I think that may have been my post a few months back and we didn't get much

Sporadically we have messages that are placed in the Undelivr folder with a
maillog message like "Error","schedular-0","03/31/09","08:30:04",,"[EOF]".
These messages can be moved into the Spool folder, and they are sent just fine.
We have many messages that are very similar content: most pro

Indeed. Well done Peter. Cross browser CSS layouts can be a nightmare. The

Thanks for clarifying.
So by "recoverable," do you mean a problem where the server is temporarily
unavailable? If that's the case, eeek. That's a bad situation to be in.
Generally, it just doesn't happen, so this isn't a problem you typically
have to solve.

Oh, and an idea for solving your current problem (assuming you can't just rip

Set a class on a high-level container (ideally body) to identify the

class="firefox 3 mozilla"
class="chrome 1 webkit"

*nods* That would work.. But I took your question to be more along the
lines of loading specific parts of the CSS file only based on what
browser is loaded (so only 1 body section with different textcolor
attributes).

First, start by writing standards compliant HTML with a valid Strict DOCTYPE -
this is the best way to avoid most of the browser bugs in the first place.
(I recommend the HTML5 DOCTYPE for simplicity; is all there is
to it.)
Create one master stylesheet, and code it according to the CSS standa

Keep in mind that a column rename is very expensive and I believe it changes
the underlying dbid of that column (which can cause schema caching issues).
What's going on under the hood is:
Add new column
copy column data
Delete old column
plus any indexing or FK stuff needed.

You can change the name of a column in TQL. In MSSQL there is a stored proc
called sp_rename that would do it. For getting all fields from a column in a
table, that is simply select colname from tablename.
If you wanted to pass the encryptes string into the db, not sure that MSSQL or

I think the issue is just making sure the engine doesn't make the assumption
for us. If I want it to add a month to the 30th, I want the default behavior
be that it adds a month, and doesn't assume I want the end of the next
month.

Hah, that's cool. I'd say it depends on how long you expect your database to
be down for, what DBMS you're using, how important the data is, how long the
user will wait for their data, and so on and so on. In other words, it
depends.
Generally speaking, you should never have to retry a query. It
A transaction that has rolled back due to a deadlock should always be
