[SOLVED] Sup email client 256 colors support

I've installed sup email client (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/sup-git) and wombat theme (https://github.com/mklinik/sup-colorscheme-wombat) for it. But everything become red-colored in the background and white-colored for text (I'm using rxvt-unicode and it has 256-color support so things should work find). I tried to google but found nothing.
I though there is issue with support 256 colors in ncurses so I rebuild this package with necessary flags from pkgbuild: https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit … es/ncurses and installed it. But due to version differences gem file didn't build after it with message "error while loading shared libraries: libncursesw.so.5: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" (and also really much stuff broke so I hardly restored original ncurses).
Somebody know the way to use sup with 256 colors in terminal?

Not causing problems down the track is the exact reason given for why you should use Xresources to set TERM. The consensus seems to be that the terminal emulator should be the one to set it and using Xresources is one way to do that.
However TERM is set - Xresources, arguments, .bashrc - all that matters is that the capabilities defined in the terminfo file match the actual capabilities of the terminal emulator. Having the terminal emulator do it at least gives it the chance to match capabilities. It also prevents TERM from getting set to the wrong value for other terminal emulators or virtual consoles.
(Also, one does not "use terminfo" to set TERM. Terminfo uses TERM to tell terminal apps the capabilities of whatever they're outputting to.)

[SOLVED] Web Email Clients are unable to connect to IMAP

I have an quite weird problem.
I have an local IMAP Server here on a test machine.
Kmail can receive emails and everything works fine.
Every other Email Client (Evolution, Squirrelmail, Roundcube) can not Receive emails, even with the identical settings.

Does Flex support 256 color displays?

Hi all,
Does Flex / Flash officially support 256-color displays? I
can't get the Image control to display any images at all when the
display is set to 256 colors.
I've tried PNG, GIF, and JPEG images with monochrome, 16
color, 256 color, and 24-bit palletes (in every combination the
formats allow). They *all* work fine if the display is set to
15-bit color or higher, but *none* of them work if the display is
set to 256 colors. I would have thought at the very least that the
Flash player could show a monochrome image on a 256 color display
Does anyone know if this is a limit in the Flex control, or
the underlying Flash controls? Could I solve it by using some Flash
control directly?
FYI, this the problem exists on both machines that I have
tested so far. Both using Windows 2000, with both IE7 and FF1.5.
Any ideas? Thanks!
Paul

OK, so this definately looks like a bug in Flex / Flash when
running on 256 color displays.
Really simple Flex projects that contain nothing but images
like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
layout="vertical">
<mx:Image source="
http://domain/image1.gif"
/>
<mx:Image source="
http://domain/image2.jpg"
/>
<mx:Image source="
http://domain/image3.png"
/>
</mx:Application>
Don't show anything at all, but if you throw in a few images
via a Text control such as:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="
http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"
layout="vertical">
<mx:Text width="450" height="75"><mx:htmlText>
<img src="
http://domain/image1.gif"
/>
</mx:htmlText></mx:Text>
<mx:Text width="450" height="75"><mx:htmlText>
<img src="
http://domain/image2.jpg"
/>
</mx:htmlText></mx:Text>
<mx:Text width="450" height="75"><mx:htmlText>
<img src ="
http://domain/image3.png"
/>
</mx:htmlText></mx:Text>
<mx:Text width="450" height="75"><mx:htmlText>
<img src="
http://domain/image1.gif"
/>
</mx:htmlText></mx:Text>
<mx:Text width="450" height="75"><mx:htmlText>
<img src="
http://domain/image2.jpg"
/>
</mx:htmlText></mx:Text>
<mx:Text width="450" height="75"><mx:htmlText>
<img src="
http://domain/image3.png"
/>
</mx:htmlText></mx:Text>
<mx:Image source="
http://domain/image1.gif"
/>
<mx:Image source="
http://domain/image2.jpg"
/>
<mx:Image source="
http://domain/image3.png"
/>
</mx:Application>
Then all of the images will appear - all of those embedded
into the Text controls, as well as those embedded into the Image
controls. Note, it seems that there needs to be "significantly"
more Text controls than Image controls for this to work... but I
haven't really narrowed that down.
Also, when the Text controls are not used, it seems that
popping up Alert boxes cause the images to display correctly until
the dialog box is dismissed, and then the Image controls disappear
again!
Finally, I've found that I can get the Image control to work
reliably (so far) by itself, if I simply set the height or width to
be at least one pixel less than (not greater than) the real image.
So, for example, my image is 450 pixels wide, by 75 pixels
high. So, of the following four Image controls, only the last one
works!
<mx:Image source="
http://domain/image1.gif"
/>
<mx:Image width="450" height="75" source="
http://domain/image1.gif"
/>
<mx:Image width="451" height="75" source="
http://domain/image1.gif"
/>
<mx:Image width="449" height="75" source="
http://domain/image1.gif"
/>
Once again, all of these behaviours only occur when the
display is set to a 256 color mode. Everything works as expected on
15bit+ color modes.
So, I guess I should file a bug report now?

