I have a gmail account. After I installed ubuntu 11.04 cannot use "mail notification" properly. the pop-up windows is like an error in the middle of the screen (instead of the classic and attractive window reside on the right-up screen).
(same problem was in ubuntu 9.04 : [URL])
I have mail-notification installed (using Lucid beta) but for some reason it doesn't send notifications using libnotify, but instead shows a standard gtk pop-up. I have the evolution plugin for mail-notification installed, and in fact the issue is not related to evolution, since I tried setting up mail-notification directly for an IMAP account and got the same ugly pop-up.

From what I've read/researched, one of the favourite methods to get the email notification up is by using sendmail/postfix. I've went through it and learned that they are MTAs. What I actually needed is just a basic email client, and I would email the notices directly to an email address over the internet. Thus, I wont be needing something as complex like sendmail/postfix.
I gotten my hands on "Nail mail". I've successfully configured it to be able to send emails from my linux machine over the internet. However, when I copied the same command lines to nagios's contact.cfg, it did not work.
This is the command line that I'm using. Let me explain what I'm trying to achieve below. Firstly, I would save all the text notifications into a text file(green), and then email it out. The problem is NailMail command (red) does not work on Nagios,but the command line works in the terminal command on my Nagios account. Has anyone attempted using Nail mail with Nagios?
i have tried mail function in php to send email from the local host its work for yahoo but not with HOTMAIL whay ! actually i tried to figure it out,

Followed [URL] ubuntu 11.04 server
I'm running a server with Ubuntu 10.04 and I have installed postfix and courier. The server can recieve mail and I can fetch them using POP, but when I try to send mail it doesn't work. Postfix itself can send email if i telnet from localhost and I am using my ISP as a relay because they block port 25. I'm using outlook 2007 on my client computer and it just says that the server rejects the login attempt and tells me to check my username and password. Postfix listens on port 12 as well because the client connection also has outgoing on port 25 blocked. I have tried to use telnet to connect to the server, and I can connect. This is what I get:

Now what? I've tried searching for the answer but all I can come up with is AUTH PLAIN or AUTH LOGIN, but I don't know what to type after that.
I've been having this problem since 10.6 released, but have until now been successful with the "just use Thunderbird" response. My sendmail server hasn't been changed, but as clients upgrade from OSX 10.5 to 10.6 suddenly mail.app will no longer connects to send SMTP messages through the server. (IMAP connections to the same server using the same user/pass combinations work perfectly) When I look at the logs, things basically stop right after the STARTTLS command.
Google indicates alot of people are having similar problems, but I'm not seeing any solutions. Do any of you administrate sendmail servers where some of your clients are using Apple's Mail.app on Snow Leopard, and if so what settings are you using? At this point, I'm happy to make changes to the server to accommodate Apple's issue, I have too many Mac users connecting to my server. I just can't figure out what to change. I've enabled virtually every possible login authentication combination, and none of them work.
the mail server itself will receive mail, that part works. i'm using dovecot imap to grab my mail, that works. but if i try to send mail from my iphone using an account on that server it doesnt work. this is what i see in syslog: May 15 07:14:52 coax postfix/smtpd[1432]: NOQUEUE: reject: RCPT from mobile-166-137-139-003.mycingular.net[166.137.139.3]: 450 4.1.8 <eppo@customconnexions.com>: Sender address rejected: Domain not found; from=<eppo@customconnexions.com> to=<xxxxxxx@aol.com> proto=ESMTP helo=<[10.25.15.47]>

View 1 Replies View RelatedI can't get rid of the "Mail Notification Properties" Window at startup. Every time the system comes up, there is the window for the settings. It's just empty as I don't want any more mail notifications than Thunderbird has.
I looked into the Mail Notification Properties and haven't found any settings to get rid of the window. And I disabled "Mail Notification" in System > Preferences.
Still this window keeps coming back over and over again.
It even survived the upgrade from Karmic to Lucid. How can I get rid of it?
I use the Gnome Mail Notification Applet and have recently moved from a wired desktop machine to a wireless laptop.
The problem I have is that the Mail Notification shows an error because it tries to check mail immediately, the network hasn't finished connecting at this time though.
Is there a way to add a delay to this? I can't see one.
Or if anyone can suggest an alternative that is just as good (or better) and allows for a delay?
I've been using mail-notification from the repos for ages to monitor my gmail account with no problems. Since I upgraded to Karmic, it's been popping up an irritating dialog window whenever a new mail arrives (as well as the standard notification). how to turn it off without losing all notifications?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've had Mail Notification installed for awhile, but was disappointed by the fact that it tries to check for e-mail before my computer can even establish an internet connection (and then never checks again), forcing me to manually start the program after every boot (an issue others have reported as well).
As a result, I removed the program via Ubuntu Software Center, and tried using cGmail (which I've used before, without issue), only to encounter a bug. I then uninstalled cGmail, and installed Mail Notification again. However, as soon as I started Mail Notification, I noticed that it still had all of my preferences, including my previous e-mail account, saved.
How is this possible? I tried removing it via Ubuntu Software Center, and then again with Synaptic---but still, if I reinstall it, the settings are all still there. I want to completely remove Mail Notification, and all of its settings (even if I decide to eventually install it again), but now am confused as to how to do this.
I am using:
Code:
Ubuntu 10.4
2.6.32-21-generic
Evolution 2.83.3
I have noticed that when I get a new email, it never shows a new mail icon in the panel. I had the same problem with 9.10, and I thought the problem would go away when I upgraded to 10.4. I have checked the properties in Mail preferences:
Code:
Play sound - yes
Display a notification - yes
Indicate new messages in panel - yes
i have installed opensuse 11.3 on my PC. i want to display pop up message when new mail arrives. For that, i have installed mail-notification 5.4 ( which requires libnotify-0.4.4). while building mail-notification,it shows the following error . "src/mn-evolution-folder-tree-server.gob:26:33: fatal error: mail/mail-component.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated. command failed."

