Email notification question, posted by Kevin McCarty on Wed May 10 16:14:00 2006
|
Hello,
I've just set up an ELog server for my research group. (Running on Debian, package version 2.6.1+r1642-1)
I have a question about the email notifications. I read through the config file documentation, but couldn't find the answer (maybe I am just unobservant\?) Is it possible to have the email notifications contain only the title of the log entry (as well as the usual attributes), but not the full text or any attachments? I have users who are worried about their email going over quota from ELog's emails, but who nevertheless would like some kind of notification when new log entries are posted.
Thanks in advance! |

Inserting images via Internet Explorer, posted by Elaine Cristina Franchini dos Anjos on Fri Jun 2 21:20:06 2006

Hi Stefan,
I observed that there is a difference between IE and others browsers.
When I use "insert image" button in Netscape, for instance,
it creates automatically a tag like [IMG]elog:1/1[/IMG] and
includes an attachment in the ELOG entry.
When a try to do the same action in Internet Explorer, only
the attachment is created without the tag [IMG]elog:1/1[/IMG] .
I did the same test using this forum, and the results are identical
that was related above.
Is it a bug or I'm doing something wrong ?
Thanks,
Elaine |

Hosts Allow and Password File, posted by Jeremy Perkins on Wed Jun 21 18:36:06 2006
|
| I'm trying to set up an elog that uses a password file using the "Password file = /blah" directive as well as the "Hosts allow = myhost.mydomain" directive. I used the -v command and watched the messages and elogd is recognizing that I am connecting from an allowed host but the login page is still appearing. Is there a way to use both of these? |

Canīt run command "make" in OSX, posted by Mats McLund on Fri Jun 30 13:35:03 2006
|
Hello.
I think to test Elog in Mac G5 with OSX 10.4.6.
In the manual is following installationtext:
"Installation from the tarball:
Download the latest elog-x.x.x.tar.gz package.
Expand the compressed TAR file with tar -xzvf elog-x.x.x.tar.gz. This creates a subdirectory elog-x.x.x where x.x.x is the version number. In that directory execute make, which creates the executables elogd, elog and elconv."
The problem is when i try to run the command "make" in ~/elog-2.6.1 subdirectory. I get following message:
-bash: make: command not found
Now, Im not an "UNIX-hacker" so I will be glad if anyone maybe can help me?
Best regardīs

Hello everybody
This weekend I found that if I duplicate a reply it does not become a reply it self.
Is this on purpouse?
I have been through the source a little (not much time for that) and I can not find a reason where the "in reply to" value is dropped.
Could anyone give me an pointer? |

Use Email From = <string>, posted by Dimitrios Tsirigkas on Wed Jul 19 12:20:34 2006
|
Hi all,
My users have complained about the multiple "I'm away from xxx until xxx" automated replies that they get when they post an entry and notifications are sent with their email in the "From" field. I would therefore like to always use the address specified in the Use Email From line of the configuration file and never the user's address. Reading from the documentation:
The option Use Email From = <string> is used for the "From:" field in the email. Since more and more email servers do not accept invalid "From:" addresses in order to reduce spam mail, it might be important that a "real" email address is used in the "From:" field. By default, the email address of the currently logged in user is used for the "From:" field. If no user is logged in, or the current user has not specified a email address in the password database, the setting of the option Use Email From is used for the "From:" field.
Is there a way to override that default and always use the setting of the option Use Email From?
Thanks,
Dimitris |

Cannot get email to work at all, configuation problem?, posted by Checker Anderson on Sun Aug 13 10:30:40 2006
|
I an new to elog and the only thing I cannot seem to configure correctly is my SMTP information. Here is a sample of my config file:
SMTP host = checkeranderson.com
SMTP username = Checker@realchecker
SMTP Password = eWFod2Vo
I host my own mail server which uses authentication and my password was set using -t on the command line. With SMTP host = I have tried smtp.checkeranderson.com (which is how my mail program puts it) and mail.checkeranderson.com which is how my DNS server has it. The user name and password are correct. When I edit or reply to any topic I get the message "Error sending Email via "checkeranderson.com"" I have struggled with this for hours and I know I must be missing something that would be obvious to anyone else. Can anyone help me? |
