If you're already a consumer of Amazon's services, you can get a Moto 5 Plus for a pretty reasonable price. It isn't a flagship phone, but it does everything I need it to, and at a price I can afford to replace (if it gets broken). I really like what Moto is doing with their software on the main button on the phone. It is a fingerprint reader like so many others, but if you set it up you can use it as a home button, a la iPhone. If you swipe left it goes back, if you swipe right it opens your app switcher, and if you do a long press it locks your phone. They've also used the gyro scope to give you easy access to things like the flashlight (two chopping motions), camera (twist your wrist while holding the phone), etc.

If it weren't for the fact that Motorola is now owned by Lenovo, that might be a good option. I've confirmed that my Moto G4+ has the same issues/malware/spying going on as the rest of the Lenovo ecosystem. Just don't do it!

How did you confirm that?

Edit: Not asking to be combative, I want to check my Motos.

Mostly because I'm seeing the same sort of random network breakage that @scottalanmiller saw with the yoga. Apps that just work anywhere else, just don't on a Motorola phone. I haven't actually did any packet sniffing, but that's mostly because I don't know what to look for.

I also get the phone doing just random actions. I'm not doing anything, but something is taking control of the thing.

Walks like a duck, quacks like a duck.

You're probably ducked. Heh.

@emad-r They are asking for SFTP which will definitely be easy. We already use WinSCP and have no issues. Just second guessing myself and looking for some input from others.

What are you using for your SFTP server today?

You know the things about ducks... you can always expect a big bill!

Comcast Webmail is also using Zimbra.

Not the best endorsement.

@rojoloco He is also the guy that told everyone that they should have XBMC on their laptops to stream "free" movies and TV shows. I get to look like the dick for taking it off.

Wait, they watch movies and shows at work? What kind of workplace is that?

My kind of workplace!

Looks like a neat idea. Treat the OS as a database, standard query language across platforms.

Instantaneous Storage Evacuation Event

Just finished with lots of updates and I think that it might be working. I've asked the end user to give it a try and let me know if it is fixed or not. But from what I can tell, it is way better.

And... she doesn't know her username.

Have you tried looking in /etc/X11/Xwrapper.config ?

Make sure that you have...

@Pete-S said in Building a Mail Server:

If you put cpanel on a server - not saying you should - but don't you get a complete mail setup with dovecot, postfix, spamassasin and the whole shebang? And then set it to relay smtp through mailgun.

Isn't that what all those website and email providers do? Or are they each running custom configs?

Typically they only offer IMAP and POP, even a web interface is rare. It's normally very basic email, not "groupware" like most business mean with calendars and stuff. So you have to bring your own IMAP client.

Hey yo! What's up everybody!

Had a vendor use this phrase with us today and I have no idea what it might refer to. Never heard this term before and a quick Google of it turns up... zippo. Anyone know what they might be referring to? This is from a DNS host manager.
