Very true, though in Ku band, the figure-8s should lie entirely within a
couple of decibels of peak for the beamwidth of your dish.
Likewise, the DBS satellites in question (GE-4 I think, but dont quote
me) uses spot beam antennae, so realistically there's a great deal of

We have recently implemented a policy on our mail servers of not
accepting mail from hosts that do not correctly resolve via reverse DNS.
While we on the technical side love the idea, there have been some
questions from the business side of the house.
If an ISP who doesn't have

Anyone know what's going on with ep.net? It's been unresolvable since
at least yesterday.
PAIX, SIX and several other exchanges point to ep.net to register for
an IP assignment at the exchange.
The two authoritive servers, flag.ep.net (198.32.4.13) dot.ep.net
(198.32.2.10) are not working by

Perhaps, but do recall that there are systems out there which have

Actually, and for the record, PAIX gets its IP address blocks from EP.Net
but we don't use them for address allocations/registrations within those
blocks. That's handled inter

If you use sendmail as your MTA, you can configure it to do it with the

Simon,
As with all good marketing and/or tabloid periodicals, spinning events such
