RE: 178 days and counting
eh? Thanks, but no thanks. I'm running on a Class C internal network
where I live, with a direct backend into the ms exchange server (yes the
gentleman where I live runs his own ISP, Microsoft based without a single
touch of linux as he thinks it's a pile of shit and a fad - oh and he does
have 20 years or so of experience in the IT industry). Therefore I do not
have a pop3 or imap account to set up mutt, evolution etc. At the moment
i'm using the ms exchange net feature (ie retrieval of email by logging on
via http to my exchange account), which saves me having to reboot into ms
windows to check my email. I do not intend to change the way my mail works,
nor should I have to. I think i'll just keep my mouth shut from now on and
read teh posts and that's it. I'm to the point where i'm seroiusly
considering formatting it and just make it all ms windows again. Thanks kde
- you've really turned me off. Oh and for those that bitch about me not
having the "correct" line in my sources.list I actually did try that as
well, with the same dependency fuckups. I'm beyond caring now.

I know this is not your fault but your current mailer (Internet Mail
Service
(5.5.2653.19)) is pretty bad because it is missing headers that all
common
MUAs use to display threading. This is pretty annoying and hard to track
the
discussion this way. For personal mailing, no threading might be
sufficient,
on mailing lists it is somewhat essential.
I have no idea what it is but please try to use a normal mail program.
>From
your previous posting, I assume you use gnome, so maybe balsa or even
mutt or
anything like this (even mozilla or old netscape 4.7x) are not out of
reach
to you.
if you cannot get around this "Internet Mail Service", please write them
a
mail to implement the use of the "References:" and "In-Reply-To:"
headers
when replaying to mails.
Thank you
HS
