Biggest thrill for me was reverse-egineering the 'fast loader' code in one of the games so that I could create my own TSR that would allow me to load *any* game from the floppy drive using fast synchronous transfer. I remember to run some app on my C64 (there was a 1541-II atached to it, as well as a 1581 -- but the 1541-II is the device that came into play) that used the floppy's CPU and RAM as a second node. MPP for crunching fractals, in the 80s, at home! :D Sigh. (So, so seriously OT here. Better stop this now LOL) - C Timo

Re: ZMI-GERMAN: question to the users
thus Michael Monnerie spake: Dear users of the ZMI-GERMAN ruleset. I manage those ruleset, and just (again) received the message below, about "you won a trip". Those messages are spammy, although you really can do such a trip and only pay the flight ticket (which then costs enough to also include the trip itself ;-). Anyway, as this is nothing were your money vanishes, I didn't include such messages until now. But maybe, if response and urge is high, I will include them. What do you think? Is it spam for you? Hi, yes, this is spam.

Re: Email from myself to myself
thus RW spake: On Thu, 28 May 2009 05:37:28 -0700 (PDT) hateSpam wrote: Thanks for reply. i) How can I check ( open relay ) in postfix. I looked at but could not find. When you say "from myself to my self" it sounds like simple address spoofing which spammers do all the time. It doesn't imply an open relay, and your server being an open relay doesn't even help the spammer to send to you. ii) When I check the header all information is about our server. I can not see any external server. Well, there's a different IP adress in X-Originating-Ip, so you have presumably cut some received headers off. You mean this *X-Originating-Ip:[14.960.49.68]* one? ;)
