Sender Verify is Back!

Well after a short stint off recently, I have re-enabled the possibly cumbersome, highly annoying, yet so wonderfully useful Sender Verify function in Exim - I have a love/hate relationship with this system, while it does a wonderful job of blocking spoofed email addresses, the downside is not all servers respond to the check - so thus, mail get’s bounced.

I am going to work on tomorrow on my test box deploying a whitelist system, so folks having issues can open a ticket, give me a domain, and I can whitelist it - should help out some, but others it could be problematic on, but I have some logs being monitored to see if anything pokes its dirty head in there.

Quite a night, quite a morning, got the ball rolling on the link, looks good, even had it tested today by one guy, so far so good - picked up a server migration project, as well as $150 tune up fee, also need to get some sleep tonight and call out tomorrow to the photographer about her website and let her know first and foremost, it was me who secured her domain name for her, so lots to do, and hopefully some sleep to do it with here shortly, need to snap a pic of my mug for the 365 project, however I need to also get up the 2 missing days (tiny detail) thinking of posting the daily shots weekly, but that’d kind of defeat the purpose,  but one thing I know from the recent shots, I need a haircut and a shave.

Anywhoo - have lunch sometime this week I hope with Mr. Dan, possibly another day with Mr. Adam, who knows, if Jake likes food, maybe even go with him :) but some fun, some projects, its all good, for now its night night time. Night folks.
