Main list config updates
by MJ Ray 21 Nov '01

21 Nov '01

The email list main(a)lists.alug.org.uk has had the following config changes: - More Content-Types blocked (to try to prevent more non-plain-text); - Content-Transfer-Encoding base64 blocked (8bit and quoted-printable allowed through); These shouldn't affect most people. We may try changing the strategy from specific blocks to a blanket block with some things (ie things that are clearly plain text) allowed through. Opinions? Email main(a)lists.alug.org.uk to discuss it. Of course, social still allows most things. -- MJR Anglian LUG http://www.alug.org.uk/ No ePatents http://petition.eurolinux.org/ FSF Europe http://www.fsfeurope.org/

Death of alug@stu.uea.ac.uk
by MJ Ray 05 Nov '01

05 Nov '01

At around 8pm on Monday 5 November 2001, the old email address alug(a)stu.uea.ac.uk will be finally disabled. Subscribers should ensure that they have the new email address main(a)lists.alug.org.uk in their address books and settings, which has been in use for several months. This is in preparation for the UEA Student Union ceasing to operate their mail server some time in December. Most people shouldn't notice any change, as the lists were moved many weeks ago. Thank you for listening. -- MJ Ray Email: markj(a)luminas.co.uk Director Tel: +44 (0)20 8553 6622 Luminas Internet Applications Fax: +44 (0)870 28 47489 This is not an official statement or order.

From: Robin Marjason <RobinM(a)belkin.com> Subject: [uklugs] Linux support with Belkin UPS Date: Thu, 18 Oct 2001 09:25:35 +0100 Dear Sir, I am not in the business of sending unsolicited mail but have received some positive feedback from Linux users regarding our range of Uninterruptible Power Supplies that you may find interesting. It seems Belkin may be unique as it offers free shutdown software that supports Linux. This software (Bulldog Sentry) facilitates a safe shutdown during an extended power outage. If you need any further information feel free to contact me (details below) or visit the relevant page at http://catalog.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Merchant_Id=&Section_Id=4 83&pcount=&Product_Id=120918&Section.Section_Path=%2FRoot%2FPowerProtection% 2FUninterr%2E%2E%2EerSupply%2F I hope this information proves useful. Yours sincerely, Robin Marjason Belkin Ltd Mob: 07876 745508 DDI: 01604 678381 Tel: 01604 678300 Fax: 01604 678330 E-mail: robinm(a)belkin.com http://www.belkin.co.uk
