I have JDK and JRE installed, just a bit hesitated to switch to davmail
since I have been using icedove from beginning and it has been really

Hello everybody,
This is my first mail here. I am debian stable user. My Totem cannot
play any type of video, included free format such as webm, ogg, and mkv.
When I open any video, it says, "An error occurred: Could not determine

The researchers' point was that an attacker might be able to remap that memory
page so that dereferencing a null pointer would NOT segfault. (I don't actually
know how feasible this is; I'm just paraphrasing their argument. They footnote
this claim but I didn't bother to read the cited sources.)

Not quite. Citadel and Kolab offer the same functionality, but in a
more secure, modular architecture. Recently OpenChange is a transparent

Hi,
My work email is Microsoft exchange one. It seems that the Microsoft

I use icedove, currently has the ExQuilla plugin to retrieve email, but

So I wonder, how can I retrieve this email?

Second question:
Doesn't memcpy allow for overlapping memory, but strcpy does not? Isn't
this why memcpy is preferred over strcpy?

All,
An application we're using is in need for php5.2 and we lack the time to make
it work with the latest version.
google search shows a lot of 5.3 to 5.2 downgrade for squeeze but not for
wheezy naturally.
May i ask if anyone has done so recently, and if you could provide a how to?
Thanks
