(old)Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

Updated email-3.0.5

I've actually been using this for a while, but have just updated to the latest version, 3.0.5, which is quite handy as it lets you send attachments with any filename extension.

This was a great find, thanks everyone

Hee hee hee. I just came across this old thread, and I realise with hindsight that I wasn't far wrong with my worrying... : My partner of the time walked out without warning roughly 8 months later (I heard the door slam in the early hours one morning when I actually was working away on some Puppy project or other!!!). Let that serve as a warning to you other puppians of the dangers inherent in puppy addiction!!! :-)

Anyway, I can especially laugh about it all now - since the "loss" proved to be a lucky thing for me: I moved on long ago and started a new family sigh... Though that may explain why I am not on Puppy forums terribly often nowadays... Family addiction has taken over.

Also, found this thread again because I am currently back using Motion video survelliance program and for emailing the motion detection captures online needed the great wee email CLI client from cleancode.org, which I note has undergone further developments since all of the above.

hahaha. Yes, that gives the long answer. Short answer is to only work on Puppy Linux when your partner isn't around to notice... ;-)

My ex is German, by the way. But I think the issue is probably universal really - as suggested by the remarks of HairyWill, Nathan F and raffy: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 823#729823.

Hi, it hangs at

Connecting to server smtp.gmail.com on port 465
Greeting the SMTP server...

May I ask for help, please?

Thank you,
