Techie geeky stuff

[trixtah]

I did something useful today, and wrote up my entire implemention regime for getting Postfix to relay mail to multiple Exchange servers without a bridgehead server. I put the whole thing on the Postfix wiki since it may be of use to other people. It certainly took me a while and quite a bit of brain-cudgelling to get it all working nicely, although once you see it in action, it's really quite straightforward.

Also, I have to thank damned_colonial for going, "Duh! Net::LDAP?" :-)

I really don't expect people here to read my deathless (techie) prose, but it's now immortalised for linkie purposes as Relaying mail to multiple Exchange servers. I'm hoping for two things: 1. It gets linked on the front page fairly soon; and 2. Some geek doesn't come along and say "Oh, here's this thing that takes 5 minutes to implement and much more efficient, and by the way, everything you've got here is wrong."

We'll see. O_o

(And I need a techie icon. Ack!)

You are brilliant.

Here is my techie icon.

Well done you. I've spent a great chunk of this week turning a broken implementation of a POP3 mailer on a shared folder into a set of sleek and speedy IMAP folders instead.

Remember Sesame Street, when Ernie sings "Rubber Ducky"? Thanks to your evil icon quest, I now have "Techie Ducky" lodged in my head.
