1/27    I'm trying to use SMTP auth over TLS. It works fine with Thunderbird,
        but some versions of Outlook Express fail to connect
         Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2800.1506 (works)
         Microsoft Outlook Express 6.00.2800.1106 (doesn't work)
        How does one get the latest build of MSOE?
        \_ Nevermind, the problem is MSOE can only do TLS SMTP on
           port 25. No luck using port 587/submission.
        \_ Nevermind, the problem is MSOE can't do TLS on a port OTHER
           that 25. Time to switch everybody to Thunderbird.

4/8     What's a good free e-mail provider? I don't want to use Gmail,
        Yahoo, Outlook, or any of those sites with features I never use that
        track my personal info and keep changing their interface. I want just
        simple e-mail without privacy issues or all the baggage these large,
        for-profit companies are adding. I might even be willing to pay.
        Recommendations?

3/10    What email program do people in Cal CS use nowadays?  In my school days
        people used /usr/bin/mail, then RMail in emacs, then VMail in emacs.
        After my days people used Elm, Pine, Mutt (I forgot which order).  In
        my first two jobs we could tell the seniority of fellow engineers based
        on which email program they use at work, because everyone used what
        they used to use in their school years.  In my last two jobs though,

9/9     What should outbound mail server be when reading mail from soda
        with IMAP? Is there a FAQ?
        \_ It's <DEAD>mail.csua.berkeley.edu<DEAD> (same as for incoming mail).
           \_ "The message could not be sent because connecting to SMTP
               server <DEAD>mail.csua.berkeley.edu<DEAD> failed. The server may
               be unavailable or is refusing SMTP connections."

11/11   My RAID box has an email alert setting that requires an SMTP

11/18   Say I've written a pcap-based program which pulls out the message
        body of unencrypted SMTP sessions and writes those into file1 file2
        file3 ... fileN. Is there a simple way to get a spam-score for
        each of those [based on message body, not SMTP headers, sender
        reputations etc]. I'd like to have a program warn me if some
        IP address inside my institution starts sending say >10 suspect
