any way of backing up M$ Outlook email account details?
carl0s replied to jonshaw_uk's topic in Off Topic
It is indeed. I don't think I have ever encountered a system where POP3 had been configured (either via internet connection scripts/installation packages, or by the user following support instructions/advice) to use SSL/TLS on the client side. -

d'oh forget all that. It is indeed nirsoft.net that you want to go to, but you want Mail Passview instead. Should do nicely: http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/mailpv.html at least I got my post count up eh -

Alternatively, if that doesn't work (I notice it says pspv supports Outlook 2002 passwords.. doesn't mention Outlook 2003), you can go all technical. Use netcat (search for netcat win32) and set it to listen on TCP port 110. Change the incoming mail server in the Outlook settings to localhost, then do a send/receive or Test Account Settings, and carry out the POP3 conversation with outlook. When a connection is made, you would go: (you type: ) +OK [enter] (then outlook will say): USER yourusername (you type: ) +OK [enter] (then outlook will say): PASS yourpassword then you have the password. Or you could just ring the ISP. -

Use the tool from nirsoft.net to discover saved passwords that are stored in Protected Storage. -
908BHP is £2,300 at newreg, and 140BHP (who would want that!) is £2,100.

The point is that you can vote to kick the current government out.

You must all vote for your local conservative candidate at the local elections, otherwise nothing will change with this over-taxed over-nanny'd country. No point voting for a minority party. It'll either be a labour government again or conservative..

I had a go once, and I have a couple of sites using pfSense which is a FreeBSD based firewall distribution.

I did have a go at Gentoo once, and I got a really cool feeling of super-powers and stuff, and I liked the default hi-res framebuffer console with the gentoo logo at the top, but I agree with you that a good fully featured working desktop out of the box is good enough now and I don't really have any inclination to go back to emerging and all that stuff again.

I think RPM dependency-hell is a thing of the past. yum takes care of it all really well now, and you can do "yum --localinstall ./downloaded-package.rpm" and it'll find all the required deps for a package that you just found on some random website too. I reckon VPN stuff would probably be OK for me now. Network Manager does PPTP and might actually work properly now, but it just works so well from XP Pro. Vista has seriously broken the PPTP support. If you have 15 PPTP connections in your Network Connections folder in Vista, it takes about 30 seconds for the "connect to a network" dialog to even appear. It's totally broken. I should really move over to a proper VPN protocol instead of PPTP. I know about evolution-exchange, but it's a waste of time. It doesn't work right and it uses HTTP/WebDav or whatever it's called (OWA). There's now a proper MAPI implementation on the way, some sort of collaboration with the samba folks (http://www.openchange.org/ ). I'm interested in the NetSupport thing though. Last time I looked there was a client available, which I suspected was just a tweaked VNC, but no Control. I'll have another look. Thanks for the heads up I'm still a newb myself though really because like I said, I have previously always reverted back to Windows. But this time it's a permanent thing and I'm very happy. I still have XP on the laptop for now and that suits me.

yeah! I had no idea what the hell I was doing though, but I eventually got X started with twm (i think) and I was like "eugh. that's ugly!" Getting a dialup connection to the 'net was a milestone though (ppp chat scripts), and then lauching ircii. I just tried to shoot a video of my desktop to show the virtualization stuff, but I think it's gonna look crap. See what I can do now.

If you like eye candy type stuff, another neat thing to look at is Screenlets. There's an Ubuntu magazine (PDF) here too: http://fullcirclemagazine.org/ that's where I found out about screenlets from. It's a bit MS-bashing in its writing which is a shame but still an interesting read.

It's absolutely the future With thanks to Vista, there's never been a better time to switch! I have played with Linux for years. First time was when I was downloading slackware floppies via dialup. I've always given it a go, but always ended up switching back to Windows for various reasons. Currently these reasons are NetSupport Manager pc remote control & PPTP VPN connections, and Microsoft Outlook for Exchange Server. There is now a proper MAPI-RPC module in development which will give native Exchange connectivity to Evolution & maybe other non-MS PIMs. With the virtual machine setup (explained a bit below), I have no need to switch back. Lately (last two years), I have always tried Ubuntu because it's meant to work out of the box with proprietary stuff like MP3, WMA, Flash Player, proprietary (ATI/nVidia) graphics drivers, proprietary wireless drivers etc. This means those things which aren't open-source just work. With Ubuntu, you are presented with a "restricted drivers" dialog box which warns you that you may need to install a proprietary binary driver like a Broadcom wireless driver, or an ATI video driver in order for your hardware to work right. You click OK and it just does it. So, if it's your first time then I would probably recommend Ubuntu, but I would wait a week or so for Hardy Heron (8.04) to come out. Some hardware vendors are very good to open source though. Intel being one of them. If you have a laptop with Intel graphics, you're in the best position. I'm using Fedora 8 and it's perfect for me. I had to go through all the usual stuff of getting proprietary stuff working, but this is all fairly easily explained over at http://www.fedorafaq.org (I am told http://www.fedorasolved.org is the preferred reference now though). For me I think Fedora is better than Ubuntu once you have got over the multimedia codecs/hardware drivers as explained at fedorafaq.org. On this occasion (choice between Ubuntu 7.10 and Fedora 8), things like virtualisation are so much better. Fedora 8 includes virt-manager. With this I click a couple of buttons and it fires up a virtual machine running XP Pro. I close the dialog box and the virtual machine is running like a service in the background. I have a shortcut on my desktop which opens an RDP (MS remote desktop) connection to that machine, and I have that screen showing on another desktop. My desktop appears as a cube (see youtube compiz / beryl for the cube and you'll get the idea). Beryl is no more. It merged back into Compiz as Compiz-Fusion (a sort of compiz extras) AFAIK. Fedora / RedHat give a lot more back, and I can see it being the more successful distribution overall in the end. A lot of the really cool stuff that makes the system what it is, is at least partly thanks to Red Hat. See here for a list of Red Hat contributions to open source in general. The great thing about Ubuntu is that it's really pushing the Linux desktop to people who don't have the time or inclination to have to make things work. IMO a good place to start if you're not ready to switch O/S, is this: instead of using and giving your mates/family dodgy copies of Microsoft Office and Photoshop, get them to try using OpenOffice and The GIMP instead. That way it becomes easier to switch OS later on, and have the tools you're used to. Those packages, and many others, really are up to scratch. It's not like Public Domain software of the Amiga days. It's a moral movement, or something

You sure there's not a digit missing, like BK51 FYS ?

Yeah I figured they were a lot new, and it'll have to be snail mail from the states Or £140 from eBay UK. Bit dear that really. -

Groovy. Just need to find an airbag now Can you get 'em cheap Nic? Found one on eBay USA that might end up cheap but not sure yet. -
Gotta have resolution..

I see what you mean. So it is a little bit fatter, but not as much as it looks. Would you have one?
