Message-ID: <20040714093309.65253FE8C8@numa-i.igpm.rwth-aachen.de> Hi, can anybody tell me about the syntax of an expression for 'group by expression'? It doesn't seem to be a usual regular expression, e.g. I wanted to group all mails having '[scons-users]' in their subject field. But I didn't manage to get such a selection. I tried '\[scons-users\]' but surprisingly that selected all mails.

Yeah, I noticed the same problem. Seems that the strings that are entered for regexp are ccidentally scanned TWICE for metachars, at least for "\". I think perhaps "\[scons-users\]" is getting turned into "[scons-users]" before even calling the regexp matcher, with the consequence that the regexp matches anything containing the letters c,e,n,o,r,s,t,u. Oops! As a workaround, try "\\[scons-users\\]" From maf at tkrat.org Sat Jul 24 23:52:38 2004 From: maf at tkrat.org (Martin Forssen) Date: Sat Jul 24 23:48:43 2004 Subject: group by expression - syntax?

Oops! > > As a workaround, try "\\[scons-users\\]" This is a good workaround. I just fixed the underlying bug in tkrat so that the fix will not been needed in the future. The fix will be in the next update of the cvs version. I am sorry for the late answer, I have been on vacation for three weeks and did not have net access. However I did bring my computer and got some interesting features done. Like and improved database search dialog and forward/bounce of a group of messages. I have also changed the default colors so data areas are white. I have also done a number of minor features and bug-fixes. However I feel that I need to test all these changes for a couple of days first before I spread them. /MaF From maf at tkrat.org Wed Jul 28 07:35:04 2004 From: maf at tkrat.org (Martin Forssen) Date: Wed Jul 28 07:32:00 2004 Subject: TkRat changes uploaded to CVS Message-ID: <20040728053153.3FB0D2EC9@tkrat.org> Hello, I have now uploaded a number of changes to the cvs repository. The changes includes: * New color scheme with lighter gray and white data areas * Forward (separately or as attachments) or bounce a group of messages * The ability to set pgp keys in the address book * Changed how addresses are expanded * Improved database search window, it is now easier to use and one can specify the time period to search in. * Copy messages (like move but no delete) * Added a color icon window * Show filename of attachments in structure menu (right click) * Fixed vertical scrolling of images and html (only if using tcl/tk 8.5) * A number of other minor features and bug fixes.

TkRat doesn't seem to send any mails anymore. It's configured to use '/usr/sbin/sendmail' (which refers to postfix) I've created a fake /usr/sbin/sendmail script which logs all parameters when it gets called. This shows that it is not called. Furthermore postfix' log file doesn't show any send request either. There are no messages held by TkRat and the user is 'online' So, what might be the reason or how to trace what's going on? (This is the CVS version of TkRat which is working on my machine but not on my colleague's machine) Many thanks for a hint, Helmut Jarausch Lehrstuhl fuer Numerische Mathematik RWTH - Aachen University D 52056 Aachen, Germany From maf at tkrat.org Tue Aug 3 12:13:30 2004 From: maf at tkrat.org (Martin Forssen) Date: Tue Aug 3 12:10:11 2004 Subject: tkrat doesn't send mails anymore Message-ID: <20040803101006.7760B2ED5@tkrat.org> On 3 Aug, Helmut Jarausch wrote: > I have a strange problem on 2 machines.

Check how the sending is define for the role in question. /MaF
