I just went thru the review of Vista over at Toms Hardware and I have to say that I’m not impressed. I think I could have summed up the review in about two lines.
“We, uhm, made a cool theme that you can turn off if you like the old look.”
“We made a copy [...]
I’ve been reading recently about the Two-Tier Internet Bill currently being considered and I wonder if Congress & the rest of the country realize how much they are absolutely ruining the internet?!
If more of this crap comes to fruition I will definitely look into moving to Europe.
If you want to read more about the [...]
I just wanted to vent about one of my biggest pet peeves in life. This drives me crazier than just about anything else. Worse than people who don’t use their blinker!
What makes me absolutely furious and instantly blacklists the site for all eternity is when a site tries to resize my browser window! It should [...]

Mondo Rescue looks like it [...]
Big wave to the good people over on #amavis.? I managed to finally solve my issue with amavis + spamassassin.? In the near future I will be writing a detailed howto for postfix + spamhaus.org rbl / xbl + amavis-new + clamav + spamassassin.
Hopefully this’ll be a help to me (if I ever have to [...]
I’ve been thinking more and more about spam recently since the whole blue-frog fiasco. I still get piles of spam in my gmail box and I’ve been working on spam filtering for my home mail server. I feel my home mail server is much more spam-resistant than my gmail box, but how can I combine [...]
Upon request I’ve attached a link to my amavisd.conf. If anyone can see what I’ve missed I’d appreciate it.

I’m using postfix + amavis + spamassassin. The process recognizes spam and sends a notice to postmaster@domain.tld but [...]
