I'm back, mostly

Well, the move has gone relatively smoothly, with a couple exceptions. It would appear that the motherboard in my main machine went kaput, so I snagged a new one and finally got a chance to install it last night. In addition to that, my server machine was under a massive load once I got it back online this past weekend. And now that I've gotten my main machine back up I found out why: it would appear that somebody has been doing some serious spamming on AOL, using forged email from the rayners.org domain. I got somewhere in the neighborhood of 35,000 rejected emails coming back at me in the span of about three days. No wonder my server machine was running out of memory.

So, now that I've gotten that worked out somewhat, I can try and get back to responding to emails I've gotten over the last week or so (between the move, work, and school, I've been a little busy). So, I apologize if I haven't gotten back to you yet, but I am trying. It just may take me a few more days (seems IMAP doesn't want to delete or copy 35,000 (or even 15,000) messages at once, so it is going to take me a little while to clean things up).
