last year going to the mountains with my dad and brother... brought my ibook
with me and it went hiking around the rockies with me.
Man am I glad I was carrying that little sucker and not my old Toshiba satellite! That 5lbs got heavy after a while!
Say Vincent, while I'm thinkin about it...how's come the Mandrake list software is Sympa instead of Mailman?
It started originally as sympa and never changed. The only reason I got the mandrakesecure lists running under ezmlm-idx is because I use qmail on the mandrakesecure.net server.
That will likely change in the future, however. I plan to move the mandrakesecure lists to exim and mailman and at that point can demonstrate that mailman is all we need. (I, too, have been requesting a change from sympa for years).
The only thing stopping me from doing that today is the need to get my own exim config down pat first... I have to do some major hacking to get TMDA to sit in front of mailman so that spam is non-existant. Right now, my own mailing lists are subscriber-only, but that still ends up with a lot of spam sitting in the moderator queue. With qmail and ezmlm-idx it was a piece of cake, with exim and mailman it's a little more challenging.
Interesting. But since you use Qmail as opposed to Postfix, won't Qmail filter the spam as easily as Postfix does? I use postfix on my Mandrake 8.2 server and can't remember the last time I got any spam.
