Hello
If I set up a global /etc/procmailrc file for using spamassassin, it
seems to be ignored (ie, spamassassin doesn't ever get run).
So is there any setting that needs to be changed / made to the plain
vanilla exim of the testing distribution to allow this?
Cheers,
Sven

Hi all
If I run rsync and there is a a new folder / file on the sending side,
rsync tries to remove that very folder on the receiving side for some
weird reason. This makes no sense to me. If I don't use --delete, this
doesn't occur, but instead files that don't exist on the sending side

Hi all
I have just run update & upgrade and am right now dl / upgrading 5megs
worth of stuff. What I would like to see though is that apt-get shows

downloaded when doing apt-get install package.

sense to stop those runlevel's services and not the new runlevel's

Some Taiwanese git bugging us here or what? This stuff is annoying. What
can be done about this apart from extending our .procmailrc further? :(
