It's always nice to be part of a community. Offline and online. Though, in some places, it's hard to form a community. Like Instagram for example. That's why I decided on making my own Instagram community a couple of weeks ago.
On Instagram, there is no real way to shout someone out without breaking any laws or rules. Reposting someone's photo without permission is breaking the copyright law. But there is no way to reshare like on Twitter or Facebook.
To overcome this I decided to share people's posts in my Instagram stories. This way I promote the original upload and don't break any rules. Good thinking, Fred!
How my weekly Instagram community works
So, how does it go? What's the format of my weekly Instagram community shoutout? It starts with a title-screen, just to make you aware the shoutout is about to start. I then repost a couple of photos I enjoyed that week.
These photos are by people in and outside of my community. People I know, people I just follow, and even people I only started following that week because of that photo. I try to pick smaller accounts with amazing work. It's not about the numbers!
Then I feature the photos on my personal hashtag. People that use #Fredography all get a chance to be featured. There is no limit to how many I post in my Instagram community stories. Though, I don't want to bore my audience.
How to participate in the Fredography Instagram community
Participating is fairly easy: Just use the hashtags #Fredography on your posts. There is no limit to how many you can post with the hashtag. Though, I recommend picking the best ones. I'm only human and can handle only so many posts.
Then it's just waiting until it's Friday and see if you are featured or not.
What's in it for you?
A simple, but important question. What can you gain by using my hashtag? First of all visibility. My hashtag is fairly new and young, so the people scrolling through it are all highly engaged. Make sure to return the same engagement to them. 😉
Second of all extra reach to your post. As I post them, there are shown to my followers. The Instagram community shoutout is one of the most popular things in my Instagram stories. So you are sure to get likes and followers from it.
Not unimportant, you'll get recognition. I'm not going to claim I am a Steve McCurry or Ansel Adams, but I am a fairly good photographer. So it's always nice to hear someone, like me, that they like your work.
Be part of the Instagram community. Being discovered only works if you also want to discover. Go out and see who else is featured. Comment on their work, DM them some advice, or just spread the love!
Get cracking and use #Fredography on your Instagram posts!
Disclaimer: There is none, I just really wanted to write this piece of content for you. <3

#1 Re-alignment of Democrat and Republican Parties06-16-2019, 12:04 AM
The whole video is worth watching but the relevant portion is at 43 minutes to 53 minutes. The speaker is a highly intelligent Democrat who will begrudgingly admit when Trump is right. I don't agree with his analysis and prediction 100% but very close to it:
He doesn't come right out and say it but the batshit crazies are a flash in the pan, emboldened by their pathetic 2018 blue wave that really didn't happen.
My favorite line about the 2018 election: "It wasn't a Blue Wave, it wasn't a Red Wave, it was an Orange Wave."

Very interesting, with some insight. I think he's dreaming to think the Dems with capture the business-fiscal people. At best I think they have the social media and many tech people. But the business people Obama wrote off and the ones getting screwed over by the $15 minimum wage? I don't think so. Even in tech I think a lot of conservative-moderate people are hunkered down in survival mode. And a lot of people in tech - citizens and legal immigrants are East and South Asians, the ethnic groups against whom the Dems support/advocate discrimination. I think they have noticed this.
As for fiscal people, does he really imagine bankers, stock market people, and insurance people have not noticed Dem hatred for and attacks on them? And that accounting people and lawyers haven't noticed Dems' attacks on the foundations of their client relationships?Timeline of US Coronavirus Events & Actions: http://www.gopbriefingroom.com/index...tml#msg2169385

Facts don't matter to DUpipo.
BIG CHEETO Is Watching You!
I think we have to distinguish between Small Business and Big Business. Small Business will always get screwed by the Democrats. Big Business is willing to take public verbal lashing and still funnel money to anyone as long as they get their carve-outs, exemptions , subsidies and bailouts. Trial lawyers have been firm democrats for decades to prevent any tort reform.
Good point on minimum wage but the Democrats will need the House, Senate and WH to get that through. A Democrat president can keep the floodgates of immigration open under existing law enforcement (or lack of) and bend regulatory rules and administration with appointments and Executive orders to keep H1-B going, even when it does displace Americans for lower wage foreigners.
I think the Republicans big chance is to break the Democrat monopoly on the black vote; economics and social values.

