Recommendations for/against Comcast Business as an email provider
Slightly off-topic, although I got my foot stuck in this door since I have installed and maintain a LAMP server and apps at this client site. So, there's a bit of Linux in there. I have a client running a small business with my LAMP server as his only non-desktop machine, and Comcast Business for internet provider. He's been using a patchwork of email services over the years (they use AOL and Yahoo! email addresses and a former web design firm provides their domain's POP server.) They are entitled to Comcast Business email as part of their internet package. I wondered if folks here had experience with setting up other clients with Comcast. In particular, my concerns are reliability (losing email during business hours means lost business) and whether they provide decent spam filtering. I've set up other clients with Google and/or Google Apps Premier ($50/year/user) accounts, and their IMAP servers provide nearly 100% uptime and excellent spam filtering. Providing email, spam filtering and network support is really beyond the scope of my services - mostly software development and application support -- so I'm hoping to find a service reliable enough to just configure once and leave running, with the occasional rare tweak. I don't see these folks having any need for an inhouse mail server if reliable services are available elsewhere. I'd welcome any recommendations and/or experiences. -- Ted Roche Ted Roche Associates, LLC http://www.tedroche.com ___ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
e-mail sync options?
This is going to start-off silly-sounding, but bear with me: My wife called and told me, a few months back, `Wikipedia is down!'. It took me a minute to figure out that she actually did mean that *Wikipedia* was down--not her laptop's WiFi, not our WAP, not our residential-grade DSL (*again*...), but Wikipedia. Of course, part of the reason that I was so befuddled by this was that *I* hadn't noticed. I'd consulted Wikipedia several times while it was down. Well, I'd consulted the Wikipedia *content*--not the web-site. When I bought my WikiReader, I had expected it to give me access to Wikipedia when *I* was offline, but it turned out that it also served me well when *Wikipedia* went offline. So, now I'm thinking: what other parts of the Internet can I download and carry around in my (offline) pocket? I know what you're thinking, and--for many aspects of the Internet-- you're right: that's just silly. But, for some things, is *does* make sense: e-mail, for example. Especially if I take the idea back to when *I'm* the one offline (like when I'm on a trip to Maine, working on one of my FOSS projects, and I realise that I need to dig something out of an e-mail thread to get past a block). Now, obviously I can't *send* or *receive* *new* e-mail unless I'm online, but I can *read* and *write* e-mail while offline. So, that's what I wanted to ask you all about (what better place to ask about e-mail than on an e-mail list? And I guess I'll take the answer *online*, for the time being...). The platforms where I care about this are on my laptop (running Debian), my desktop (idem), my server (idem), and on my FreeRunner (which is similar enough, inside). _What I want_: I'd like to be able to offline have access to my entire e-mail store from all devices--be able to search through and read messages, write messages and queue them for sending, move messages between folders, set/change flags on messages--and then have everything sync-up every which way when I go online: I want messages that have been queued for sending to be sent, I want messages that were already in the store(s) to have changes to their flags propagated, and I want new inbound messages to be retrieved and cached locally. Basically, I want everything mirrored everywhere, and I don't want to have to think about *where* something last changed. I could just write a suite of code to implement this myself, but maybe someone can save me the effort by pointing me to a canned solution :) _What I've tried_: Right now, I read my mail with Gnus in a Screen session on my server, talking to an IMAP server on the same host, which is also my MX and also services all of my SMTP needs. Mail is in a Maildir tree. Most of the flags are stored in the Maildir message status-bits (the trailing part of the message-files' names), but some flags are stored however the IMAP server does that. I occasionally run Claws Mail on the FreeRunner to read mail via IMAP, but all mail-reading/-writing is done through the Gnus/Screen session in the sky when I'm using either my laptop or desktop; though, if I can get a general N-way mail-sync solution in place, then I'd like to change that--and always read and write mail locally). The reason that Gnus is talking to a local IMAP server instead of just using the Maildir directly is partly that Gnus' Maildir support is basically terrible (and I should make an apology for the langauge, at this point, by paraphrasing Michael Elkins: all mail clients suck, but some suck less): the Gnus people invented their own method of storing message-flags *outside* of the Maildir flagspace, and Gnus assumes that it is the only thing reading the Maildir that cares about flags. To be fair, Gnus had to maintain its own list of flags when using Maildir, because it supports more flags than Maildir does (in other words, the other part of why I'm using a local IMAP server is that Maildir is also, in some aspects, terrible--though). Gnus appears to still suck (though less) even going through IMAP, because it doesn't quite have the right mapping between Gnus-internal and IMAP flags--Gnus' `expirable' and IMAP's `Deleted' seem analogous to me, but Gnus effectively doesn't map either flag in one space to *anything* in the other space, so all of my `expirable' messages just show up as `Seen' outside of Gnus, and all of my `Deleted' messages show up as `old' inside Gnus. I have a small hack in place that does equate `Deleted' and `expirable', but if anyone has another suggestion for working around this, or has an explanation of how I'm mistaken, or how VM-mode or something is better than Gnus, then I'd be appreciative. I've tried Thunderbird, and it doesn't look like a viable option-- partly because I can't stand the lousy built-in text-editor (though I guess there are extensions that'll kluge-in support for spawning an external editor), and because it doesn't have any functionality for cleaning-up the broken formatting in some of the messages that I

