[10:47:23 EDT(-0400)] <esm> kiiiiiiel
[10:47:31 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> ?
[10:47:36 EDT(-0400)] <esm> groupwise is the pits
[10:48:14 EDT(-0400)] <esm> its webmail client is the worst and it re-writes recipent addresses in a retarded way for internet delivery
[10:48:38 EDT(-0400)] <esm> ahahah so my post to the list came twice
[10:48:44 EDT(-0400)] <esm> and wow the lists are faster
[10:49:17 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> the uw hosted versus unm?
[10:50:06 EDT(-0400)] <esm> yeah
[10:50:20 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> yeah they're usually pretty snappy
[10:50:29 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> and that includes spam/virus filtering
[10:51:11 EDT(-0400)] <esm> they should filter out of the office messages
[10:51:16 EDT(-0400)] <esm> i just got hammerd
[10:52:19 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> yeah
[10:52:25 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> too bad those go directly to people
[10:52:52 EDT(-0400)] <esm> there should be an SMTP header tagging an email message as OOO
[10:52:56 EDT(-0400)] <esm> and just filter on the header
[10:53:32 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist>
[11:01:54 EDT(-0400)] <esm> i'm mass deleting tons of email that are archived away in folders
[11:01:58 EDT(-0400)] <esm> what a good feeling
[11:02:40 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist>
[11:02:43 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> lots of lists?
[11:04:09 EDT(-0400)] <esm> actually mostly JIRA emails and emails from local systems (cron jobs, etc) and postmaster emails.
[11:04:19 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> ah
[11:04:20 EDT(-0400)] <esm> i have whittled down my list mail
[11:04:27 EDT(-0400)] <esm> I'm going to set up a new filter though
[11:04:32 EDT(-0400)] <esm> list mail older than two weeks, delete
[11:04:37 EDT(-0400)] <esm> the archives are good enough
[11:04:38 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> yeah I'm addicted to Thunderbird's per-folder experiation policies
[11:04:53 EDT(-0400)] <esm> I'm going to request that nabble archive the lists
[11:05:00 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I have em setup on pretty much every folder that gets automatic mail
[11:05:05 EDT(-0400)] <esm> nice
[11:05:28 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> very handy to keep my mailbox size down
[11:55:59 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> hey esm how goes the re-worked ear assembly stuff?
[11:56:20 EDT(-0400)] <esm> it is happening. I have one more unit test in pluto to pass
[11:56:36 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> cool
[11:56:47 EDT(-0400)] <esm> i would have committed it last night but the last unit test fails - when assembling a war that doesn't have a portlet.xml
[11:56:54 EDT(-0400)] <esm> so I should have that done today
[11:57:51 EDT(-0400)] <esm> I've already switched up3 trunk (in my working copy) to use the code i've written for pluto and it should work no problem.
[12:02:07 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> cool
[12:02:21 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> so I found the last remnants of the XSS attack
[12:02:25 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> in a table named bandana
[12:02:29 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> weird
[12:02:32 EDT(-0400)] <esm> ha
[12:02:33 EDT(-0400)] <esm> weird
[12:02:40 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> I realized that we do a sql dump each night as a backup
[12:02:46 EDT(-0400)] <esm> bandana is the code name for one of their libraries or something like that
[12:02:49 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> so I just download that and greped
[12:02:52 EDT(-0400)] <esm> name sounds familiar
[12:02:53 EDT(-0400)] <esm> yeah
[12:02:54 EDT(-0400)] <esm> cool
[12:03:03 EDT(-0400)] <esm> ppl have too much time on their hands
[12:05:37 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist> in looks like that table is where the recently edited list is built
[14:11:36 EDT(-0400)] <esm> ok more photos u/l to flickr
[14:12:36 EDT(-0400)] <EricDalquist>
[14:13:25 EDT(-0400)] <esm> ah it takes a while for the tag to update
[14:13:32 EDT(-0400)] <esm> i have a new acct and it needs to be approved
[14:13:34 EDT(-0400)] <esm> http://www.flickr.com/photos/tags/uportaljhu07/