Problem with email clients- BT support clueless

Hi. I've been having a bizarre problem since migrating to the new BT mail. About 2 weeks after the migration, all of 3 of my email clients (thunderbird on a Mac decktop, outlook on a PC laptop, iPhone) started reporting the "server does not recognsise username/password" error. I followed through the online BT mail help instructions to make sure all of the email account settings were correct, which didn't help. I can access BT webmail directly with my username/password and via that changed my password, then updated it on my email clients. Initial joy! It worked and my clients could access my email accounts again. 24 hours later- same problem with all of my clients- server does not recognise username/password. The only way I can get them to work again is to repeat the process of changing my password via webmail, then updating the password on my email clients. This allows access for about a day, after which I get the same username/password error.
Eventually after about a month of this I decided to phone BT support. What a painful process. The guy on the other end of the line did his best, but unfortunately his English wasn't great. It took about 50 minutes of circular conversations for me to explain the problem. Eventually his anwer was that because the webmail was working properly, the problem must be with the email clients, which he couldn't help with. He advised me to take my laptop/iPhone/ to a local engineer to figure out what the problem must be. By this time I was really frustrated and asked to speak with the supervisor. He agreed that a) because the problem was with all three clients, and b) because changing the password on webmail and updating them then allowed them to work, albeit temporarily, that it was highly unlikely that the problem was with the client setup. However, he said that he wasn't able to help any further as my webmail is working properly!
Can anyone help. Has anyone else had this problem? Any ideas? How do I get BT to fix this and who do I complain to if they can't?
BT- outsourcing support abroad seems like a good idea. It isn't worth the loss of goodwill. Bring it back.

Thanks for the advice, but I'm afraid this makes no difference at all to the problem.
After posting, the problem sorted itself out for a few weeks, it's back again today. Reading all of the other posts about the disaster which is the new bt mail system, I've decided just to leave it for a few days. It's obviously something at BT's side (although the support try to deny it). By the way, the support is totally useless. Promises to call back not kept, technically clueless etc.
If this keeps up I'm just going to go to gmail or some other email provider.
To clarify the situation can you please do the following concentrating on your PC Laptop.
1. Wait until you get the failure on Outlook.
2. Switch off (ie power down) your Mac desktop and Iphone.
3. Try Outlook again.
4. If the problem still occurs then login to webmail and logout WITHOUT changing your password.
5. Try Outlook again.
6. After 5. you can power up your Mac and Iphone
Please report back confirming you have done 2. and the results of step 3 and 5 including any failure messages reported exactly with any personal information xxxx out and not deleted.

ARD 2 with 256 colors client computers

I am running ARD 2.2 and when I connect to a client computer that is running in 256 colors I don't get a clear image of that screen. What I get looks like four tiny distorted images of the screen that I can do absolutely nothing with. Unfortunately, we are running some old OS 9 software that requires 256 colors so I can't change that. Is there anything I can do on the administrator side to make those screens more visible? Any suggestions are much appreciated! Thanks!

You don't seem to be using any of the afterimage features so could could just use the lighter community/rxvt-unicode-256color package (which does not have this problem).
Just a guess but adding the following to your .Xdefaults may fix the issue.
urxvt.termName:rxvt-256color

[Solved] 256 color term causes color glitch

Hello,
I'm having a strange (to me anyways) issue with 256 color terminals. The issue appears under xterm-256color and rvxt(-unicode)-256color, but not under any of the 8-color terminals I've tried.
A bit of background, if it's relevant: this is my second machine running Arch. It's an Asus netbook which I intend to use for schoolwork-related stuff (therefore, no need for X or a DE -- just console tools). I'm trying to get a 256 color term working because I use emacs, and mc a lot, and they both have nice 256 color themes I'd like to use.
However, when I use a 256 color term, the following happens:
The universal issue is that the colors are wrong -- lots of them are the same blue and grey color repeated again and again. This is I think what is causing emacs/mc and others to do all of their colored highlighting in an unreadable mess of these same colors everywhere. The issue particular to rxvt-unicode-256color (and not rxvt-256color) is the other effect shown in the picture -- the text becomes 'distorted' into incorrect characters. The text typed in on the left, for example, are two ordinary sentences.
Maybe what I'm looking at in the unicode term is two unrelated issues... I'm not sure. In any case, if someone could point me in the direction of a solution or offer some insight, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks!

