Kudos

I imagine that most of the email you get is because of problems and that
people rarely go to the effort of taking the time to commend great service.

I’m simply writing to tell you that your service has been great since
you’ve completed your updates to the systems. I can only describe it as
responsive, smooth, reliable and a great value.

In particular the addition of spamassassin has been a boon. I am now
manage more than 90% of my spam filtering on eskimo before email even
reaches my home workstation. I don’t believe a single spam has actually
made it to my in box on my home system so far this year.

Thank you for this wonderful service!

System Issues

Posted on by

     We had some issues this evening that were initiated by a minor system problem and turned into a more system wide issue by a cloudy minded system admin who just got out of the hospital yesterday.

     When I got up this evening I tried to access my e-mail and all the sudden my mail was gone.

      So I tried to check the size of my spool and the system told me I did not have permission.

      At this point it would not return to the command prompt nor would most of the servers I checked trying to identify the issue.

      After multiple reboots, I finally noticed ufw was missing the user rules on mail and that was the cause.  I suspect the rules disappeared because the machine ran itself out of disk space with debug data.