A tug for all seasons. Picton terminals' first tug – an Icebreaking Stan Tug 1606
"The ice season here typically lasts for two or three months – from January until mid-March. This was the reason that we just had to have an ice-classed tug: to allow us to keep operating and delivering our product to customers," says Hank Doornekamp, owner of Picton Terminals, located on the Canadian side of Lake Ontario. He is talking about his company's newest asset – a Damen Stan Tug 1606 ICE called Sheri Lynn S.
Picton Terminals was initially established to ship Canadian iron ore to American steel mills on bulk carrier vessels that are better known in this part of the world as 'lakers'. Since buying the port four years ago, Hank has been looking to develop the port further. "There's a 70 foot face of limestone that we are taking down to a predetermined elevation to be able to more easily receive container vessels," he explains. "And we have 30 feet of water here, which is staggering for anywhere on the Great Lakes."
Most notably, though, this is a port development project that is actually creating its own revenue.
Compared to trucks, water transport is the cheapest form of moving products in this area. So we are processing the rock, putting it onto barges and shipping it out to various clients.
Scope of duties
And this is where the Sheri Lynn S shows her skills. "She works as an assist vessel for the larger barges. And for our next job – transferring stone for an airport runway extension contract – we will match her up to a smaller barge and work her as a pusher tug."
As a matter of fact, the interview for this article was carried out while Hank was preparing for a barge push assignment. "We are loading a crane that we have rented – a 150-tonne Liebherr 120 – onto a barge here," he states. "And our new Damen tug is going to push it the 30 miles back to the port. It's a big piece of equipment that would have taken nine trucks to transport by road."
Trust in construction
Looking at the highly competitive world of international shipbuilding, what made Hank approach Damen in the first place? "Well, I looked all over the Internet to see what options were available to us, including both new build and second-hand vessels. This was how I came into contact with Damen. I really like the lines and the features that they have. And of course availability is important. If you want to buy a tug here in Canada, you have two options. A second-hand vessel, which means it's about 50 years old, or a new build, which takes about five years from ordering. We just didn't have that time; Damen delivered the Sheri Lynn S within four and a half months."
"I wasn't involved in the construction process because of the trust in what I saw. So far this hasn't been a problem."
We have a list of outstanding issues which we are currently talking to Damen about but in general we are very happy.
Ice breaking services
The Sheri Lynn S marks an important step for Picton Terminals. "This is our first venture into owning a tug. Up until now we have rented our vessels when we have needed them. With our own tug, we can now turn that into revenue for ourselves."
Indeed, the Sheri Lynn S is already proved herself in vessel assistance, barge pushing and occasional crew boat duties. And don't forget her ice-classed hull too: "In terms of ice cover, this last winter was particularly severe, which actually worked out to our advantage as we could provide ice breaking services to other clients."

Visited the Roman Fort on Hadrian's Wall at Housteads, Northumberland recently. What gets to you about this place is that other than the remains of the Fort and the Wall there is nothing there. The sky wasn't very dramatic on this particular day but I took a few photographs anyway. I didn't use any filters as I wanted to try and show the natural beauty of the area.
What a task this must have been for the Roman soldiers who were stationed here defending the wall. I can imagine how cold it was when that North wind picked up in the winter and they didn't have the home comforts we have now to keep warm and entertained.
But it is a beautiful place, stark, but beautiful. Rolling hills, a few sheep, rabbits and quiet, really quiet. Sometimes being out in the countryside away from cars and people makes you feel good!

Guest Blog by Nick Burton | Our Best Doggo
Traveling with your dog requires a little more planning than when you take a trip by yourself. Thinking ahead is the best way to ensure you and your pooch both have an enjoyable trip and avoid unpleasant mishaps. There are always a few added costs involved when you travel with your dog, but these money-saving strategies will help keep those costs down.
What to Pack for Your Pooch
The best way to avoid mishaps is to be prepared, and that means having the right gear. Besides the everyday necessities you use at home, you also need a few extras to make traveling safe and comfortable for your dog. One of the best ways to save money on these items is to order online from vendors such as Amazon. You can maximize your savings even further when you shop with Amazon promotional codes and coupons.
Essential Travel Gear
First aid kit - Always be ready for the unexpected by traveling with a pet first aid kit. You can find budget options that are designed to be convenient for travel.
Travel safety - Whether you're driving or flying, you need a way to keep your pup safe on the go. Drivers can choose from car booster seats, harnesses, or dog seat belts. You may also need a carrier or crate to keep your dog housed on the way to and in your hotel.
Leash with waste bags attached - Along with a sturdy leash, having a method for waste pickup is a must. The easiest way to be prepared is by purchasing a container for waste bags that easily attaches to your leash.
Portable food and water bowls - Two of our favorite options include a water bowl designed to sit on car seats without spilling and a complete pet travel bag. The travel bag is a convenient way to keep everything in one place, and it's a good value since it replaces the need for several other products.
Know Before You Go
Along with having the right gear, researching dog-friendliness of the area you're visiting before you go is another absolute must. Be sure to consider potential activities, accommodations, and the overall pet-friendliness of the city you're exploring.
Even in the most dog-friendly locales, there may be times when you have to leave your dog behind. It's normal for dogs to get anxious when they're alone in a place that's unfamiliar. To avoid this anxiety and the ensuing behavior, one option is to search online ahead of time for a local pet sitter to keep him company when you can't.
It's also a good idea to stock up on new toys before you travel. Having something new keeps play fun and interesting, making it easier for you and the sitter to ward off boredom. Stay under budget by shopping for the best toys that are also inexpensive.
If you're traveling for fun, consider picking a city that's known for being friendly to dogs and their people. For example, New York is full of hotels that are pet-friendly, plus it has lots of dog parks and other places where your pup is welcome. Even if you need to get work done on your trip, you can find a coworking space like The Farm Soho where your dog is welcome too.
Picking a dog-friendly city gives you a big advantage in finding pet-welcoming accommodations. According to Smarter Travel, pet parents should also know that there is a difference between hotels that simply allow dogs and ones are truly dog-friendly. True dog-friendly hotels provide extra services for your dog, which are often complimentary. Save even more by choosing a hotel chain that doesn't charge extra fees for pets.
Many pet parents assume extra fees are unavoidable, but with a little research, you can often find ways around them. These tips are just a few of the ways you can travel with your pooch happily and affordably. From thinking about safety to making sure you have all the necessities, without spending a fortune, a fun trip for everyone comes down to preparation and planning.

