[9:58 AM EDT - Back in the groove.]

Hey, I got the car back, and everything's back to normal. The weather's nice, but it might get wet later today so I thought against biking again (that and the fact that I was running a little late). With the journal fallout from the past few days, my list of pages to check has diminished somewhat. However, there's always Laz and KGL (and NVM) to keep my diary (not dairy - although I do like ice cream) addiction going..

[12:24 PM EDT - Nature's work.]

I got a PDF file from CJF yesterday showing that she was in on of the recent issues of Nature! Cool.

Another thing is that LC's roaming around the office now. I didn't notice until she shouted my name. *hears name* *looks around confusedly*

[2:43 PM EDT - Disk full.]

Erk. I just checked my hotmail account and found out that I had exceeded my quota on the service. Apparently I was given warnings since the 10th, but since I haven't checked my account in a month..

I ended up losing quite a bit of old mail there, which is too bad. I kept it there just incase I need to keep a record of some corrospondence. I guess it's all gone now. It shouldn't really matter though, it wasn't all too important. Curse this two megabyte limit! *shakes fist*

I have since emptied out the inbox. One file made all the difference (and it was basically all that was left in there before I cleared it out.) Dang.

Microsoft Outlook [Express] can automatically check and download your hotmail email. That's what I do.. much easier to archive stuff that way.

And when you get magical bits of VBS, it even mails porn spam to all your friends! It's great!

LOL. Ah yes, I use Outlook at work because there's nothing else here to use, but apart from that, I avoid that program like the plague. Jax also told me about the ability to consolidate your e-mail via Hotmail, but the problem I was having was not because people were sending me too many things to Hotmail. I found out that you can use Hotmail to suck up e-mail from POP accounts, so I decided to send my work e-mail there (because I didn't have access to my work e-mail at a client's site) except that my work e-mail tended to have large attachments. One of these attachments happened to be 1,970 kB in size..

And that's why I lost all of my Hotmail mail.

Note that having all of your work email sent to a Hotmail account is a very bad idea - if there's anything that in any way involves an NDR or confidential material, you're relying on Hotmail security for it to be protected. Not a good idea at all - if you worked here, I'd kill you.

Well, not literally.

Lawyers could have a field day with that though. Hmmm.. You need a security policy! I charge very reasonable rates.

Jax also told you how she uses Outlook Express to consolidate all her e-mail. Hotmail quotas are evil. And watch that Bulk Mail folder too -- I've discarded many a friendly e-mail without checking just because I was cc.-ed instead of directly mailed.

Oops, did I say Hotmail? I meant Outlook. *blush* There I go again, thinking one thing and typing another. *shakes head*
