Feature request


Hi,

I'm not sure this is the correct place for a feature request but if it is:
Would it be possible to get a 'hot-key' to spawn a external program and have 
the stderr to be accepted as input for cone at the current cursor position.

This way I could add a dialog script (dialog the tool: man 1 dialog ;-) ) to 
search my ldap address book and have it output the result on stderror. But 
in this generic way there would probably be more uses for it. Maybe reserve 
ctrl-0 to ctrl-9 for this so you can have more than one script?

Cheers,
   Mark

Fwd: 550 error

Sorry, I don't want to post this twice, but I don't
want to wait for a mod to have to approve of it
either.

Trouble sending mail

This is my third attempt to post to this board.

I'm trying to send email from my mailshack.com email
address (which allows pop), but I get the following
error:

550 This user account is not authorized to send
messages with the address user <at> mycomputer.

Why is it trying to send a message using my  linux
username and hostname?  Under SETUP, I deleted
user <at> myComputer, and replaced it with
mailAddress@... and made sure that there was
no mention anywhere of user <at> myComputer in the SETUP
menu, but still it trys to send from my linux user
account.  I even manually opened up conerc and made
sure that there was no reference to user <at> myComputer
there, and still, I get the same results.

Under "outgoing SMTP Server:" I have my correct
outgoing email server (mail.nerdshack.com).  Under
SMTP userid (optional): I have tried:

-just my user name on the server
-my username and domain (username@...)
-a bunch of other silly things

but always, when I try to send a message, it always
attempts to send it with my linux login.

Your mail agent tries to send mail with 'from' address
'user <at> mycomputer'. I am trying to explain:

when talking with myshack.com SMTP server your machine
issues the SMTP command:

 MAIL FROM:<user <at> mycomputer>

and not

 MAIL FROM:<username@...>

The default Cone configuration sends mail using whatever mail server you 
have installed on your machine (sendmail, posfix, whatever).

The typical default mail server configuration, sets the return address on 
locally submitted messages to <username <at> hostname>.

To change that, you need to reconfigure your mail server, or instruct Cone 
to send mail using an SMTP server (specify "outgoing SMTP server" in Cone's 
setup screen).

Re: Trouble sending mail

Actually, I did specify an outgoing smtp server, and
that was why I was going nuts.  I had: 

Outgoing SMTP Server: mail.nerdshack.com
SMTP userid (optional): mailaddress@...

in the setup screen.  Unfortunately it seemed to
ignore the userid.

Well, anyway, the problem has been more or less
solved.  Thanks for the help!
