    tekiegreg got a reaction from PirlWerbtit in IMAP Email and Port blocking?   
    Hey guys, yesterday noticed I couldn't send email anymore using Thunderbird setup for IMAP, after trying on a different connection (Laptop IMAP at work) and succeeding I'm guessing my ISP decided to block something recently.  A quick check of the Xfinity/Comcast website revealed nothing helpful about what they were doing so I'm wondering if HawkHost can be more helpful.  Has Hawkhost seen Comcast do anything funny with ports lately?  Any ideas for workarounds?  Thanks!

    tekiegreg got a reaction from PirlWerbtit in Interesting observation on Network and Downtime   
    Was over at the Server and Network status board a few above here, and noticed, nothing since November 2012.  Have you guys gotten lazy posting outages?  Or has there truly been no major outage worthy of posting since Nov 2012?  Which is probably a record for any shared host...from my observation the latter might actually be the case (I haven't noticed anything).

    tekiegreg got a reaction from Orvilrvlipv in Video manipulation libraries out there?   
    Hi there, I know there's plenty of still image manipulation stuff out on the web such as ImageMagick, but are there any libraries out there that do video manipulation out there (for example let's say I had 2 videos and wanted to splice 30 seconds of one video into another)?  Does HawkHost implement anything?  Or if I got a VPS could I do it myself?  Thanks!

    Well it appears the Spammers have smartened up to SpamAssassin with a vengeance now on my end. With the majority of my Spam going right past their filters. I thought about trying to lower the SpamAssassin threshold, but my concern here is I may bust too many innocent emails. What kinds of things have you folks tried to knock the Spam Count down within SpamAssassin these days?

    tekiegreg got a reaction from PirlWerbtit in What versions of PHP are Available? Or Why won't MediaWiki upgrade?   
    Hey guys was trying to upgrade MediaWiki via Softaculous just now and was getting a message "unable to upgrade, PHP version 5.3.2 required".  What version(s) of PHP are available right now, or any other ideas?  Thanks!
