Blotter 2.0.2 is finally available in the Mac App Store. In addition to the further improving the Snow Leopard support, Blotter 2.0.2 also resolves the issue with subscribed calendars from iCal. This means that your subscribed Google Calendar should appear just like they did in 1.4, but with the new beautiful user interface of 2.0.

Before we get started, we should point out that we have not tested this in practice. We are only basing this on public information (primarily from this article). Yet, it sounds reasonable, and feel free comment below and correct us. Similar to both Dovecot and Microsoft Exchange, Mirapoint Message Server also support logging into users’ accounts via the admin account by using a modified username-string.

On December 5th we launched a huge update, namely Blotter 2.0. Unfortunately, a critical bug sneaked in that affected Snow Leopard users. We submitted an update to Apple the very next day. Unfortunately it took this long for Apple to approve the update, but the update is now available in the Mac App Store as a free update.
Now with 2.0.1 released, we’ve submitted an update that resolves the issue with subscription calendars.
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience that these bugs may have caused.

In the years since we first launched YippieMove, we’ve been contacted by numerous customers asking us to accept PayPal. While we have accepted PayPal from a few clients who were based in countries where Google Checkout wasn’t supported, this is rare (and we’ve transferred the funds away from PayPal quickly). Generally clients who are asking to use PayPal do not fall in this category.
There is however a very good reason why we do not accept PayPal payment: it’s simply not a good experience. It’s not good for our customers, and it’s not good for us. PayPal has a well established record of mistreating its customers with little or no recourse. Once PayPal has arbitrarily frozen the money of a customer, whether it’s a merchant or private user, they provide virtually no recourse. There is no-one you can call, they are not regulated like a bank, and there is no ombudsman. Your money is simply beyond your reach, at the mercy of a few moody customer service reps.
That’s just not an experience we want to provide to our users. Nor, frankly, one we can accept for our own business.

One thing that many people are confused about is dual delivery (aka split delivery). Simply put, this means that emails will be delivered to two email systems simultaneously. This is often used to keep a new and a legacy system live in parallel. It is also frequently used during email migrations to ensure that no downtime occurs. The concept of dual delivery isn’t very hard to wrap your head around, but how does it work? When reading forums, some people are confused about this. Some people think that it is sufficient to have two servers with the same priority level in the MX-record. This is not the case. Simply having two MX-records with the same priority will load balance between the two, but not deliver to both.
