For 20 years I've enjoyed Mutt as my primary mail reader. I used its
'bounce' feature to deal with HTML mails, sending them to a webmail
program on a different server. But now the jellyfish anti-spam daemon
won't allow me to do that; it rejects my bounced emails because "From:"

Hi, All -
I need the best way currently available to operate my brother's computer
in the next room through my computer. I think we're both running Debian
11, the stable version for me, the testing version for him. I've tried
ssh -X. It does work but only for a short time, then the connection

Two days ago I restarted my GUI when I saw the disk swap file was growing
too large. On logging back in I found Firefox's appearance was different
and harder to work with. Menu bar and Bookmarks toolbar have larger fonts
than before, and F

Hi, Folks -
On reboot after upgrading from buster to bullseye, my AOC monitor,
connected via DVI, is showing "Input Not Support" on non-GUI tty1-tty6 -
but, tty7 is successfully running the GUI (xfce4 in my case) and it shows
up fine on that same monitor.
With buster, I had done some tweaking to
Lately a script that has worked well and as intended for years and years
has begun doing something odd. When archiving a bunch of flat files,
instead of keeping the creation timestamps on those files, it stamps them
with the date and time of their being moved.
Why that's happening is a separate i

Thank, Jeremy. But - is /dev/sda1 mounted at this point? Isn't it being
indicated to us that it can't be successfully m
My brother's Debian system suddenly says on attempt to boot, "/dev/sda1:
UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY:Runfsck manually", and, "inodes that were part of
a corrupted orphan linked list found."
He enters "fsck" or "fsck /dev/sda1", and in a short while gets fsck

I have a server running Jessie (oldoldstable) that has had Squirrelmail
1.4.2 (installed manually) on it for a very long time. At some point,
years ago, SM became confused by a change in charactersets (UTC-8, is
it?), leading to erratic dropping of lines of text. I've just installed
SM 1.4.3 from

Hi, All -
My brother has been issuing "mount /dev/sdb1" prior to backing up some
files to a second hard disk. He lately upgraded to 'testing', and it
appears (from result of running df) that what the system now calls
/dev/sdb1 is what he has thought of as /dev/sda1, the system '/'
partition.

Hi, Folks -
I'm running Linux buster with xce4 desktop. Some applications come up
with font size too small for me to be able to read menu texts, etc.,
notably Libre programs and alsamixer, etc. How can I ge3t larger fonts on
individual programs?
Hi, Karen -
I'm not at all sure this is the solution but I think it's worth considering:

It offers a few interface designs. I use the 'Fast' one, which trims away
icons and other graphic niceties. Since I don't normally use lynx or
elinks, I'm not sure how navigable it is
