[00:10:44] <higuita> ****  Beginning of log  2004 Nov 07 17:24:31  ****
[00:10:54] <higuita> sysmonk: weak!! ;)
[00:11:35] <sysmonk> higuita: that's when i've 'moved my ass' to freenode
[00:11:40] <sysmonk> (the 2006)
[00:11:51] <sysmonk> didn't use freenode before that
[00:12:11] <rob0> You have a donkey here?
[00:14:12] 
[00:14:50] <seekwill> yeeehawww
[00:15:09] <DarienWork> speaking of logging, does anyone have a specific CustomLog format that they like?
[00:15:23] <DarienWork> I'm making one tab-delimited, but I dunno if anyone else has done a nice one yet
[00:16:03] *** madrescher has joined #postfix
[00:17:04] *** VaNNi has joined #postfix
[00:18:35] <higuita> i use postfix along before that, but only at that time i restarted to use IRC (and other IMs)
[00:18:37] <higuita> 2004 Nov 14 18:42:37  --> rob0 (~robzero at pcp04527896pcs dot flrnc01.al.comcast.net) has joined #postfix
[00:18:39] <higuita> hehehehe
[00:21:35] <rob0> wow
[00:22:40] <higuita> sysmonk: 1.2G ?! tip: bzip2 * that, no need to store uncompressed logs that old :)
[00:22:51] *** skor has quit IRC
[00:23:16] <rob0> I'm not familiar with "CustomLog format" in the context of Postfix.
[00:23:26] <sysmonk> higuita: thought about bzipping before
[00:23:32] <sysmonk> higuita: but i like my grep's going fast :)
[00:23:44] <sysmonk> higuita: and i do have some space left here
[00:24:05] <rob0> sounds apache or asterisky
[00:24:48] <sysmonk> or proftpdish
[00:25:41] <higuita>  bzgrep  sysmonk ~/.weechat/logs/*.bz2
[00:25:54] <higuita> you can also search bzip2ed
[00:26:59] <rob0> oooooh I think he was talking about IRC logs, right DarienWork?
[00:27:07] <DarienWork> I was talking about apache logs
[00:27:12] <rob0> ah
[00:27:18] <DarienWork> in the wrong channel
[00:27:22] <DarienWork> apologies :D
[00:27:22] <rob0> :)
[00:30:43] <sysmonk> higuita: i said FAST search
[00:30:56] <sysmonk> i know that i can zgrep / bzgrep
[00:31:51] <higuita> hey, its fast on my system :)
[00:32:19] <higuita> i also search then about 2 time/year, so a few seconds doesnt matter
[00:32:25] <sysmonk> maybe it'll be fast on this system too, but i'm not used to fast [bz]grep's
[00:32:38] <DarienWork> if you're not using regular expressions, make sure to tell grep that
[00:32:39] <higuita> but if you want faster search, use gzip instead of bzip2 :)
[00:32:42] <DarienWork> it'll be a hell of a lot faster
[00:33:01] <DarienWork> if you want smaller files, use lzma ;)
[00:33:27] <sysmonk> higuita: thank you for all this useful information, i wouldn't know it even if i'm runing centralized log servers
[00:33:32] <sysmonk> ;)
[00:33:38] <higuita> yep, i use fgrep on the postfix logs all the time... using grep takes the double of the time

[02:47:19] <echelon> inbound
[02:47:40] <echelon> and they kept saying they don't do any port blocking on business lines
[02:48:00] <echelon> then i find out my home isp blocks port 25 outbound
[02:48:08] <Motoko-chan> They don't do much on home ones either in my area.
[02:48:16] <Motoko-chan> Nice.
[02:48:22] <Motoko-chan> Most home ISPs do that.
[02:48:33] <echelon> then i pretended they fixed the problem lol

[04:18:54] <lunaphyte> i've never seen postmap generate files like that.
[04:19:11] <lunaphyte> what does postconf -m say?
[04:19:20] <lunaphyte> what os is this?  what version of postfix?
[04:19:30] <lunaphyte> something seems borked.

