This morning's magic trick is that I can now read my emails on the Minitel 1. Everyone will be doing this in the year 2000.
#minitel #pidp8i #raspberrypi #mutt #retrocomputing
@iotar How was it setting up Mutt? I've been meaning to give it a bash for yonks but I have a million faffy tech things and adding Mutt to that list when e-mail clients are many hasn't risen to the top of my madness
@Hakarl It was something that I was expecting to take all day, but took maybe a half hour. The only major hurdle was getting an app-specific password for the IMAP, and that was because I can never remember my regular gmail password.
After that, once I worked out that you need to remove the spaces that Google put into the app-specific pass, it was plain sailing.
@iotar Ah nice. Maybe I'll do that one of these weekends. Would be really nice to not leave the command line for that.
