| 12:59:56 | han_solo | tada |
| 14:53:08 | han_solo | bradipo, I got courier and mutt playing |
| 16:05:26 | Bradipo | Sweet. |
| 16:05:31 | Bradipo | What did you have to do? |
| 16:05:52 | Bradipo | han_solo: I haven't ever spent the time to figure out how to make it work nicely. |
| 16:06:18 | han_solo | well, if you are using mutt remotely (or via imap on localhost) |
| 16:06:37 | han_solo | set folder=imap://mailserver.com/INBOX |
| 16:06:47 | Bradipo | Nice. |
| 16:06:49 | han_solo | then you can change mailboxes with c like before |
| 16:06:54 | Bradipo | Right. |
| 16:07:04 | han_solo | create, subscribe, delete imap mailboxes, etc. |
| 16:08:02 | han_solo | over imap is of course slower |
| 16:08:14 | Bradipo | Yeah. |
| 16:08:18 | Bradipo | I is. |
| 16:09:11 | han_solo | but using folder=~/Maildir and =.foldername works too. |
| 16:09:19 | han_solo | or maintaining symlinks |
| 18:08:15 | han_solo | is curious, what is everyone's favorite IMAP client? |
| 18:08:27 | Jayce^ | kmail right now.. |
| 18:08:39 | Jayce^ | still getting used to imap myself.. |
| 18:09:50 | han_solo | i love mutt but it's a two-edged sword: mutt = speed like vim = speed, but mutt/imap != speed |
| 18:09:57 | han_solo | so I get frustrated using mutt. |
| 18:40:57 | scott | gnus of course |
| 18:47:53 | han_solo | gnus? |
| 18:47:54 | HarleyBot | han_solo, Emacs news/mail reader. URL: http://www.gnus.org/ |
| 18:48:10 | han_solo | harleybot, you're so kind. But no thanks. |
| 18:48:11 | HarleyBot | de rien han_solo |
| 18:48:13 | han_solo | what is emacs? |
| 18:48:13 | HarleyBot | i guess emacs is /ee'maks/ [from Editing MACroS] n. The ne plus ultra of hacker editors, a program editor with an entire LISP system inside it. It was originally written by Richard Stallman in TECO under {ITS} at the MIT AI lab, but the most widely used versions now run under UNIX. It includes facilities to run compilation subprocesses and send and receive mail; many hackers spend up to 80% of their {tube time} inside it. Some versions running under wind |
| 18:48:46 | han_solo | emacs is also the kitchen sink. |
| 18:48:52 | Jayce^ | outta battery.. gotta run.. |
| 19:44:35 | scott | http://jaderholm.com/images/screenshots/linux/gnus for a screenshot of gnus |
| 19:47:10 | han_solo | scott, keybindings? |
| 19:57:01 | scott | huh? |
| 19:58:22 | han_solo | are the keybindings sane (to a vi user) and/or easily modifiable? |
| 20:02:05 | levi | gnus is an emacs program, so it's easily modifiable to anyone fluent in emacs-lisp |
| 20:04:16 | Jayce^ | ### update on www.plug.org ### |
| 20:04:18 | han_solo | i know lisp, i don't 'know' emacs. but I know c/c++ and I could just as easily modify the keybindings for mutt in the source... but is there an easy way to change keybindings? |
| 20:04:51 | scott | not as easy as mutt probably |
| 20:04:56 | scott | a bit more "codesy" |
| 20:04:59 | Jayce^ | hopefully stuff will be getting back up before *too* long, lightning struck the location, fried some hardware.. |
| 20:05:22 | Bradipo | Jayce^: I still can't get to www.plug.org |
| 20:05:34 | Bradipo | Oh, that was the update. :-) |
| 20:06:26 | Jayce^ | yeah, hopefully they'll get stuff back online.. they have some people there working on the systems today. |
| 20:08:04 | han_solo | is finally running on a 500mhz machine |
| 20:08:34 | Jayce^ | finally? just upgraded? |
| 20:11:17 | han_solo | yeah. some of the kind folks here have probably gotten fed up with my hardware questions. :) Hardware and I don't get along well. |
| 20:13:27 | euler | han_solo: Which hardware question wat that? |
| 20:14:31 | han_solo | euler: oh, the ones about power supplies, motherboards, cpus, etc. (you're all nice, I doubt you were fed up but I sure was. ;-) |
| 20:17:59 | han_solo | (with having to ask the questions of course) |
| 22:36:08 | Jayce^ | oh that's too freaky.. just demo'd a pop server running through apache2, since it's built to handle multiple protocols.. |
| 22:36:25 | Jayce^ | not a mail client.. a POP3 Server.. |
| 22:39:11 | Bradipo | That's interesting. |
| 22:39:21 | Jayce^ | kinda freaky :D |
| 22:39:58 | Bradipo | So, was apache speaking POP3 or was it just doing some type of proxy? |
| 22:40:29 | Jayce^ | it was speaking pop3.. it has protocol extensions now that you can write.. |
| 22:40:36 | Bradipo | Interesting. |
| 22:40:37 | HarleyBot | hmmm... interesting is adj. In hacker parlance, this word has strong connotations of `annoying', or `difficult', or both. Hackers relish a challenge, and enjoy wringing all the irony possible out of the ancient Chinese curse "May you live in interesting times". Oppose trivial, uninteresting. |
