Thanks Temlakos,  Ted, Frank and Patrick.

I've got Thunderbird up and running, I had an idea it was Google wanting
some monopoly.  I just wasn't too sure, I figured Google was still a friend.
What would be interesting is, what exactly you lose in security?  Maybe
just the benefit of cross platform information and pin codes?  I still
received an email for log in.
I managed to find emacs, woohoo! Although Vim users might be more a boohoo
lol.  Next question...
Is there still an rpm repository you can search?  I'm not too keen on the
new software list.  It doesn't seem to want to show all searches of
software, more fedora recommendations?   Unless maybe it was the updates
needed doing first.

Email Client

2019-06-10 Thread Douglas G Mckendrick via users
Evening all,
I'm after setting up an email client, I've tried thunderbird for my gmail
account, but I get a google complaint about the client not being secure
enough.  Is there another recommended email client?  Or can we make
thunderbird more secure to pass the google checks?

Thanks in advance

D.

Morning,
Completely agree, I updated to 30 last thing last night.  A relatively
simple, quick and easy process, I was impressed.  23 was just a copy I had
downloaded from  somewhere for the USB.  When I had it installed, it was
quite easy to find a link to download the latest version using the fedora
installer.
Initially I couldnt find a suitable download link to make a USB live CD
from windows.  It seemed alot easier when you could pick up linux format or
ludor I'm just not very au fait.
30 is very different from 23, or the user interface.  I'll look forward to
having a play with it.  It installed gcc automatically this time, so that
was good.  I couldn't find it in the software tab.

Evening all,
After 9 years of not using linux, I've finally come back to the foldand
tada! I've installed fedora23.  I've just used Yum to install GCC and a
few others, updated the system etc.

Is there any user groups in the Bedfordshire or Buckinghamshire area?

Apologies if it's off topic, but I'm a decade out of touch.

Thanks in advance.

Kind regards

Doug Mckendrick