[09:22:47] <kexman> or add some layers of protection
[09:23:31] <f3ew> kexman, get a host in IP space with a good reputation, keep working at it

[10:21:31] <adnc> sysmonk: i've news from microsoft
[10:21:33] <weedar> Roobarb: of course, but that isn't really something I think our customers will accept :-)
[10:21:47] <sysmonk> they modified their PRNG?
[10:22:11] <weedar> In a perfect world we'd all follow RFCs and spam would not exist, but alas that is not the case
[10:22:27] <adnc> they didnt tell me what they really did, but they said that they put there configuration into a temporary mitigation
[10:22:30] <Roobarb> weedar: can you paste logs showinf postfix rejecting one of these addresses?
[10:22:31] <adnc> which did solve the problem
[10:23:03] <sysmonk> so, they did improve their PRNG
[10:23:03] <sysmonk> ;P
[10:23:04] <adnc> whatever mitigation means, they say that it will take 24-48 hours in which there server will learn
[10:23:14] <adnc> sysmonk what do you mean with prng?

[10:26:53] <sysmonk> weedar: '' isn't allowed in emails
[10:27:53] <weedar> sysmonk: I know, but in this case the user sent an email to several recipients and he seems to have been able to send emails to other recipients without the ''-characters so I'm thinking there must be something in his email-client causing some of the addresses to be enclosed in ''
[10:28:08] <Roobarb> fix his email client then

[10:31:57] <weedar> sysmonk: I belive the correct way would be to only accept apostrophes when they occur as the first and last character in the email-address
[10:32:21] <sysmonk> weedar: emails should be 'quoted' in <>
[10:32:24] <sysmonk> i.e. <weedar at blah dot com>
[10:32:28] <sysmonk> not 'weedar at blah dot com'
[10:32:35] <f3ew> weedar, you have to quote the ''

[10:32:59] <weedar> Exactly
[10:33:57] <weedar> But I see your point guys, I'll just let the customer know his addressbook is buggy
[10:34:01] <Roobarb> so fix whatever rubbish the user has in their address book
[10:34:03] <weedar> Thanks for all of your input :-)
[10:34:14] <sysmonk> hey, i just wrote my own MTA/MUA which quotes the emails with ~~~~f3ew~~~~~ ( i.e. ~~~~f3ew~~~~~sysmonk at domain dot com~~~~f3ew~~~~~ )
[10:34:21] <sysmonk> why postfix doesn't accept that?!

[11:43:36] *** UltraCool has quit IRC
[11:43:44] <dash--> do u know what it is?

[11:44:33] <sysmonk> mx'es pointing to a wrong server
[11:44:42] <sysmonk> whereas postfix configured to accept them, so postfix doesn't do mx resolving
[11:44:51] <sysmonk> atleast that's my first impression

[13:33:29] <CrummyGummy> Hello, I have a filter written in python that I am adding to postfix smtpd. This worked well till last night. Now the subject line that postfix passes my filter is something like

[13:33:41] <CrummyGummy> Any ideas how to fix this?
[13:34:13] <CrummyGummy> =?WINDOWS-1252? chages depending what encoding the client is using to send.
[13:39:51] <vice-versa> fix?
[13:40:36] <kexman> sysmonk: well i think that is gone
[13:40:41] <kexman> but i still see no mail

[13:52:04] <Katana_Steel> did you make the pem files and copy them to /etc/postfix?
[13:52:58] <kexman> Katana_Steel: i copyed other files not pem files. made my own certificates. which are working very well with apache
[13:53:13] <kexman> i copyed the postfix.crt and postfix.key and the ca.crt
[13:53:25] <Katana_Steel> k
[13:53:33] <kexman> its not a cert problem imho
[13:53:48] <kexman> its an auth problem somehow ....
[13:55:02] <kexman> somehow the database im using its not connected well or something
[13:55:16] <kexman> sysmonk: could you take a look at this : http://rafb.net/p/qsonJh96.html ?
[13:55:44] <vice-versa> you're back to what I said previously, decode your auth string and confirm the credentials and don't pastebin your auth credentials for the entire world to see
[13:56:02] <lunaphyte_> or use a test account that can be discarded.
[13:56:43] <kexman> aaaa
[13:56:49] <kexman> how to decode them ?
[13:56:57] <kexman> vice-versa: that can be changed right ?
[13:57:00] <kexman> its not a live setup
[13:57:15] <kexman> vice-versa: i didnt understand the first time neither ... how do i decode the auth string ?
[13:57:32] <vice-versa> they are base64 encoded
[13:57:51] <lunaphyte_> use uudecode or perl or such
[13:58:04] <kexman> did it
[13:58:41] <kexman> vice-versa: how do i change my auth strings ?
[13:58:59] <lunaphyte_> !sasl
[13:59:00] <knoba> lunaphyte_: "sasl" : SASL is 'Simple Authentication and Security Layer', necessary for SMTP AUTH, and provided to Postfix by addin software. Cyrus SASL and/or Dovecot IMAP/POP3 can provide SASL. See http://www.postfix.org/SASL_README.html for details.

