14:51:10 ralphm argh. I have the most awesome mail in the summit mailinglist queue, awaiting approval.
14:51:26 ralphm (it is slightly over the maximum size limit)
14:53:22 Kev Is what you mean "Please, oh wonderous Kevin, release my mail"?
14:53:25 Kev Because I think I can do that.
14:53:30 Kev goes to look up passwords.
14:55:22 ralphm Kev: yes, please
14:55:24 Kev Mailman needs an "Accept mail, but give Ralph a slap on the wrist for making it too large" option :)
14:55:46 ralphm It has a crucial image in one of the attached e-mails
14:56:54 Kev This seems to be taking quite some time to make it to my inbox.
14:57:25 ralphm Kev: I have it in my now. Thanks
14:57:35 ralphm (my inbox)
14:57:42 Kev I don't think you're the one that needs it :)
15:00:34 ralphm True
15:00:46 ralphm Kev: cool, huh?
15:00:56 Kev I have no idea - still not got it.
15:01:15 ralphm maybe it is in your spam folder :-)
15:01:21 Kev Newp, already checked :)
15:01:37 Kev It's possible that site5 have decided to reject it, on its way through to gmail.
15:01:45 Kev I really need to get kismith.co.uk off site5.
15:03:48 ralphm :-(
15:04:06 ralphm I can send it to you directly
15:04:31 Kev http://mail.jabber.org/pipermail/summit/2012-January/000820.html
15:04:55 Kev Unfortunately, that still doesn't let me view the attachments.
15:05:20 Kev Could you forward it to mail address that matches my JID, please? That'll bypass all my normal mail stuff, so should get through.
15:06:23 Kev Fab, thanks.
15:06:24 ralphm sent
15:06:49 Kev Uhm.
15:06:57 Kev Sure that was the right mail?
15:07:24 Kev I just received a forward of one of my mails :)
15:07:36 ralphm oh hah
15:08:04 ralphm retry
15:08:20 Kev Much better, thanks :)
15:10:04 ralphm cool
15:12:26 Kev Ok, so, now that we've worked around site5's braindamage...yes, that's absolutely awesome.
15:13:20 ralphm hehe
15:18:27 jef has joined
15:19:52 Kev Now we have to find cool stuff to fill that with.
15:20:57 ralphm right
15:21:48 admin has joined
15:21:52 admin hi guys
15:21:55 admin sorry, was out
15:22:01 admin what's up?
15:22:25 Kev Seems we've got our realtime lounge :)
15:22:34 admin ooh, awesome
15:22:48 ralphm admin: check your e-mail
15:23:02 Kev Unless your provider's hopeless. *grumble*
15:23:10 ralphm (in the summit list)
15:24:36 admin ooh, awesome!
15:26:29 ralphm So I guess we need to get some beanbags
15:26:34 admin yup
15:27:07 admin Ikea has them for €29
15:27:13 admin no idea where we can rent some
15:27:45 ralphm and some kind of screens we could show some kind back channel, maybe not unlike the stuff I made at Mediamatic
15:27:55 ralphm I'm trying to get that code released
15:28:05 Kev Dave has a projector that I imagine he'll want to be taking.
15:28:11 Kev I don't know if we could use it for that.
15:29:02 ralphm loungerent maybe
15:35:01 ralphm admin: but it might actually be cheaper to buy them
15:41:58 Kev How many do we want? This doesn't sound like a lot of money.
15:43:34 Kev Difficult decisions. If I migrate away from my current site5+gmail combo because site5 seem to suck, do I go completely selfhosted, or just selfhost postgres to forward to gmail the way I have site5 currently doing? Tricky.
15:43:57 Kev Postgres?
15:43:59 Kev Postfix :)

22:21:11 kevin Kev: site5 is a good..Whats the problem with it?
22:21:48 Kev I've had a few problems over the years. Them breaking sites and things.
22:22:01 Kev The current issue is that their mail system is really quite daft and will reject any forwarded emails.
22:24:23 kevin Oh
22:27:12 kevin Kev: don't Google Apps - Gmal solve your problem?
22:27:24 kevin Gmail*
22:27:27 Kev I don't wish to use Google Apps.
22:29:01 Kev My question was, regardless, rhetorical.
22:29:34 kevin I used to hanlde my domain's mail via Google Apps for Business for quite a long time. Very simple setup, spam filters and management
22:31:33 jef has left
22:33:37 jef has joined
22:35:17 kevin Kev: you can setup an e-mail collector on your Gmail account instead of forwarding with site5
22:36:14 Kev Sure, but a) That means giving passwords to gmail and b) I don't see that it achieves anything.
22:40:05 kevin Kev: why would you mind giving passwords to gmail when you prefer it? assuming you forward from site5 not just to have a copy
22:41:00 Kev This is somewhat of a lesser issue to it not solving the problem :)
22:43:03 kevin brb..Good night all
