And I apologize to everyone for venting and veering this overall question/topic off the rails.
Right now I'm working on a new project I've been tasked with: Creating several scripts, one for setting default credentials for all IIS Sites, another for setting up application pools, another for websites, another for application setup, another for shared configuration.
Since this project is so simple, I'm thinking about creating a Powershell GUI for the scripts. (and also asking if I can just combine them all...Though I think I'll make them all separate as requested and then just make the one with the GUI)
So finally, after two weeks of literally doing nothing, I have work.
No worries. This thread is a good place to come vent.
Also, they purposely made the decision to let threads take their own course. Lots of threads weave through topics like a quilt. Not ideal to find the thing you said 2 years ago I'll grant you, but also allows a better exchange of information.
Also, this is the "junk closet" thread... If you want to be able to find something in two more years, just make a new thread for it and tag it as "RANT" or something.

@travisdh1 Oh ok good to know, I just didn't want to ruffle any feathers.
It's rare that you'll ruffle any feathers around here... most of us are permanently ruffled....

No worries here as "off the rails" happens often but tends to bring out great conversation.
There is always this thread too.

Trying to finish up final music composition project.

Quiet weekend with the dog. Time to do some catch up on work. Maybe even play a video game.

Well, MailGun shut us off again for no reason. Only ever takes a ticket and a day to get it fixed, but holy crap what a waste of time and not being able to email out for a day is crazy annoying. So that got me authorized to move everyone to Zoho ASAP. Woo Hoo. So my quiet weekend just became a Zoho migration!

I use Zoho for my personal E-mail. LLC is still using Office 365 Business Essentials suite -- tough to beat that price point.

Is it? What features are you getting at what price? For a small business (tiny), where is the value?

Zimbra to Zoho email migration went well. From what I can tell, everything is working. Zoho is so nice to use.

Updated UNMS to 0.14.2 today. Much nicer.

Mailgun was/is a email provider? I guess I assumed it was just a mass market mailing solution.

What's the difference? Obviously the "goals" or "intentions" are different, but both are just SMTP services. What makes GMail one thing and MailGun another is in the intended usages of its users.
-
Lots of people try to use GMail as a mass email marketing solution, for example.

I’ll make a thread about it later when I get home from visiting family. It’s something I’ve been wanting to think through for a bit. Figured I’ll do it for all of ML to critique

Netflix night with the wife.

Huge amount of old email cleanup. Man I store a lot of stuff.

looking for a cheap way to run up some test Windows VMs. Should I be able to do that on a linux VPS with Solus?

Should not be able to do it on any VPS. The assumption with any VPS is that you can't virtualize on top. YOu don't get IP addresses, virt extensions, etc.
