But that is not the operation I need to do. Typically I would select a bunch of old mails in the INBOX and try to drag them to another folder, typically a folder under my local dovecot server. I tried that a week ago and failed. I try now, and it fails, does nothing. The block can be dragged, but on mouse release the blue block goes back to INBOX. Same if destination is on "local folders". >> It is select messages in one folder, right click, move to, select >> destination folder. One by one. > > See above.

Not the entire folder. And I do it using Alpine because it runs faster, and makes marking messages with criteria easier. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.1 x86_64 at Telcontar)

[opensuse] Clickable web links on the new HyperKitty web interface of the lists server?
by cagsm 06 Dec '20

06 Dec '20

Hi users @ list opensuse, maybe I am old school, but from old days of mails and usenet, I always came from the concept to post URLs, web-addresses and clickable links into like angle-brackets < > and make various mail clients and places be able to fully recognize and respect especially very long URLs URIs and more. Maybe I never fully grasped the concept, or had some misunderstanding of them to begin with. As far as I can now tell, the new HyperKitty (?) mechanism on https://lists.opensuse.org/archives/ apparently does not render clickable html links when browsing list posts e.g. on the new archives areas > https://lists.opensuse.org/archives/list/users@lists.opensuse.org/ vs > <https://lists.opensuse.org/archives/list/users@lists.opensuse.org/> Now I was wondering how one should post long links and more safely. I am writing via google gmail web interface. But also how about other inbound delivery means e.g. smtp clients etc? What are the exact technical details about how stuff becomes rendered on this HyperKitty thingy? Also, some while ago, I tried to attempt to log-in or register on the web interface of the lists.opensuse.org server, but it then denied or spoke about not having implemented accounts yet or something. These days, it seems that one could log in to it with all sorts of credential providers, opensuse id, open id, github, gitlab, stack exchange, google log on. <https://lists.opensuse.org/accounts/login/> Registering apparently is still blocked. <https://lists.opensuse.org/accounts/signup/> Does this mean we can somehow claim our own account that we already use (email address as sender) to be able to log into the web interface as well and post there instead of our own mail clients or mail concepts? or when will this be available?

I know you haven't. My ISP INBOX folder is borked, maybe as a result of previous operations with Thunderbird this afternoon or trying to create filters at my ISP.

All, Has anyone used the zoom app on openSUSE or should I just use the Firefox extension? They put out an openSUSE rpm at: https://zoom.us/download?os=linux with instructions at: https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/204206269-Installing-or-updating-… There is also the Firefox add-on.

[opensuse] REgistering file/mime type system wide
by Daniel Spannbauer 02 Dec '20

02 Dec '20

Hello, we have a filetype with ending "fsp" ,which should be opened with a special application. I created a xml-file and registered the type "application/x-fsp" with "xdg-mime install" I also created a Desktop-file /usr/share/applications/mmview.desktop , which has an entry "MimeType=application/x-fsp" When I call "xdg-mime query default application/x-fsp" as my user, I get "which: no mmviews in (/usr/uti)" If I call it as root, I get "mmview.desktop". How do I configure a mime type for alle users under opensuse Leap?
