SPF record added for 'golder.org' mail

I've added an 'SPF' (Sender Protection Framework) record to the 'golder.org' DNS system. This basically means that, if you are not using the 'golder.org' server for outbound mails, there is an increased chance that mails from you to other people sent using your '@golder.org'  address will bounce. To ensure your SMTP settings are correct, compare the settings in your mail cilent to the settings described here.
 
Yet another server move

Quick note to say that, over the last couple of weeks, in between moving back to Thailand from the UK, I've migrated all the 'golder.org' services off of our 1&1 server and ended it's contract. I wiped the server hard disk a few moments ago, after taking a final backup.

The services are all now running on an Amazon EC2 instance in 'the cloud'. Hopefully, this should make it a lot more responsive, resilient and easier to maintain. The migration appears to have gone quite smoothly and I'm not aware of any regressions at this point, but if you experience any difficulties, please let me know.

 
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.
