RE: Missing mail
From http://www.whirlpool.net.au/: These emails were allegedly sent to all Telstra support staff on Monday and Tuesday of this week. --- Sent to all Support Staff Tuesday14th October 2003 Good afternoon all, As per 's previous email yesterday, we are very much aware of the current Telstra Email issues and we offer you our appreciation and gratitude for the way you have all banded together in the past few weeks to deal with the obvious customer dissatisfaction. Telstra are also very much aware of the impacts on our CSR's and are extremely committed to addressing the current Email issue - to which they have had their technical staff working around the clock to ensure that the issue is resolved. Yesterday they released several customer updates on the Email issue, throughout their various press and media avenues. As such please find below a brief summary of the Telstra press release - The backdrop to the recent email delays is that Telstra has seen an unexpected spike in traffic on our email network - in fact a 20 per cent spike. The extra traffic load on our email network should not affect Internet access. The capacity issue is now under control. Telstra is increasing capacity on the email network to put the traffic load issues behind us. A number of manual approaches have been put in place so that customers can continue to send and receive email. Telstra's technical staff have been working around the clock to ensure that mail is delivered. Importantly, customers have always had a working email service. However, some customers might notice a delay in receiving email or see intermittent time outs. We believe that other ISPs have grappled with traffic load issues in the last week. Some of the traffic load issues have not been unique to Telstra. They have also provided us with a more in-depth update on the current situation and their approved scripting for us to use when dealing with Email affected customers. The approved scripting and Email update has been communicated to all staff via a series of desk drops, handouts, posters and there will also be staff meetings over the next day. As such please see your Team Leader if you have not received a copy of the staff handout or approved scripting, before commencing your next shift. Again, thank you for your support and assistance during these difficult times, as it is greatly appreciated by everyone. Sent to all Support Staff Monday 13th October 2003 STAFF BRIEF - BIGPOND EMAIL PERFORMANCE ISSUES BACKGROUND The backdrop to the recent email delays is that Telstra has seen an unexpected spike in traffic on our email network - in fact a 20 per cent spike. The extra traffic load on our email network should not affect Internet access. The capacity issue is now under control. Telstra is increasing capacity on the email network to put the traffic load issues behind us. A number of manual approaches have been put in place so that customers can continue to send and receive email. Telstra's technical staff have been working around the clock to ensure that mail is delivered. Importantly, customers have always had a working email service. However, some customers might notice a delay in receiving email or see intermittent time outs. We believe that other ISPs have grappled with traffic load issues in the last week. Some of the traffic load issues have not been unique to Telstra. CUSTOMER MESSAGES While it's important to note that the email service is not and has not been down, we acknowledge that the performance has not been up to scratch for our customers. We accept that customers are simply not satisfied. Telstra is of course concerned and our technical people have been working around the clock to keep the service working. Telstra understands that our email service is not meeting customers' expectations. We are doing all we can to ensure that a working service is maintained and that mail is not lost. Telstra staff have worked to ensure that the service has been stable. Our priority is to maintain a working service and not to make hasty decisions which could have seen some data lost. The surge in traffic comes after August was confirmed the worst month on record for viruses and worms. While we have not had any new worms or viruses confirmed, we believe that we could be seeing a residual impact from previous malicious sources traversing global networks. -Original Message- From: Bob Howells [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, 15 October 2003 8:13 PM To: WAMUG Mailing List Subject: Re: Missing mail Re Telstra email... 1. Somewhere a statement was made that they updated some software, which was probably microsoft stuff seeing they are tied in there and ... It had bugs. They were still sorting that out.. So the story went. 2. Spam has created a 25 % increase in their mail traffic in just 2 weeks. I don't know anybody
Re: Entourage
I'm no database expert by any stretch of the imagination. I'm specifying two databases at work and Access is the tool we have. The person helping me out has programming and large database support experience and pointed out there are better tools out there, especially for when the data base grows fairly large. Something to do with the encapsulation of the data within the (one?) file. I think Access may be one of those things Mac people want because it is not available rather than for what it specifically does, and of course having to deal with data stored in that format at times. We have used a database report writing tool called Crystal Reports (Windows http://www.crystaldecisions.com/, not sure if there is a Mac equivalent) that is more intuitive and flexible than the Access interface. I have a copy of 4D at home on my Mac and have got as far as the tutorial, long way to go for me yet, but I have things in this area I'd like to achieve. Regards Paul Kelly Duffy wrote: ...snip... . Its a pity they don't make Access for the Mac. ...snip... Kind regards, Kelly Duffy

