Trying to install a GUI MUA has me wedged ... and lost!! I've been trying to get the mozilla mail/news suite to work for a long time--well, on and off! I finally installed cucipop on NS1.THOUGHT.ORG and tried to start it. root@ns1:/usr/local/etc/rc.d# /usr/local/libexec/cucipop -Y cucipop: Can't bind socket 110 NS1 had a valid IP address; my two other systems are internal, private, invisible from the outside. At any rate, after some pondering I altered the 'news and mail' configuration. Voila; mail *is* sent out (in HTML). But not received... (???) /var/mail/kline is my spool; mozilla can't see this for some reason. evolution refuses to build because some of the GNOME libs won't upgrade. (Of my 400 ports, just 11 seem broken.) Can anybody recommend a GUI mail program that doesn't have so many dependencies? 1.) Do I really need pop3? 2.) How do I get the mozilla mail to recognize the mail in my spool dir? , and 3) What is a decent MUA? thanks muchly, gary -- Gary Kline kline@thought.org www.thought.org Public service Unix
