The hoster is: https://tranquillity.se/ The sysadmin there did not tell me to shut it down, he did encourage me to continue, but I've decided to turn it into a middlenode for the resons mentioned earlier. On Mon, Aug 01, 2016 at 02:50:25PM +0200, simon wrote: > On 01.08.2016 08:15, stig atle

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA256 Well, maybe OT but nevertheless: The tor exit notice can be improved. I derived a good example from the WIKI and adapted it just a little bit for Germany: http://5.9.158.75/ And a second thing: If you close port 465, then you should close 587 as

I do not run it from home, as you can see in my post. So that was not the issue. On Sun, Jul 31, 2016 at 09:04:48AM -0500, Tristan wrote: > Except that if you do it right, you get a high speed unlimited bandwidth > relay. > > On Jul 31, 2016 9:03 AM, "Jonathan Baker-Bates"
