This shouldn't have any user-visible changes, but I've upgraded to Debian "Sarge" since it came out a while back. One possibly noticible change is that the system is no longer spam filtering at the system level, but instead spam scanning is being done on behalf of each individual user. There are probably some new features in Mailman and Squirrelmail that showed up along with this upgrade. I'll be upgrading all the Gallery sites at some point in the near future, too. I've installed ClamAV and upgraded to Exim 4, along with Mailman 2.1 and Spamassassin 3.01. Exim is filtering all mail through ClamAV, as well as blocking some particularly annoying file attachments (.scr, .pif, .com, etc.). It's going through Spamassassin as well, though it is not using Bayesian filtering at this time, since it seems unwise to use a system-wide bayes database for all users. Users can now change their password over the web by going here. You'll need to log in with your username and your current password, and it will allow you to pick a new password. I think it's funny that I picked a color scheme that has turned out to be the current overused pallette for the web. Even the NetBSD project is in on it. Too bad Fortinbras runs Debian, eh? Hey, at least I'm hip. All the DNS caching issues have been resolved by now, and the new Zoiks website is up and running. Now I need to work on migrating the few people who actively use their old Everyone.net Zoiks accounts over here to Fortinbras, and all will be well. Welcome to Zoiks.net, my little pet project. There's a bunch of stuff hosted here for my friends and family, which is primary reason for Zoiks to be here. If I know you, I'll probably host your site too. Just ask. I'm just about ready to move the old Everyone.net mail system to its new hostname (old-webmail.zoiks.net), and this set of pages will be up for the world to see. Joy!
