Hi,
When I was playing with my disk's partition table I messed it up and lost
everything. It was a dual boot system with macOS and Debian.
Thanks to the back2l utility I have a full backup of Debian. Now I would
reinstall it and recover all the backed up files. However, I didn’t use LVM and

Thanks Mike,
I was slowly coming to that conclusion !
What would be best practice regarding a password for that account (i.e. system
account such as backuppc that needs ssh access but no shell access).
If I create the user with bash as the shell, I seem to have a few options:
1) don’t set a pass
I installed the Sid version on this Buster installation and it works
just fine. I simply downloaded it and installed it manually. Aptitude
puts it in the Obsolete and Locally Created Packages section. Shrug.

How does Dovecot get into a thread about fetchmail? The mind boggles.

Thanks much, all.
Dovecot's config was bent. Working version recovered from backup. Not
at all sure what was wrong.
Dovecot, IMHO, is a mixed blessing...
But I'm going to look into getmail and isync. I didn't know they
existed. Mutt rules, I think.

Yup - see this bug for details:

You might consider an alternative such as getmail, or isync.

It seems that fetchmail doesn't exist in Buster (Buster's apt and

This means I can't use Mutt if my email is in a box on the other side
of the LAN?

This is one of the those WTF moments. Despite the fact that Ghostscript
9.25 has been known to break Scribus since at least the start of the
month, the Stable version of Ghostscript has just been changed from 9.22
to 9.25.
This was apparently done to patch a security hole - possibly
