Hello
If I set up a global /etc/procmailrc file for using spamassassin, it
seems to be ignored (ie, spamassassin doesn't ever get run).
So is there any setting that needs to be changed / made to the plain
vanilla exim of the testing distribution to allow this?
Cheers,
Sven

I am looking for a script that cleans out mails contained in the

Is there any such beast?

Hi fellow debs
Short and simple question:
How can ipchains be told not to log to /dev/console? It can get quite
annoying when your terminal gets all messed up with packet logs ...

Last night something weird happened. I was locally on my Debian

Hello
I got a new NIC for my system! It's a 3Com Etherlink XL PCI 3C900B-TPO.
Apparently, dmesg reports nothing about it when rebooting:

Found PCnet/PCI at 0xffe0, irq 10.
