My qmail installation works fine.
Now I wanted to add a new email address to my domain so I can sent emails from this new address. As I tried to send an email from this new address following error message came back:
The message could not be sent because one of the recipients was rejected by the server. The rejected e-mail address was ‘he@someone.com’. Subject ‘test email’, Account: ‘mail.com’, Server: ‘mail.server.com’, Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: ‘553 sorry, that domain isn’t in my list of allowed rcpthosts (#5.7.1)’, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 553, Error Number: 0x800CCC79
After some hard time to figure out what causes this error I finally realised that the problem lies inside of Outlook Express.
Please check if Outgoing Mail Server requires authentication is ticked.
It is located in Tools > Accounts > Properties > Servers .
This should solve the problem and you should be able to send emails from your new email account.
I wanted to create a category page which only shows a excerpt of a post and then a link to the actual post. But it was impossible to use a quicktag from the wordpress admin section to produce a link after the excerpt text. Only the title of the excerpt was a link to the actual post. So I looked if someone had the same problem and found this: the-excerpt-reloaded
A fantastic plugin which solved my problem.
After we used an own contact form for this site, we found it would be easier if you could handle a contact form directly from your WP admin panel. So we searched for a solution and found this useful plugin: WP-ContactForm
This plugin allows visitors to send an email to you. It’s pretty easy to install and very handy to use.
Favicons (short for Favorite Icons, spoken “fav-eye-cons”) are 16px x 16px icons which appear either next to a website’s URL in the address bar of a web browser (e.g. Firefox, Opera, Safari) or - if the page gets bookmarked - next to the bookmark in the bookmark list (e.g. Internet Explorer 5). Note: IE shows favicons next to the URL in the address bar only when the web site has already been bookmarked.
Purpose
A favicon makes it possible to associate a logo with a web site or page and can personalize or brand a web site.
Main Steps
1. Download the ICO (Windows Icon) File Format Plugin for Photoshop from www.telegraphics.com.au
2. Decompress this ZIP archive into the “File Formats” folder inside your “Photoshop Plugins” folder.
3. Quit and relaunch Photoshop, if it’s already running.
4. Design an image in Photoshop in the size 16px x 16px.
* Design the icon at a larger size first (e.g. 64px x 64px) and reduce it later to 16px x 16px.
* Keep the design simple, because designs may become fuzzy at this small size.
* Use few, contrasting and saturated colors. In this small size colors can look rather dissaturated.
5. Save as: save the image with the format: ICO(Windows Icon)(*.ICO)
* The favicons can be named anything you want as long they are saved in the icon format (.ico).
6. Upload the favicon to the server
7. Include the following link into the head section of your html files:
* If you want to use only one favicon for the whole web site, it is sufficient to name the icon favicon.ico and upload the file to the root directory on the server.
* However some browsers won’t actually display favicons until instructed by a web page. Therefore include the following line of code in the head section of your top-level HTML page:
* If the favicon file is not in the same directory as the html files, you need to include the path as well as the file name in the href attribute, e.g. href=”http://www.domainname.com/images/favicon.ico” or href=”/images/favicon.ico”
* If you want to have several favicons for different web pages of your web site, you need to upload for each page its own favicon.ico file and include its own code line in the relevant html file in the relevant subdirectory of the web pages.
If you like to show html code in your blog, you have to use the html entities “greater than” and “less than” instead of the brackets, otherwise the code will be executed.
If you like to set a specific vertical alignment you have to put ‘valign’ into the <tr> tag or into the <td> tag, because there is no attribute such as ‘valign’ for the <table> tag.
