We get a lot of contact from people who say that at odd times they get a bunch of old emails through- and sometimes multiple times, leading to doubling or tripling of each message. So what to do? First we need to look at how email works between client and server. When you have a POP3 account, your email client
This post isn’t going to be very interesting for most people but it’s the results of a conversation I had online recently about what sort of maintenance to do for a VPS (Virtual Private Server). These things don’t require much manual help, but whatever you don’t watch will eventually fail, so I wanted to come up with some good strategies
