Frankly, I can't. Having to use a GUI mail client makes participation in the 100+ mailing lists that I contribute code and provide assistance on completely untenable. And resubscribing every single one of these to a new address outside the firewall is likewise nonsense. Open source requires volunteers. I was happy enough with the code base, but I was confused by why the open source community in general dismissed Bacula as a relevant or useful project. Now I understand why -- the code may work decently well, but when the community is treated poorly and serious problems that prevent participation are ignored then they wander off to other projects. -- Jo Rhett senior geek Silicon Valley Colocation ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