The Spreadsheet needs to support multiple sheets, the database - well I haven't got enough time. Since I use FileMaker Pro to earn a living, I have no use for the AW database anyway, but it's not too bad as a simple list manger. The graphics tools also need a lot of work, but having said that, as a Filemaker solutions developer I think there is no better tool on the planet for making Filemaker graphic buttons than the Draw/Paint combo in AppleWorks. -- Peter Hinchliffe Apwin Computer ServicesFileMaker Pro Solutions Developer Perth, Western Australia Phone (618) 9332 6482Fax (618) 9332 0913 Mac because I prefer it -- Windows because I have to.

Appletalk printing nightmare :)
Hey all, Im trying re-enable a computer to use appletalk, it has been working fine for months now. All of a sudden im getting an appletalk disabled in system preferences error. When re-enabling the appletalk on the ethernet interface im getting an error that only one port can be configured. Problem is, there is no other port, the iMac has only Internal Modem (which has been disabled in Active network ports) and the ethernet interface. Ive also tried the machine on other subnets (other computers on the same subnet however have no atalk problems) Ive tried setting up a completely new location with appletalk switched on and moving to that location. Ive even tried the old opt-apple-p-r trick. Any ideas on how I can convince this box that there really is no other network adapter? :) -- Luke
Re: MS Office v.X
on 15/10/2003 8:33 AM, Susan Hastings at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I still need Appleworks for the database element, although MX Office v.X is good for everything else. Hi Susan and Others, FileMaker Pro is a good substitute for Access. I have seen some wonderful databases done in Filemaker, but Peter could confirm whether Access is more 'powerful' or has more features. Also, for those who have only Office for the Mac, Excel can be used as a data base. By creating 'Lists' and using Data Forms a fairly full featured flat-file database can be created. I doubt whether it has relational capabilities though. Regards, Philippe C
Re: Entourage
I was just wondering if those people who are using MS Office v.X have completely removed AppleWorks? If so have you done away with the idea of having a database program etc which doesn't come with office, or are there appropriate substitutes so you can get rid of AppleWorks all together? Hi Adam FileMaker is an alternative. I find the AppleWorks Database a little constrictive, however FM is the other side of that. So large, flexible and powerful as to be scary - I'm sure there are people who will disagree :-) However there are so many plug-ins for it in freeware shareware that a lot of the aggravation has been removed. I seem to recall hearing that MS were ditching Access in favour of FM Entourage - the thing to remember about Rules is that they are applied in the order in which they are listed. If you open a message and then open rules you will find that the e-addresses are automatically in place. There are quite a few variables but once you have had a bit of play it works quite well. As for Spam then look at SpamSieve - works with Entourage and Mail and PowerMail and MailSmith and Eudora. http://www.c-command.com/spamsieve/ Personally not fond of MS in principle but the Office Suite is excellent software, and it does seem to work on Macs better with each new version. IMHO Appleworks sucks, basically :-) Also not happy with Mail, iCal etc I find them clumsy and inflexible. Have never been able to get iSync working with my Nokia 6310i via Bluetooth, just think that there is a long way to go with all of those Apple apps, except Safari which I find brilliant - especially the tabbed browsing. If you check the archives you will find loads of info on alternatives to Office. My 2 cents :-) All the best Angus

Re: Data Bases
There is another data base for the Mac besides FileMaker It's called Panorama and has been going since 1985 with constant improvements of course ! RAM based and relational It is blazingly fast. Requires considerably less space than FileMaker or any other data base for that matter.Cross platform , the only change you need to make is add the extension .pan to your files .I am currently running a 35,000 photographic catalog application at the Air Force Museum at Bullcreek with 50 fields takes up 5 Mb Search and select on any field takes moments.Displays jpeg images as thumbnails or any size you choose.