[13:59:59] <kexman> definitly going to eat now :P

[16:04:58] <seekwill> Thanks
[16:05:18] <sysmonk> just make me a list of dates when the best games will be so i don't shut down the box
[16:05:21] <sysmonk> (that was my home pc)
[16:05:41] <sysmonk> i usually have it runing all the time
[16:06:16] <Dominian> eh
[16:06:19] <Dominian> best games?
[16:06:19] <Dominian> wtf
[16:06:24] <Dominian> you streaming IPTV now? hehe
[16:06:31] <seekwill> sysmonk: Every Sunday :)
[16:06:59] <seekwill> And Monday night
[16:08:01] <seekwill> Dominian: nfl.com/gamepass only works outside the US. So sysmonk was very nice and runs an http proxy off his box for me  :D
[16:10:06] <Dominian> hehe

[16:10:16] <Dominian> seekwill: Where are you from that you like the NFL?
[16:10:23] <Dominian> I just turn on Dish Network and I'm good to go ;)
[16:10:41] <Dominian> hell if I knew you needed that..
[16:10:46] <Dominian> I could've done that for you off my VPS ;0
[16:10:48] <seekwill> I'm in Seattle, but I don't have cable. I don't really watch TV
[16:10:55] <Dominian> ahhhhh
[16:11:13] <seekwill> So need an out-of-country IP

[16:16:40] <sysmonk> + or - ?
[16:16:52] <seekwill> You're 10 hours ahead
[16:17:24] <Dominian> wait.. I"m confused.
[16:17:30] <seekwill> Sounds perfect.
[16:17:33] <Dominian> seekwill: Why did you need an out of country IP to access a site in the states?
[16:17:59] <sysmonk> Dominian: they block US ip's
[16:18:08] <seekwill> Dominian: gamepass is only available outside the US. I think because the NFL gave exclusive broadcast rights to cable networks
[16:18:08] <Dominian> nfl.com/gamepass blocks US IPs?
[16:18:11] <seekwill> Yes
[16:18:15] <Dominian> ahhh
[16:18:18] <Dominian> that's.. fucked up
[16:18:22] <seekwill> :)

[16:18:42] <Dominian> then again I have an out-of-states server hehe
[16:18:57] <kexman> hehh im dealing with the strangest problem

[17:47:17] <kexman> seekwill: how about i want to learn ? :)
[17:47:23] * kexman goes to read up on stuff
[17:47:29] <seekwill> Mail is a bit complicated these days
[17:47:50] <kexman> seekwill: never mind :) ill somehow decomplecate it :)
[17:47:59] <seekwill> No, it's not something you can do
[17:48:18] <kexman> well then ill get my head geared to this complicated mail system :)
[17:48:22] <Sysctl___> hey folks. i have a client who accidentally sent a bunch of emails to the wrong domain that has no mx configuration, so they are simply deferring saying that their server dropped the initial smtp greeting etc... not a big deal, but how does one tell postfix to redirect emails in its queue to go to another email address?
[17:48:29] <seekwill> The complicated parts is the connection and reputation with ISPs, not setting up the software part of it
[17:48:53] <Sysctl___> ie, instead of going to john at email dot net, instead to john at email dot com ?
[17:49:10] <Sysctl___> is there a postsuper type command for that?
[17:50:33] <seekwill> kexman: For example, if you're running this mailserver from home, your messages might end up blocked or in the spam box of yahoo/gmail/aol/hotmail/etc just because you're on a home system.

[17:54:56] <kexman> so seekwill if i understood it well then i dont need to use ssl for a secure email connection. i can use simply tls which is as good or better. over the port 110 (pop3) for secure pop3 ?

