World: r3wp

I have a sendmail question: I have some users with crowded mailboxes, 
as the marked such mails as keep-on-the-server. And I now want to 
get rid of them. How can I empty a users mailbox?

connect via rebol and "clear" them, but you would have to know their 
passwords  of course ...

if in console, I would do the same using some console tool. Or simply 
delete mailbox and create empty file of particular name and attributes. 
But I never tried it :-)

Seems like I can use the MAIL command on the server...

Hmm... not working that good.

hwo to invoke it? I use: MAIL -I -f mbox-filename

Ok, I can use: >mail-box-filename to get rid of it... but this will 
kill all mails.

Now, using MUTT it works very well.

I can't send mail from rebol via Ubuntu. I've configured it correctly, 
and it sends and says that everything is ok, but nothing happens 
on the receiver end. Ideas?

did you take a look at the log files? /var/log/messages

it's empty

no logs show anything related to rebol

or sending mails or unauthorized access to network ports

You need to connect to an SMTP server. At least this should be somehow 
logged.

mails are coming in now, so I guess it works.

(very delayed)

could be a SPAM filter. Mine delays mails (generating an error on 
the first try) to get rid of spammer.

very annoying when I'm sending emails to myself. :-)

I just installed altme on ubuntu, but I don't get to see messages. 
Screen of all groups, except rebolweek, are empty.

Are you getting older messages in this group now?

Ok, if I post a message, then all the messages come up. Isn't there 
a way to sync everythting in one go?

That has been the way to do it for many years...

Ah!

It's worse on big worlds

Had no clue. That's interesting.

It's a bug, of course

Thanks, Kaj!

sometimes it helps to logout and back in again a few times

ok, will do, Henrik, thanks!

had the same problem with using different computers with the same 
account. One computer would not upload all the messages...both windows 
XP

Graham;  What brand of VMWare are you running.  i.e. did you but 
it?

VMWare = VMware  but = buy.

using vmware server ... free

Anyone knows if rebol will run on the maemo OS as used by the Nokia 
N800 internet tablet? It is a debian-based linux derivation, so chances 
it will run.

no

I think this is in the faq

Really?

no, jk

but I've seen this question asked a few times now

Too bad, looks like a sweet device to me

just wait for R3 ... coming "soon"

I haven't been following R3 development so closely, but are you saying 
that we will be able to compile R3 from source on linux?

No, but they claim they will be able to port much more quickly

I 'd be foolish to cling to that, I'm still waiting the palm version...

it was promised for a long long time, then Carl said something like 
it was not feasible

memory constraints

Fact is there's python, scheme and a beautiful lua runtime

On the palm I mean

pehaps we need to ask him again re R3

but the PDA market is a shrinking one ...
