[orca-list] Wondering about a few packages

["Chris Gilland" <cgilland1 carolina rr com>]

Have any of you all tried under Gnome to use the Sendspace wizard?  I wonder 
if it's accessible.  I hear, not really, but then it seems like I've heard 
others say, it's a pain somewhere else, but! having said that, it can be 
done with a bit of work, and knowing what you're doing.  Didn't know if 
anyone had kind a sort a gotten it to work, and maybe could at least show me 
as much as they do! know and as far as they've gotten with it.

Second of all, I'm kind a starting to get the hang of Evolution.  The only 
reason I'm not using Thunderbird is my mail server is pop3, not IMap, and no 
matter how hard I try, both in the initial setup screen, nor under 
edit/account settings, I cannot for the life of me find where on earth to go 
to switch it to pop3.  Plus, I'm getting so used to Evolution...  The only 
thing about it now that I don't like is, after typing a few lines of text, I 
can't back space.  Well, ok, I can, but, Orca won't tell me what character I 
back spaced over and deleted.  The only way I have found to edit something I 
type is with my arrow keys, and with my ctrl left and right to move word by 
word.  Aside that though, it's fine.

My final question is, I'd like to setup a terminal based e-mail client like 
mutt, or even better yet, Alpine, but, the issue is, at least in Alpine, I 
don't see any way at all, to type in my pop3 e-mail settings like my account 
name/password/pop3 server address etc.  I see where the domain goes, and 
where my smtp server, I think it is, goes, but, that's it.

I know that in the old days, you had to make a .fetchmailrc file, and I 
think, that went in your home directory, someone correct me if I am 
rememberring wrong, but, God dang me if I could remember how to write one of 
those.  I don't remember even the slightest thing of how the file went, and 
a few google searches are not really giving me anything that seems all that 
helpful.

Knowing all you people on here, I'm sure someone is still a fan of the 
terminal, and could show me how to get this working.

Thanks.

Chris.
