  1. Goodmail on What Happens If You Don't Pay for Goodmail? · · Score: 1

    Perhaps Mozilla or any other browser could filter out any Goodmail messages? I realize that is a burden on the recipient, but if enough people did that (since the ISP's will supposedly be of no help) it could reduce the confirmed receipt of messages and make Goodmail unprofitable.

  2. Re:Chances are... on Creating an IS Department? · · Score: 1

    That really hits home. I am the IS(IT) department et the company where I work - when I am not being the controller that is. IS is viewed as a hobbyist position and not really necessary. Since I don't have time to deal with networks ( and the company is NOT going to pay anyone to do that) I have set up peer to peer networking and addressed the backup issue machine by machine, Installing little subroutines that backup each user's data to CD and monthly offsite storage. The people who don't get it - mainly the owners and elderly secretaries - just don't get backed up. Fortunately that's personal email and miscellaneous memos. All the financial dept data (my crew) is backed up to removable hard drives every 2 hours with redundant back up peer to peer to other machines within the department. I've got the Operations crew uploading (via DIAL-UP!!) once a month because each machine is in a different physical location. Whenever a hurricane comes through I am biting my nails, but the owners don't want to invest in "useless gadgets"
