10/26   Sort of amusing (from Enlightenment's configure script):
        checking for mass_quantities_of_bass_ale in -lFridge... (cached) no
        checking for mass_quantities_of_any_ale in -lFridge... (cached) no
        Warning: No ales were found in your refrigerator.
          We highly suggest that you rectify this situation immediately.

10/26   What's the csh setting to allow me to read 2-byte Japanese characters
        in trn?  setenv LANG ??  -- mtbb
        \_ its not a shell-specific thing. YOu just have to make sure
           you have stty -cs8 or something. Then make sure you're running
           kterm on your end.
        \_ Making sure you can read the text that comes with your porn?

10/26   Anybody know if there are online magazines that accept essays,
        articles, commentaries, etc from anyone?  Particularly business
        articles.  I have written some commentaries op-ed pieces on the stock
        market and I'd like to see if they are good enough to be published
        online.  Thanks.
        \_ Is this flame bait?

10/26   Any recommendations for free, POP3-accessible e-mail?
        \_ http://csua.berkeley.edu, <DEAD>uclink.berkeley.edu<DEAD>, http://ocf.berkeley.edu
        \_ http://www.usa.net but no SMTP (outgoing)
        \_ http://www.hotmail.com
           \_ You sure about this? I couldn't find any info about a POP3
              server for Hotmail on their Web site. -slow

10/24   Are there any pubic SMTP servers we can use? I don't want to
        shell out $20 for an ISP just for an SMTP server. thx.
        \_ use localhost sendmail daemon.  works for me.
        \_ How do you get Internet access?  This will likely give you some
           SMTP server.  (Or run Unix on your own computer and be your own
           SMTP server.)
            \_  somehow i doubt it's very likely that people using mail tools
                which require a nonlocal relay would be running unix themselves
                \_ Hence the suggestion, you see.
                   \_ ^would be running^would have the clue necessary to run
                      \_ Mighty oaks from little acorns grow.
        \_ Yeah, I have the same problem.  Use two ISPs, both of which I
           don't pay for - sibling's ISP account and friend's college account.
           Both of which refuse e-mails where the From: line isn't in the
           right domain.  For me the alternatives are to cough up the $ or
           live on elm. :-/  Probably the latter.
                \_ You don't need to run Unix to be your own SMTP server.
        \_ You cheap bastards.  Get your own ISP account.  Sheesh.
        \_ Just forge mail, it's easy
           \_ not without an SMTP server.
           \_ You know, to add to the fun, there's been some suggestion that
              ISP's block outgoing tCP/25 from their dialup netblocks to all but
              their own smtp server, to keep people from dialing in and spamming
              directly.