You've caught me redhanded, but more importantly you've finally given me a new name to look into. After several rounds of tic-terminfo-toe, I'm satisfied that as trilby says there simply is no way to get the full 256 color range out of the tty without some x in the middle. This leads to more questions (where's the equivalent of inittab for systemd, where does term get set to xterm anyway (when not in the user's rc's at least, why did it work better through pts, can I achieve 256 in pts without forwarding x, where do I find an 8-color vim syntax scheme that won't burn my eyeballs, etc), but the topic question is resolved. Thanks!

List of email clients/address books that will sync with palm desktop 6.2

Is there (and if not, I think there should be) a list somewhere of email clients whose address books will sync with a palm Treo (palm Desktop version 6.2)? I have been happily using various palm handhelds for about 6 years now and have been syncing the address book with Mozilla and now Thunderbird for the last couple years. I currently have an m130, but it's time to upgrade to a "smart phone" as I'm tiering of carrying around two devices. Unfortunately, the Treo requires palm Desktop version 6.2 which is not compatible with the Thunderbird palm sync. I have had the idea that Outlook (which I've never used or been exposed to) will sync with palm, but something I read gave me the impression that I would need to buy some third party software to make that happen, plus the $110 they want for Outlook. I would like to think there are other choices for someone who just wants to sync their smart phone with their email client's address book. It seems that such syncing ability would be esential to palm's sales and that a listing of all such syncing possibilities would be extremely beneficial to sales, particularly for new sales to people aren't already insiders on this sort of topic. The lack of ability to sync with Thunderbird may just cause me to stick with my old m130 awhile longer and give up on the idea of a nice new smart phone.
Post relates to: Palm m130
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Wow, thanks a bunch! You just saved me from a long, involved, and discouraging search for an alternative. I'm using WindowsXP, palm m130, palm desktop 4.1, Thunderbird 2.0.0.21 and Thunderbird's palm sync conduit palmsync-2.0.0.x-wsm . I'm wanting to purchase a Treo 700 on ebay, but went to the palm site, clicked on the support link, then the Treo 700, then the downloads tab and it directed me to desktop 6.2, which made me believe I would have to use that to sync a treo 700.
I do wish that both palm and Thunderbird would talk more about the palm Thunderbird palm sync. Unless you're a real geek or very determined (I'm the later), you're not likely to find out that such capability exists. I can't believe I'm the only one out there who needs to have my email client address book contacts with me all the time, so there has to be others who are looking for this.
Next stop, ebay - I have a smart phone to buy.

Adobe elements 11 Organizer. Setting Outlook 2010 as email client. (Windows 8 OS)

When I try to setup outlook 2010 as email client in the preferences Adobe services is the only option that will show up in the lookup list for selecting an email client. Is there some kind of issue between Adobe organizer and Windows 8?

MCOOK1155
Using my recently obtained Windows 8 64 bit, I have not been able to get Photoshop Elements 11 Organizer Share File Attachments or Photo Mail to work. From what I have read, Windows 8 has a problem with POP servers. But I suspect that what we are encountering goes beyond that.
At the onset, my only choice was Adobe Email Services for the Email client. After I installed Windows Live Mail 2011, I then had the choice for EMail Client of Windows Live Mail 2011 as well as Adobe Email client but neither solved the problem of no email generated.
a. For Adobe Email Service, used three different email addresses, got valid verification codes for each, was told by the program that I was good to email, yet after the email was prepared, no email with send button was generated for emailing.
b. I have looked at the system with two different anti-virus program...first McAfee and then Windows Defender.
c. I have changed the send to email addresses.
d. I have had no better luck using Windows 8 built in Mail app. In fact, my lack of success with the Photoshop Elements Photo mail feature and the Windows 8 built in Mail app was the reason for my looking for alternatives.
On a comparative note, when I use Photoshop Elements 11 in Windows 7 64 bit, I have the same problem with Adobe Email Service as the Email client. However, if Windows Live Mail 2011 is the Email client, no problems..email generated and sent successfully.
So based on my result, I would say that the answer to your question
"Is there some kind of issue between Adobe organizer and Windows 8?"
is Yes.
If Photoshop Elements 11 support says there should be no problem with this feature in Windows 8, then I would also be interested in knowing the details of its use of the feature to get the expected Photo Mail and File Attachment results.

