  1. Re:Earthlink whitelists are user settings, not ser on EarthLink Is Losing a Lot of Email · · Score: 1

    This is something we have used on one account. It works fine most of the time. The FAQ for the whitelist = address book mentions that if you add a person from a certain domain (ex: juan@mycustomersURL.com) all email from mycustomersURL.com will be allowed through. This is where the flakeyness comes in; this works for awhile and seems to forget; even though the contact's info is still in the address book.
    This whitelist system is a pain to support since it resides on the IMAP email system; maybe it is available if you use Earthlink's software, which we do not, I'm not sure.
    I sent several messages to myself (30+ with attachments total ~500Kb) from my yahoo account and to my gmail account. The message arrived at yahoo & gmail immediately however I have yet to see them through my Earthlink account. I used the dhdhd+1@url.com, dhdhd+2@url.com method to recieve them all at the same account. I also totally shut off the spam filter for my account; we'll see how long it takes.

  2. Re:You come when things are broken. on How Much Respect Do You Get? · · Score: 1

    But then again how much does your plumber make per hour? As mentioned above when the service becomes a basic service respect goes out the door. I heard on radio last night an interview of a lawyer who lived in the Balitmore MD area and could not find anyone to do manual labor work around his house. He appeared to be expressing a common problem. So has tech work been reduced to manual labor?

  3. the beta of this has been up for some time on Microsoft Plans News Aggregator · · Score: 4, Informative

    This article was posted back in Nov of '03. go figure.

  4. specs & small photo on Psion Releases A Rugged, Water-Tight PDA · · Score: 5, Informative

  5. Re:VNC usage on A Stateless IP Phone In The Works From AT&T · · Score: 1

    I have also used VNC for some time now on a Win P2P network and works quite well. There is some lag between the remote mouse and the local but they(AT&T) have a little marker under the remote mouse that marks the actual mouse location so there's no need to wait on the lag.

  6. appropriate comic on Is This How to Carry Your Gadgets? · · Score: 1

    PC and Pixel cartoon at Yahoo Comics shows exactlly what was posted about CmdrTaco earlier.

  7. Re:The benefit of this... on Dept. of Defense Adopts StarOffice · · Score: 1

    StarOffice not only opens MSOffice(w/out having to do special selecting, just click) docs but "save as"'s them reasonably well with minimal formatting loss.

  8. Google /.ed also ??? on Do it Yourself 1U Half-Width Server · · Score: 1

    It would appear that Google as recieved some /.age at their cache site.

    Now that's some seriuos /. or maybe the cache is on a different server setup. ??

  9. Re:This happens everytime time on The Plusses And Perils of Overclocking · · Score: 1

    Try using a line break or paragraph tag; it makes things so much easier to read. I read the first line and my eyes went out of focus. Check out this UseIt.com article for more info and reasons why.

  10. same article posted at ZDNet yesterday on The Plusses And Perils of Overclocking · · Score: 1

    This same article was posted at ZDNet News yesterday @ 4:44am. It's funny that David Becker sells the story to ZDNet the day before it runs in his own paper.

  11. everything gets cracked in time. on High Tech Medical Clinics? · · Score: 1

    All sys get cracked in time so make it secure as mentioned but use some failsafe methods also.
    I would make the patient records online an opt-in item and or on a rotating basis for those who may need it (chronic care) along with login disclaimers and signed paperwork at opt-in.
    I was in an office that had a sys in every room and I had time(had I wanted to) to fool with them; put two people in the room(look-out and tinkerer) and you have a problem.