The White House has said that US President Barack Obama reserves the right to act again against top terror suspects inside Pakistan, following the raid which killed Osama bin Laden.
Obama's spokesman Jay Carney was asked whether the president would be prepared to target fugitives again if they were on Pakistani soil, despite Islamabad's complaints the bin Laden raid was unauthorised and unilateral. "He made very clear during the campaign that that was his view. He was criticised for it," Carney said.
"He maintained that that was his view and, by the actions he has taken as president, feels that it was the right approach and continues to feel that way," he said.
What should be the reaction from our side to these statements? Everyone had anticipated these intentions from US and now we are watching them do whatever, whenever and where ever they want.
Could this be the beginning of a dark age where US will start attacks within Pakistan??? This is the question every Pakistani is asking. How could we tolerate such intrusion? Why have we become such a weak country that US does not even bothered to ask us or inform us about the attack?
Imran Khan is organizing sit ins in different cities demanding drone attacks to be stopped. I would suggest he should start planning on something more intense as the current situation is looking very glim and we have to raise voices to stop this.

Though Brown is often abuzz with students advocating for same-sex marriage, the campus often hears little from those who oppose it.
"You could go around campus and pretty much assume most people support it," said Dakotah Rice '16, a member of the Queer Alliance.
According to The Herald's recent undergraduate poll, only 4 percent of students oppose same-sex marriage.
"I have not had students come to talk to me about (the issue of same-sex marriage) really at all," said Kirstin Boswell-Ford, associate chaplain for the Protestant community, adding that there is more back-and-forth about it in her church than on campus.
According to the poll, 15 percent of Protestant students oppose same-sex marriage, the highest rate of disapproval of any religious group on campus.
Students often seem "not fully comfortable discussing issues of faith in the public arena here," which could play a role in the lack of dialogue about this issue, she said.
No students have approached Henry Bodah, associate chaplain for the Catholic community, about their views on same-sex marriage, he told The Herald. Most students seem uninterested in discussing the topic because they have already made up their minds one way or the other, he added.
Ryan Fleming '13 said he fears that people will think he opposes gay rights if he says he opposes same-sex marriage. As a result, Fleming said he generally avoids discussing the subject, saying, "it ends up being more of a pain in the ass."
"I hate it the most when people say, 'Well, you just hate gay people,'" Fleming said.
Marriage constitutes both a physical and spiritual joining of two peoples' lives, Fleming said. While two people of any sex can combine their spirits — by living together and loving one another — only a man and a woman can combine corporeally, joining themselves in the act of conceiving a child, he said. This fusing of two individuals' reproductive systems — which biologically cannot occur between two men or two women — makes marriage a uniquely heterosexual institution, he added.
"This is not a pressing issue in my view, so it's not something I talk about a lot," said a male senior who does not support same-sex marriage. The senior requested anonymity out of concern for the social repercussions of opposing same-sex marriage. "I feel the views on campus are so homogenous that I can't even remember the last time I discussed" my opinion, he added.
He believes marriage is "a contract" that states should have the power to define as they see appropriate, he said.
"I don't think it's illegal for a state to define it as between a man and a woman," he said, adding that he thinks civil unions with the same tax benefits seem like a fair solution.
Even among the religious leaders on campus, there has been little discussion about same-sex marriage, Bodah and Boswell-Ford said separately.
Individual Protestants have varying opinions on the issue of same-sex marriage depending on whether they look at it from a religious perspective or as a civil right, Boswell-Ford said. Boswell-Ford said she recognizes that as an African-American woman, she has only been able to attain her level of education and her career because of people's willingness to stand up for her civil rights in the past.
"It's with this humility that I can say that there is nothing in my faith tradition that tells me I should stand in the way of someone else's rights," she said.
The Catholic Church does not discriminate against gay individuals, Bodah said, but believes — based on logic and reason — that the definition of marriage since antiquity in many faith traditions has involved consummation and procreation. He does not wish to deny gay people civil rights but believes that allowing gay marriage would mean changing the meaning of the word "marriage" to reflect any romantic relationship, he said.
Convincing the younger generations to revert to a classical definition of marriage will be very difficult for the Catholic Church, he added. "I am rather pessimistic about the Church being able to undo several generations at least of reimagining marriage in terms of simply romance."
Though many students from both sides of the political spectrum said they think they are happy without much discussion of same-sex marriage on campus, a few said they would welcome the chance for a broader conversation.
"I think it's an injustice to the people who are here" that students' political opinions lack diversity, the anonymous male senior said. Nobody benefits intellectually from a situation where everyone agrees, he said.
Rice said he would be "more than interested in hearing an actual legal justification" of why same-sex marriage should not be legalized but has so far only heard religious or subjective views.
"If you're Catholic, a Mormon, all of a sudden you get lumped into this idea of southern, white racist," Fleming said. "That's not it."

