and in the logfiles, it shows just on 7th, 16th and 26th of June more relay attempts than usual; the files are 8 blocks (4K) in size, so not that big.

However, I have AkisMet running on the blog and that shows over 800 spam messages for June – just these few days, and almost 800 for today alone; however, it may be related to the installation of the new version of the software installed tonight.

Fot the blog: I downloaded a number of themes that I like on first glance, and installed them. It’s now a matter of determining which one will be applied. It may take a few switches in the coming weeks. For the time being, I customized the twentyFifteen theme that comes with WordPress. Next I encountered a number of issues with the editor screen when enabling the excerpt form: but this is admin only so I don’t bother too much – for now.
