For me, when I put the Category in the fixed attributes for reply, I see the
Category but when I actually try to send the message - it says Category not
entered. I am sure I am doing something very stupid. Please help.

No, it was a bug, which I could reproduce now. I fixed it in revision 1.554. It will
be contained in the next release.
  951   Fri Feb 18 08:43:42 2005 Question Anand Senguptaanandss@iucaa.ernet.in Linux How to import previous emails to elog ?
Hi

We have setup a elog server and would like to import a bunch of emails as
elog entries. Is there some way we can do this ? Since there are hundreds of
emails, it is not possible to post them individually as new elog entries.

Many thanks,
Anand.

For some reason it looses the "m" so line 5 instead of having
"hh:mm" has "hh: m"


Please ideas ;)

Yes, this is controlled by the variable NAME_LENGTH in elogd.c, which is
currently set to 1500 characters. You can try to increase this and recompile,
but at some point you will produce a stack overflow and elogd will crash. So
the current length is a compromise.
