If you're going to try to use a Samba link over the Internet, you
_have_ to set up VPN or do some sort of tunneling. I wouldn't know
where to begin to approach that problem. I've heard that getting VPN to
work between Windows and Linux is a pain in the ass.<br>
    

Of course, it is possible to put an open Samba server/share on the internet, 
and rely on Samba's authentication.  Not that I would recommend it.

VPN is very well standardised, and I've had no trouble serving it or passing 
it through firewalls.

Does anybody have a link to the old Apple 'netiquite' file that explains why 
we use the ">" symbol for quoting?  Somebody has aparantly been sold on 
Microsoft's concept of stationery and style being part of email.

   We not talking about firewalls. If you had actually read my simple,
   single paragraph, you would have seen very clearly that I was stating
   that getting MS and Linux to cooperate on a VPN is difficult.

   Concerning your continued asinine behavior: grow up. You are using an
   email client that fully supports HTML email yet you've gone out of
   your way to make it not work. Drop it, already. Read the 10 page
   document I wrote about this that I posted to the list, yesterday. If
   you have a legitimate reason that any of my logic is wrong, then tell
   me what it is -- if your argument is logical, I will stop using HTML
   mail. Otherwise, STFU.

   I am not quite sure whether this email system Horde is designed to
   work this way.
   I would like to verify this and at the same time, I would like to get
   some
   advice to get fixed if it is possible.

   I have Horde installed on my web server and it handles HTML email just
   fine. They appear as attachments when viewing which can then be
   opening in a view window. When replying, it converts it to plain text.
   You cannot write HTML email in Horde.

   A couple weeks ago, someone  in KCLUG mentioned about postfix system
   instead of
   using sendmail.
   I also would like to know whether using postfix can fix those HTML
   issue, I would like to
   use as a HTML format instead of text format only.

   The MTA (postfix, sendmail, etc) has nothing to do with supporting
   HTML email.
