Just create labels instead and use the "Move to" drop down to put it in the folder. Then just click on the label title in the label list on the left side of the screen (might be under the "X More" drop down) and you can view all the mail with that label, or in that folder. You really can make it work the same way. I felt the same as you when I first started using Gmail but then I realized the power of labels. You can make them work like folders but you can also do so much more like cross referencing mail. Can you put your email into two folders? No but you can apply more then one label to it and find it under multiple relevant categories. It really is quite handy.:)
I don't have an issue with Sophos Endpoint Security and I have never changed my SIDs. Many people told me that it would break things but I never ran into an issue and always questioned why it had to be done.
Why? There are translators. The problem is that you are cutting people off as they can't type in Chinese characters (I know its possible but you have to install extra bits to do so, and know what your typing and how to type it on a latin keyboard).
I have friends in a few different non-latin alphabet countries and family in one. If their email addresses were in their alphabet I likely wouldn't be able to email them easily even though we, mostly anyway, correspond in English.
A question for anyone here, which if any of those PDF readers works properly with PDF forms?
*** I'm not flaming, I really want to know. I would love to not have to install Adobe Reader as its big and slow but we use a lot of PDF forms here and so far the alternatives I have tried just don't work with them or don't work right/well.
Also, whats to say that the rules that the universe plays by don't change? Rules are thought to be known facts and we assume that those facts don't change but how can we know for sure?
Me too. I can't wait to never see another 300 MB HP scanjet driver that installs a 5 MB driver and 295 MB of undisclosed and unwanted crappy software.;)
10.4 server did suck, 10.5 sucks less though I didn't use it as much either. What always annoyed me was the half configuration allowed by the gui. But it you tweak the config files manually you break the gui stuff. That and whatever they did to screw up their Samba build.:/
I don't use it any more, went to novell now, but I kind of wonder what 10.6 might have fixed in that area.
I never saw that on my 10.4 laptop. When I would forget to unmount the share it would just give me one message when I brought it out of suspend about not being able to connect and the share would disappear. Can't say for 10.5 as I haven't had that situation occur. Not doubting you though as I have seen one system do crazy things and another (of the same system, OS, software, etc) act just fine.
We have about 60 P4 1.6GHz, 256 MB, WinXP boxes here running the Novell stuff and I have never seen it take any more then a few seconds to bring up the login interface after hitting Ctrl+Alt+Del. I will say that I clean up my windows installs though, so that may make a difference. Also adding another 256 MB and bringing them up to 512 can help a lot. If you try to login right after the Ctrl+Alt+Del screen shows up, before Windows is done loading crap in the background, it will be a bit slower but that is true even without the Novell stuff. Also if your actual login is slow it might mean you have some network congestion or that the server is under heavy load. The Novell stuff does have a bit more overhead but you have to consider that a lot of the AD stuff is built into windows and is starting behind the scenes whether you use it or not. Its like MS Office starting quick, it does the same thing and has stuff running in the background so it seems faster. So I guess if your having those issues my suggestion is look at the Windows install (services, startup items, themes, etc) and the network (10MB, 100MB, 1000MB, congestion, CRC errors, server load) because you shouldn't have to wait one minute for the login box to come up.
I haven't used Hyper-V but VMware ESXi does what you described. I can use more then one NIC and run multiple machines at the same time. I can even devide resources and give priority.
That happened with a new science teacher here. He found some spilled Mercury (from a broken thermometer) in the science storage room and they closed the school for a day and cost $8,000 to clean it up. Seems pretty stupid since its not *that* dangerous. But your right about the liability part, if some over reactive parent found out I'm sure there would have been legal costs.
It was for an I-130 VISA for my wife. And that site is directly linked from the Embassy website. As I stated above that is for VISA services, not general American Citizen Services. To my knowledge it isn't for translation services though perhaps that may be covered under it. It is for any question you have related to VISAs.
The email thing is for the VISA Services department. This is an excerpt from the site:
"Follow-Up Inquiries
Once we have responded to your inquiry we will not respond to any additional follow-up questions unless you pay for another email inquiry.
2. Price
The cost of this Service is 2129 yen per inquiry payable by VISA, MasterCard or JCB card.
Refunds
Generally, we will not refund your money once you enter your credit card information. However, we will refund your money if we do not receive your inquiry due to a technical error after the payment transaction was successfully completed. You need to proceed through this application until you get to the Inquiry Category. In User Type, please select 'Free Inquiries about Billing' from the dropdown menu, and then click 'Go to the Inquiry Form'.
3. Response Time Normally we will send an answer to your question within three business days. However, during our peak times of the year, a response may take longer than three business days."
There is a general email form on the Contact Us page but it warns that they generally don't reply to something that they receive via that form.:(
As of this writing the 2129 JPY is equivalent to $23.11 USD. Not a cheap email by any means. There are other things, non-VISA related, that you can use to contact the Embassy but my contact was all VISA related.
I'm a US citizen who travels to Japan fairly often and if I want to call the US Embassy in Tokyo I have to pay x number of dollars and get to talk to a call center in India. Its not just foreigners that get treated that way, its everyone. I usually try working through the much friendlier consulate, not sure if there is one in Belgium or if they will help with VISAs but you could check and give it a try. I will say that when I was actually at the Embassy the people were pretty nice, but the fact that you can't actually talk to (or even email) anyone there sucks. BTW, they charge for emails too and I'm pretty sure they go to a call center in India too.:(
The Box Set that you refered to goes for $169. Not bad considering the apps it comes with and an office suite. Thats the one I plan to get along with a bigger HDD for my MacBook Pro. I think its a pretty good deal.:)
I actually thought the Apple Palm Sync stuff was horrid and I use MissingSync on my 10.4 MBP. It was far, far better. Also I never liked Palm Desktop, it was a pain and always broke easily for me.
Novell has a product called iFolder that works well. A few years back I believe they open sourced it and made it free. Looking now this is the link I find to it. http://www.kablink.org/ifolder
Might be worth looking at, though you will have to run a server for the backend service.
I also work for a school and we purchase through GlobalGovEd ( Tiger Direct's Government and Education division) and we haven't had any issues. We have ordered a lot of things from them from huge orders down to single items and never had an issue. We also have a dedicated sales rep and he has been great to work with and gets us better than advertised pricing most of the time. He has also gotten us things that aren't even listed on the site. I have also used them for personal purchases through the Tiger Direct website and have never had a problem there either. I have ordered from New Egg a few times and at least two of those times I have ordered a product that was supposedly in stock and then found that its on back order. Thats a bit annoying.
Anyway, I have always been happy with Tiger Direct and GlobalGovEd.
You can use buses or taxis from the train stations to your ultimate destination. I haven't been to Europe but thats what you do in Japan if there isn't a local train that goes where you want to go.

Why would you need to when you can simply label it with both labels?
Just create labels instead and use the "Move to" drop down to put it in the folder. Then just click on the label title in the label list on the left side of the screen (might be under the "X More" drop down) and you can view all the mail with that label, or in that folder.

Instead of pdfcreator I prefer CutePDF Writer ( http://www.cutepdf.com/products/cutepdf/Writer.asp ) as it doesn't have as many confusing ( to non-computer literate people ) options and just works. :)
I don't have an issue with Sophos Endpoint Security and I have never changed my SIDs. Many people told me that it would break things but I never ran into an issue and always questioned why it had to be done.
