Hi Simon

First Issue:
with the samba problem the warnings you are getting are asking you to
change 'fmask' to 'file_mode' and change 'dmask' to 'dir_mode' and it
also looks like it having problems finding the host.

Second Issue:
I have not personally encountered this problem and have been using
Thunderbird for years with lots of filtering.

Regards
Dale
