| rfm | cranberry, you can set a pipe in a mail alias or ~/.forward file to have all mail delivered to that command. Used for running all mail through procmail for sorting/filtering. "| command". | 18:07 |
| rfm | cranberry, I guess you could get the deliver-to-a-net endpoint with "! nc host port" | 18:09 |
| cranberry | hi rfm | 18:09 |
| cranberry | I can put bash like scripting in ~/.forward? | 18:09 |
| cranberry | is that file read by the MUA or MTA ? | 18:09 |
| cranberry | because if that'S the case, that's exactly what I'm looking for - as you stated I would just need the email piped into "| nc host port" | 18:10 |
| rfm | cranberry, it's not full script language, just uses the same pipe symbol. the command has to be literal, it's not globbed, substituted, etc | 18:10 |
| rfm | cranberry, of course the command could be a shell script. | 18:11 |
| cranberry | ah, I see. that is super handy to know! do you use a specific mail agent with it? or is it an universal thing? I tried searching but could not really find anything | 18:11 |
| rfm | cranberry, certainly sendmail and postfix do it. it used to be very popular for running all incoming mail through "procmail" for sorting and filtering.... | 18:13 |
| cranberry | I see - Awesome, I will try that. Thank you very much!! | 18:13 |
| rfm | cranberry, also the "vacation" autoreply command... | 18:13 |
| cranberry | oh, I did not know that was a thing on *nix | 18:14 |
| rfm | cranberry, I finally found where this is documented in a ubuntu manpage (assuming postfix which is the usual MTA on ubuntu): "man aliases", which mainly documents /etc/aliases but mentions that the right-hand-side can go in ~/.forward files... | 19:19 |
| cranberry | rfm: nice! I searched for ".forward" and "~/.forward" but only found news articles - lol | 19:21 |
| cranberry | thank you very much! | 19:21 |
| [VMGuy23] | Is there any Wine alternatives that might work better? VM is not the way because my PC is not that great | 20:50 |
| Maik | afaik not | 20:51 |
| [VMGuy23] | Wine barely works, and thats annoying | 20:51 |
| Maik | there's nothing else | 20:53 |
| Maik | what are your system specs? | 20:53 |
| Maik | if VM doesn't work well either, maybe you should have considered a dual boot | 20:56 |
| Maik | [VMGuy23]: what windows apps do you need to run? | 20:58 |
| * Maik can live without them | 20:58 | |
| [VMGuy23] | Maik: A lot of apps won't work, one reason because it runs as admin, another because 99% of librarys are missing (also, AMD Ryzen 3 3200u (i think, how do i check) with radeon vega mobile gfx) Office just... doesnt work. Also, I do dual-boot, but prefer Ubuntu | 21:00 |
| tomreyn | [VMGuy23]: so... why is this system not capable of virtualization? | 21:01 |
| Maik | who needs Office when there's LibreOffice on Ubuntu..... | 21:01 |
| tomreyn | you can check your cpu with cat /proc/cpuinfo | 21:02 |
| tomreyn | RAM with free -h | 21:02 |
| [VMGuy23] | tomreyn: its capabale of virtualisation, but its a slow pc | 21:02 |
| Maik | [VMGuy23]: also with system specs i mean which CPU and how much RAM | 21:03 |
| [VMGuy23] | AMD Ryzen 3 3200U and 16GB ram | 21:03 |
| tomreyn | [VMGuy23]: whats slow about it? the cpu looks good enough. unless the system has thermal issues | 21:03 |
| Maik | and you have issues with a VM? i run a VM in boxes on a old i5 CPU with 4GB RAM | 21:04 |
| tomreyn | 16 gb ram is certainly fine for virtualization if you can spare 2 or 4 for the windows vm running office | 21:04 |
| Maik | i can't really call your pc a low spec one | 21:05 |
| tomreyn | if you forgot the windows license key bound to the system mainboard sudo strings /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/MSDM | 21:06 |
| [VMGuy23] | I have 10sec bootup on a month old install of ubuntu and GRUB takes 5-10sec to show | 21:06 |
| Maik | especially with a CPU that's clocked at 2.6 - 3.5GHz | 21:06 |
| tomreyn | [VMGuy23]: boot time is one thing, but once the system is up, what's slow about it? | 21:06 |
| [VMGuy23] | tomreyn: I often wait 5-10seconds waiting for GNOME to load, on a frozen screen | 21:07 |
| tomreyn | okay, that'S weird. but whats the problem with running vms? | 21:08 |
| [VMGuy23] | tomreyn: Slow. Low FPS. Generally bad performance. | 21:08 |
| Maik | probably a GPU driver issue | 21:08 |
| tomreyn | maybe that's really thermal issues. you should check the system log | 21:08 |
| Maik | gotta love AMD and nVidia... i prefer Intel, less issues | 21:09 |
| tomreyn | if you have a dedicated nvidia graphics chipset in addition to the integrated amd graphics, and have not disabled the nvidia unit then this might be the source of latencies. | 21:10 |
| [VMGuy23] | Maik: yeah I recently failed to install amdgpu-pro because im on 20.10 and its for 20.04 so now I'm stuck with llvm (as it says in Settings/About) instad of what it used to say, AMD Raven2 | 21:10 |
| Maik | [VMGuy23]: but keep in mind that this channel isn't really meant for support | 21:10 |
| [VMGuy23] | Maik: I know, #ubuntu isnt responding though | 21:10 |
| Maik | you know the drill after asking, be patient | 21:11 |
| Maik | same people that are in #ubuntu are also here and in other channels | 21:11 |
| Maik | at least the majority is | 21:12 |
