Obviously not, since the bounce didn't come from suse.com. The headers say it was fetched with fetchmail from a btinternet.com server and that the original address is william.taylor14@btopenworld.com cc to suse-linux-e-owner@suse.com, who should have gotten the report in the first place

SuSE looks for envelope-from not from. On the other hand Mr William Taylor has an ill configured postfix server. For those who are listening mode in SuSE, I think with more Windows users being converted to Linux time is coming to make KISS. in the default install no mailserver should be installed. Yes sytem generated mail will also not go but that would not make a diff since it would not help the new comer to understand what it all says. -- Togan Muftuoglu | Unofficial SuSE FAQ Maintainer | Please reply to the list; http://susefaq.sf.net | Please don't put me in TO/CC.

I don't believe most newcomers would install and use fetchmail. Most would use kmail or evolution to get their mail and those would not be affected by a mailserver. This is a case of someone trying to be more clever than he is

I agree with Togan, no server is better than an ill configured one. Or if one must be installed have it installed -not- to run on boot. -- Ken Schneider unix user since 1989 linux user since 1994 SuSE user since 1998 (5.2)

Mmmm... dunno :-? I think it might be better to configure the mail server only for local delivery, listening only on 127.0.0.1. That should be enough. -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson

I received two of these overnight in respect to a post I had made to the list and the second one related to a response to the original query. John __________ This email has been pre-scanned using the latest Anti Virus software for your peace of mind.

I have recieved a number of similar mails. As far as i know its the "new" MS-virus Mydoom or whateter the name was.. Its a neat way to get ppl to open the attachment. It spreads the usual way; via MS and the neat litte inbuilt feature "virus relay system" (aka. Outlook/Outlook express adressbook) It apparently opens a backdoor on the box, and is supposed to, at a certain date pingflood SCO's webservers. But then again i could be wrong :) -- /Rikard ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rikard Johnels email : rikjoh@norweb.se Web : http://www.rikjoh.com Mob : +46 (0)735 05 51 01 ------------------------ Public PGP fingerprint ---------------------------- < 15 28 DF 78 67 98 B2 16 1F D3 FD C5 59 D4 B6 78 46 1C EE 56 >

I got that too. What worries me more is that every now and then the list server sends me a notice that some messages from the list to me, and some messages from me to the list bounced or could not be delivered, for whatever reason. Double checking those, I see that all those messages was in fact delivered. -- Kind regards Hans du Plooy hansdp@newingtoncs.co.za

Where did you get that latest 2.6.1 kernel from SuSE ? I haven't seen any, in fact the latest I've seen is 2.6.0test5 kernel.
In fact, the modutils that are current in SuSE don't work with 2.6.1, so I am extremely curious as to WHERE in SuSE those utils, and not to mention the kernel. And hopefully, with the splash patch, and ACL patch, which the kernel that was provided with SuSE 9.0 didn't have.
Not so, SuSE 9.0 modutils does work with 2.6.1 kernels, at least the ones from kernel.org, I haven't tried any of the kraxel kernels, however. barrabas:~ # rpm -qf /sbin/insmod modutils-2.4.25-50 barrabas:~ # uname -r 2.6.2-rc2-mm1 Regards Sid. -- Sid Boyce ....
