in Mailfoundry review on Its Complicated
I'm sorry to hear you had such a bad experience with the sales rep. I never had to deal with a sales rep before, I did my entire setup online without any human interaction. I've also never had a problem I had to call in for support with, so I can't reallly comment on that part either. The service itself is great for my needs, and has been very effective.

Well I can tell you what the settings are set to on my Vista PC so you can reference your settings and see if that helps.
Auto Disable Gigabit - disabled
Auto Disable PCIe - Disabled
Audo Disable PHY - disabled
Flow Control - disabled
Green Ethernet - disabled
Interrupt Moderation - Enabled
IPv4 Checksum Offload - Disabled
Jumbo Frame - Disabled
Large Send Offload IPv4 - Disabled
Priority & VLAN - disabled
Receive buffers - 512
Receive side scaling - disabled
Shutdown wake on lan - disabled
Speed and Duplex (I have 1Gbps Full fuplex) - will vary

I have also disabled the network tuning process in Vista (A Google search will easily show how to do this). If you continue to have problems, try going back to the stable release of the Tvix firmware. Hope that helps!
Thanks

I use a plugin for wordpress called "search unleashed" which allows this. It indexes all my posts and pages and allows for the special highlighting you saw on my blog with words highlighted from google searches...

I don't think this trick will work with Windows Vista, the MS KB says it applies to Windows XP.

in Google Chrome Review on Its Complicated
I just noticed one other negative thing... On facebook.com you can't edit any of your information through Chrome. When you click the edit links it just takes you back to your main profile page or Wall. But again, this isn't necessarily a Chrome issue, it is probably bad coding on the web developers part. Not a deal breaker for me either.

in Facebook explosion on Its Complicated
Forgot to mention that after setting up Liz's account last night, I went through a few of our common friends that I had on my account and went through trying to add other people she knew, but did so from my account on accident, so I added a bunch of her friends to my account that I didn't want. So now as they have been confirming me, I've been going in and removing them...

Ok here is an update. In the last two weeks lone, MailFoundry has blocked over 42,000 messages foy two of my domain names. I am still very happy with the MailFoundry service, and all of my two false alarm issues were cleared up by using the whitelist. I should mention the whitelist is quite customizable as well, you get granular control over what checks actually get disabled by whitelisting, so you can turn off anti-spam filtering but leave virus scanning on...

in Goodlink and ActiveSync on Its Complicated
Good find! I did suggest this in a feature request through Good support, but I doubt they will take this one on. Sounds like they want to be the primary e-mail app on the device, and don't want to deal with potential issues of other e-mail apps running on a single device. Here's for hoping though!

in Goodlink and ActiveSync on Its Complicated
I guess I'm lucky then that using the sync to Exchange setup I am able to sync once, but then the option gets grayed out. That lets me at least setup my contacts once, but then if I make changes they don't get synced. Its a pain, and I did complain about it to Good support, but not sure what their plans are for this.

Thank you for your comment! I honestly never thought anyone from MailFoundry would read this, but hope it was helpful. As I said in my post, I am very impressed with the service so far even aside from the few minor issues I pointed out.
Thanks again!

I can so feel your pain here. I deal with this type of thing all the time in my company as well, same exact issues, word for word. And if you have international travelers, ever notice how the international calling features drop off their accounts now and then? Its a feature....

Oh I haven't even gotten started on how making ANY change to a line or the BAN results in losing all Opt-Out features on said lines or BANs. Yep...it's a feature for their bottom line...

in Goodlink and ActiveSync on Its Complicated
Yes this is a very frustrating issue. I found that if I delete my activesync profile on the phone and re-create it, it will sync with my Exchange server and I assume it will sync with Outlook over the sync cable. Have you tried re-creating your activesync profile? I mentioned this to Goodlink and they said this is by design and using both goodlink and activesync is not a supported configuration. So I submitted it as a feature suggestion.

in FIOS customers - better DNS solution on Its Complicated
You have to go into your "My Network" settings, and click on the edit button for the "Network (home/Office)" connection (should be the top level item). Once there, click "settings" and you should all the global configuration for your home network in there, where you can among other things, change the DHCP settings. Hope that helps!
Thanks

in I almost got run over by a schoolbus! on Its Complicated
Thank you for your comment Cindy, but I can tell you honestly that there was no flow of traffic. It was stop and go and there was a backup right in front of me. This bus driver was not paying attention. Also this is a two lane section of road where there are two lanes in each direction, both lanes on my side of the road were backed up, the left lane was completely stopped. While I feel like I'm being quizzed on my knowledge of the road, I do appreciate public interaction on my blog. Thanks for reading and posting the comment!

Update: Microsoft has released a post SP2 update for Exchange 2003. They have also accepted a backport for other patch versions, so there will be a hotfix for other patch versions of Exchange 2003 as well. I think all the patches will be available on the Microsoft website sometime in the next week or two.

P.S. I plan to post the specifics with all the details, microsoft KB articles and what we found out afterwards. I'm working with Microsoft now to do some issue reproduction in a test environment to help solve the issues we experienced. Im typing all that up now.