- Social imbalance: in Nigeria, most women do not have the right to make certain decisions when it comes to child bearing and family decisions. Most men are take over the rights of a woman when it comes to all this.
- Political and financial constraints: women in Nigeria are nearly nonexistent on the Nigeria political scene. Due to the male dominion of decision making, many women have not had the reason to engage in the politics of the country. Same applies to the financial status between man and a woman man feels that a woman who is making money would over shadow him. Most man don't want the woman to participate in taking jobs and making money in the county. Within countries like Tunisia and Zimbabwe, women work over time and gain money more than their male counterpart.
- Education: In Nigeria,in the northern part, women are never allowed to go to school, they are only confined in the kitchen and only taught how to behave when they get married at very young age. Some parents sell their daughters for marriage early and neglects her educations while the boy is the only one who is allowed to go to school and learn different things.
Women empowerment is needed in Nigeria so as to educate women and teach them how to have a voice in the nation to be able to have equal rights. To be able to have responsibility and also take part in decision making in the nation.

With the fall and winter seasons coming, booking a beach trip seems like an ideal way to escape the cold weather. After all, who wouldn't want to enjoy pristine beaches and refreshing drinks? A colourful sunset or two wouldn't be so bad either.
The problem is, a lot of other people may be thinking the same thing. As tourists start flocking to their favourite beaches, you might end up with crowded spots and miss out on enjoying the scenery. If you want to find a quieter retreat, there are other alternatives in the Philippines. This country boasts more than 7,100 islands and plenty of tranquil shores for you to enjoy. Let's take a look at some of the best ones:
- El Nido, Palawan
This natural paradise is famous for its white sands, crystal-clear waters, and exotic marine life. The elements that make up this natural sanctuary include lagoons, cliffs, and waterfalls. These views are just some of the reasons why many travellers consider El Nido a gateway to adventure.
Island hopping and diving are some of the most recommended activities everyone can enjoy. You'll get to see colourful corals and fish that make these waters their home. There are also great choices for hotels in El Nido, such as the Pangulasian Island Resort.
This place is reachable via an international flight to Manila and a domestic one to the airport in Palawan. From there, you can take a bus or cab to your hotel.
- Sipalay Beach, Negros Occidental
An isolated coast, great diving spots, and offshore islands make up this beautiful paradise. Its shoreline is perfect for those who want to take a jog and just listen to the soothing waves. Renting a boat for island-hopping is also a good choice for those who want to enjoy a scenic trip. If you're looking for a place close to the sea, then staying at establishments like the Easy Diving and Beach Resort is your best option.
If you want to visit Sipalay, take a plane to Manila and a domestic flight to Bacolod City. From there, you can take a bus or cab to your reserved hotel.
- Agho Island, Iloilo
This small island is in the northeastern part of Iloilo and an ideal setting for campers. If you want to enjoy a starry sky and a breathtaking sunrise, then this is the place for you to visit. Once you've packed your supplies, you can get as close to nature as you can. Private caretakers also manage huts and cottages if tents aren't your thing. It's also an ideal place for snorkel diving.
To reach this secluded area, you need to book a plane to Manila and take a domestic flight to Iloilo City. You can then reserve a trip to the island from the nearby municipality of Concepcion.
The islands of the Philippines will always have something to offer to everyone. From beaches with luxurious amenities to places rich with untouched natural wonders. But the main selling points are the breathtaking scenery and untouched natural beauty. Book your next vacation here if a retreat from the hustle and bustle of the city is what you're looking for.

