Forcing OutOfOffice response to always fire in Zimbra
We had a need to create an e-mail account in Zimbra that would always generate an automated response to incoming e-mails. So we activated the OutOfOffice functionality (or “Vacation Mode” as some people prefer to call it). This is great, and you do have some …

Bredband2 och avgifter (för att skicka faktura med e-post)
Det här är helt underbart. Bredband2 har lyckats med konststycket att ta 19kr betalt för att skicka ut en faktura, som ett PDF-dokument via e-post. Ursäkta språket, men vad i helvete är det för fel på er, Bredband2? Har ni så dålig infrastruktur och administrativa …
