUSTED ROOT CA and the universe S/MIME should be in harmony. Comment: a pipe dream? - I am not blind, I have eyes, I tweak on things and I try different options out and FIND what I need. I don't ever ask for help on ANYTHING I keep trying and find it, but if it AINT THERE It AINT my fault. Terms are being thrown out that have no definition[s] (unless you PRESS someone), Thawte says one thing, Apache Server says another, Tiny Webserver yet says another, the Tutorial on that website says another, folks on the list say yet another, Rit says another. I hear from Nick (thanks for the help BTW), there's a Private Key Box? Where? not in my Address book or the VCard I hear there are some KEY ICONS, (not in my Address book or the Vcard) So Where are they? There is No KEY ICONS (not in my Address book or the Vcard) What is the Create CSR button for? Does the Create CSR button work? Does the Create CSR button do anything at all except sit there doing nothing? Is it Broken if you hit it and you have a Certificate Highlighted in there and nothing happens? How many LINES are in the box when you import your certificate? Three Lines for ea imported Certificate?

I read the tutorial. The tutorial is for what Operating System--Win2k? none of the pictures in those boxes match my system. They mention Advanced Radio Buttons in MSIE. Where? There Are only THREE Buttons in MSIE ( I stated this earlier one of the three is PERSONAL Certificates) An ADVANCED BUTTON? WHERE PFX, .P12 Blah - WHAT IS THE *EXACT NAME* THAT THE EXPORTED FROM MSIE4 FILE SHOULD BE CALLED ANYWAY? WHAT ABOUT IN NETSCAPE? WHERE SHOULD THAT FILE BE STORED? *EXACTLY WHERE?* Can I store it on a CD for a year until it expires and then DELETE MSE4 that I used to get the Certificate with? Would the key look the same exported from netscape as it would from MSIE? No / YES? WHY? CAN I REMOVE IE4. EVER? I was told there would be Beta/13. I wasn't told 145sm would come out. I wasn't told specifically NOT to use it. WILL THERE NOW BE a B/13? Should I be waiting for beta 13? Is there just No possible way to import these Certificates on a Windows 98 (original) system with IE4? Is something being overlooked which is specific to my setup? Do I have to have an original stock Path to Thebat's HOME directory? ie. (C:\Program Files\Thebat!\Thebat.exe as opposed to i:\mail\0\mail\new\thebat\thebat.exe or i:\mail\0\mail\thebat\thebat.exe) ? Netscape 4.73 (128 bit) - HAS NO EXPORT button. Netscape 3.0X Does, but the File won't import. Why? The Certificates I generated via the webserver[s] (that's PLURAL!) time out in 21 days. They were invalid, and could not be imported. Why? Apparently these keys are not Free either! Why suggest we get them if they are not free? Somewhere(earlier on) I heard that you had to import the keys into the PGP Key Manager... Where did that thread go? Why would we want to do that?

What does my PGP KEY Manager have to do with S/MIME Anyway? Nothing? Everything? Anything? Obviously from my Taglines I originally had a 98 (original), not SE, and then 98lite, and then I ran ROM II on it which totally yanks out IE and I put win95 shell in (Three files), Then for purposes of getting a certificate I installed IE4. Could my OS have something to do with this? Can the Modifications have something to do with it? Regarding Thawte: Does JAVA have anything to do with it? Cookies? Active-X?

