[geeks] D'oh!

The lazy admin's guide to fucking over a mail server:

  Step 1: Subscribe to half a dozen or so of the lists at Sunhelp.
  Step 2: Invite your SO (who is subscribed to serveral high-traffic
          lists) and several of your friends to use your server as their
          primary mail server.
  Step 3: Upgrade postfix using GCC on IRIX, and then go to bed.
  Step 4: Wake up to no mail and lots of rejected connections from
          255.255.255.255 in /var/adm/SYSLOG.
  Step 5: Upgrade postfix using MIPSpro on IRIX to fix the inet_ntoa()
          problem.
  Step 6: ssh into your secondary MX and type "sudo postfix flush".
  Step 7: Realize, as the system load average hits 10.00 and above, that
          you probably should've either turned off spamassassin, or used
          spamd.
  Step 8: Go to lunch.  Make sure to follow up with tasty flammable
          liquids.

  not pay somebody to hack your c instead of taking the jellyjar in your ass?"
