We are currently assembling Linux and Open Source documentation for global public viewing. This should be ready within November 2006. We welcome public contributions in this regard, either in originating documentation or adding/editing existing pages. The only condition to this is that all documentation falls under Creative Commons licensing.
Enties may take whatever form is useful for public consumption including Howtos's, tips tricks and traps, advice for dummies, etc
Spread the good word!

One of my clients recently experienced a strange phenomenon wereby a Recordable CD was accidently (and mysteriously) overwritten. I was determined to help her and came across a tool called safecopy.

All restored data now resides on your new CD.
I hope this works for you!
For recovery even after a format (especially on hard disks, but also usb devices) try Photorec. For partition recovery and some other magic try Testdisk.
Kmail stores files in the Maildir format by default - each email is contained as a file in a mail directory. Thunderbird (Mozilla, Netscape, Evolution and others) use MBox format - all emails are combined into a single file in this method.
Here we go:
Please note that this procedure will also work for Evolution, Netscape and other mail clients that also use MBox format mailboxes.
If you click on an email address on a web page in Firefox and you are using kmail as your default mail client try this:
Open the prefs.js file in your favorite editor (it is in your profile folder in your home directory under .mozilla/firefox/[profile name consisting of random characters]/) Make sure Firefox isn't open. Add this line to the end of the file: user_pref(“network.protocol-handler.app.mailto”,”/opt/kde3/bin/kmail”); Start Firefox and presto kmail opens when you click an email link.
