[opensuse] Mail Program wanted?
I have been asked to setup a number of single computers for a transport firm. They have no problem with it being linux providing everything they have now, they will have afterwards as they are expanding from the current four depots and twelve staff and have planned to have fifteen depots and about twenty five staff by the end of the year. Unfortunately one of the principal packages they use was written for a Native Windows environment. Fortunately the programmer is a local and after some "discussion" is willing to create a linux version as he is writing a major upgrade at present and providing I can help him, and with some answers The main problem left is that it uses a mail program as part of it's functions (currently Eudora) and I need to provide him with a replacement that has a scriptable interface. He would like whichever is used to both have windows and linux versions so he only has to create one version of source code. Any sugestions? scsijon -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

I'm in the dark a little as to what exactly are you needing to script? Are you just needing for it to write an e-mail out and prepare it through the mail client, or do you actually need to send the e-mail from the program? I'd check out Thunderbird in either case, as that is the major client I know is available in both Windows and Linux versions. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

firstly, to theo it works! the programmer (DEFINATELY NOT ME) knows her current package code "backwards" she is just starting with linux and will still need to support windows as she has other clients that use the same program in the windows environment.

I am setting up a wine environment at present and will have a go at installing Eudora and openoffice2 (easy to use database) next week together with some"rough" code she has created to try it out with.

Dirt 2.0 or 3.0? ;-) But I was thinking, why do you even need an _external_ mail program.

As someone who has had to do that, I can tell you it gets fairly complex, especially when a varying number of attachments are to be sent. If you can find a library it would of course be easier but there are still a zillion options you may have to implement and you might end up writing it closer to the platform than you really wanted. -- _____________________________________ John Andersen -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

There is that, but is there a version of mail that works on Windows applications exactly the way the linux version does? I'm very likely ignorant on that level if it does exist. I can see three possible solutions in this case: 1. Use a third party mailer that is used on both Windows and Linux and have the application call that 2. Build in mail capabilities to the application. 3. Have each of the desktop clients use a web call to a local, secure web server that does the mailing. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Cygwin has something. Once upon a time, when I was forced to do development on the beast that is Windows, I integrated the mailing of change notices into CVS (all under Cygwin). The mail-sending tool is called "ssmtp" (simple SMTP). Naturally, it's scriptable, since it's a command-line tool. With Cygwin, Windows can be tolerated and made to do useful work. <http://cygwin.com/> Randall Schulz -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org

Personal comments only - Without Prejudice - Acknowledged Personal Opinions 1. Complete lack of faith in QA, clear development path of suse.de maintained applications and apart from security no apparent need to fix bugs of past release before new release. Apparent that suse.de has structural issues with development. Quote inserted into a bug report "Whose handling NFS".....next entry "nnnnnnn" I think" or try "xxxxxxx" Open Suse really appears to be the testing ground for SLED as overwhelming issues when upgrading from version to version. No QA issue in RC containing far too many unresolved beta bug fixes in new version - lest previous one. That's all I can think of and why with the issues of 10.2 KDE/Evolution - Totally unacceptable QA control by suse.de and severely clearly viewpoint, that Evolution forms part of the default package Grouping of Gnome Desktop and Kmail/KDE - This is very obvious we are not meant to pick and choose applications not assigned to desktop by default.

I hope you don't mind if I refute some of your assertions. I feel that Thunderbird is a fine program, but such an outspoken attack on the alternatives is unjustified. I would also ask you to consider that the use of large applications that stand alone with no infrastructure shared with the rest of the desktop wastes an opportunity for code reuse, resulting in a bigger memory footprint and a slower system.
3. Not written or constrained now or in the future (add-ons excepted) to another mail server - Groupwise.
You need to review your understanding of cause and effect. Just because Novell develops XYZ and Novell sells GroupWise doesn't mean that XYZ would ever be constrained to or written around GroupWise. GW is an enterprise sized system - however, many Novell customers and the overwhelming majority of community members do not need an enterprise sized mail system - hence we also put a lot of work into making POP, SMTP and IMAP as good as any other client.
5. Complexity in Kmail for a new user - over engineered to the max and possible future dependants on KDE Desktop
We make the easy things easy and the hard things possible. Just doing the former is unacceptable IMO. With regard to desktop dependency doubts, our KDE 3 packaging of KMail depends only on kdelibs3, and kdebase3 for SMTP. It does not require you to use KMail under a KDE desktop, nor are there any difference in features if you do not. Our password manager, kwallet, and our out of process smtp, imap and pop subsystems all function indepedently of what is running the desktop. The KDE 4 packaging will take this separation even further so that you can install separate applications from a KDE module. Instead of kdelibs3, kdebase3 and kdepim3 you can install libkde4, kdepimlibs and kde4-kmail, which are much smaller packages.
7. Mega serious attitude/cultural issues with KDE in relation to bugs.
I beg your pardon?
8. Here to stay - Designed to run with Linux O/S Kernel not particular Desktop.
The KDE project celebrated its 10th anniversary last year, and is larger than ever. Additionally we design to run with any *nix kernel, and KDE 4 will bring KMail and family to OSX and Windows platforms, to ease users' migration to a completely Free Software desktop.
9. Add-on GPL - so many of them - seems like they are common place and should fulfil your "scripting needs". 10. Standard Mbox and Vcard formatting of files.
Check - for KMail and Evolution too, I think
12. Standard GPL on whole package.
Check. GPL and LGPL on libs, like Mozilla*.
15. GUI current issues with Evolution KDE desktop.
?
19. No backward updates of suse.de applications. Example if you have Open Office and run 10.1 you wont get enhancements auto scheduled for version 10.2 updates. - exception security issues.
10.2 is the update to 10.1. But we do provide these backward updates on an unsupported basis in the KDE:Backports obss repository.
