Switching SMTP servers will always cause
problems. When we first switched to Postfix, I had problems with the email
interface for mod_blog. It turned out
that postfix set the default permissions of child processes to be
restrictive and the patch was to relax the default permissions.
Of course, I forgot about that with the software I wrote for
Spring.
But it didn't really matter since she rarely, if ever, used the email
interface.
Until today.
It took me quite a while to track down the problem and add a one line
fix.
Spring is now a
distributor for Discovery Toys, and
tonight was her first party, where toys are displayed and sold. The toys
themselves are educational in nature, and I found myself having quite a bit
of fun with the Markbleworks Raceway Construction Set.
The party itself was small, Spring's sponsor, Kelly, Gus and Angel but quite successful given
the small turnout.
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