Re[2]: S/MIME encryption problems
p I hear from Nick (thanks for the help BTW), there's a Private Key p Box? Where? not in my Address book or the VCard LG I believe the private key box is the one mentioned in the step where LG you are exporting the key from the browser. heh, the only dialog I had was asking for a password and a filename. p I hear there are some KEY ICONS, (not in my Address book or the p Vcard) So Where are they? LG Account Properties/Edit Personal VCard/Certificates tab LG See the attached key.jpg to see what it is supposed to look like (Top LG entry) I do not have those keys, I have the icon behind those keys, but not the key superimposed on it. see snap4.jpg (vCard), and snap3.jpg(address entry) p The tutorial is for what Operating System--Win2k? LG Worked flawlessly for me under Win98SE p none of the pictures in those boxes match my system. LG To be honest, I didn't even really look at the pics, just followed the LG text. p They mention Advanced Radio Buttons in MSIE. Where? LG Tools/Internet Options/Content tab. Middle right side. There is NO TOOLS PERIOD. There is VIEW | Internet Options | snap.jpg Three buttons like I said. Personal; Authorities; Publishers. Click on Personal and snap1.jpg is what you get. p There Are only THREE Buttons in MSIE ( I stated this earlier one of How else can I explain by not having a picture. p the three is PERSONAL Certificates) LG On the above mentioned tab, I've got five buttons. LG Import, Export, Remove, Advanced, and View See Attached snap1.jpg I also would like to note that I had been asked to send my KEY to RIT, and then revoke my key, however as you can see there is NO POSSIBLE WAY FOR ME TO REMOVE CERTIFICATES. Snap1.jpg So, to keep testing, I will have a box full of indistinguishable revoked Certificates. Right now there are only two and I have the footprint of the good one. p PFX, .P12 Blah - WHAT IS THE *EXACT NAME* THAT THE EXPORTED p FROM MSIE4 FILE SHOULD BE CALLED ANYWAY? LG Mine saved to a .pfx Yeah, i typed in pfx, and it saved to pfx.pfx p CAN I REMOVE IE4. EVER? LG Darn good question. Seems like so much web stuff relies on IE LG nowadays. I meant in regards to this certificate thing, I have no need for IE other than this certificate deal. I do no use software that requires IE. I just don't use it period. p Is there just No possible way to import these Certificates on a p Windows 98 (original) system with IE4? LG Now, here's whereI think your problem lies. You might need to do this LG with IE5. I can't prove this, unless someone else has IE4 installed, LG but the tutorial matched my IE5 stuff under Win98SE just fine. Man, that's a 70MB download isn't it? p Apparently these keys are not Free either! Why suggest we get them if p they are not free? LG The certificate I got from Thawte is free, and I've gotten multiple LG ones for multiple addresses. Maybe you mean the server certificates. LG That I don't know about. did you Try to get a certificate for Tiny Web like Max suggested I do? I got the certificate. It is only good for 21 days. A trial. p Somewhere(earlier on) I heard that you had to import the keys into p the PGP Key Manager... Where did that thread go? Why would we p want to do that? (Actually I was able to get a "Webserver p Certificate" Imported into the PGP Key Manager, and then there was p an error when connecting to MIT and importing Thawte's Pgp Keys.

LG Yes, I did import my certificate into PGP keys. It went as expected, LG and serves as a signing of that key.

TJ Which version of TheBat did you try to run? The bat v1.44, Linux Mandrake 7.0 (air), wine version 991212. (logged on as root for the moment... ) I was finally able to send a message, but I can't physically see what I was typing. And I have to put it in the outbox, then send "queued mail" I tried changing the Language, and the character sets but nothing helped. It's also interesting to note that the cookies file failed because the "\" is replaced with "/" in linux, So I made another account, and pointed it to the same folder, and I *can* access all the mail (the headers at least.) I think I still have a path problem. My windows isn't on C: and it isn't in \windows and the other thing is my bat isn't in \The Bat either, it's under \mail\0\thebat and then my accounts aren't where they are supposed to be either, they are under \mail\account name LOL so maybe it's time to backup and reinstall the bat from a stock distro. With the stock paths. However, reinstalling windows on another drive like C: isn't an option. (got to much tied up in that and I don't want to waste 3 days.) I can't see what is actually typed in the messages. I can't get a black text and a white background working correctly, maybe it's white on white, except I can see the "" quotes and all 1st letters on the beginning of each line, so I am hesitant to believe that it may be a white on white problem just yet . Also, I can't save the new account I created to access the mail with. So each time That I test this out, I have to create a new account. (not a big problem though) I also noticed that if I queue some text, like say when your going to cut n paste, I can read one letter at a time inside the message. It's difficult, but possible to read a message this way. Also I get big time lockups on certain messages. Where wine or the bat or something stops responding altogether, but a CTRL-C in the Terminal solves that problem. It's a slightly nasty problem. It's probably hard for folks to visualize what Im saying about the invisible text, but it looks like this (pretend this is a message your reading): - The Message Example - H t c i - - The Message Example - See there is nothing in the message, except the first character on the beginning of each new line. You can imagine typing a message without seeing what you type. That's how I sent that other message. It did send though, that's a good thing! BUT.. I will say this, it's a start! Since I couldn't get this far at all before. It definitely shows sign's of hope. And my next hump is to try to figure out why there is no text (I mean only some) showing. BTW- I am using the 3dFX server for my 3DFX Voodoo 3 2000 card, maybe that has something to do with it. thanks for the help, I think that wine.conf I had downloaded was doing just the same, but I went ahead and edited yours and replaced my /.winerc and /etc/wine.conf with the new edited ones.