Re: Recommendations for/against Comcast Business as an email provider
In keeping with what appears to be list etiquette I have chosen to partially ignore your subject line and provide an alternative solution to your issue. :) I have not used email through my Comcast business connection (have Comcast + DSL for redundant connectivity at work). Instead I chose to use Postini (owned and run by Google) to filter spam, viruses, and provide uptime. They are NOT a free service but they are very cheap and VERY GOOD. It is simple to use and simple to setup. Via the Postini web interface I had to: add email addresses and aliases, setup my internal/receiving host server address, and specify some options like level of spam filtering, whether to accept or reject email to unlisted addresses, etc. After the intiial setup, adding an email address or deleting one takes about 1 minute via a web interface. To learn the interface, understand the options (it's google, it can take a bit), figure out all the actual addresses and aliases in use as opposed to just configured, and setup 25+ email addresses with an additional 40 aliases took about a day. Most of that was spent on items 2 and 3. My rambling point being: if you understand email options, it ain't rocket science to setup. At my internal site I had to setup postfix, web based email, and change my MX records to point to Postini. I also recommend you set the firewall to only allow external mail access from the Postini servers (after a delay to let the TTL for the old MX records die). Net result, EXCELLENT spam filtering and stats (over the last hour 95% of all my email never came down the pipe, currently all spam, no viruses), virus scans by multiple anti-virus, virtually 100% uptime (I've been down for maint before, they buffer several gigs of deliverable email) and ZERO complaints (OK, I too have a user or two that complains about EVERY spam message, that doesn't count). Cost is $12 per year per actual email address (not aliases, which are free). I think they have a more hosted version for about $25/year which MAY (or may not) be closer to what you want, I haven't used it. Pricing link for various service options/levels is: http://www.google.com/postini/compare.html They provide an email summary to each user about quarantined emails and the individual users can release their own quarantined messages if you like. They support user level white/black lists (again individual users can manage them via the web interface). I no longer have to update email anti-virus or spam lists, or deal with users white/black lists, or deal with spooling during down time, ... I get to keep internal email with internal email security, scripted backups, retention policies, etc. The is a very low/no maintenance way to get web based filtering and spooling but local email (no hacking of web email or social engineering of web passwords, local backups and retention). It gets you Google's uptime and spooling etc. that you mentioned, with some local control. Obviously the level of local control you may want/need is likely one of the deciding factors in your case. I think you can get a demo from them. If not, let me know and I'll be happy to show you the web interface if you are in the Nashua area.

If I can sync between machines on the same LAN segment when possible, and synch the laptop or handheld to the server in the sky when I'm off-lan, and then sync the laptop and the handheld to each other, and so forth..., then it seems like that'd be a win in terms of sync-speed (it's much faster to sync my laptop directly to my desktop the 100T than it is to sync either with the server in the sky, especially if I have to sync one with the sky-server and then the other with the one...; and it's *much* faster to sync the FreeRunner with anything local than over the GPRS link). But I know that tools that are just designed to sync pairwise can be utterly confused/broken by complex sync-topologies (so when I sync my files with Unison, for example, I normally just use a star topology-- and an eager one at that). Also, is it reasonable to start/stop offlineimap in my ifup/ifdown scripts, to have it keep a `running sync' while I'm online?

Re: e-mail sync options?
Hi Joshua, Thanks, Ben Ha! My brain totally skipped the last paragraph of your first email in which you mention OfflineIMAP as a possibility and wonder about the topology question. Sorry. That wasn't very helpful. --any thoughts on the `sync topology' question, since I've got 4+ machines where I want the mail-store kept in sync? My set up was much simpler, since I was just syncing between a laptop and a single IMAP server. I suspect what you want to do is not a well-trod path, and that you'll end up having to do some experimentation to figure out what will work best. Thinking more it seems like some combination of technology and policy should get you pretty close to what you want. Some local IMAP servers + OfflineIMAP + shell scripts + when I go to the woods, I will only sync the Freerunner against the IMAP server on the laptop, and I will sync the laptop IMAP to the hosted IMAP first thing when I return. Since I'm being unhelpful, I will also suggest that while you can probably design a set up to meet your requirements, maybe that time would be better spent on other things. There's a continuum of email-connectedness that goes like this: Don No email Knuth Email, all the time, everywhere |---| And I personally am finding that I'm happier if I live nearer the Knuth end of things. But I'm a cantankerous middle-aged man. YMMV. Also, is it reasonable to start/stop offlineimap in my ifup/ifdown scripts, to have it keep a `running sync' while I'm online? Yes, that's basically what I did.
