I didn't figure that was a problem, but I thought I would mention it, both from a "this may be your problem" perspective, and (more importantly) a "this is why I really don't want to part from firefox"...especially the adblock plugin.

Celejar, sorry, I thought I was asking just a generic question. Yes, I'm running exim4 under debian squeeze, with SMTP authentication required, and I do have an entry in my /etc/exim4/passwd.client file, and my problem probably has to do with the syntax of the entries. For years I've used a wild c

I'm running 3.5.11 on sid. One of the problems that I have (and maybe one of my problems with performance) is that there are several extensions that I can't live without. I have a slew of them installed, but the main ones I use on a daily basis include: * AdBlock Plus * Readability * Secure Login