[17:57:44] <kexman> rob0: by using TLS with pop3 i get secure emailing ?
[17:57:53] <rob0> Yes AND no.
[17:58:00] <vice-versa> hehe
[17:58:05] <kexman> that means no one can read my mail and that mail passes from server to me (client) encrypted in a tls session

[17:58:17] <kexman> yes what and no what ? :)
[17:58:52] <kexman> so anyone sniffing on the network only gets encrypted information nothing in cleartext

[18:01:07] <kexman> rob0: one more question is pop3 with tls like http with ssl ?
[18:01:45] <rob0> kind of, except TLS starts out as plaintext
[18:01:47] <rob0> !tls
[18:01:48] <knoba> rob0: "tls" : short for "Transport Layer Security" (RFC2246). It adds an additional layer of encryption to protocols like SMTP, POP3 or IMAP to improve security during transmission over the internet. You can find HOWTOs on that topic on http://www.postfix.org/docs.html

[18:04:33] *** tomocha6 has joined #postfix
[18:04:38] <kexman> rob0: so what is transmitted in plaintext that can hurt me ?
[18:05:04] <kexman> Transport Layer Security (TLS) and its predecessor, Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), are cryptographic protocols that provide secure communications on the Internet for such things as web browsing, e-mail, Internet faxing, instant messaging and other data transfers. There are slight differences between SSL and TLS, but they are essentially the same.
[18:05:09] <kexman> that is from the wiki
[18:05:32] <kexman> so if ssl is a predecessor for tls i dont see why it wouldnt be secure as ssl ?
[18:05:47] <kexman> if it is very secure why wont anyone tell me that ? :)
[18:05:56] * rob0 sighs
[18:06:02] <kexman> :(
[18:06:05] <kexman> whaat ?
[18:06:18] <rob0> because there is NO simple answer to "is it secure?"
[18:06:30] <kexman> rob0: is ssl secure ? :) what's the answer to that ? :)
[18:06:41] <kexman> is ssh secure ? :)
[18:06:48] *** pitakill has joined #postfix
[18:07:34] <rob0> SSH is one of the most commonly exploited services on Unix-like OS's.
[18:08:25] <kexman> this is why i dont give it away for everyone :)
[18:08:37] <vice-versa> is it encrypted...yes, is it secure..depends on your definition of secure, but it certainly beats plain text
[18:08:39] <kexman> added layers of security provide great access to ssh :)
[18:08:45] <kexman> vice-versa: :) hehe
[18:08:53] <kexman> vice-versa: well if its encrypted isnt secure enough ?
[18:09:02] <kexman> vice-versa: what are the downsides of tls versus ssl ?
[18:09:27] <rob0> If you think encryption means security, you don't understand either, and at that, I am out.
[18:09:51] <kexman> rob0: no i just think that without proper encryption there is NO security
[18:10:01] <kexman> and encryption is the first step towards security
[18:10:06] <kexman> better encryption better security i think
[18:10:16] <kexman> but security is not just about encryption
[18:10:18] <kexman> that is what i think
[18:12:10] <kexman> hmm i think i understood something
[18:12:13] <kexman> by asking something :)
[18:12:45] <kexman> with ssl anyone using the service is authenticated inside an ssl connection. with tls you have to option to use or not to use tls ?
[18:12:50] <kexman> you cant force it onto the user ?
[18:13:06] <kexman> i want to force to user to use encryption at authentication / working with the service
[18:14:00] <lennard> well, you can say no when they try to do stuff unencrypted :)

[18:16:51] <kexman> a solution i can think of is that im already in an encrypted enviroment when he has the option to send it
[18:17:07] <lennard> well, you don't offer auth before theydid tls
[18:17:16] <kexman> lennard: and where do i configure that ?
[18:17:18] <lennard> I think thats what the postfix configvar is called to

