it is a classic age old elitism thing... oh yeah you should know... I know someone who broke into over 2000 computers years ago and someone else who distributed a widely acclaimed worm of its day... needless to say their argument and logic was the same understandably... OH THE DUMB ADMIN...
Being an admin has many functions and responsibilities... One important quality is the ability to learn.. another is the prioritization of important things... This argument falls there... Again I guess I will ask it, if open relays are so bad from this side of the house, why do we even include them in mail servers? Just because someone stumps you at Jeopardy on one question doesn't make you stupid or them gifted :) -paris -----Original Message----- From: Bryan Stevenson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, December 06, 2001 13:17 To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: OT: SPAM lists? Well Len thanks for calling me lazy and incompetent. Until I got blacklisted I did not know about open relays. So how does that put me in either category? The mail server I was running had no documentation about the possible abuse of or even the existence of open relays. I'm the first to admit that my face was red when I found out that the situation existed and I dropped everything else I was doing and fixed it immeadiately. I can guarantee you that had I received a warning, it would certainly would have "energized" me to deal with the situation. Please watch those blanket statements in the future...because I am far from lazy or incompetent...you weenie ;-) Bryan Stevenson VP & Director of E-Commerce Development Electric Edge Systems Group Inc. p. 250.920.8830 e.
