If you're worried about that then any email server is a risk, other than
your own.  Until recently, all email was sent as plain text over the
public Internet.  It was very easy to intercept.  Also, if you're
leaving email on a POP server for a period of time, it's going to be
there when someone comes looking for it.  If you really want security,
the answer is, as it has been for centuries, use encryption.  Many
people already do that with PGP or X.509 certificates.  Always assume
the "enemy" can eavesdrop on your communications, so protect the content
with encryption.

over to third parties without your knowledge, authorization, or consent.
US Law is clear that such email _can_ legally be turned over to third
parties, if certain specific conditions are met. It is extremely
difficult for IMAP users to be out of compliance with those specific
conditions. The irony here is that when the law was passed, not only was
the norm to be out of compliance, but the being in compliance with those

It is an email client, nothing more.  If you want replication, you're
going to need some means for all clients to sync.  An IMAP server does
precisely that.

Key exchange is simply a method of exchanging encryption keys.  I
mentioned this earlier in the context of directory servers.  However
those are not the same as syncing email over multiple devices and,
again, key exchange requires a server.

Yahoo has supported IMAP for a few years now.  Of course they're not the
only IMAP provider.

I guess you don't know much about the history of email.  Originally,
people read their email on the computer it was delivered to.  Then POP
allowed them to download to another computer, such as those new fangled
"PCs".  POP was never intended to be used by more than one device. 
Simply leaving a message on the server for a period of time, so that it
could be read on another device, was nothing more than a hack to get
around the limitations of POP.  What you're asking for is a complete
redesign of POP and you still won't have what IMAP is designed to do. 
Also, how is IMAP a security problem, given that the entire Internet is
not secure and mail servers are finally moving to StartTSL to encrypt
between servers.  I run my own IMAP server and access it only via SSL/TLS

2016-03-02 Thread Paul D. Mirowsky

What relates
Thunderbird is a database of information.  The fact that there is no 
data replication built in is not the inhibiting factor to doing so.


I have underlined the pertinent words from a quoted definition from the 
previously mentioned URL.


http://searchsqlserver.techtarget.com/definition/database-replication

*Database replication* is the frequent electronic copying data _from a 
__*database*__in __one computer__or server__to a __*database*__in 
another__so that all users share the same level of information._ The 
result is a distributed *database* in which users can access data 
relevant to their tasks without interfering with the work of others.

I believe it says "computer or server" not just server.

*Pretty Good Privacy* (*PGP*) is a data encryption 
 and decryption 
computer program  that 
provides cryptographic  
privacy  and authentication 
 for data communication. 
PGP is often used for signing, encrypting, and decrypting 
 texts, e-mails, files, 
directories, and whole disk partitions and to increase the security of 
e-mail communications.

Quoted from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pretty_Good_Privacy

The  use of Key Exchange for the data replication suggests a way of 
safely internally exchanging the replicated data.

Most of the engine to use it is already in Thunderbird.
Please see 
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/digitally-signing-and-encrypting-messages

Under which OS (version and architecture) are you having these problems?

You can not attach files to the emails but you can add them to the Nabble
interface to the mailing list
http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Issues-Converting-to-PDF-tp4177197.html
Alternatively you can post a link to some ftp server or file sharing host.

Please remember that branch 4.4 has been EOLed on December 31, 2015 so any
fixes will not be incorporated into that branch

It was, a very long time ago. The rectification is called:

IMAP.

No, you really shouldn't, because you obviously don't know what you're
talking about.

The only thing IMAP *might* have in common with Yahoo is that Yahoo
*may* support the protocol (whether or not it does, and if so how well,
is another question that I have zero interest in, because anyone who
uses it for email is someone who doesn't have a clue).

We're talking POP and Thunderbird.

IMAP is a pre-existing condition.

The ability for POP clients to keep all of their shared clients current 
is a glaring omission that should be rectified.

I regret not having the ability to do this myself.

IMAP is a security risk that increases the attack surface area. YaHoo, 
should I say more.


The only rational solution is to get in the boat to make sure the earth 
isn't flat.


When we engage in conversation, we are working together to find an 
answer, even if they are different questions. We are stepping into the boat.


I hope we've inspired someone who is capable of doing this to begin 
their journey.


Thank you Tanstaafl

Oh - not to mention that it doesn't even accomplish the goal.

What about all of the email prior to adding 'Thunderbird 3' to the mix?
Or your new phone?

As I said, IMAP is the only sane, rational solution.

Each e-mail address has its own "STATUS" file.
"STATUS" file e-mails are not deletable from the POP mail server unless
specifically commanded to delete them within Thunderbird via a separate
command
   or when all "STATUS" files are duplicated based on time stamp.
"STATUS" files are based on changes and store individual e-mails and/or
their marking (New, Deleted, Un-read)
The frequency of generating time stamped "STATUS" files is based on file
size of STATUS file.
"STATUS" file e-mail may only be transmitted with PGP or some form of
encryption.
"STATUS" files are created chronologically, each access adds to the
stack to be sent between Thunderbird 1, 2, 3...N
The checking of "STATUS" file happens within Thunderbird


Thunderbird 1<---> POP mail server <--> Thunderbird 2

Thunderbird 1 receives e-mail < -- POP mail server

Thunderbird 1 creates "STATUS" file based on changes (New, Deleted, Un-read)

Thunderbird 1 sends "STATUS" file via e-mail in PGP encrypted file --->
POP mail server

POP mail server --> Thunderbird 2 receives e-mail including PGP
encrypted "STATUS" file

Thunderbird 2 says "You have received a "STATUS", Processing "STATUS"
file now.

Thunderbird 3 added and receives "STATUS" file e-mail < -- POP mail server

Thunderbird 3says "You have received a "STATUS", Processing "STATUS"
file now.

Thunderbird 3 sends "STATUS" file via e-mail in PGP encrypted file --->
POP mail server

I didn't say it was easy, but it is possible.
Think of it as a very unique and fancy Message filter.

Is there any reason why you are not using the final version in the 4.4
branch (4.4.7.2)?
Maybe the problem is already fixed...

[libreoffice-users] Issues Converting to PDF

2016-03-02 Thread Rufus Reynolds, III
We're using LibreOffice 4.4.1 on a project for DISA and have several cases
where Microsoft Office documents take a very long time to convert to PDF,
and sometimes actually crash the service. We are running in headless mode.
Most of the documents are PPT or PPTX.

 

We've been given permission to share an example case in hopes that the
community can help us identify what is causing these delays or crashes so we
can better instruct our users.

 

Is there any other information we can share to help? Can I attach the
example document to an email to this list?

 

Thank you.
