Re: Yahoo slow?
Hi, I used the e-mail provider GMX for almost a week now and must say that I'm very satisfied. Thanks for the tip. As I want to have the ability to send and receive large e-mails (with attachments) I'm considering to take an GMXPro account. Can you recommend this?. It's certainly not very expensive.

This was intentionally, as meanwhile software do not need this anymore for there being other ways of mail storing that avoid this. Nevertheless there're still some older systems, and upgrading is a very money and time expensive thing. TF Is it so expensive, though? In fact it is. You can't take normal PC hardware and build up your server. OK, surely, you can. But that's not what GMX needs for a reliable mail server. You'll need some HA [1] components, build up with redundancies and a lot of server optimized other components. E.g. an Intel Xeon processor instead of your normal P-III as it offers some features that are important for a fast service (like bigger L1-Cache, faster connected to the CPU itself, etc ...). A hardware RAID, reliable and stable fast NIC's, a lot of RAM, etc... This all in pure hardware does cost more than about 5000-1000 US$. Add the software side, and don't calculate only initial cost for buying, but also installation time, administration, configuration to fit in the existing model and you're at 20-30k US$ for a _real_ server. TF GMX does add the character into mails received via my pro-account. :-( That's a reason to write to them. It may be critical for you to verify signatures and they make this quite impossible with this insert. So _you_ as a aping customer are in a situation to give them hard facts why this have to be changed. What shall a non-paying user tell them? I don't like it? It destroys PGP-signatures and they are important to me? For critical issues I don't rely on a cost-free service, so this is not an argument. But if _you_ ask them to fulfill the service they prove, and that includes 'not alteration of e-mails but receiving and delivering to you as they came in' you can have success (If they care about not loosing a paying customer *g*) :-))) [1] High Availability -- Regards Peter Palmreuthermailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (The Bat! v1.54 Beta/14 on Windows NT 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 1) Humans: Bet you can't eat just one. -- Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Vers: 1.53d FAQ: http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hello Thomas! On 10 Dec 2001 at 05:12:17 you wrote: Note the past tense. Could have been something to do with Peter not as conversant in English than you? Phew, nice construction, ain't it. Seriously, there are still people out there using software needing this. So, the past tense doesn't really come into the equation. It is more a question of priorities in supporting it or not, a decision a company like GMX might not be making, as the y may nit realize there is something to decide. Is it so expensive, though? Regardless of how great the actual costs are: Yes. Everything that costs something is in company terms expensive - as long as there is a cheaper alternative. The old mail servers of GMX are still good and running, so it would be expensive to change them. Related to that are two other things, the manpower needed and the inconveniences for GMX customers. Remember 12 months ago when the had a major overhaul of there hardware structure. Lots of people (incl. me) had problems connecting and getting mail for some weeks. During this period many customers became ex-customers recommending *not* to use GMX. One of my brothers was one of them. GMX does add the character into mails received via my pro-account. :-( Hey, you are a paying customer ... But I concur with Peter's statement - - and find it really annoying that he is in the wrong - that PRO accounts should use the newer servers. Yhey do change the contents of my mail. IMHO it is not acceptable in any case (free or not). You are right if there wasn't a technical reason for it. Sadly there was (and may still be). So historically some severs still alter the message, which I too find wrong. Much more I don't like the way GMX deals with customer'S requests not just on this topic.

Hello Allie, On 10 Dec 2001 at 19:19:38 you wrote (at least in part): ACM They could very well be right. It could be one of the intermediate ACM servers that is altering the message content. You could take a look at ACM your message headers to see how many servers are involved in getting ACM your gmx based messages to you. No. That's plainly wrong. The only one altering a message in this manner is the last server storing the message. As long as this message is not stored in a MBOX format file it is not altered this way. This insert is only done by a server that stores the message in a MBOX file for being able to retrieved via POP3 or IMAP. This insert is done for the POP-toaster (or IMAP-Server) to be able to recognize this 'From' starting line is _not_ the beginning of a new message. In MBOX files a new message is recognized by a line starting 'From ', therefore a 'From ' line within the message is escaped with this annoying ''. While the mail is transported via SMTP it is not necessary to escape this line as SMTP describes the end of a message as 'Newline.Newline' and therefore only lines containing only a singel dot, but belonging to message body are _temporarily_ escaped, but you won't recognize this as this is undone when arriving the last SMTP. The only way how GMX would not be the culprit were if they get the mail via UUCP from a host where the mail already was stored in a MBOX file. -- Regards Peter Palmreuthermailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (The Bat! v1.54 Beta/15 on Windows NT 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 2) C: A real language for real programmers. -- Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Vers: 1.53d FAQ: http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com

Yahoo slow?
Hi, I'm using, as you see, Yahoo for my email. I have never any problems with it. In the past I used Hotmail which is really s..t. When I post a message to this list then it takes a while (an hour or sometimes two days) to see my posting appearing in the list. Sometimes I receive the replies much earlier. Strange. Some say that this is a problem of Yahoo. But what if I never experienced this problem in other lists?. Is it really Yahoo or could the problem be at the side of this list? If you can convince me that Yahoo is the problem then I will search for another email service. In that case: which do you suggest? Thanks. -- Marc van Breemen [EMAIL PROTECTED] _ Do You Yahoo!?

If you give us a sample of one of the delayed message's headers we'd be more able to tell where the problem lies i.e. where the delay took place. I'm quite sure there's nothing wrong from the list side since I get back messages that I posted, usually within a minute or two. I have had problems with my Yahoo POP account and this is why I stopped using it. I find each persons mileage varies. If you wish to try another, I'd suggest a gmx.net account. I've been using it without problems for some time now. -- | ©Allie Martin - Moderator o|--- | TB! v1.54 Beta/15 Win2K SP 2 PGPKey - mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?Subject=PGPPubKey1 __ -- Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Vers: 1.53d FAQ: http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com
