I tested it but I get a few 404 : http://www.libre-essai.net/xmailmirror.log When it says "Le fichier du serveur n'est pas plus r=E9cent que le fichier local" it means the local file is the same as the remote one. > and > an hostname for me to put as www.XX.xmailserver.org Does that mean if I set Apache to answer to this domain name and give you the IP address of the host it's ok ? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

If you want to > have one in France, I think I can help. Honestly, to me, it bothers more when mirrors are not properly maintained, than not having them at all. A mirror requires a software that does proper sync (proper == use HTTP HEAD instead of downloading each time everything) once or twice a day, and an hostname for me to put as www.XX.xmailserver.org - Davide - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Or, instead of adding a system dependent feature to XMail, someone can write something trivially simple that moves messages from one folder to the other (XMail's one), with proper conversion. - Davide - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
