This is just a notice that 1 old messages were moved from your
inbox to your ‘.old-messages/’ folder.

Please see http://wiki.dreamhost.com/index.php/Special:Search?search=access+mail+folders+server+inbox&fulltext=Search
for how to read mail in folders other than your inbox.

This includes:
- 1 messages that were more than 45 days old

You can configure how messages are rotated out of your inbox from your
mailboxes management area, at http://mailboxes.YOURDOMAIN.COM/ (replace
YOURDOMAIN.COM with your actual email address domain!)

If you utilize POP, and you’re receiving this message, you are likely
leaving your messages on the server. To help reduce the performance
impact this has on your server (and to stop receiving these pesky
notifications!) please read through the following articles on configuring
your email client:

Should I leave messages on the server?

(the reasons why you should configure you POP client intelligently)

Improving Mail Performance for Everyone!

(basically, how to configure your POP client intelligently)

Your email folders can also be accessed via IMAP (or IMAP with SSL encryption,
the recommended approach) using the same username and password used to POP
your mail. If you have a shell user on your hosting account, pine is also
pre-configured to access your mail via IMAP.

Happy DreamHost Mail Team!

i was reading The Universe of Discourse and virtue of its existence, it brought up a point i found interesting. Well-writen and insightful post aside, it brought to light a good example of what i like to read in posts.

Not simply linking to other posts or copying, but including the discourse that one would have in the comments on your own posts tends to make a good read for me. While it’s possibly true that this is due to the dirth of this type of post, i’d still love to see more posts like this.

My favourite portion is the question and response to “Why is the sky blue?” Similar to the “Airborne” disclosure, it was good to reveal his supposed b/sing on physics, and then to link and post to various discussions that had more info. How it’s different than Airborne, is by showing a weakness, and using for more than just the trickster’s distraction.

Update 1:: following the links and reading up more, two things happened.  Plover posted some awesomeness there, http://blog.plover.com/physics/potassium.html, as he breaks down the radioactive decay energy generated from the K contained in a bag of rock salt over an hour.  Mostly, he hands over a nice platter of awesome and insightful post.

The trickster’s distraction rears it’s ugly head once more, but going the other way this time : )