The Art of Racing in the Rain By Garth Stein
- Narrated by: Christopher Evan Welch
- Length: 6 hrs and 56 mins
- Release date: 05-13-08
The Art of Racing in the Rain AudioBook Summary
Enzo knows he is different from other dogs: a philosopher with a nearly human soul (and an obsession with opposable thumbs), he has educated himself by watching television extensively and by listening very closely to the words of his master, Denny Swift, an up-and-coming race car driver.
Through Denny, Enzo has gained tremendous insight into the human condition. He sees that life, like racing, isn't simply about going fast. Using the techniques needed on the race track, one can successfully navigate all of life's ordeals.
On the eve of his death, Enzo takes stock of his life, recalling all that he and his family have been through: the sacrifices Denny has made to succeed professionally; the unexpected loss of Eve, Denny's wife; the three-year battle over their daughter, Zoe, whose maternal grandparents pulled every string to gain custody. In the end, despite what he sees as his own limitations, Enzo comes through heroically to preserve the Swift family, holding in his heart the dream that Denny will become a racing champion with Zoe at his side.

(Pocket-lint) - Imagine an Alexa-powered robot that roams around your house, cleaning your rugs and washing the dishes. That's the dream, right?
Well, we're hoping Amazon and the other big tech giants are inventing this sort of tech, and while we wait, we're looking for clues to support that pipe dream. The latest evidence comes from Amazon's Rohit Prasad, a lead scientist and key member of the Alexa division, who recently admitted Amazon's assistant would be more useful with a robot body and cameras.
Prasad, talking at MIT Technology Review's EmTech Digital AI conference in San Francisco, said, "The only way to make smart assistants really smart is to give it eyes and let it explore the world". The thing is, some Alexa smart devices already have cameras, though they are lacking the ability to explore the world. So, it seems like Prasad is suggesting Alexa should get a body.
He wouldn't confirm that, but Technology Review ran with it, proclaiming Alexa needs a robot body to escape the confines of today's AI. Couple this with past reporting from Bloomberg, which claimed Amazon is reportedly developing a home robot, and we can't help but think about The Jetsons' Rosey robot, which could roam around a house and perform a variety of chores.
Bloomberg, which described Amazon's yet-to-be-announced effort as "top-secret", once claimed Amazon's secretive robot project has an internal codename, called Vesta (from the Roman goddess of the hearth). It's supposedly being developed by Lab126, Amazon's hardware R&D center.
Add it all up, and comments from Amazon's Prasad line up with these past rumours. And it's seriously got us excited about the future.

Bell Housings.
Our Gearboxes come standard with the GM Muncie pattern on the front mount, with bell houses to suit most popular race engines.
Whilst some say that "any old bell-house will work" or "I will buy one from my local guy – he's cheap and cheerful"; this is one of the most critical parts in the whole drivetrain setup. The front and rear facing plates must be 100% parallel, centres must be perfectly aligned, bolt-holes must be drilled in exactly the right position and at exactly the right angle. Many so called "gearbox problems" are actually the result of a poorly built, machined or drilled bell housings. Misalignment of just 10 microns can be sufficient to cause premature bearing failure or abnormal shaft or internal wear. It's simply not worth trying to "save a little" when there's a sizable gearbox investment at stake. All HGT Precision bell housings are built to handle race loadings, are aligned perfectly and have the drillings in exactly the right place to make installation simple. As is standard practise in the race industry, you should index the bell to your crank and block to ensure everything is perfectly aligned.
We have current setups for:
- BMW Inline 6, V8, V10
- Ford Coyote, Windsor
- Honda K24 in RWD setup
- Mazda Rotary Series 6
- Mitsubishi Evo 1,2,3,4 in RWD setup
- Nissan SR20, RB25, RB26, RB30, VQ35, VR38
- Toyota 1JZ, 2JZ, 1UZ, 3UZ, 3SGE
- We also offer most of these Bells in CNC Billet form. Clearly they cost substantially more, but for those wanting the best - then this is the gold standard.
As we're continually developing new setups, if yours isn't listed just ask, we can probably accomodate you.

