Re: Donations
I would have to agree that the people of the United States have lost some of their essential libertys. The problem has been in defining what exactly ARE the essential libertys and then getting our congress and our president to keep their mitts off of them. Still, I would argue that even now there are few places in the world where the people can enjoy liberty as freely as in the United States. Additionally, for purposes of this thread, the Ben Franklin quote is a complete straw-man. Ben ...

NAT64 via pf/OpenBSD
Hi, We're currently deploying some IPv6 connectivity (no flame wars please), and need to provide a suitable transition solution for IPv6 only clients to access IPv4 services. At a bare minimum generic TCP/UDP/ICMP services should be supported for large pools of users. I'm aware of Reyk's work here: http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-cvs&m=121676868023535&w=2 but IFAIKT this doesn't address several of our requirements.

HP NC550SFP 10GE card
Can't seem to find anything bout this, so I thought I'd ask - is there presently support for the HP NC550SFP (ServerEngines BE4210/BladeEngine2TM chipset according to [1])? If not, what's a good alternative 10GE card? Something from Myricom?

Re: OT - gmail alternatives
I checked DNSBL and my IP seems OK for all of them. So it's just 3, and Verizon won't set DNS settings for me so unless I run my own DNS servers there's nothing I can do to resolve my IP address into my domain name instead of my ISP hostname? (Instead of @verizon.net hostname translation @mydomain.com)

Re: OT - gmail alternatives
Even IF you run your own DNS servers, you don't have access to setup the reverse DNS. The only way to get reverse DNS is to purchase the service from Verizon with a static IP. The only way to run your own server with dymanic IP and have it validate properly is to forward through Verizon's SMTP server that is authorized for your location. [Or use Gmail or another public provider for your SMTP traffic.] Lee

Re: OT - gmail alternatives
My ISP refuses to modify any DNS settings and won't give me a static IP address without a business account, so no proper reverse DNS. I don't have the resources to run my own nameservers, so what alternatives do I have in terms of running my own mailserver?

Re: OT - gmail alternatives
You'll probably want to use some free dns servers online (like freedns.afraid.org). Maybe another ISP might help in getting a static IP. I have a residential line, from a mostly-business ISP, who charges $250 for a symettric static-ip connection. It sucks, but I run lots of my own stuff at home. ARP Networks DOES have OpenBSD VPS. I run my mail there. How secure it is, is still up to how trustworthy they are. Probably lots more that gmail.

Re: OT - gmail alternatives
Do you have a static IP address? Many spam-filters drop messages from any IP address known to be in a dynamically-assigned pool. Do you have reverse-DNS properly set up? That is, if your IP address is A.B.C.D, is there a 'D.C.B.A.in-addr.arpa PTR <FQDN>' DNS record (where <FQDN> is the fully-qualified domain name for your mailserver, e.g., mail-server.example.com.)? Dropping messages from systems without this is also popular. Also, some ISPs block or divert all outgoing traffic from ...

Re: OT - gmail alternatives
The problem isthat you won't pass muster when you're checked for a reverse IP lookup. It's highly unlikely you'll want to use as your hostname the alphabet soup your ISP assigns whatever machine is on your current IP, and even if you do, your machine won't be delegated to handle mail within that domain.

Re: OT - gmail alternatives
Two things are probably occurring: 1) Many ISPs block outbound email on port 25 to prevent SPAM abuse. 2) You will not be able to send email directly to most email servers because your server identify cannot be verified. The best solution is to forward your SMTP traffic trough your ISP. Lee

Re: OT - gmail alternatives
The private part may introduce a false sense of security. While it's easy enough to set up authentication and encryption between your clients and your mail server, it's pretty much a sure thing that some (and most likely all) connections *between* mail servers will send stuff in the clear. Unless you're only exchanging mail with other servers that use the same auth/crypto that you have, the privacy ends at the mail server. Of course client privacy is much better than nothing (especially ...
