Mail server update

I made a change to the mailserver on Sunday to prevent peoples passwords from being sent unencrypted over the Internet. If you are experiencing any difficulties sending or receiveing mail, you may need to check/update your mail configuration. Click here to see the recommended settings.

The webmail also stopped working at that point, as I forgot to update it's configuration. It's working again now. Apologies for the inconvenience - increasingly dangerous hacker activity recently has put me on a slightly higher state of alert.

 
Server upgraded

I had to upgrade the kernel on the server over the weekend, in order to fix some bugs preventing me from using Virtualisation technology successfully. Unfortunately, the server has since become unstable, and due to some changes in the filesystem, the old kernel will no longer mount root. So, the best solution was to upgrade the server (to 'Intrepid Ibex'). The server has been sporadically unavailable for the last 24hours, so apologies to those affected. All seems to be stable again, and my VMs are working nicely now.
 
Spam folders

All mail users now have a 'Spam' folder. Any incoming will be scored as usual by the server. Those with a low or zero spam score will go directly to your main inbox. Those with a medium spam score will go directly to your Spam folder. Those with a particularly high spam score will be discarded.

Hopefully that will help us to keep the signal-to-noise ratio in our inboxes to a more sane level.
