<html><head></head><body>There was some discussion about setting up an email server on this very list not long ago. So if you're happy to talk about it that sounds great. Thanks.<br>
<br>
I look forward to the first annual SebFest ;)<br>

Does anyone have anything they'd like to <br /> demo or talk about? Doesn't have to be a formal talk. Or perhaps even a <br /> topic they'd like to debate?<br /></blockquote><br />I'm working on two little things at the moment which might be of some <br />remote interest to some people. After years of staying away from it, I <br />had to end up configuring the sending of emails directly from my own <br />server/IP address at home (no smart relaying through the hosting <br />provider's SMTP server) - and it, surprisingly, actually works. It <br />involves a bunch of steps to make sure other servers accept the outgoing <br />emails directly. I think we briefly touched on this topic in the past in <br />casual conversation with Neil.<br /><br />The second one is a USB based relay switch to power off-and-on again my <br />router if it disconnects from the Internet. This is a simple device <br />controlled directly from Linux on my server - no Arduino or other <br />smarter bits involved. Again, I believe Neil has something like this <br />already sussed for a while now - so maybe I should be in my usual role <br />of asking questions on this one :-)<br /><br />If there is any interest in either topic, we could organise a <br />mini-conference on it :-)<br /></pre></blockquote></div></body></html>
