Mail and Hebrew
Hi, I currently using mozilla as my mail client, and the mails are kept with mozillas database. My Emails are organized with directories with hebrew names. I want: 1. Mail filters - not so strong in mozilla, and its hard to edit them by hand. 2. I want to edit my mails with vim. 3. I want to retain the hebrew names of the folders. 4. I have to write/read mails in hebrew. 5. Use spamassasin or equivalent. Please recommend me another way to work with emails.

Re: strange URL behaviour
OK - I tried Guy's advice and came up with 1372 + 28 = 1400 which is exactly what was already suggested and didn't solve my problem. I had already set the Win98 MTU to 1400 in the registry according to the instructions in the ADSL-Bezeq HOWTO. I'm obviously doing something wrong. But I still have two questions: 1 - Is there any way to check if the MTU is actually set as it should be? I tried **playing** with ethereal a bit, but to be honest, I have no idea what I'm looking for and there is so much info that I'm lost ;-) 2 - As I originally asked, what could cause this problem to suddenly appear? To make myself clearer - I've been using ADSL since the original Bezeq trial period so for years Win98 machines on my network have had no problems until recently (about 3 weeks ago, I think). I know of no changes (but of course there must be something) on the Linux box. And I'm sure there were no changes in Win98 because: a - my wife and kids would't know how or what to change b - it makes no sense that a change would be made on all 3 Win98s c - all Win98s have up-to-date anti-virus so I rule out a virus On Wednesday 19 November 2003 20:48, Guy Teverovsky wrote: Yes. It looks OK. This should adjust the client's MTU to the size determined by PathMTU Discovery initiated from the router. Try the following to eliminate a problem with MTU: From your Win98 box run: ping -f -l java.sun.com where is TCP's payload size. Start from 1472 and go down till you get a reply instead of Packet needs to be fragmented but DF set. Record the largest value which results in reply, add 28 to that number (TCP headers size) and set the NIC's MTU to that value. For example, if I get reply after ping -f -l 1464, I would set the MTU to 1492.

The strange thing is that **most** URLs are still reachable and I haven't noticed any common factor in the unreachable ones. Also, the URLs that can't be reached on the 3 Win98 machines can be reached by Mozilla on the Mandrake machine.

I don't know how it is with hebrew, will be happy to hear how to set it up for the ocational hebrew mail I recieve, but in terms of editing mail with vim, mutt does it, and for using spamassasin and strong filtering procmail is quite good (again, don't know about the hebrew directories, if you file system is set up properly this will probably work).

I never used Hebrew folder names, but just tried it and it works. As far as using a specific editor, KMail allows that (although I've never had the need). Here's something strange. After answering Kfir's message, I closed and re-started KMail and discovered that the Hebrew folder name I'd created now shows ? instead of the Hebrew name. Since I don't use Hebrew names, it doesn't really matter to me, but does that invalidate my answer to Kfir, or is there a way around this? I figure that those folder names are in ISO-8859-8 (-i) Hebrew, whereas in kmail works with the UTF-8 charset (or vice-versa). Actually: it would be interesting to know exactly which of the two.

I've just createda folder with a Hebrew name, exit and re- enter thunderbird and it's still there. The filesystem is Reiserfs (kernel 2.6test9).

It is not awfully expensive so here again I have an upper limit for the revenue I can get by getting it from a list member. Am I missing something?
