Saturday was decent. I didn't feel much better, but it was Meghan's going away party so I was outside a decent part of the day, which might have helped. After the party I fixed my dad's computer a bit, and that was it. Sunday was church at Salem, and I took a nap. I don't remember much else.

Monday was the first day of the fun known as training and welcome week. Basically since then I've been busy with work stuff constantly. Tuesday I started off the day with making some progress on the list server. I finished off the day doing a mass migration of email lists to the new server and rushing to get temp LDAP entries in place so we could go live since another system was broken. A bit over 4000 email lists in a day, that works. We'll find bugs in production I guess - so far all the new server restrictions seem to be working as planned though. Then Wednesday I finished up a script to add, modify, and delete LDAP aliases automatically, which should save hastle. That was also new student pizza and movie night which was fun with Ice Age. Although a bunch of us sat on our computers during it. And Mike Vedders leaves too many programs up and running while playing movies on the projector... That was followed by setting up my sister's computer (Macs have some cool features to help fix PCs), and meeting all her roommates and getting attacked by Austin in the process. 4 people at the movie ended up in her room, it was sorta weird.

Then I got this email forwarded to me. It was spam. No big deal, it's happened before, someone gets a list of Bethel people, the email servers don't like them anymore. The pattern in this one looks really odd though. Start poking a bit more, and see a distinct thing meaning the list came from one of two places. Look on one and someone obviously trying to get around the filters to harvest addresses. A marketing company, different from the spamming company. The emails are coming in at a rate slow enough that it's obvious they're trying to avoid detection. What a pain. Harvest from web (over 2 days, also likely to lessen chance of detection), demunge, and sell. At least the emails admitted they're an advertisement. How low can you go though - even targeted to the organization name...
