I might have to buy another as my HP Scanjet 4P refuses to switch on. I don't know whether it's worth taking to HP to get fixed or whether it would be cheaper to buy a new one. As all the new ones seem to have USB connections, could someone advise which will work with eCS ?

A good guide to USB scanners that will work on eCS is www.sane-project dot org/lists/sane-mfgs-cvs.html The only scanners I have reports on that are not working are the Epson 2480/2580/3490/3590. A list of scanners that I have confirmed reports of success on is at http://smedley.info/sane.html Hope this helps, Cheers, Paul. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- **= Email 3 ==========================** Date: Mon, 19 Jun 2006 19:06:02 +1000 (EST) From: "Voytek Eymont" Subject: Re: Scanners > Has anyone bought a scanner lately?

In the last 24 hours or so I've basically had all inbound email listed as spam when I use inetmail's RBL. I've been using this setting (turned on) for well over a year now and it has worked. Now, if I enable RBL support _everything_ is listed as spam and thus bounced. Has anyone else seen this? Suggestions? I'll go back to tape to see if anything has been corrupted. -Chris WarpSpeed Computers - The Graham Utilities for OS/2.

SORB's had a problem recently where this happened with thier DUL list. Re INetMail RBL's, no idea. What RBL's are you using ? I'm currently using sbl-xbl.spamhaus dot org (includes cbl.abuseat dot org) spam.dnsbl.sorbs dot net bl.spamcop dot net but have noticed that the ammount of spam coming through is increasing , I assume this is due to the russian bloke's alternating spambots which I've noticed are changing IP's every 6 hours now.
