Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
that you couldn't selectively delete messages from the POP server at all. I don't remember discussing the filter bit.
As far as I can tell, you can do it with a filter in 1.5.0.14 (I'm living off my U3 drive while the computer's down), but no other way. Non U3 versions are at 2.x and who knows what they can do?

Huh. I want to be able to set the default to leave messages on the server, but be able to individually tag messages (once they're on my machine) for deletion from the server. This is easy-peasy in Eudora. Can I do this in Thunderbird?

Not yet, I don't think. But I'll look at the 2.x version when I get home. I have it there on Linux.
This discovery solves 50% of my problem. I'd really like to be able to use Thunderbird--I quite like what I've seen of it in my jury-riggedness of the past few days, but, yeah, individual delete-from-server is a hard habit to kick once you've taken the first hit.
The problem is, I love having a DVD burner in my current TiVo. It's perfect if I want to give someone a copy of a show, or burn something to take on a trip and watch on my laptop....
I suppose if I were truly super fancy, I'd have slingbox. :)
I want to get my mum an MP3 player for her birthday and only have personal experience with iPod. I've heard of Zune, but don't know what else is out there or what would be the most simple device to use to a technologically challenged woman. Any suggestions?
Firefox just upgraded me to Firefox 3, beta 5.
I haven't upgraded. I am always wary of the upgrade. I remember upgrading my window media player, and losing the ability to listen to internet radio. I tried to uninstall the new version and put the old one back on, but it wouldn't let me.
I upgraded, too. We'll see if it crashes less for me.
Firefox, Beta 5:
I'm missing my home icon. It was taken away in earlier betas, relegated to a personal toolbar item, now they removed the toolbar item.
I had to drag my homepage link to my personal toolbar. I can rename it "home" but still? I'm not sure why they decided I don't need it.
There must be a setting, somewhere...
It's still in my bookmarks bar...