An HLS model of an automotive RADAR signal processing algorithm has been developed for the purpose of comparison between the HLS model and the existing HDL model. Register Transfer Level (RTL) programming is a technology used to design and develop hardware at the register transfer level (or low level) using Hardware description languages such as Verilog and VHDL. FPGA development usually requires the knowledge of RTL technologies. HLS gives software (SW) developers the ability to design and implement their designs on an FPGA without requiring the knowledge of RTL technologies and HDL. Even though HLS is currently gaining popularity, the applications used to evaluate HLS tend to remain small. We synthesize an automotive RADAR signal processing system using HLS-based design methodology, which has mid to high complexity, and compare our synthesis results to that of the RTL-based design. We used many techniques used to make the high-level program model ready for synthesis while optimizing for both speed and resource usage using Xilinx Vivado HLS Computer-Aided Design (CAD) tool. We achieved a speed up of 2X compared to the RTL-based design while reducing the design time from approximately 16 weeks to 6 weeks. The FPGA resource utilization increased but it was still under 5% of the total resources available on the FPGA.

Thanks! I almost decided to respond with a rather curt You can always make any changes yourself but then i decided that your post is well thought out and deserves a better reply.We changed from SpamBlocker 2.1.1 to 4 and it works great!
So here goes:
Do you really want malware to be accepted if ClamAV has stopped? I don't. Post this in a separate thread in this subforum if you'd like to see a discussion on it. Frankly, I'd rather see a system for monitoring ClamAV and restarting it if necessary. DirectAdmin has such a system but it requires that ClamAV have it's own start/stop script.1. Some time ago we had a problem (2 times, different servers) that ClamAV stopped working. It wasn't running anymore and therefore every incoming mail was denied! This happened with 2.1.1 but I expect the same effect with the newest SpamBlocker. I searched for a solution and came across the parameter /defer_ok. This means (as far as I understood) that mail go through clamav, but if it can't handover the e-mail to clamav it will be skipped. This is from the Exim manual:
- You can append /defer_ok to the malware condition to accept messages even if there is a problem with the virus scanner. Otherwise, such a problem causes the ACL to defer.
Source: http://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch41.html
I don't think there's anything similar for using exim with SpamAssassin; perhaps something can be programmed, but I'm not going to take the time to look into that; feel free to do the homework and suggest a definitive solution.The /defer_ok can be used for spamassassin either. Possibly it needs another approach, but I'm not very familiar with that.
This is confusing to me as well, since demime is used further down in many examples on the page to which you've linked. Thankfully I don't need to worry about compile time options; I don't compile exim. I use the default exim installation provided by DirectAdmin. Feel free to contact DirectAdmin support for more information on how they use compile-time options.2. You're using the demime directive. I don't know about a different way, but I read: "There is another content-scanning configuration option for Local/Makefile, called WITH_OLD_DEMIME. If this is set, the old, deprecated demime ACL condition is compiled, in addition to all the other content-scanning features."
Probably I misunderstood, but it looked to me that demime is deprecated.
Source: http://www.exim.org/exim-html-current/doc/html/spec_html/ch41.html
Increased RBL lookups are generally not a major issue because RBL results are cached in your local resolving nameserver, and are generally only one packet in each direction. But there are other disadvantages, many discussed over the years on the exim mailing list. Some conditions can't be checked until after the recipient is accepted. If you think there are good reasons why we should be checking certain options at connect time rather than at reciept time, then please do some Googling to make sure there are advantages to your approach, that there are no disadvantages to your approach, and then open up a separate thread to discuss them.3. There are a lot of differences in approaches for rbl checking. You're checking in the recipient state (acl_check_recipient) of the SMTP transaction which happens very often, but I also read about checking this within the connect ACL (acl_connect). At the connect state there only is a connection from the sending SMTP server and it could be rejected very early in the process. Disadvantage should be alot more RBL lookups.