Email client and calender for StarOffice

Just purchased StarOffice 8. Was puzzled to discover that there was no email client and calender, as there was in Star Office 5. What to do, what email client and calender shall I use? Is Sun recommending Thunderbird, or anything else? How do I get it?

Thanks to the folks at the Microsoft Outlook for Mac Community who solved my problem!
While I am unsure what causes this problem, once I added the user who is receiving spam from me to my Macbook Address Book App, then emails sent using whichever mail client are no longer tagged as spam.
To me this points to a Mac/OS X problem because both email clients - Outlook for Mac and Apple Mac Mail have the same challenge, regardless of the email delivery method used- Exchange or POP.
Shame on the rude folks at the Apple Support line who told me to reinstall the OS before anything else.

Email client help needed

Hello all!!
I have changed from windows based laptop to a mac laptop, I thought it would be better, but so far, it has been a tough problem, my problem is too many programs are just windows based, but that has been solved with parallels..
now the main problem lies with my email workflow, as I have been using outlook for a lot of years, I am really used to it and its functionality, but now... I am getting head on with this issue, I cant sync the contacts in my outlook program with my contacts in the iphone (if this was a small problem I would do it manually but I have over 3,000 contacts in my outlook program that I cant dispose of) and I need them to be readily available within my iphone and viceversa.
I think I have to give up trying to sync outlook and mac contacts as I believe there is no option to do that (baffles me..)
please do recommend an email client for mac, that I can:
-sync all my previous emails from the past years (this means almost 10gb of pst files from outlook)
-be able to sync contacts and calendar in the laptop and the iphone and obviously ipad.
-be able to filter and search for anything within the email client
-be able to work as seamless as possible or similar to outlook.. (i never liked mail from mac)
any ideas? any help will be very much appreciated!!!!
thanks!!!!!

KiltedTim
1, I will try and change that to oulook, but as that is by far not my primary email, there are no issues with that email account, all the email I have is either personal (cancun.com.mx) or work related (all other domains, pani.com.mx, etc)
I will try and contact this people, but I am afraid this will be a lost battle... they are really backwards...
now, this gives me an idea, do you think that godaddy can do this contact syncing via the server??
I may try and change the service, as I am not ok with my current provider, but godaddy is way expensive and I am not sure it would good economic idea..
and third.. do you recommend anyone? I now that as this is not a country specific issue, I can change to any provider I want, the only issue would be the support if I am in problems, the phone call would be international long distance and not cheap...
mmmmmm got to think about this..

Yahoo email client

Does Yahoo email client support background-color on the <body> tag? Only my client reports the background is White

I know all email clients differ - just need to confirm if it does or doesnt. Anyone any experience of getting a background color to show in Yahoo email?

It does, but I don't remember if it recognizes the shorthand. As a rule I only use full hex codes whenever I do emails. But if you want a good reference for what tags are good, the guys at Campaign Monitor have an excellent guide:

Ok Snake, I'll certainly use the full hex declaration from now. Looks like background-color is supported according to the link but on what elements it doesnt really give much details.

J2ME email clients (POP3, SMTP + sending attachments)?

Hello,
Maybe this topic was already discussed once before in this form, but after having a quick look into it I wasn't able to find proper answer for following topic.
Well, I'm looking for a J2ME email client (open source prefered) which is capable to send *emails with Attachments (csv data or pictures).*
Mail4Me seems to be a candidate referring the feature set and mem consumption, but I'm not quite sure, if
sending attachments is supported....
Maybe somebody in that community can help me or at least can highlight any other packages.
Many thanks in advace!

Hello Mike,
the first thing I thought of was the conversion rules in SCOT and I don't know of any other option (customizing) that could affect the way it works.
I have solved a similar problem in SCOT w/workflow which went like this:
- The (old) RSWUWFML-report attaches the persistent object reference to the workitem (as the old-style-SAP-Shortcut-Format) that enables the user to execute this workitem from the mail.
- When we installed the new SAP Gui it didn't worked anymore (because shortcut format .SAP changed).
- I have implemented in SCOT a conversion-exit that transformed the attachment into a .SAP-Shortcut that called a self-made-transaction to execute this workitem.
So, if no one else has any good idea of what to do about, I would propose to use a conversion exit in the SCOT. This scans for a FOL...object reference, uses some kind of function module to retrieve the content as text and then outputs a .txt-Attachment. This should work (but is more effort, as well).
Best wishes,
Florin
