No, please do it this way:

Just type "sudo -s" by itself. Nothing else.
Your prompt will change from "$" to "#" indicating you are running with root privileges.

Then do "curl http://easyinstall.citadel.org/install | bash"

After the installation has completed, you may exit the root shell to return to normal privilege level.

Thanks for the help! That worked. I'm still new to Linux and not familiar with the nuances of the sudo switches (I only have ever used "sudo"). Thanks again for the clarification!

How do I switch between text/html in WebCit?

If a message is in plain text, WebCit receives it from Citadel Server in plain text and renders it in a plain form (using <pre> tags or whatever).
Is your sender giving you messages that have the content-type header set incorrectly? Can you post a partial example?

Hi,

It seems the offending email has the content type as:

MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/html; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

That was from the header info.

 

Here is an example of the text I get what I get ..

So, lacking an answer on this, I have installed BlueMail on linux, and use that exclusively as my email client, it works great and render's mail correctly ..

Cheers,