How recent are these approaches? The page to which you link is NOT dated. If you feel these ACLs are better than mine, then please contact the authors to see when they were created, and if the authors still believe this is the best way to do things. Maybe I should look at some of these, but I don't have the time to do exhaustive tests just based on hunches. I need definitive reasons to look into them.Maybe you can think of more advantages than disadvantages. See http://slett.net/spam-filtering-for-mx/exim-final.html#acl_connect_final for more details. There're also some HELO check which maybe interesting.
My recollection is that the official release of SpamBlocker 2.1.1 didn't have any clamav code in it at all.4. I don't understand why we wouldn't accept messages larger than 1000K to be scanned by clamav.
# Accept but put warning into headers if message over 1000k
warn message = X-Antivirus-Scanner: Skipped scanning; size over 1000K. You should use an Antivirus Scanner
condition = ${if >={$message_size}{1000k} {1}{0}}
In SpamBlocker 2.1.1 this limitation wasn't there and I never came across problems or had performance issues with it. The exim.conf accept messages of 20MB by default and we put the same into clamd.conf, so there shouldn't be a problem, right? Messages larger than 1000K have attachments that should be scanned in my opinion.
Setting ClamAV is your personal decision. My default is based on my experiences. It works for us. If it's not working for others then either they have made changes themselves, or they've made posts on these forums which I haven't seen. For now I'm going to leave this setting the way it is in my distribution file. If you feel this is an important issue begin a separate thread and see if others find it as important as you do.
Bottom line is by whitelisting all we keep these from being blocked by other blocklists, and then we can let SpamAssassin handle the fine points.5. Why are you using the whitelisting approach with dnswl.org? This list is used by SpamAssassin for scoring messages:
score RCVD_IN_DNSWL_LOW 0 -1 0 -1
score RCVD_IN_DNSWL_MED 0 -4 0 -4
score RCVD_IN_DNSWL_HI 0 -8 0 -8
Besides that I think that allowing all whitelisted IP's/servers will lead to much more spam. When used I think that only high, or medium and high, trust servers should be accepted. See:
The following config snippit scans an email for spam unless the sending ip is a medium or high trust level in dnswl.org:
! dnslists = list.dnswl.org&0.0.0.2
spam = nobody:true
Trust Level Description
High Never sends spam.
Medium Extremely rare spam occurrences, corrected promptly.
Low Occasional spam occurrences, actively corrected but less promptly.
This is the default for most categories.
None Legitimate mail server, may also send spam.
This is the default for some categories (eg Email Marketing Provider).
I don't know how to use this exactly by now, but such approach looks better to me than also allowing Low trust servers and the None trustlevel.
Source: http://dnswl.org/tech#exim
You're welcome to create a more granular ACL entry if you'd like, and write later and let us know if it works better than my approach.
I don't like to delay servers; I think it's unfair to the good senders out there. Instead I use nolisting which is easy to implement, works well, and blocks those spammers that don't wait for errors, while not impacting good neighbor servers.6. SMTP transaction delay. Connecting SMTP servers are delayed at several states within the transaction. This starts at the acl_connect:
accept delay = 5s
hosts = *
With this setting it takes 5 seconds before the server is sending it's greeting.
The idea is that spam sending servers are configured for high delivery rates and slowing them down would send them away. Maybe the first 5 seconds wouldn't be enough, but the delay can be added at every deny statement for example. With every HELO check that gives a deny you could delay the session 2 more seconds or something like that.
See: http://tldp.org/HOWTO/Spam-Filtering-for-MX/smtpdelays.html
and http://www.deer-run.com/~hal/sysadmin/greet_pause.html
The concept is primitive but effective as far as I understand everything I've read. Don't delay to much, because that could deny legitimate e-mail.
Anyway, those are my opinions. Responses to this thread may very well get lost by me; I highly recommend creating separate threads for each issue you'd like to continue to discuss.
Always remember that I write the SpamBlocker-powered exim.conf file as a labor of love; you're welcome to create your own, trying out your ideas. Perhaps the best ideas will come from a merger of your ideas and mine.

