Our current mail system's configuration
A while back I described our old mail system's configuration . Now it's time to describe our current mailsystem's configuration ('current' as of April 2010, although it's beenpretty stable for the past year or two).

每當銀行戶口只餘下三位數，
而整個月流流長，

月尾又是一條好囡的啦。
每次窮到不知所謂的地步，
就會迸發出

這幾天家裏裝修，把全屋的地氈換上木地板，雖然不是很大的工程，但也要將大小房間廳堂裏的東西搬來搬去。最頭痛的當然是我的書房，先要把書入箱， 搬出書房，那已是十多個箱子，然後搬書架；那幾個大書架都跟牆壁接駁

How not to set up IP aliases on Ubuntu (and probably Debian)
Suppose that you need some IP aliases on an Ubuntu machine. So you go to /etc/network/interfaces and slavishly make yourself some, copying themain stanza a number of times to make entries that looks like this:
