Why it was great to be a kid in the 70’s

You had to wear really sucky clothes, but you got to see stuff like this on kids TV:

Scalix pt. 2

I’m still sorting out the wrinkles (I might have to read the manual!!!) but it’s looking very neat. The web interface is almost a fully featured as Outlook. The one issue I’m having right now is with multiple inboxes. I want to have a seperate inbox for work and personal emails, and the Outlook connector has a configuration option to have multiple mailboxes connected at the same time, but opening the 2nd mailbox throws a “This set of folders cannot be opened” error….

E-mail servers

I get a lot of email, and I have very little time to read it. I also access email from one of several computers, PDAs, phones, web caf????’s, hotels etc. I decided a while ago to setup an email server on my home LAN to consolidate everything. I could also have server based filtering, so when I was on platforms where I pay per MB (GPRS), I would only have important stuff in my Inbox, and all the other stuff would be sorted into folders where I could read it when I got onto a LAN.

I setup courier-IMAP-ssl, postfix, procmail, More >

Al Gore may have been a lousy politician, but he knows how to drum up interest in the environment. If only he had been this active Bush-bashing in 2001.

On a related note, if you go and see the movie, aspoke.com will give you a free laptop skin. Bloggers can also get one by linking to the movie and the offer.
