It’s snowing. It’s icy. Driving’s a mess. Someone up in the weather room ain’t paying attention, and I’m done with the whole “winter” thing. Knock it off already, it’s bad enough the only radio I can get has Stuntman Stu on it. Suck.
Did you know that
CFLAS
is not nearly the same as
CFLAGS
when building software? Did you also know that whitespace when specifying include or library directories will bite you in the ass sometimes? These two simple things can kill a day for you. Thankfully, while beating my head against that-which-should-have-been-obvious, I decided that postfix is way too basic for what I want it to do. I’m going with OpenLDAP for config and addressbook info, qmail with ldap support for the mta, courier-imap for the imap server, and SquirrelMail for the webmail client. I’ll also have a MySQL backend for useful things like individual user SpamAssassin settings. Still, I wasted some serious time in front of an xterm today. The scary part was I enjoyed it.
Maybe I should have wasted the day fighting ninjas like Walt, but I think there’ll be time for that in a couple weeks. Xbox Live goodness – mmmm…
