I use Gmail while I have my own POP3 account. It's just a matter of having too much e-mail addresses I guess.

I've had my Yahoo! account for about 8 years.  It's nice to have a permanent address.  Office emails come and go.  ISP emails come and go.  But Yahoo! is here to stay.  These days, it mostly serves as a spam collector, since I have email addresses from my webhost and job.  But it will never truly go away.

Gmail owns yahoo mail any day ... in fact I use my gmail account for online storage as well as mail ... because it takes forever to upload attachments in yahoo, and the yahoo briefcase upload times are horrible, Gmail uploads things 10x faster than yahoo mail and briefcase combined.

Either extremely stupid or extremely irritated individuals.  The line dividing the two is oftentimes near-nonexistant.  On the other hand, you should see some of the replies I formulate.  ;)

Well there's always been:
irc://dognoodle99.cjb.net:6667 #mes

Which is run by me.  Thing is, it hasn't been used much in the past few months.  It's still running, though.

WMD: How would I connect to that in xchat? It tells me:

Quote from: xchat

* Looking up irc:/
* Unknown host. Maybe you misspelled it?

Title: Re: Worst spam ever
Post by: WMD on 19 November 2005, 19:48

Don't put the irc:/

Just the hostname itself.   And note that I restarted everything after a power outage today, so...hopefully it's working.
