And it’s interesting to note that multiplication is not commutative anymore: 6 times 9 is 14

Wonderful arguments. I’m totally convinced. With such arguments, my feelings is that mootools users are clowns that can’t even troll. If it was the actual purpose of your comment, congratulations and g’luck, but sorry, I’m not in.

According to the getmail FAQ at http://pyropus.ca/software/getmail/faq.html#faq-about-why indeed fetchmail has some design flaws. That’s good to know!

Thanx to bringing this bug to our attention :).

I guess he would say OpenBSD’s OpenSSH (not the same source code as OpenSSH-Portable).

In complement, see the thread on openssh-unix-dev: loginmsg bug . This bug doesn’t seem exploitable (or if someone – with no local account and write permissions on PAM files – find a way to control loginmsg :) ).

Same comment as Timo :)

Plus, I think you have a typo in your post : s/OpenBSD/OpenSSH/ ;)

I’ve been reading your blog through RSS, and noticed that the links point to http://127.0.0.1:3000/ instead of http://00f.net/

Hello Jean-Baptiste,

Just use Google. Most people switched to getmail because of fetchmail bugs. It looks like it was even the primary motivation for writing getmail.

I also have a Gmail account but I can’t abandon Mutt yet. I still feel handicaped with something that doesn’t work in a terminal :)

Fetchmail is bogus? It’s the first time I hear this. I’ve been using it for ten years without any problem. Could you be more specific? I admit that procmail is not the most user-friendly piece of mail software, but it’s not part of fetchmail per se.

I also tried to use OfflineImap, a powerful tool to synchronize an Imap server (so that filtering is done on the server-side), but this one is clearly bogus.

Now I stopped using either of these, just using Gmail web interface. I never thought I could abandon Mutt, but these days you can’t really compete with Google, at least concerning email :-)

Cheers!

Your Atom feed might be bogus, it links to http://127.0.0.1:3000/2008/a-simple-powerful-and-fast-mail-delivery-agent
