Day: October 27, 2006

  • Mad (Scientist) Pumpkins

    I got a laugh out of the Cylon pumpkin, yes I did. However… I now wish I had the skill to make one of these.

    C’mon. You know you want one. Who wouldn’t?

    (I couldn’t resist that pun, either. Yes, I’m a bad man and should be punished.)

  • Yahoo: The black hole of email?

    My sister’s primary email address is at Yahoo, which I find amusing considering that for years she had an address here that she barely used. Maybe she’ll change her mind now.

    If you use Yahoo! mail as your main email account, you might not be receiving all of your emails. […] Since about October 16, 2006 they have been “overly aggressive” in blocking emails.

    I was wondering, this morning, why my server logs report indicated a bunch of strange SMTP errors. Eventually I traced it down to a bunch of deferrals from Yahoo’s server. Normally I don’t correspond with anyone on their system, but Sis and I have been in touch lately. Or, apparently, we’ve nearly been in touch. Maybe she’ll get my reply, maybe she won’t…
