Since Gmail now has POP support, I wanted to get the Inbox Monitor for Gnome to check my mail for me. I've put in my details, as per the Gmail help, but it doesn't work.

I put the mouse over the applet, and it tells me that it couldn't connect to the internet. I've even forwarded port 995, which is in the Gmail help thing. But it still doesn't work

yeah... I downloaded Mail Notification 1.0 which looks like a good app, but I can't get that working right either.

I've installed libsoup, as to get the Gmail part of the program to configure, but I also need gmime working. I've downloaded both 2.0.14 and 2.1.9, and compiled both. Then I tried compiling Mail notification again, but it's still telling me that gmime isn't installed, or it can't find it.

    • I restored the default settings to Secure Boot. Big mistake

      By dorf · Posted

      I tried to get the latest secureboot certificate for my old Dell 7010 Optiplex machine.   I restored the default settings to Secure Boot. Big mistake.  Now when secure boot is on. The machine doesn't boot and complains about no booting devises.  The computer's secure boot can't find where to boot and the information apparently has to be entered manually.  Secureboot's settings are now years old and it can't find a new configuration.  What could be done here? There are plenty of files to choose from in the secureboot menu, but I don't know what to put there for each of the four Windows 11 upgraded from 10..... originally who knows what (used machine)

      They need to follow the standard for AAA game but they will go at lowest level for triple a game because will sell more, earn kudos and the milk it for years anyway. look how much they milked gta 5 and how they milked the original 3 - San Andreas and vice city. it is probably going to be a fun game but then they allowed someone to remake classics that somehow were more broken and worse then original i hope they don’t ###### up this one!!!

      In addition to the "sidebar app list" and "Collections" features, Microsoft will also deprecate the "Drop" feature. Before you publish this news and credit another site, here is the original source: https://x.com/i/status/2067838711870439583 .
