Outlook shared calendar – can’t edit/create events because of boss’s mailbox is full

As mailbox if full you can reduce it size in different ways. As all the data is stored in PST file so you can split the PST file into multiple files or you can create separate PST files like archive PST to move old items into it. This will help you in reducing the size of the file.RegardsMaria

Windows 98

I’m not sure I can get a Windows 98 system up and running to determine exact steps. You need to open your Control Panel, then open the Power Management function. There should be options you can select for turning off monitor and disks. Select the amounts of time you want and save the new settings. I can’t recall if it takes effect immediately or after a restart. — Tom

SQL insert error in php

First thing I’d try is to journal the file. If the error goes away and you don’t want to journal the file, next thing I’d do is end journaling and add an isolation level clause to the INSERT statement, e.g., [ WITH NC ]. — Tom

Encryption

Cannot receive incoming mail with a 993 port. I have to use port 143 which is not SSL. Anyone can read my email.
 
Assuming that you are a home user, the port has essentially nothing to do with whether or not anyone else can read your mail. The risk that anyone has any capability of monitoring your connection to the e-mail server is so small as not to be worth crossing your mind.
 
In a business environment with multiple network segments and network entry points, the risk can become meaningful. In a home where you connect to an ISP modem/router, it’s essentially zero risk. It’s a much greater risk simply that your e-mail is on the ISP’s mail server.
 
That points to a major difference between “encrypted e-mail” and “encrypted connection”. If the e-mail is encrypted, it’s very difficult for anyone ever to read the e-mail if it’s intercepted or if your account is accessed. If only the connection is encrypted, it’s difficult for someone tapping into your communication circuit to read what passes through the circuit; but the e-mail can be read by anyone who has acces to your account (or to the account of the sender or recipient on the other end). Encrypted e-mail is even protected on the other end, where the sender (or recipient) is involved. But an encrypted connection only covers your individual side.
 
In general, if you keep your ISP account passwords both strong and safe, it hardly matters if you use SSL or any secured communications. But if you let others know or guess your account passwords, then SSL won’t help at all… unless you use e-mail encryption.
 
Unfortunately, e-mail encryption isn’t trivial. A big issue is that those to whom you send encrypted e-mails must be able to decrypt the e-mails. Also, you must be able to decrypt any encrypted e-mails that are sent to you. Naturally, the same keys can’t be used by everyone; otherwise everyone could decrypt all e-mails and none would be secret. Everyone must have their own private keys and needs to give public keys to all recipients. It gets pretty messy without a plan and a purpose.
 
In short, it’s probably not worth thinking about, unless you have an actual specific need that you must address.
 
Now, if, for example, you have a practical idea about, say, a new kind of battery that would work as well as the latest lithium-ion batteries but without any risks of fire or explosion and would be cheaper to maufacture, your idea should be protected. Almost any communication you had about your idea should be secret. E-mails about it should be encrypted. You wouldn’t want someone else to get a description of how it worked and to start mass production before you could get it going.
 
That would be worth e-mail encryption.
 
But “normal” e-mail is unlikely to be a problem. Keeping your account credentials strong and safe is by far the most important thing you can do.
 
Tom

Retrieving the name of a file from object links

…so i can’t very well FTP to the same system.
 
Why not? Is it restricted?
 
FTP to/from same system might be the easiest way to do it. It’s certainly possible to read directory entries, but it’s a little more complicated.

SQL insert error in php

if it matters, I simplified the insert & also tried as an “update” and still get the same error. Same thing using a different (1-field) file (with no journal, no triggers) and using a UserID with a bit more authority (still limited). The SQL-select works fine.

What are your thoughts on ‘booth babes’?

Carlos, one of our editorial writers actually just wrote about a controversy surrounding Samsung and it’s Galaxy S4 event. I don’t think this looks good for Samsung at all.

What are your thoughts on ‘booth babes’?

I don’t like the idea either. 

I wonder whether those companies make some type of analysis that leads them to think that having those ladies will help them sell more.  It would be interesting to perform a study involving similar vendors with and without “booth babes”, to see the real effects (positive or negative) of this practice.

Coincidentally, today a friend of mine brought to my attention the fact that Samsung publicly apologized for some “entertainment” ladies that were dancing in launch of some of their new products at the Africa Forum a few days ago.  Here’s the link

Any thoughts of “Going Buffett”?

I work remotely much of the time and have used that to play music across the country, give workshops, and still consult for clients. I refer to it as Geographically Untethered Income. My two current dreams/goals involve 1) some land and a few small cabin style homes – maybe New Mexico – where my children can both visit and escape to. and 2) sailing a boat from Mallory Square down to the islands – a true Jimmy Buffett Mecca.

Retrieving the name of a file from object links

I’m not entirely sure this is something that would work. The system I’m on is where the file is, so i can’t very well FTP to the same system.This is in the IFS and I get to the file using the WRKLNK ‘/’ command. One of the directories holds a .CSV file and i’m just trying to retrieve the name of the .CSV file. The only option i can think of is to do a DSPLNK and mark the output as *PRINT, then copy the spooled file to a physical flat file and read that. Since there’s only going to be 1 file in there at a time per day, this might be one of the few workarounds without having to use API’s, which, i’m not entirely opposed to. It just seems that there should be an easier way to deal with the IFS.

Encryption

I have tried port 993 but it will not work. Could receive no direct answer to my questions from Charter.net. They kind of inform me that they have SSL for mobile use but not desktops which seems odd to me. They kept asking me questions such as what email client I am using etc and telling me to get my mail on their website. I just signed up with them and it is discouraging. I am using an IMAP configuration. Cannot receive incoming mail with a 993 port. I have to use port 143 which is not SSL. Anyone can read my email.