Another Black Friday season is here and we all have the urge to shop almost everything.
So, when Black Friday is over, should we get broke?
Great deals are everywhere already, I can see that!
I can see 50% discounts or more on almost every product I have been coming across since the beginning of this season.
In this guide, we want to look at how we can make more deals on the stuff we like with this Black Friday shopping guide.
No one likes to be broke, but yet frugality is the hardest thing to do…
How does it sound to spend all your savings on things that add no much value to your life and the next day begin to look for someone to borrow you money?
When you have the urge to spend your money, it would be hard to hold back and do nothing.
Isn't it?
Most people with this spending habit see no reasons to learn how to spend less and save more, believing that money would keep coming.
RECOMMENDED: Best Steps to Choose a Bank
Even if they never get broke, how can they grow their wealth?
I'm not here to condemn your spending habits but to show you how you can grow your wealth.
The best strategy to spend less is to know how to reduce your spending habits.
No wonder, most billionaires like Warren Buffet, Richard Branson, Jim Walton and the rest make a lot of emphasis on their frugal habits as the key to their success in life.
According to Sergei Klebnikov in Billionaire Spending Habits, Bill Gate wears $10 wristwatch and washes plates by himself.
"Gates remains old-fashioned in that he still likes to wash the dishes at home every night for his family. Dishwashers use electricity, after all!" Said, Sergei.
The intention of many people who live beyond their means is to show off. But unfortunately, they gain nothing from it.[Tweet "I'm going to show you the big difference between the rich and the poor, which you've never heard before – why the rich won't get poor and the poor won't get rich?"]
And yet the rich would come outside to tell us they don't spend on things that will make their account balance reduce but increase.
You can't eat your cake and still have it.
If you can't do without big stuff, this post will show you five good ways to learn how to spend less and save more while taking advantage of this Black Friday season.
See brands made by rich people to steal billions from us.
This can serve as a strategy to help you grow your fortunes in the coming days.
Five practical ways to learn how to spend less and save more
There're many ways to reduce your spending habits and start living a simple life. In this guide, I would provide you with the best five strategies to help you cool down your urge before committing your hard-earned money into something.
Limit your access to funds
When you limit your access to your funds, you spend less. This doesn't mean you shouldn't pay your rent or put foods on the table for your family but to curb you if shopping is your hobby.
In my childhood, my dad would say I was extravagant. And to impose "save more spend less" strategy on me, he seized my passbook and restricted me from having access to my bank account many times.
I wasn't happy with his approach until the day he told me he was only helping me.
How was he helping me?
That wasn't bad though.
But until now, I won't stop asking,
Do billionaires really spend less, if they do, why do we call them billionaires, is it not because they spend in billions?
So, I think there is something billionaires are not telling us about how they grow their fortunes.
Out of my curiosity, I came across the boots theory by Captain Samuel Vimes, which broke the top secrets of billionaires to me.
Apply the boots theory
The boots theory is a theory of unfair spending, which suggests that buying quality over quantity can help reduce spending habits. As a save more spend less strategy, the theory reveals the ways and manners we hurt ourselves while trying to economize.
Assuming you and your friend go for shopping and each of you buy a pair of boot. If you go for a cheap boot at $20 and your friend goes for the quality boot at $50, you will be the one hurting yourself.
Since $20 boot is inferior to $50, you might have to replace your cheap boot every four month and at the end of the year spend $60 in total. Hence, buying cheap products can make you spend above your budget at the long run.
In order to spend less and save more, boots theory, holds that when you buy quality, your spending habits will reduce. And only then, you can save more.
Buy things you need
Often times that we buy things, we end up spending a lot of our money on things that add no value to our lives and that results to being extravagant. Things you need can negatively affect your well-being if you don't get them, but things you want don't.
So, you need to set your priority right.
Prioritizing your needs can help you focus on your needs rather than your wants and reduce your spending habits.
Sometimes, spending on your needs can cost you more than your wants at a time. But because your needs are met based on priority, you won't be spending unnecessarily. And at the long run, your annual expenses won't tear your budget.
Don't be a brand loyalist
Having a soft spot for a particular brand is dangerous. It can make you spend unnecessarily beyond your means. Meanwhile, most popular brands only improve on names not value.
You could be fooling yourself showing interest in such a brand just to flaunt. There're other brands in the market which are better. But because they're not popular, nobody wants to buy them.
Pay attention to sales promotions
When sales go down, most companies offer sales promotion to motivate consumers. Showing interest in this can also help you save more and spend less. It usually happens during festive periods.
And to know when it happens in your area, you have to pay attention to news and advertisements both online and offline.
There're different types of sales promotion that can benefit you.
And these include:
Discounts – This is the most common sales promotion. You can get a lot of this online. Next time you want to shop, ensure the store you're patronizing has something good for you.
Gifting – This is offered during festive period like Christmas and New Year when people desire to exchange gifts with family and friends. Companies also apply this tactics to strengthen customer relations.
Coupons – This is used when companies realize that their prices are too higher than normal. Instead of bringing down the prices, they offer sales coupons to their potential customers. Thus coupon is a form of incentivize customers.
Recurring Promos – This include promotions that recur regularly. They're such that customers are already looking out for as the period is fast approaching. They include Cyber Monday, Black Friday and Back to School Sales and so on.
Other sales promotional services to help you minimize your spending habits include buy one and get one free, cash back and rebates, exhibitions, trade fair, exchange offer and free trial and so on.
There's nothing happening in your life that has no effects on your finances. If your lifestyle makes you spend above your means, you will definitely have problems with your finances. Against this, I wrote this Black Friday shopping guide to teach you how to spend less and save more during the season.
Black Friday sales are great deals. But if care isn't taken you might end up begging your friends when Black Friday is over in order to survive before your next salary.
I have explained five good "save more spend less" strategies that can help you reduce your spending habits, live a normal life and grow your wealth tremendously.
If you can find a way to implement these strategies, no matter how small your income is, what makes sense most is to see it grow.
Based on these strategies, the rich save and invest their money in businesses while the poor spend theirs on luxury and live on loans.
Consequently, the rich become richer and the poor become poorer.