Re: Virtual PC - OS9/OSX
Hi Neil On Wednesday, October 15, 2003, at 07:43 PM, Neil Houghton wrote: I've just bought virtual PC v6.1 with windows XPpro (as part of the Office X pro package) I have a couple of questions for any Virtual PC v6.1 users out there: 1) Virtual PC comes on two CDs. I successfully installed on my 800MHz G4 15 iMac (running OSX 10.2.8). All this from the first disc - I was never asked for the second disc. The second disc is labelled Additional system files and by inspection contains 483.4MB of Windows files (5474 items). There are no read me or text files. Does anyone know what these files are, what they are used for, in what circumstances I would need them?? It will probaly be full of compressed archives for extra sytem S/W, webserver, database connectivity, networking etc 2) When I'm on the road, I'll need to install on my 400MHz G4 Ti Powerbook and I was thinking of installing OSX on the powerbook. The documentation say that VPC 6.1 will run on OSX or OS9 but that it needs a 500 MHz or faster processor in OSX - which rules out the powerbook. Presumably I can run VPC if I boot up in OS9 - would that mean that I should be booted in OS9 when I install it. Ive run it (slowly but surely) on a 350BW G3 under OSX, it went much better under 9 of course. I dont think it matters which OS the install is done under, but dont quote me;) Does VPC install different versions of the software for OSX/OS9. If not and I mistakenly try to start VPC when in OSX what might happen: - it refuses to launch - it tries hangs - it launches but is not usable - it brings the mac to its knees the first three would not be a problem but the last would be a worry - is there any potential to crash/corrupt OSX. It is the only app that has completely frozen this mac under OSX, however no real harm done. Almost funny really. The powerbook only has a 10GB drive so I don't want to partition - presumably it would be OK to have OS9, OSX VPC on the same partition provided I restarted in OS9 before launching VPC. You can tell it to limit itself to a certain size or even set it yourself to a fixed size, its very slick, more so than a real PC most times. If you are putting it to use, XP will soon begin to fill even a 3gig HDD on a PC so beware. TIA Neil Youre welcome Paul

We're on our way to do the 2003 World Solar Challenge
Hi folks, After months of speculation, weeks of anticipation and days of packing, we're hours away from leaving - well it's nearly 8pm on Friday and we leave at 6am on Sunday - but you get the idea... As some of you know, the 2003 World Solar Challenge runs from Darwin to Adelaide from October 19th to 28th. The West Australian team, Sungroper, has asked us to do their logistical support - which might have something to do with the fact that the team has a high percentage of geeks who just happened to know about our satellite dish and associated Internet connectivity. We said you bet! Some also may know that Yahoo is running a competition to find special Internet cafes to celebrate ten years of Internet cafes around the world. In their categories, they have one that runs under the heading: Most Remote or Unusual location. With us travelling down the Stuart Highway with a mobile satellite dish - we figure we have it in the bag... Every night we'll unpack the dish and update our web-sites and keep everyone - including yourself - informed about our progress. We'll even leave you with some web-places to visit and read up on our travels... We're just about finished packing up and ready to leave Crossing Falls (near Kununurra in the far north east of WA - so far north east that it's 20 km to the NT border!) Tomorrow the dish - and thus Internet gets packed away, so this is one final message before we hit the tarmac. We'll go past Victoria Crossing, Katherine, and many other places on our way to Darwin, where we'll arrive on the 15th or so. Get ready for the race, big shop, last minute preparations, the race starts on Sunday October 19th. There have been reports of news coverage on Channel 10, and I suspect there'll be others - who knows you might even see us with our little van and saucer - we'll be with the yellow coloured shark car towards the end of the pack... So, places to read up on us: http://www.sungroper.asn.au/ http://www.wsc.org.au/ If everything goes to plan, we'll even have some time to put some daily photos up on the ITmaze site at: http://www.itmaze.com.au/cafe/ So, hang on to your hats, we're on our way! We'll read our emails, so keep them coming - while we're offline they'll get stored and you'll receive a message to that effect.
