Good tips to keep your public account email secure:
  • Use trusted computers (home, office)
  • use a complex password (numbers, letters, capitalization, punctuation)
  • change your password regularly
  • keep a seperate dummy account for newsletters and various non-important email communications
  • Avoid using your email in public wifi hotspots, etc. Always over trusted networks.
  • Secure your own home,office wifi. With wep, wpa, etc. Use a mac filter list.

The intent is to thwart Spam bots and spiders, by NOT having the email address in the original HTML Source, but ultimately presenting it to...

Hi all; Just as an anouncement, I am working on developing a PostgreSQL-based mailbox driver for tpop3d (a GPL'd POP3 server). My general plan is to use this as a connector to the email components for my CRM software (HERMES). Eventually I will be adding IMAP and SMTP support as well. Do people see a need for using databases to store business emails? In my case, there is a definite need, but is this something which has a broader...

These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention.
