Excuse me but am I the only one having problems viewing the mails. I use Mutt and
most emails I received are in HTML format. Can something be done (like we
standardized on non-HTML emails) or is HTML emails the norm here?
Thanks.

I have this customer for whom I intstalled netatalk (apple talk services).
He's running RedHat 6.1.
The problem I'm having is with the afpd. Users at their Macs can see and
open the files, as long as they are not shared. When a second user tries
to open the same database as another one they get

If all you're doing is hosting web pages, why do users need shells?
Most of the end-users I know (I'm talking non-savvy end users) prefer
just to click on the 'upload this page with FTP' button on their
page creator program.

Below is a little perl script I wrote that removes html parts from messages
that have text parts as well. I wrote it because exmh goes ballistic when it
sees such mail. The only downside that I've seen is that it can't tell if the
two parts have the same content, so if someone sends you a pla

People what do you say? Shall we be more text-/console-friendly and
standardized on text only emails.
Many thanks to those who responded.

Standard netetiquette says that not only should text-only be sent to email lists, but
also we should cut down on quoting.

Hi all.
I hate to have to do this, but it seems like it's time for the "friendly
reminder" again.
While there are only two posting guidelines for the LinuxChix lists ( 1.
Be Friendly, 2. Be Helpful ), there are some more general guidelines
that should be followed when posting to a mailing list.
