I hear that Gmail has recently started objecting to more mail from non-Gmail senders than usual.

So if you use Gmail, it might be a good idea to keep a closer eye than usual on your spam folder. (And mark non-spam as non-spam.)

And if you don’t use Gmail, and you’re waiting an unusually long time for a response to something that you sent to a Gmail user, it might be worth contacting them via other channels to make sure the mail reached them.

@elysdir As of Feb 1, Google and Yahoo (and possibly others) are spambinning senders without a DMARC record. It was supposed to just be bulk mail over 5k but it seems they are hitting anyone without the DMARC setting in your email config.

What is the most ridiculous question or complaint that you've had from a Customer/Client?

alison,
@alison@mastodon.online avatar

@RickiTarr I build and maintain websites. About two and a half years ago major client was notified that their version of CMS had reached end of life and they had two years of security updates to plan for the migration. They were reminded in the monthly maintenance reports as well specific emails several other times. Upon notice of version 2x newer was released and support of old ended I got the "why didn't you let us know" email. I replied with the specific dates. Real polite & attentive after.

@Uair @RickiTarr I was sorry to have to pause my reading of this most excellent thread to agitate the molecules of my chicken soup with too much stuff in it.

So two-thirds of the money raised for the 2022 #FreedomConvoy by the "Christ-centered" #GiveSendGo fundraiser - which also raised money for Kyle Rittenhouse, the Proud Boys, and the Jan. 6 Capitol attack perps - is unaccounted for?
You astonish me.

@CanadianCrone @gemelliz @AlisonCreekside @rcmp I'd like to find out why they are so supportive of Russia as well. I suspect filtered $$ from them as well as bot farm support.

3 important nuances you won't read in headlines or hysterical reactions from Conservatives.

  1. The judge said he would have supported invoking had he been sitting at the cabinet table.
    With the information they had at the time, Cabinet did the right thing.

  2. It's only with the benefit of hindsight, which the federal cabinet did not have, that the judge determines they erred.

  3. Invoking the Act in & was proper. He merely disputes invoking it nation-wide.

alison,
@alison@mastodon.online avatar

@gemelliz I find it remarkable that the Judge would have supported invoking the Act had he been there at the time and yet still ruled the way he did. At what point did anyone have access to hindsight. People make decisions based on the facts at hand and the facts were the police at any level and tow truck drivers were not doing their jobs.

Today, a petulant Pierre refused to answer her question and then shut down a Canadian Press reporter, "You're just a tax-funded mouthpiece to the PMO."

Poilievre's playbook = Trump's playbook:

  • ask which news outlet a journalist is from
  • proceed to attack their credibility
  • dismiss the reporter, then blame PM

Discrediting the press is a tactic to make the public distrust all media and a very effective tool to avoid answering questions.

    Court about to begin. The defense table, from left to right: Blanche, the defendant (ie Trump), Bove, and Necheles (notably farthest from Trump). Gaggle of photographers shoot Trump, inches from his face: he maintains an implacable and dour expression. ADA Josh Steinglass and his team now enter: Steinglass is very much the lead here.

    Write this law, no AI no crypto un;less you build new renewables to power the electricity demand.

    Not a credit, not an agreement with a forest, not some weird contract where penguins dont die in exchange for footprint shoes, just build it.

    New project, gigawatts, terawatts.

    Build it.

    Building New Energy is THE ONLY measure in fighting climate.
    The ONLY measure. Build it all, now.

    @kevinrns Agree but that still misses the water usage. You can build a solar far on a dessert but it won't give you water.

    Eine fremde Katze, zart und verloren, fand ihren Weg zu mir,
    Doch Abschied musste sie nehmen, mein Herz in Trauer, so schwer.
    Die Medikamente trüben den Geist, verwirren Emotionen hier.
    Wo ist mein Bauchgefühl, einst zuverlässig, einst klar?
    In der Leere des Versagens, im Schatten, so wahr.
    Ich fühle mich verloren, das Licht scheint so fern und rar.
