The missing bits
I counted the number of messages that are not counted in PMAS’s statistics, are all received between 01-Sep-2008 and the moment I installed the new software on 09-Sep-2008 19:30: 134 found “quarantained” and 231 “discarded”, so 365 all together. Since the period is about a quarter of the month, a rather big number; but in general, over a longer period, it won’t matter that much; the delivered messages aren’t counted either. Given the statistics, that would have been about 36. That makes sense.
Plans for the weekend
I plan to do some major updates this weekend: Install a number of VMS patches, upgrade the blog software to the latest version (and create a script to cope with the newly introduced incomptability, since the WordPress sources are not likely to be changed to accomodate OpenVMS out-of-the-box), and migrate the blogs tho the new version. Of course. I’ll have a backup if something fails.