Re[2]: Tearline problem -- enter when using PGP maybe?
CS I have not been using %SIGNCOMPLETE because I could never get it CS to work in any beta I have tryied (1.40 up). I would appreciate CS any input as to how to get this to work in my templates on list or CS privately. CS I manually sign with Hotkeys Crtl+Shift+S. snip ... snip CS Below is my current reply template: %quotes="%SETPATTREGEXP=""(?is)(.*^-BEGIN PGP SIGNED.*?\n(Hash:.*?\n)?\s*)?(.*?)(^(- --\s*\n|_{40,}\s*\n|-BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE)|\z)""%REGEXPBLINDMATCH=""%text""%SUBPATT=""3""" %Cursor %FROMNAME -- The Bat! - automatic mail servant of %FROMNAME. The BAT! ver. %THEBATVERSION %WINDOWSPLATFORMNAME %WINDOWSMAJORVERSION.%WINDOWSMINORVERSION build %WINDOWSBUILDNUMBER %WINDOWSCSDVERSION %PUT="D:\Program Files\The Bat!\MAIL\chuckoss\signature.txt" %SIGNCOMPLETE ^^^ Just put %SIGNCOMPLETE after \signature.txt" But remember It will PGP sign every message after that. You can always use Privacy | Sign When completed to counter signing the current message. ie. those messages you don't want to sign. (I Hope format doesn't get mashed on the way back, other wise I'll be looking pretty dumb about now.) CS I have tried the quotes macros shown in this thread but have yet to CS get them to show any results. The quote macros are for quoting (without the PGP added material), to an existing message that has been pgp signed, The %SIGNCOMPLETE command is a separate command to sign using pgp when you hit send. I think, you probably already understand. But since you asked, I decided to reply to you on the list (I don't see your personal email) Now that I have several examples to play with I may start experimenting with REGEXP a little bit myself. Knowing only Basic, it's pretty cryptic looking to me, but I bet I can fight my way through learning some of it, since Peter, and others have provided several different examples. Just looking at the help files alone I got frustrated and decided to just ask Peter for a macro. I hope there will be more examples posted one day in the future. If I can change one letter in an example and See results that helps me learn the language. If it helps me, I know it's helping someone else out there. -- 1.42 Beta/16 S/N 124BE29E Personal Edition -- -- View the TBBETA archive at http://tbbeta.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double-click HERE: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBBETA, double-click HERE: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org

