I use RAV with my linux-based qmail email server (for a smallish ~50 person corporate domain). Works very well. Simple to install and maintain. CNET reported the product will not be developed further, so I will need to find another solution for spam-stoppage and anti-virus protection at the server level for my Outlook-bound Windows users. I'm thinking SpamAssassin and procmail -- what do you recommend?
Ok - the supposition that there are inappropriate spam reaching children is redundant; spam, inherently inappropriate, is reaching children. Secondly, images and themes inappropriate for children are reaching children through the indiscriminate (to be kind) efforts of spammers.
Spam promoting G-rated Disney movies would still be inappropriate.
It seems Hitachi is still pushing the Healthcare angle...which is interesting because i have a healthcare application (which I developed for my employer) which currently works with Windows IE desktops and Linux PDA handhelds (Zaurus 5600) running Opera. I'm also looking at Toshiba Tablets (I've had one since March). I wonder when I can find one of the Hitachi units (the reseller page is "under construction").
I had intended to wonder why anyone needed to convert a Windows XP Tablet machine to Linux when a Linux solution exists, but I guess it was merely an announcement to gauge interest.
He's targeting VIM's command line, not Perl or a perl-compatible REGEX engine. I believe I used the same expression in vi on SVR4 AT&T UNIX way back when.

I suggest you, too, take another look at communism, especially since like most people you equate it with what the likes of Stalin and Mao brought about.

Are these people insane? Linux is a boon to humanity. Anyone who can't see that is blind. If Linux is communism, it's time to take another look at communism, because it looks to me like a beautiful thing.
I would strongly recommend having that "another look" at communism before saying that it looks like a beautiful thing.
My wife and her family suffered, as have millions of others, under the terror of "beautiful" communism. She was taken from her family and put into a child labor/indoctrination camp. Her father died in Cambodia seeking to find food and a way over the mountains to Thailand. His crime: being educated; see, that's unfair and uncommon.
I love Linux. Even GNU/Linux. I love Open Source. Even Free Software. But I hate communism. So should you.

In the USL vs BSDI & UC Board of Regents case annotations were explicitly discounted as infringements because they have no role in the execution of the software and are thus immaterial breeches. From the preliminary injunction ruling:
The final type of overlap identified by Professor Carson
is "comment" overlap. All computer programs contain short
explanatory comments annotating the code in which they are
embedded. The function of these comments is simply to inform
programmers of the purpose and operation of particular sections of
code. Comments have no role whatsoever in software performance.

After reviewing the affidavits of Plaintiff's and
Defendants, experts, a great deal of uncertainty remains as to what
trade secrets Net2 might contain. One fact does seem clear: the
header files, filenames, and function names used by Defendants are
not trade secrets. Defendants could have printed these off of any
of the thousands of unrestricted copies of Plaintiff's binary
object code. (Kashtan Aff. at 9-11.) Moreover, the nonfunctional
elements of the code, such as comments, cannot be trade secrets
because these elements are minimal and confer no competitive
advantage on Defendants. The copied elements that contain
instructions, such as BREAD and CPIO, might perhaps be trade
secrets, but Defendants' experts have argued persuasively that
these instructions are either in the public domain or otherwise
exempt. As Defendants have repeatedly emphasized, much of 32V
seems to be publicly available
I've seen an English market Zaurus 7500. Funnily enough it was at a meeting promoting the Z 5600, and one of the reps was on the sidelines using the 7500...no, he wasn't a marketing-type -- a marketing-type would never have made that mistake:) So, after the presentation of the (nice) 5600 I approached the rep and made him show me the 7500.
My advice: restrain your impulsive nature and wait a few months (at most?) for the English market version. It will be a very different -- and lower cost -- beast. Well worth the wait, if you are interested in this flipin' mini unit.
It is cool, that's for sure.

no, he was claiming that Microsoft owned a piece of Salon. He's confusing it with Slate, an MSN property -- unless I responded to the wrong post...
Are you stupid? Ford doesn't own NBC. It advertises on NBC, but that doesn't equate to ownership.

It's not an irrelevant question. There statement of May 15 is not enough.

Yes, I realize I'm straining credulity here.
Was this an retracted confession?? "I, er, someone was trying to sell children a dildo in the street..."
Or, perhaps you just left out an "f"...
Sexual/violent themes sent to children is reprehensible. So is any genre of spam.