[19:21:56] <TheAvatar_> Hello - how would I convert .eml files to something I can inject into postfix (moving mail from one solution to the other)
[19:22:35] *** cilly has quit IRC
[19:23:05] <devdas> just copy them to an imap folder using Outlook Express or Thunderbird
[19:23:11] *** cilly has joined #postfix
[19:23:34] <xpoint_dell> hint imapsync
[19:23:50] <TheAvatar_> that's what I had in mind, but I figured there might be another (smarter solution)
[19:23:57] <chiwawa_42> arent .eml files basically rfc822 like mails ?
[19:24:29] <TheAvatar_> I still need them properly injected into postfix so it knows about them - I mean things like properly filenaming etc
[19:25:01] <chiwawa_42> or maybe install Thunderbird
[19:25:17] <chiwawa_42> its maildirs can be feeded to almost anything
[19:25:31] <devdas> TheAvatar_: wrong problem
[19:25:36] <chiwawa_42> and it will ipport all content from OE
[19:25:44] <devdas> maildir doesn't care about file names
[19:26:36] <TheAvatar_> okay - but dragging from one account to imap account (new server) would get them properly into the new server - keeping all settings (read/unread, headers etc) - somewhat what imapsync does as far as I can read
[19:26:45] <TheAvatar_> the thing is, I dont have any of the old data
[19:27:06] <devdas> right
[19:27:28] <TheAvatar_> meaning an easy clientside solution would be nice (e.g. the drag'n'drop could work)

[22:02:47] <_fury> a quick question, I just reconfigured postfix to use virtual domains. everything is working great, I found directions somewhere.  Only thing is, before I had my server set up to allow relaying mail if a login/password was provided, and now that isn't working.  where is that stuff set up so I can modify it?
[22:05:21] *** cilly has quit IRC
[22:06:42] <Dominian> master.cf and main.cf
[22:07:02] <_fury> obviously
[22:07:57] <Dominian> Well, if its obvious.. why ask?
[22:08:16] <_fury> the question I was asking really wasn't "what config file is it in" as much as it was "where in the config file"
[22:08:38] <_fury> because there are a bunch of things that say they have to do with relaying
[22:08:47] <Dominian> !relay
[22:08:48] <knoba> Dominian: Error: "relay" is not a valid command.
[22:08:51] <Dominian> damn it

[22:09:02] <Dominian> fscker
[22:09:22] <_fury> in case it's relevant, I'm using dovecot for authentication
[22:09:35] <_fury> with mysql
[22:10:08] <Dominian> !sasl
[22:10:09] <knoba> Dominian: "sasl" : SASL is 'Simple Authentication and Security Layer', necessary for SMTP AUTH, and provided to Postfix by addin software. Cyrus SASL and/or Dovecot IMAP/POP3 can provide SASL. See http://www.postfix.org/SASL_README.html for details.
[22:10:38] <_fury> that's what it is called
[22:10:51] <_fury> ok so I have permit_sasl_authenticated and such in smtpd_recipient_restrictions
[22:10:58] <_fury> and smtpd_sasl_type = dovecot
[22:11:30] <_fury> it all seems right :(
[22:11:39] <Dominian> what are the log entries?

[22:14:42] <_fury> from=<username at domain dot tld> does that mean they are authenticated?
[22:14:50] <_fury> dovecot's logs don't say anything about a failed auth
[22:16:47] <Dominian> hrm
[22:16:50] <Dominian> is this through port 25?
[22:17:20] <sysmonk> i like the 'etc' part
[22:17:20] <sysmonk> ;)
[22:17:25] <Dominian> normally sasl is configured for port 587 whichi s submission..
[22:17:43] <_fury> no actually it's 465 I think
[22:17:46] <_fury> smtpds
[22:18:05] <sysmonk> 465 is allrighty too
[22:18:39] <sysmonk> _fury: specify the full logs
[22:18:55] <sysmonk> postfix does tell you (in teh logs) if somebody tried to auth
[22:19:44] * Dominian nods
[22:19:46] <Dominian> 465 will work

[22:22:33] <tvirus> I'm running postfix (sendmail.postfix). I am wondering if there's a way to modify a message in the queue before its sent (change the to: address). I need to have emails sent to people, but their availability changes (on-call person). Is there a way to do this or should I have it email my local machine and run a script to forward it out? Does that make sense? :x
[22:22:45] <_fury> yeah
[22:22:56] <_fury> I don't see an attempted auth in postfix logs
[22:23:30] <sysmonk> _fury: try to attempt one, and see if something shows up in teh logs
[22:23:31] <_fury> http://rafb.net/p/X1uNkn21.html
[22:24:01] <_fury> I think it's honestly a user configuration problem
[22:24:03] <_fury> from this one person
[22:24:07] <_fury> or that is possible
[22:24:15] <_fury> but I wish it told me more about whether they were actually connecting on 465
[22:25:11] <pickcoder> _fury: so use iptraf or some other traffic monitor to see
[22:25:20] <sysmonk> _fury: very possible
[22:25:21] <pickcoder> do you know the source IP?
[22:25:30] <_fury> yeah I do
[22:26:28] <sysmonk> i thought there should be some TLS related info if they're using 465
[22:26:30] <sysmonk> or am i wrong?

