Subject: [Muug] MUUG Meeting, Oct 14, 7:30pm -- Got Spam? Fight Back!
Message-ID: <200810071615.m97GF9v11295@iron.cs.umanitoba.ca>

The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly
meeting on Tuesday, October 14.  The meeting topic for this month is
as follows:

   Got Spam? Fight Back!

   This month, MUUG regular Gilbert Detillieux will talk about spam, 
   why it's a problem, and how to fight back.  His presentation will 
   focus on how he's configured sendmail's built-in features for
   blocking spam, as well as a few external mail filters (milters) 
   that allow for more elaborate filtering.  Milter-greylist, 
   SpamAssassin and ClamAV will be featured. 

   It's also election night in Canada, so make sure you go out and
   vote! Polls close at 8pm, so you should have plenty of time to 
   vote before you come to the meeting. 

The group holds its general meetings at 7:30pm on the second Tuesday of
every month from September to June.  (There are no meetings in July and
August.) Meetings are open to the general public; you don't have to be a
MUUG member to attend.

	7:30pm -- Round-table/Gadget Showcase/Mix&Mingle
Message-ID: <200812021705.mB2H5IC26786@iron.cs.umanitoba.ca>

The Manitoba UNIX User Group (MUUG) will be holding its next monthly
meeting on Tuesday, December 9.  The meeting topic for this month is
as follows:

   Round-table, Gadget Showcase and Mix & Mingle

   With the usually active holiday season approaching, we'll take
   things at a more relaxed pace.  So, we'll give more time for the
   round-table discussion (rather than cutting it short as we had to
   last month), then instead of a very short coffee break, we'll have
   a more laid-back mingler with some holiday treats and more time for
   informal discussion.

   This will also be a geek gadget showcase! So, if you've got a cool
   (but portable) geek gadget to show off, bring it to the meeting.
   Want to show off that new Eee PC, or that iPhone, OpenMoko phone,
   or whatever new gadget?  Bring it along!  Does it run some flavour
   of UNIX or Linux?  Even better.  Is it open source?  Better still!

   We'll have time to show some things during the round-table
   discussion, if you need the data projector, or you can just show
   your gadget to small groups in the later part of the evening.

The group holds its general meetings at 7:30pm on the second Tuesday of
every month from September to June.  (There are no meetings in July and
August.) Meetings are open to the general public; you don't have to be a
MUUG member to attend.
