Hi
Thank you - now i can follow along with the new apl mailing list controversies
^h^h^h topics
speaking of which - i am glad to see you are sticking with svn - i am trying to
avoid git stuff especially on github now - i don't need microsoft knowing what
software i use etc :) and i'm sure when it gets hacked (again?) some hacker
will use it to learn who has older un-updated software versions and use that
info for no good purpose. :) if not downright malware code insertion
---
btw - i use to use thunderbird until i could no longer compile it on my system
with no gtk3 and had to find something else to use and luckily i found sylpheed
it has been great to use - the spam and other filters are great and you can use
gnupg for encrypting email contents as well as using ssl to and from your
smtp/pop3/imap server
since there is no guarentee of any encryption in the transport once it leaves
your email hosting server on the way through other relays - email content
encryption is good - lots of mail relays actually make sure NOT to use relay
encryption -> makes things quicker and what do they care about your emails
anyway ;)
I don't remember if thunderbird had this capability back then
http://sylpheed.sraoss.jp/sylpheed
and i saw some bad vulnerabilites continuing in thunderbird not to long ago and
it seems to be continuing
