Fwd: How can I read Binaries
Been using Leafnode for about a year in a simple configuration. Subscribe to a few groups using PAN, copy (bash script) all messages to storage and then locally index (beagle). Whole process is automated for users to see a single page of results from various sources each day without have to use various tools / programs. All is working very well with the script getting bigger and better ......... What I would like to be able to do is allow a user to select a link from a results page and open the message and or picture attached. No idea where to start looking or whether it can be done? Leafnode / Script on unbuntu with users on XP. Not strictly linked with leafnode but thought I would chance it. Any advice on the way forward gratefully received. Regards Baz

using external scanners in leafnode2
Hello all, Glad to see there's still some life to leafnode. I couldn't satisfy my addiction to Usenet without it. (OK, well, I could, but it wouldn't be as easy!) Anyways, recently I've been thinking how nice it would be to be able to scan all new messages with SpamAssassin or other tools commonly used to scan email. Especially with all the crap that emerges from that haven of spammers known as Google Groups. :-P Many of these tools, like spamc for SpamAssassin work with stdin and sometimes stdout and as such should be relatively easy to integrate. Quickly looking over the leafenode2 source code, I had initially thought that the way to patch things would be to modify readfilter() in filterutil.c and struct filterentry in leafnode.h to allow adding new actions to the filters file. However, while trying to follow through store_stream() in store.c, it seems that store_stream is made to split out the header and then run the filters on just the header and then use that split off copy of the header to figure out final file locations/links, xref/xover data and so forth. I had hoped that this would be an easy patch, but is not to be. To me, the filters file seems to be the logical place users would specify scanners like SpamAssassin or ClamAV, but things are just not ideal for adding a filter that would necessarily modify the post in the process. Are there any suggestions as to why I might do to make a patches that would stand a chance of getting added to leafnode2? Scanning my incoming(Continue reading)
