hehe I agree with you but that's not the idea, the idea is that when you
receive an spam, you could have an option "bounce" that would send an e-mail to
the sender of the type such as "User Unknown" or something like that in order
to fool the person/computer on the other side, like I've seen on some e-mail
clients. :) What do you think?

Thanks!

Well, you can already do this with filters... just filter your SPAM to the

The perl package from sourceforge (1.7.9) is the latest usable version of
CSCMail... Install HTML::Parser manually if the installation script doesn't get
it for you.

Be warned, the C version doesn't really do much of anything right now... if you
are looking for a usable e-mail client, get the perl version (1.7.9)

Re: [CSCMail-Users] Cannot view message

[Daniel S. <np...@gm...>]

Hey Olli,

I'm sure this must be something with the message-ID. since I'm also using GMX
and I had this problem till I updated to 1.7.9. I suppose there is already a
message with the message-id of the message you try to download. a suggestion to
find out this: login with another user and start cscmail. (you may have to
create a database and so on for this user) if you can download the messages now
i suppose mi idea was correct.

Re: [CSCMail-Users] problem with date [feature request]

[Psy <ps...@on...>]

Hey,

Just a suggestion I had to keep the e-mail in order. We could have another
option when ordering the e-mail that would be "Date of Arrival". This would
solve the problem when why ISP's Endymion MailMan Mail Express mess up with the
timezones, or when a person sending us an e-mail that do not have the current
time correctly configured in his machine.
If it isn't too much to ask, it would also be very useful to have a "Bounce"
capability when we receive SPAM, what is very common nowadays :P
Just an idea :)

Egon.

Hi, Steve

I just want to know if you found anything about the problem with the messages
not showing in the inbox?
I have not any other csclib.pl hanging around in my system and I updated to
1.7.9 couple of weeks ago.
Still, I am not able to see the messages, that come directly from my
mail-provider, www.gmx.de.
They get downloaded, but they do not show.

Does the testaccount work for you? As long as this appears only to happen with
more or less unimportant messages from gmx, I may accept this, but I'm not
shure...

[CSCMail-Users] Switching Data-Bases

[Jim S. <se...@mi...>]

 This is the text I get when running dbmigrate.pl in an attempt to move
from CSV to mysql   
I copied dbswitch.pl to the home directory .cscmail and ran it from there.

computer:/home/jim/.cscmail# perl dbswitch.pl CSV mysql
 Parameter to use lib must be directory, not file at dbswitch.pl line 21
Can't locate csclib.pl in @INC (@INC

/usr/lib/perl5
/site_perl/i386-linux /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl .) at
dbswitch.pl line 25.
 
So, since that didn't work I tried running both dbswitch and dbmigrate from
the cscmail lib directory

computer:/usr/local/lib/cscmail/migration-scripts$ perl dbswitch.pl CSV mysql
Parameter to use lib must be directory, not file at dbswitch.pl line 21CSV

This is a known issue with the GtkText widget that we use for message
composition.  Ways to speed it up include switching to a less memory intensive
Gtk Theme, as well as shrinking the window.  Just a small adjustment to make
the window smaller will make a noticable jump in typing speed.

Hopefully GtkText (or its big brother) will be much faster in Gtk+ 1.4

This is so incredibly common these days I guess I should add it to the FAQ...

For some reason, on some systems, MIME::Parser doesn't compile properly via the
install script.  Simply go to www.cpan.org and download MIME::Parser, then
install it manually...

"Looks good

error:  unable to locate installed Perl lirbaries or Perl source code"

(looking for /usr/lib/perl5/5.6.0/i386-linux/CORE/perl.h)


I've got the following mdk RPMS installed:

perl-base 5.600
perl 5.600
perl-MIME-base64 2.11
perl-IO-stringy 1.213
perl-digest-MD5 2.11
perl-HTML-parser 3.11
perl-mailtools 1.14
perl-libnet 1.0703
perl-Net_SSLeay 1.05
perl-Msgcat-1.03
perl-DB_file 1.73
perl-URI 1.09
perl-PDL 2.101
perl-MIME-tools 5.311
perl-HTML-SimpleParse 0.10
perl-DBI 1.14
perl-libwww-perl 5.48
perl-Data-ShowTable 3.3
eperl 2.2.14
perl-Term-Readline-Gnu 1.09

is perl.h supposed to be in any of these RPMS?

This is very odd... Does the installation script give any errors when you run
it?

It should download MIME-Types-0.02.tar.gz from CPAN and this should
install clean... if not, there should be some errors...  Try downloading
the tarball from CPAN yourself (http://www.cpan.org) and installing
it by hand... does it give any errors?
