subject: is Tobruk ready yet?

PE>> Tobruk will take packets, [chomp] and toss them into the messagebase.

 AM> Does it work though?  Are you using it now?  How difficult would it be to
 AM> change over from Squish.  I assume it also takes replies in the
 AM> messagebase and packs them up like Squish also does?

1. Yes, there are no known bugs.

2. No, I am running a live system, so I am more hesitant to stick it in.
However, I get very pissed off with Squish sometimes when it corrupts my
messagebase and won't fix it up, so when that happens again, it is quite
likely that I'll tell Squish it can go stick itself, and I'll switch to
Tobruk.

3. You still need to use Squish, Tobruk only takes over one portion of the
mailprocessing (the most important bit).

4. Not yet.

Basically, the best thing that could happen is if you were to try it out
yourself, and let me know if you have problems.  I basically need some beta
testers.  If you are worried about having your messagebase destroyed or
whatever, then what I can do is keep the conferences you collect and are
important to you in my own messagebase, and then if the worst comes to the
worst, you can do a rescan and get the whole lot back.  Let me know if you
feel like ADVANCING SCIENCE AND HELPING THE PUBLIC DOMAIN MOVEMENT!  This
goes to anyone else who is pointing too.  BFN.
