stupid people: please READ and THINK before you SPEAK or TYPE

I've been getting a lot of slack for calling the people where I work stupid. Just look at the comments. It's getting so bad that I start to think maybe I overreacted. Maybe it was harder than I thought to detect that image as a fraud. Maybe people do read and think before they speak [...]

WHAT IS THIS?!

Please tell me that this isn't a little baby version of those things I hate with the sharp fangs and deadly venom:

Sorry about the poor image quality. It's dark out so, I can't really use my telephoto, and I'm not getting any closer to it than I have to. So I've cropped that one from [...]

Webhosting Server Ready

In order to keep this project from turning out like Inklog (never actually getting finished), I'm making the WebHosting server available to those of you who would like accounts.
The control panel is NOT finsihed. This means that, if you'd like to add an email account, add a domain name, change DNS records, or alter your [...]

please take that church out of my state

Robert said it better than I could:
An eight-year-old boy was killed [...] by a group of people, among them his mother, who were convinced that he was possessed by evil spirits. [...] He died, not once upon a time, but last Friday. Meanwhile, [...] another group of people is fighting to block a[n Old [...]

I hate apartment complexes

Ugh.
The Cabochon, my last apartment complex, is giving me trouble. I got their refund check in the mail yesterday. Unfortunately, it was only about $700. They claim that I only put down $1,025 in deposit plus $175 in non-refundable (why is a deposit non-refundable? where does it go?). They also claim that I didn't pay [...]

SPAM management

I'm looking to implement some sort of SPAM management. I'd like to be able to use the Bayes algorithm in order to determine what is and what isn't SPAM. This means I'd like to be able to have a folder (MailDir format please) called "caughtspam" or something similar. When a message is considered SPAM, it [...]

Someone write this for me… please!!

Part of the apache module for the control panel is done. It adds a new site and regenerates the apache config file. Now I just need to handle aliases and deletions and reloads. Then apache will be done. Then I'll move onto mail, followed by mysql, followed by file system management (quotas, directories, etc), followed [...]

MOVED!

All email, web, and other services for revjim.net have been moved to the new server as of… right now.
Until your DNS servers are updated (2 hours, tops), you will see a redirect occur in your browser to revjim.net.tmp.inklog.net. This is normal, and expected, so do not be alarmed. Email should automatically move to the new [...]

Even Miette knows that the Earth is spinning

Yesterday, Miette decided that it would be fun to knock over bottles of shampoo, and then lay in the mess she made. Needless to say, this morning she got a bath. If I had to guess, I'd say it lasted about 30 seconds. That might be an overestimate, though. Usually, with enough pressure to the [...]

Exim + Courier + MySQL configuration files

I've finally finished setting up Exim and Courier to access MySQL for ALL of it's data. In case you're interested in doing the same thing, here are the relevant config files.

exim.conf
authmysqlrc
authdaemonrc
