When using gotmail to check out e-mails from hotmail you get an error message 'Could not parse redirect location'. This is due a change of the page structure. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. execute gotmail in shell to see the error message Actual Results: Error: Could not parse redirect location Expected Results: Check out the mails successfully
Created attachment 60755 [details, diff] Patched gotmail pearl script Just copy this script over the installed one /usr/bin/gotmail It would be nice to have a net-mail/gotmail-0.8.2-r2 release though.
Doesn't work here, on a regular hotmail.com account.
Can you be a bit more specific on what doesn't work? Any console output?

I have no idea why it doesn't work for you. It works fine for me. Did you try to log in with a web browser and delete all messages and then try again with gotmail?
Yup, nothing helps. The behavior is the same as when I supply wrong password.
This should be filed upstream.
Hm, I need to apologize - I didn't notice you have to type "--username xxx" instead of "--username xxx@hotmail.com". Your patched version works, as does new 0.8.3 (which is presumably based on your patch sent upstream, because the diff shows no differences in code). 0.8.3 will be in portage shortly.
Ebuild in CVS, closing.
The digest is incorrect !!! Digest verification Failed: !!! /usr/portage/distfiles/gotmail-0.8.3.tar.gz !!! Reason: Filesize does not match recorded size
Ah, upstream forgot to update version string from "0.8.2" to "0.8.3" earlier. Looks like they fixed it, thus altering the tarball. Anyway, fixed in CVS, thanks!
