"So long, and Thanks for All the Fish" February 29, 2008
Posted by evilzenscientist in : evilzenscientist , 10 commentsFriends,
After eight years of ups, downs and truly unique Novell moments I have decided to leave Novell. My last day will be 7th March.
It’s been a long journey since 1999 and ZENworks for Desktops 3. My list of close friends, mentors and truly remarkable people is long.
My thanks to you all; I wish you all the very best.

13,000 spam mails between 6am this morning and lunch time. Ouch.
There were some 46,000 mails in the queue for the bayesian filter.
I had to manually go and delete the ‘marked as spam’ queue to clear out the congestion. Things seem back to normal - I don’t know what caused the huge surge in spam overnight.
