It's not a public script because I have it in a repo with internal tools for the personal server. What I have detects the emails rejected by "Client host rejected: cannot find your reverse hostname" and "Client host rejected: cannot find your hostname". This is the script that parses the Postfix logs for those errors: https://gist.github.com/cpina/e97c0da58f42a0db83b3886674de4410 I call (from cron) it from this Bash script: https://gist.github.com/cpina/79b4f425facb6b97aaea4c572307de3a The email looks like this: https://gist.github.com/cpina/4c49df824742c5ae1d273170939795be The reason that I wrote it was, as I said, I set up postfix to reject emails based on the hostname (it reduced Spam) but some, very few services, have the email set up in a way that is wrong. Then I can see them and I add them in sender_access in Postfix. What I will do, some day, is make sure that emails rejected because of DMARC, are also there. So, if I expected an email from britishgas or whoever and it appears in the morning email the day after, I would know faster. Not ideal, but email seems full of not-ideal things :-) Cheers, -- Carles Pina i Estany https://carles.pina.cat signature.asc Description: PGP signature -- GLLUG mailing list GLLUG@mailman.lug.org.uk https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/gllug

My old RiscPC was switched off about 10 years ago when I was being treated in hospital. I managed to survive and slowly recovered, the HDD never recovered. Apparently RiscOS took over the Computer Concepts Impression series, so I am also looking at installing https://www.riscosopen.org/content on to a replacement disk on my original RISCPC There is even a version of RISCOS for the RaspberryPi. A friend who does not know much about computers picked up a HDD that was ticking and not reaching operating speed. He turned it upside down and dropped some light oil on to the bearing, and a few days later it started working. I found it difficult to believe, but would be willing to try. -- Chris Bell www.chrisbell.org.uk -- GLLUG mailing list GLLUG@mailman.lug.org.uk https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/gllug

His are coming from SalesForce, and yours are coming from Mail Jet, so I don't think we can draw much from that. I think the next thing to look at is maybe this is an SSL issue, so I found thse: https://github.com/openssl/openssl/issues/8010 https://portal.microfocus.com/s/article/KM15515?language=en_US Good find, very odd issue. Can try if that helps, I might have to contact BG to find out what they are emailing me and how frequent, to verify if it works. That would indicate a possible issue within some Intel Goldmont processors, and can be fixed with telling OpenSSL not to use the hardware for this This is running on a nanode though, and I am getting: vendor_id : AuthenticAMD Regards, Henrik Morsing -- GLLUG mailing list GLLUG@mailman.lug.org.uk https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/gllug
Re: [GLLUG] Printer page layouts
Hi Chris, The texlive-extra-util package may be able to help with the pdfjam and pdfbook2. You could pipe these together with the pdftk-java package which has a shuffle option. Although I think something like LibreOffice Writer has all these options including the brochure print.
