Hi, mi name is Fabio Blanco. I am from Argentina. A Barks fan from ever, and
a Don Rosa fan from only a pair of months ago. (Don, you are great!)
Recently I found some comics in esperanto: Tintin, Asterix, etc. Somebody
knows traslations from Barks stuff to la facila, simpla lingua universala.
Oh, boy is a piece of cake for Spanish speakers.
Thanks,
Fabio

This sounds very suspicious. Everyone is advised NOT to run the
"fix2001.exe" file that was attached to the previous DCML mail. (It's a bit
late anyway for a year-2000 bug.)

Harry's right. Better not open the file.
There's a virus (TROJ_FIX2001) in it.

I can only confirm this (and advise people to get an as-you-download virus
scanner like the one I have). Question is: how come this idiot was (a)
allowed to post from such an address and (b) allowed to post a binary at all?

Can't answer the first, but if I'm not mistaken, Mailman (which drives
this list) only puts a limit on the number of lines a mail can have. It
can't see if something is binary or not.
I suspect that the limit is set to 0 which in Mailman means unlimited...
If Per has set it to something else, then it probably isn't low
enough...

No, I think Per *did* set a limit. It's just that the executable was small
enough to slip through.

Thanks for the information. i never know what Gottfredson's later arts

I used "binary" improperly: I meant to say that I would expect the list
server to reject any mail with f*@#*$ attachments (even if they're not
viruses).

First of all I'm sorry that virus got through to the list.
I hope it didn't cause too much problem. In particular I hope noone
actually ran it!

As for (b), the maximum was 40Kb. That has usually stopped all binaries
(and often quoted whole digests) but seldom anything else. But you are
right; I will lower it some more, to avoid small binaries like this one.
(Of course it would be better if Mailman supported filtering on MIME
types.)
As for (a) it's my fault. List members post legitimate messages from
other addresses than their subscription addresses now and then, so
some manual attention is required to let messages through now and
then. Therefore I dared to turn off only-subscribers-may-post while I
was gone for eight days (in Egypt), but, alas, I forgot to turn it on
again when I was back. Sorry!

I have a French Uncle Scrooge comic book with an

The picture shows Scrooge under a palm tree and
the caption reads: Un Coin-Coin De Paradis.
I remember that this was a really cute joke but I

Simple enough: "coin" as a single word means "corner", thus "a corner of
paradise", while "coin-coin" is the sound that ducks make in French -- in
other words it is the French equivalent of "quack quack".
Yup -- a cute joke, allright ;-)

Well, lest anyone get sore at me for not mentioning these things... yes, I
will be at the Big Easy Con in New Orleans on May 26-28. It's very nice of
my many old friends in the field of comic collecting that they will invite
me to American conventions even though my work no longer appears in this
country, just like my pals who hosted my trip all the way to Oakland last
weekend (and that was a very enjoyable show, as always).
But THIS weekend, on April 15, tax day, I will be the guest at the grand
opening of the "House of Donald Collectibles", a Donald Duck museum run by
the "Fan Club for Collectors of Donald Duck" in Pennsylvania. I think
somebody said it's near Reading... and that's hard to find anywhere in
America these days! The address is 247 B Gap Road, Ronks, PA... they have a
toll-free number of 1-888-9553565 for anyone to call for further info. Or
send an e-mail to fanofdduck at aol.com
