Title: Ipk For Mutt-based Email Setup
Post by: daniel3000 on April 28, 2006, 08:23:28 am

Hello,

I'm just making an IPK for the mutt-based offline email setup we talked about in the past.

Now I'm looking for a limited number of beta-testers for this package.
The best would be a team of one or two testers for each zaurus model.
The IPK should be installable and usable of at last all SL-C Zauri.
Usage on SL zauri is questionable anyway, since mutt is console-based and you NEED to use the keyboard a lot for all actions.
But of course I don't mind if an SL user also likes to test this package.

So please contact me if you are interested (info at hermocom dot com) providing:

- Your Zaurus model
- your Linux "console-mode" knowledge level

Thanks!

daniel

oops, first question arises:

On a hard-drive-less Zaurus (C1000), is there a directory /home/zaurus/Documents?
If so, where does it point to?
If not, where should one put mail files on a C1000? How large is the home partition?

Thanks

Yes, there's a /home/zaurus/Documents in the flash memory.
The home partition on my C1000 is 64 MB large.

So this Documents folder is on an ext2 partition, right?
Not FAT as on the hard drive zauri?

Thanks
