I want my MIME DIGEST???
y.sergi
Hiya.... e-groups.
I want my IOMUG MIME DIGEST back..... :-((( Will that be possible with "e-groups"??? Or is e-groups just one more of those "new" and "improved" liberal methods of driving a populace insane?

What is the best way of sending a replyI noticed the same thing and wonder if Mr Luffman may have any control over this. If I select Reply all instead of Reply I get the sender and the list adress. I would proefer to most often reply just to the list. ~~~ Read my contributions <www.insanely-great.com/>~~~-----------Reach me by ICQ# 7162477------------------<<< |

New Entourage Question...
James A.Rodriguez
Hi guys (and gals)...
I've been using Entourage as my main mail client for about a month and have found it almost entirely enjoyable. One problem: in Outlook Express, when you delete a message from the Inbox, it goes to the next unread message (next one down if you have it arranged by Sent date). In Entourage, deleting a message takes me to the next message above the deleted message, which is usually one I've already read and decided to keep for awhile. I then have to select the next unread message manually to delete or keep it (in OE I could just press delete several times to get rid of all the unwanted messages going down the list). Is there any way to change this behavior to the more reasonable OE behavior? I've searched through the preferences with no luck. Any help would be much appreciated... Thanks, --James R.

Re: 7200/90 Power PC

Hi Stacey;

As for your old 7200, I believe www.everymac.com can help you out. The have listings for (not coincidentaly) every Mac ever made, with production dates and original and current resale prices. As for your iMacs, you could be running into two problems. The first is that there were several changes made with Mac OS 9 that made older versions of certain software incompatible with it. One of the mail culprits is Adobe Type Manager. If you have a version of ATM prior to version 4.5.2 it will cause OS 9 to crash upon startup. Another troublesome application is Norton Anit-virus. Again, you will have to have a recent version (ie. released since OS 9 has been available) for it to work. The second problem you could be running into, is that recently, Apple has started making their system CD's machine specific. In other words, the disk is designed to work only with the type of machine it came with. Usually, this will mean that when you try to install something from a disk that came with another machine, you will not be allowed to because the firmware is not the correct type. I hope this has been of some help. Brent Pennington Stacey Roof wrote: Hi, |

Rob, IMHO this upgrade is not worth it, unless you have a significant investment in "extras" on the 7200 - loads of RAM, PCI Cards, second hadr drive etc etc. For not a whole lot more than $500 places like SmallDog Electronics, or MacResQ will sell you an iMac which as a stand alone, not that expandable computer will be way faster than the 7200 is going to be. They're not as good as a new iMac, but the underlying architecture of them is way ahead of the 7200. Then you've still got a 7200 to "retire" to other duties, like Print Server, or your own local file server, or WWW server or somesuch. Or to try and figure out how to sell <g> I know, I have one in my basement, along with 2 6100s and an 8500.

MP3s?
Stella Sloop
With my new iMac, I hoped to be able to download and listen to MP3 files. I have downloaded a few but can't seem to figure out how to play them. Any help?
Also, since downloading Napster, everything seems to be very sluggish: the server, connections, software (Eudora, AOL, etc.). Any connection, do you think? --stella |

Outlook express
PAUL PAVLIK
Here some stupid email questions.
My system is upgraded G3 240 mhz w/ 8.6 On OE v 5.02, i would like to change a few settings. Or move to a different email program. Even upgrade? First of all, my memory allocation is 10mb. However it takes OE about 30 seconds to open a webzine or html mail. I noticed that Netscape Messenger handles the same chore in 5 to 10 sec. When I open up a ezine, i get an automatic connect to the inet. This is very aggravating especially in our school setting. How can I turn this off? All my other memory setting, disk cache etc are default. When I click on new letter/reply etc, I always get a letter size for a 14 in monitor. Thus I always have to drag it open further.

Receiving and Replying to egroup messages
Fred J. Keene
I just modified my membership to send individual messages rather than the digest. I had preferred the IOMUG digest before, because it came as just one message and opening the digest gave all the individual messages. I could then select the messages I wished to keep and transfer them to another mailbox. I have found no way to do this with the egroup digests. I use the utility Burst to extract individual messages from other digests, but Burst does not seem to work with an egroup digest. If anyone knows how to extract individual messages from an egroup digest, please let me know.
Thankfully, I find that individual egroup messages still filter into the same mailbox as my previous IOMUG digests... because [iomug] is still in the header of each message....and my previous filter looked for IOMUG in the header. BUT...if I reply to a message it would seem to go only to the sender and not to the whole group. What is the best way of sending a reply to the whole group as well as to the original sender? I assume that to reach the group I should add the address of iomug@.... Does it make any difference if I add this under TO: or if I put the iomug@... address as a Cc: ? Also, I am concerned that others replying to questions may not think to send to the whole group and the rest of us will miss out on the reply. Perhaps this situation is no different that it was before....I'm just thinking about it now. ...Fred |