Re[2]: Tearline problem -- enter when using PGP maybe?
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- MDP This is *definitely* the problem with tear-lines. Okay, it's gone. Removed even. I hate it when I spend time thinking out how I want the template / tearlines and little jingles, then someone comes along and says it's screwed up. Then I start removing whatever the hell it is they want out and IMO the message looks like crap. I never remember EVER having so many problems with my tearlines in any ML any fidonet echo, any netmail in any network, than both of thebat Maillist's Chuck Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Online Structural Services) MDP (also uses PGP signing) correct, and the only reason nobody tell's him it's screwed up, is Take a look at his breaks, the same problem. Now why would I want to remove pgp, which proves I am who I say I am? I in fact can test, and tell you for sure that Chuck Smith's message comes from Chuck Smith. MDP Which is a fair enough point. Okay. Thanks, I know I'm not crazy. If you say it's wasting bandwidth, you got to be kidding me. it's only adding a few lines, that one day might eliminate confusion. Besides I used to run a bbs for several years, and the bandwidth argument doesn't cut it these days. MDP Not at the level of a few lines of signature, for sure, but at other MDP levels - like sending GIFs and JPGs and (spit, spit) HTML mail g. MDP Don't forget that bandwidth is *always* an issue where calls are MDP charged per-minute - which is almost everywhere but the US. I'd have to disagree, once in awhile a jpg snapshot of a desktop can be worth thousands of words. But, I always try to optimize the picture down from the original bloated size before I let it rip. I will in fact remove them if everyone wants me to, but I'll tell you what, let's see---is there a potential bug here first? MDP No bug - no problem. The bug is probably in PGP ISFA it is disrupting MDP the tear-line. Well, how was that message without the -- enter ? Did it conform to everyone? I really need an answer to this. Did it screw up anyone's setup? filters? macros? Tom? This very message has it removed altogether. I wonder if that will cause it's own set of problems. Do let me know. MDP No problems for me - I just cut the bits I don't want to quote. :-) That isn't what I was asking. I asked about that specific last message that had the -- enter removed. -- 1.42 Beta/16 -- -- View the TBBETA archive at http://tbbeta.thebat.dutaint.com To send a message to the list moderation team double-click HERE: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe from TBBETA, double-click HERE: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- You are subscribed as : archive@jab.org
Re[2]: Tearline problem -- enter when using PGP maybe?
TB There is a way to get round it however. Highlight the main text of TB your message, not your signature, and then just sign the block as I TB have done here. That preserves the integrity of the delimiter. Right, I am aware of that method. It's in effect editing twice. Bluewave used to shell similar to that. However, since there exists a macro In TB's Templates setup menu that can be selected, I selected it. therefore, my point is that it shouldn't be bothering anyone. As you can see I have totally nuked my templates again.

amazing
To: this Alex Person on [EMAIL PROTECTED] This is amazing how you argue this point to the grave - yet don't even use the bat? How come I wonder? Who are you exactly? What would be your true motivation. Mr SPAM hater? I dont think so there are plenty of other resources than you surely. Personally I don't like spam either. But, until every admin puts forth and actively participates in a security program this is not a reality. I see you have a nice website about Math. If your into math, why you so interested in thebat I wonder? I see you into nearly every single message. Are you co-author of thebat? Have you purchased a copy? I mean really man. Why? I really need to know. Just paraphrase why your so interested in EVERY aspect of it, I'll shut up. Sorry, Back to the war-story here I would like to have multi-SMTP servers. And maybe I did BUY thebat? So now actually your vote has been canceled by my opposition to yours. Why would I wish to use Mercury after I paid 40 bucks for thebat? heh heh really. I don't see the reasoning. If this were the case I would use a PM + mercury setup and press on with life. You come here and say, "you shouldn't do that." where do you get off? If the admin cares about the server logs, if they really cared about an "open server" exploit, they would patch it, install sendmail or something. who cares about a blacklist. That isn't the point either. It sounds like you don't want free speech, privacy etc. That's the message I get daily from your suggestions. Maybe someone wants that OPEN server to send anonymail legit. With your logic that can't happen. The bat is a non-problem, the OPEN SERVER IS!!! (if the admin considers that a problem) Yeah, I would LOVE to see multi SMPT's. I respect your right to disagree. === Quoted for no reason I guess. Well maybe.. === Because there is no sense in doing so; because it means that the server logs will get overfilled with "connection unsuccessful" entries -- and your postmaster won't be grateful to you for all that crap _you_ generated; because it means that The Bat! will eventually become the *favourite* tool of _spammers_, which is the worst advertisement one can only think of; finally because the fact that your open relay SMTP server, provided that it's not blacklisted yet, will _get_blacklisted_ in a short time, and you'll loss this functionality anyhow. Enough? If that's not enough, I'll pretend to be Steve Lamb and say "Do Not Do It! It's against the way it is _supposed_ to work!" There exist tools that *do it in the _right_ way*! Goto www.let.rug.nl/pegasus. Download Mercury/32 (it's free). Install and setup it the way _you_ wish. Set TB up to use Mercury as your SMTP server. That's _all_. What can be more simple?
