[gentoo-user] Can't mount NTFS read-write
Stroller
It's kinda late by my erratic bodyclock, so I'm assuming I'm doing
something stupid. Can anyone slap me with a kipper, please?
(Or should I be using the fuse NTFS driver?)

Don't try to write with the in-kernel NTFS driver.

Yes, most definitely.

By the way: Which one is better (or are they the same?): ntfs-3g or
ntfsprogs with USE="fuse"?

ntfs3g is the driver, ntfsprogs contains the mkfs, resize, fsck etc.
programs, the fuse USE flag enables support for fuse filesystems.
In short, you need both.

Sometimes the mail server filters them out. I read that ?gmail? and a
few others do that. Not sure why or how to over come it tho. Somewhat
common from my reading.

In gmail we usually see our own posts because it composes the
conversations not only with the received messages, but also with the
sent ones (in the sent messages label)

Please, don't hijack threads. It is irritating for people using
thread-aware e-mail clients. Even more it is offending to the original
poster, because they get answers to your question instead of theirs. In
case you didn't know, it happens when you use "reply" for sending a new
question instead of composing a "new" message.
*/
On the subject.
My guess is you can't see your own messages because your server filters
them. It is known to happen with Gmail accounts. As a workaround you
could register two accounts - one for reading and one for sending
messages as described in the documentation:
http://www.gentoo.org/main/en/lists.xml
"...Mailing List Mini-FAQ
I subscribed to a list using my home email address, but I can't post to
the list from work. What do I do to fix this?
To reduce spam, all of our lists are configured to only allow posts
from official subscriber email addresses. Fortunately, mlmmj supports
"nomail" subscriptions, allowing you to register alternate email
addresses that can be used only for posting to the list. Here's an
example of how this works. Let's say you subscribed to the gentoo-dev
list as j...@home.com, but you'd also like to post to the list using
your ja...@work.com email address. To do this, send a message (as
ja...@work.com) to gentoo-dev+su...@gentoo.org You should
then be allowed to post to gentoo-dev using both your home and work
email addresses...."

Is that so? Then will you, please, explain how do people get their
original messages back?

There's a copy already in their outbox? And a sane mailer (like say
kmail) will have put the sent copy there already.

What does this have to do with what the list server does?

That's unfortunate as it screws up GMail's conversation feature - also
the list email serves as confirmation that your message has got
through.
Can this setting be changed please?

OK, lets go back to step 1, and try to think it through this time.
- a user sends a mail from account X to list Y
- same user is also subscribed to list Y from account X
- if list Y sends a copy of the mail to the user at account X, then the
user has a duplicate because by definition *he already has the
original*
- it is completely reasonable to give the list admin the option to
enable or disable this behaviour
Sometimes the user does want a copy of the post to come back as a
verification that the message was indeed fully processed by the list
server. That would be an issue between the user and the list admin.
Florian Philipp
I doubt it works that way. I always get mails back from the list, I can
forward one to you, the headers should be proof enough. Of course it's
possible to place a copy of your sent message in your inbox (and I know,
kmail's got an option for that) but that's not standard behavior. It's
merely a workaround for broken filters like gmail's.

Agreed. However, Gentoo lists do send back the messages to the senders,
and this is unrelated to the broken way gmail handles list messages.

Yes well, I am using thunderbird and my mail is stored on a remote
server on my lan, so I can check my mail from any machine in my house.
So yes, I am using Google Apps to host my e-mail, it's convenient for me
and meets me needs and requirements. But the question remains, is there
an options for my to enable to be sent a copy of my own posts to the
lists(s) that I belong to, as a verification *and* for Thunderbird to
properly sort the conversation. TB does infact differenciate somethings,
like when a threads *was* infact hijacked, but after the user got his
answer. I can then sort just that part and isolate it. But because TB
doesn't know where I posted first, it lumps then all together and things
jump around.

I don't think so. The ML software sends (bounces) every message to all
subscribers (except those who had chosen the "no-mail" option). It is up
to the subscribers' server or client to decide what to do with a given
message when/if they catch this message has already been there.
Anyone, please, correct me if I'm wrong.

Of course it does.
That you don't see it doesn't mean the list server doesn't send it.

there is no such setting. The ml sends all mails to all subscribers. So you DO
get your mail back.
gmail does not show such mails, because it is broken. Google for it, it has
been discussed in the past.

That is the way I understand it too. It's not the list mail server that
stops it, it's the mail server on the users end. I'll have a copy of
this email in my sent folder but I'll also get a copy back in my inbox
folder in a little bit too. I also sort mine by threads so it is neat
or the threading will be . . . confusing. I have enough confusion
already.

The original goes in the outbox, the copy from the listserv is filtered
into this folder. I certainly wouldn't want my own messages filtered out
by the server, what if I send from another computer or a webmail server?
