OK. How do I verify or ferret out this to know. |

Thunderbird on gentoo is vulnerable? |

I've charted my own pathway, via R.P.4 boards and static IP addresses. |
28 |
That way, I can add whatever I want, test, and just run very few codes |
29 |
on those arm8 boards.... Sure, this has been on my todo list, as I |
30 |
prepare to live/work out of a RV. Eventually, I'll add a satellite link, |
31 |
when all else fails, without large attached files. I'm keeping the home, |
32 |
where the hub/static-IPs will connect, but I can be home or mobile, |
33 |
controlling my own email servers. I've just groan very tired of someone |
34 |
else managing and making decisions on MY email. I've received too many |
35 |
private emails from folks, with the same sentiment. |
36 |
|
37 |
If what I do is well documented, then a plethora of folks can have |
38 |
custom setups, in a well documented fashion. Mine is the hard case with |
39 |
the eventual address of daily mobility, cellular and satellite comms. |

|
41 |
Migration to R.P.4 has been on my goals list too, for a while. |
42 |
|
43 |
MY goal, via gentoo, is to fix and document this once and for ALL. Your |
44 |
expertise and the rest of the band of Gentoo folks are deeply |
45 |
appreciated in this effort. This action has been brewing for a few |
46 |
years. Email is critical for me, and I do not want vendors dictating its |
47 |
future for me. Enough is Enough. |