7200/90 Power PC
Hi,
I'm looking to sell my old 7200/90 (you know, that odd, non-upgradable model). Anyone know of a site that that can give me a ball-park resale value? Or maybe some of you might know. It has 96 MB RAM. I read in a previous post there there was a site that did just this, but did not get the URL. Also, I have 2 iMacs: #1 is a 333/192 running OS 8.6, #2 is a 450/192 running OS 9.0.4. #2 has fire wire and DVD drive, while #1 does not. I would like to upgrade #1 to 9.0.4 (via the CDs that came with #2) but when I last tried the result was multiple crashes in every application, including the finder on start-up. I gave up and did a clean install of 8.6. My question: Does this have anything to do with the DVD or Firewire Extensions that are being installed? I wiped all those out and even ran ConflictCatcher, but to no avail (CC's assessment was that Adobe ATM was the culprit, but CC is another story)...Could this be an Apple software piracy safeguard? Do I have to purchase a new copy of OS 9 to install on #1, rather than using the CD's that came with #2? Even though I personally own both computers (one personal, one for business) am I supposed to maintain separate software for each one--ethically and otherwise? I realize this is a mouthful--thanks in advance for input, Stacey |

Re: Top menu bar

Hi Virginia;

What application was it? It is probably an extention which can be found and turned off in the Extensions Mananger control panel. They usually include the word "menu" in the name of the extension, but not always the name of the program at least the way you would search for it. This is my first posting to the list. I just subscribed this week. I hope to be able to contribute to the list regularly. I am a Macintosh Support Specialist for Indiana University, and a lifelong Mac user. Happy Holidays to all!

Top menu bar
Virginia Heywood-Jones
A program I recently installed placed a drop down window on the very top menu bar (the one in line with the colored apple). I have trashed the program, used find to discover any other files for the program and trashed them. I still can't get its drop down window off the menu bar.
This is probably something very basic (and outlined in every manual known to mankind) but I still can't figure it out. Help, please. Virginia |

I have a question regarding the font selection for egroup messages.With eGroups, if the list is setup to ban all attachments, HTML formatted messages don't go through to the list. What happens is your formatted message is stripped down to plain text, then eGroups applies it's own formatting afterwards (and adds the ad banner). My advice is to switch to plain text. (My advice to Mark is to find a way to raise the money required for the fee eGroups charges to remove the advertising from the list altogether.) Jon Bonner |

Quicktime 4.1.2
y.sergi
Hiya....
My Computer is a Macintosh Beige G3 minitower, circa 1998, with 266Mhz, 128MB and OS 8.1 I went to the website of my favorite radio talk show host and decided I wanted to try listening to the show online. A message from the website told me, that inorder to listen online, I needed to download MS Media player 6.3 for Mac (yuk), which I did. When I tried to use it, it told me I needed a newer version of Quicktime (I had version 2.1). I went to the Quicktime download site and downloaded the newest version ... 4.1.2. The Quicktime Readme seems to be saying I can do almost anything with sound but fly to the moon. Now, I'm wondering if I really need MS Media player 6.3 and is it possible I could use Quicktime 4.1.2 to listen to the talkshow, instead? Media players and I are complete strangers except for opening those sent-to-me sound and music files with SoundApp and MPEG players like Real Audio which no longer seems to be free. All enlightenment is welcome....:-) I hope I'm in the right pew...:-)... I tried sending to IOMUG at the "old" location and got an "unauthorized" rejection slip. So I'm assuming the moving truck has arrived early at the new destination, known as "e" in my nickname file. I'd heard the move wouldn't be complete till January 1st. Yolanda == |

How can I separate the egroup digest into separate messages? And..What mail client are you using? Eudora? Entourage? Outlook Express? or what? The specific answer to your question depends on what mail client you have. I use Entourage. I subscribe to a number of lists, some digest, some individual messages. With all of them, I have filters or rules set up to route the incoming messages to a folder set aside for that mailing list. To me, that answers your desire to have the individual messages in a separate "mailbox" or folder. You don't need the digest at all, if you route the incoming mail to its own folder to begin with. In Entourage, the mailing list manager can automatically burst incoming digest messages. That's another option; receive the digest, route it to a folder, and automatically burst it. I wrote a script for Entourage that will burst a digest on request if you don't do it automatically on receipt. The program "Digest Viewer" might be an option for you, but you have to save the digest as a text file external to the mail client. -- Peace be with you!