I'm using Ubuntu Lucid 64bit. Thunderbird 2 had an add-on for new mail icon notification in the tray, but I haven't yet found a working replacement for Thunderbird 3.
View 9 Replies View Relatedso far 10.04 is great.. coming over from Fedora.. liking what I see... however, question..
Is there any way to get the default mail icon in the top right corner to notify of new mail in gmail? I found an app that does it, gmail notifier or something.. but seems redundant to have 2 mail icons when 1 would do the job.. but not sure how I'd configure it. I see that I can set up evolution but.. I've got tens of thousands of messages on gmail, and it would take wayyy too long to download.. I'd rather it just notify me of new mail and open a browser to gmail when I click it or something like that. So, any way of doing this?
I am using Thunderbird 3.1 with minimize to tray extension on Ubuntu 10.04. When I receive a new mail I expect that the Thunderbird icon in the tray becomes a mail icon.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI run Ubuntu with Unity. I see a Mail Notification applet in the tray that announces unread mail (from Evolution) and incoming IMs from Empathy. I uninstalled both programs, and replaced the IM program with Pidgin. (I don't have a preferred email client yet.)
Now Pidgin lets me know whether I have received new email messages from the services it is connected to. These notifications show up in the Buddy List window. Is there a way to get Pidgin to use the Mail Notification applet instead? I read in their site that "Pidgin was not designed to be an email client" but it would seem that all the pieces are in place to reroute those notifications to the mail notification applet.
Optionally, it would also be cool if when I clicked on those notifications, a browser window would open up to the webmail account the notification came from. (I have both Windows Live and Gmail accounts.)
I have Opera 11.01 installed on Ubuntu 10.10. The "check all"mail function doesn't work even when "include this account when checking manually" is checked.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have just upgraded to F11 (from F9) and most things work pretty well. I can't read DVDs or CDs but I see there is another thread open on that, and VMWare-player has a few problems but otherwise I an a reasonably happy camper. The "new mail notification" in Evolution won't play my sound. Other sound apps work OK (mplayer, amarok etc) and I can play the .wav file in question simply by hovering the mouse over it in Nautilus - so I know it's not a general sound problem (and besides - I have followed Silpheed2k's guide here). In the Evolution plugins dialogue the sound file is selected, but the test button doesn't play it and when new mail arrives the other notification methods (pop up message + blinking icon) work just fine. It worked in F9 with the same sound file.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI currently use mail-notification to alert me to new email, it sits in the system tray. When a new mail comes in it alerts me as such. I DO NOT have to have thunderbird open or running to be notified. I want to replace mail-notification with indicator messages. I want the same functionality that I got with mail-notification. That is, to have an icon sitting in the notification area that alerts me when new mail arrives. I do not want to have thunderbird open for this to occur.
I have lib-notify installed. I have the notify add-on installed in thunderbird, I have indicator-messages installed. I have thunderbird.desktop in /usr/share/applications I have a file called thunderbird that has one line which is the path to the desktop file above in /usr/share/indicators/messages/applications/ With this when i click on the icon in the notification area i DO see the listing for thunderbird, but the icon is not correct, it has a black bacground with a red circle in it with a slash. When i click on this item thunderbird launches. I do not recieve notificaion messages (i.e the letter icon does not turn green) unless i open thunderbird and check for messages manually. This defeats the purpose of having a notification in the system tray. Additionally changes made to /usr/share/applicatons/thunderbird.desktop are not reflected in the indicator.
I enjoy the convenience and the simplicity of the mail and chat icons in the GNOME notification bar. But I am not sure I like Empathy; and I certainly prefer Thunderbird to Evolution. Can I use the mail icon to launch Thunderbird, and to be notified of new messages from Thunderbird? Likewise, can I use the mail and chat icons to control and to receive notifications from another IM program like Pidgin?
