On further though you actually shouldn't be here... I don't think it would be taken kindly if the society was not self-sufficient; which it *was*, we could have survived without your help, not that we don't appreciate it.
Well, if you don't want me there, fine, but take note that you probably won't be able to answer any serious technical questions with any authority. Agreed. I think we can work around that technicality.
There is a meeting on Monday at 10:30am with Stephen Brown. I want the following people to attend: Myself, in the capacity of Vice-Chairperson Aidan Delaney as last years Vice-Chairperson Bart Busschots in the capacity of SU Executive Officer in charge of the Societies Cian Synott, as the guy who set the machine up. Stephen Brown also has requested David Bolger to be there... Dave, if you are afraid of being hounded by Stephen be aware that there's all of us there too.
be possible to implement this behaviour, but would involve a lot of custom hacking, and not just some configuration directives. Perhaps limiting the size of the mail queue?
I believe that it's possible to do something along those lines, but I don't see how it would help. Postfix is a real zippy little monster, it eats through it's queues extremely fast. Bugger. Keep trying to find a solution.

Okay, I'll get that day off; since I'm off on Tuesday anyhow I don't imagine it'll be a problem.

What Stephen requests, we do, methinks. :o) I don't imagine that Dave will get anything more than a slap on the wrists, especially seeing as Stephen is calling him up with us, and not separately.
Bugger. Keep trying to find a solution.
Look, things like this can happen when you're running a publicly-accessible Unix system, which makes this problem a policy one and not a technical one. We have rules, and we obey the rules of the college and of HEAnet. If individual users break those rules, we have a problem, but if MiNDS didn't exist I'm sure that this would've happened via the department's mail system.
