Using mutt to sendmail via remote SMTP

[Bayu Adiwibowo]

I using thunderbird to send this mail, recently i found that I can run
cygwin with my USB, so I wonder how to use cygwin MUA like mutt to
sending mail via gmail. As far in my research mutt look for sendmail
program in exim or other smtp program running in localhost to sending
mail, and this is not suite to my purpose.
Maybe anyone in this list can point me a way to make mutt sending mail
with remote SMTP server?

thank

What does your  "/var/log/fetchmail.log"  say?  
Probably a permission problem.

Yes, that's the way mutt works. mutt still uses the distinction between
MUA (mail user agent, that is, mutt itself) and MTA (mail transfer
agent, that is, something like sendmail, exim, and-so-on).

You need to install an MtA like sendmail, exim, postfix, or similar. You
may, however, use a very simple one like ssmtp (it is available with
cygwin). This might be your easiest solution.

HTH,
   Spiro.

bash shell interface broken after install on Vista

[Barry Gold]

I installed cygwin on my new HP Pavilion machine running (ecch!) Vista.  
I added a few items to the default install parameters (notably vim and 
file), then started my download.


It got "stuck" about 80% through -- sat at 80% for over an hour.

I cancelled the install, and tried again with a different mirror.  This 
time it got stuck at about 32%.


I tried yet another mirror and finally got a supposedly complete 
install.  Then I started up a bash shell in a command window (using the 
Cygwin shortcut).


I observe the following two symptoms:

1. Nearly all commands appear to complete without doing anything.  This 
includes "ls", "cat", "vi".

The following commands work properly:
 echo
 true
 false ($? == 1)
dirs
 if...then.fi
 test

2. exit doesn't exit.  Instead, I get the following message:
 4 [main] bash 1576 fork: child -1 - died waiting for longjmp 
before initialization, retry 10, exit code 0x100, errno 11

My question is - is there some way to work around this?

For example, running bash as the login shell, and then running cmd.exe, does not fix the

Basically you need to set the env var CYGWIN to contain 'tty', if you already

(export CYGWIN="tty $CYGWIN"; cygstart bash.exe)...

You could set the env-var in a .bat file which then launches cygwin?

You can make the 'tty' setting permanently part of your CYGWIN var by adding
it to your windows environment (system properties, advanced,

That I can address: they are shell builtins.  That is, they are
recognized by bash and processed by the bash program itself without
forking or otherwise involving another process.  I find it hard to
imagine that anything in bash could work if those commands didn't.

Since you just installed Cygwin and didn't configure it much, have you
considered just uninstalling and reinstalling from a new mirror?

UTF-8 Terminal - How to?

[Jerry DeLisle]

Hi folks,

I am implementing UTF-8 encoding capability for gfortran.  I can test fine on 
linux platforms because the gnome-terminal has UTF-8 capability built in.


How can I achieve similar capability in a Cygwin terminal so that I can test the 
gfortran Cygwin build? The gfortran library code paths are different on Cygwin 
because of things like CR-LF line ends, so I really should test it.


Good suggestions welcome.

Jerry

The mirror checking software runs four times a day to weed out bad
mirrors.  It's very unlikely that a new installation would have problems
that were due to a mirror.  It is possible that using an old mirror that
is no longer on the list would cause problems but that wouldn't be the
case with a new installation.

Commands which exit silently are usually caused by missing DLLs.
"cygcheck /bin/ls.exe" would tell you which DLL was missing and you could
install the missing packages.

Sorry but this is bad advice.  There is no reason to use CYGWIN=tty unless
you have a clear need for it.  Using CYGWIN=tty means that some non-cygwin
programs will operate incorrectly so I wouldn't suggest this technique for
a casual or first time user.

That gain suggests BLODA.  And 00ash.sh should come before 00bash.sh.

That's a good first step but if you don't have luck, you may need to
uninstall it.  For more info, see the email archives on BLODA.

I ran it in a command window.

The hang is most likely during the postinstall phase, because some BLODA
is preventing the postinstall scripts from running.  No postinstall = no
/etc/profile, which means PATH doesn't get set to include /bin, which
means normal commands don't work and only shell builtins function.  No
postinstall/profile also means /bin/bash doesn't get copied to /bin/sh
which means any script with a #!/bin/sh fails to run also.

I doubt this would be a big issue but if you find something there, then
report it.  I'd still recommend going for the install for all and if
necessary, installing as administrator to facilitate that as necessary.
FWIW, this is always an option when installing, just like whether you
want UNIX or DOS (shudder) files.


I hate Vista.  And I'm not too fond of HP either, right now.

But I should note that I had no problems with cygwin on my previous 
(Win2K) machine, which also ran NAV and lots of other potentially dodgy

Right.  Depends on the version of the dodgy app many times.  What's
clear from the above is that something is getting in the way of your
post install.  As Brian said in another message in this thread, if
they don't run, you don't get allot of bootstrapping done that adds
things like '/bin' to your path and sets up profile files, passwd
and group files, and the like.  So if you can't force this through
with 'setup.exe' in some way, you can go looking in '/etc/setup'
for the postinstall scripts to see which have run and which haven't.
But I'd stick it out with 'setup.exe' for the moment until you can't
get any further with it.  It can be a bit of a pain to do what 'setup.exe'
does manually, though if nothing else works, it can be a god-send (or
at least help clarify any issues).

cygwin gcc: Different numerical results in thread vs in main()

[Richard Stanton]

The following program performs exactly the same calculation 5 times, once 
inside main(), and again in 4 thread functions. Though the calculations are 
identical, the results are not. When I compile and run the same program on my 
Mac, all the results are identical. By the way, this is using the latest gcc 
3.4.4.

The difference is because the 387 in the main thread has its rounding
mode set to extended precision, whereas in the threads it's set to
double precision.  Cygwin sets the control word to extended precision in
its crt startup code; apparently the Windows default for new threads is
double precision and it's not explicitly set by Cygwin in
pthread::thread_init_wrapper.  Arguably it should set it there too for
consistency.

But the results are the same to 15 significant digits which is all you
can expect out of an IEEE double, so this is technically correct.  The
excess precision issue with 387 math is well known, see gcc PR323.

If your architecture supports sse2 then you can use that instead of the
387 unit with -fpmath=sse2 (in conjunction with the relevant -march= of
course, or -msse2).  The sse2 unit always does double calculations in
double precision, there is no extended mode, so this is not an issue.

You could also set the 387 control word yourself at your thread's start
function.

I use mutt with exim ( via remote smtp ) and it works really good.
You can choose ssmtp as substitute for exim.

files/folders created by cygwin behaving as shared in explorer on Vista

[Miles Georgi]

I can reproduce the situation that occurs here:

http://www.mail-archive.com/cygwin@cygwin.com/msg83794.html

But only within the C:\Users\\ folder.  The Icalcs of the
files inside and outside of that directory are identical.  So it seems
vista is interpretting files with identical cacls differently
depending on where they are in the tree.
