I'm sure that film was done by MS to show the conniving Linux ways of stealing the code and violating their patents

Yes, just the sort of devious, underhand, nasty thing they're capable of. Hiring a midget dressed as a penguin... How low can they go?

I use mine too much sometimes, and that's when I get in trouble....

Seems like it's been forever since I last logged on good ol' LQ. Nice to see the $RANDOM thread still going strong and all the familiar faces (err...usernames?). Been busy with my networking course. Decided to set up a server in a VM for the experience and immediately ran into issues. Looked on Google for an hour or two and remembered LQ. So here I am: Mail Server. It's funny how I have 1,000 posts, been a member for two years, a Linux user for 4-5 and have absolutely no friggin' clue about the server side of Linux, which also happens to be where its used in an overwhelming majority.

Yeah this thread is still somewhat going. I haven't been "going," though.... Been really sick for the past week, that's why I haven't really been on too much lately. I am currently battling it out with a really bad, severe chest/lung infection, among many other things. On a good note though, I am getting better finally. Yay me....

Well anyways, .... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tUEyYuZkjVI

Enjoy.

Over and out,

Josh

I hope you get better...
Man, why can't setting up a mail server be as easy as setting up a web server? This is so difficult!

Well, the configuration seems to take foerver, and it gets confusing when I want spam protection, webmail, etc... It doesn't matter anyway... my ISP blovks port 25, and according to the #postifx IRC channel, running my own mail server is impossible unless I pay money for a VPS, business internet plan or mail relaying service. I hope they are mistaken but they know a lot more than I do...