[23:39:58] <sysmonk> akhilesh: 2 ways

[23:40:06] <sysmonk> 2. use regexp map

[23:40:52] <sysmonk> recipient_delimiter=-
[23:40:59] <akhilesh> where ?
[23:41:09] <sysmonk> then messages-ANYTHING at example dot com will go to messages at example dot com
[23:41:32] <akhilesh> thats exactly what I want.
[23:41:50] <sysmonk> with regexp's - just add an alias map with regexp type and make it /^messages-\d\d\d\d at example dot com/ messages at example dot com
[23:41:58] <sysmonk> or whatever regexp you like
[23:42:09] <akhilesh> but where to do these things ?

[23:43:12] <Xcaliber009> sysmonk: Thanks I'll take a look at that
[23:43:42] <akhilesh> oh, cool.. I just saw that the delimiter is +
[23:43:57] <akhilesh> so does it mean that mesages+anything@ will go to messages ?
[23:44:18] <sysmonk> yes
[23:44:33] *** mxmasster has joined #postfix
[23:44:35] <mxmasster> hello
[23:44:38] <akhilesh> I hope I do everything in /etc/postfix/main.cf ... right
[23:44:39] <akhilesh> ?
[23:44:44] <mxmasster> with virtual aliases
[23:44:51] <mxmasster> how do I deliver email to an application
[23:44:54] <sysmonk> werever your distro puts that, but yes, main.cf
[23:45:05] <mxmasster> with aliases i can name: "|/path/to/script.pl"
[23:45:08] <akhilesh> cool. Thanks sysmonk.
[23:45:10] <sysmonk> mxmasster: pipe it
[23:45:15] <sysmonk> mxmasster: right
[23:45:27] <mxmasster> so i have
[23:45:30] <mxmasster> @foo.com "|/usr/local/etc/postfix/typo.pl"
[23:45:35] <mxmasster> which failes
[23:45:42] <mxmasster> (s/failes/fails/) correction: which fails
[23:46:03] <sysmonk> alias_maps can't have @foo.com afair
[23:46:06] <mxmasster> postfix is trying to deliver to |/usr/local/etc/postfix/typo.pl at foo dot com
[23:46:13] <mxmasster> sysmonk: not alias maps
[23:46:15] <mxmasster> virtual
[23:46:17] <sysmonk> and virtual_alias_maps can't pipe to command
[23:46:23] <sysmonk> virtual doesn't support delivering to a command
[23:46:32] <mxmasster> okay
[23:46:34] <sysmonk> security reasons
[23:46:42] <sysmonk> mxmasster: just alias it to a local alias
[23:46:48] <mxmasster> sure
[23:46:50] <sysmonk> i.e. @foo.com something@localhost
[23:46:52] <mxmasster> that's easy enough
[23:46:59] <sysmonk> and add a something alias in /etc/aliases
[23:47:03] <sysmonk> which pipes it to your command

[23:47:17] <vice-versa> !virtual2local
[23:47:18] <knoba> vice-versa: "virtual2local" : virtual(8) to local(8) aliases(5) : Create a local alias as usual, name: value1, value2, ... then add the virtual alias as, user at domain dot tld name@localhost (localhost can be substituted for any domain listed in mydestination)
[23:47:36] <sysmonk> vice-versa: /me didn't know that factoid
[23:47:47] *** Xcaliber009 has quit IRC
[23:47:52] *** cilly has joined #postfix
[23:48:03] <vice-versa> I was thinking that was the case ;)
[23:48:49] <sysmonk> ;P
[23:49:53] <pickcoder> mxmasster: create a pipe transport and use transport maps
[23:50:23] <mxmasster> pickcoder: the virtual to local seems to work fine for us
[23:50:39] <pickcoder> I prefer to use a pipe transport because I can run it as a specific user
[23:50:52] <pickcoder> if you need per-user permissions then that should work better
[23:54:04] <sysmonk> yup
[23:59:33] *** drindt has quit IRC
[23:59:46] <vice-versa> guess we have a virtualpipe factoid
[23:59:58] <vice-versa> s/we/we should/
