Vanishing Comments & Emails
Apologies if anyone has tried to post comments on this blog recently and found them vanishing into thin air. I think I added a word to my comments blacklist that caused comments to get nuked. I didn’t realise it could work on a partial word match, not the whole thing.
Also, I’ve had a few occasions where emails sent to info [at] this domain alias don’t seem to have reached me – I only know about these because people write in again and it works. I usually answer all emails ASAP, usually immediately and almost always within 24 hours, so if you’ve sent an email to that address expecting a reply and not received one, please write in again to steve [at] this domain.
I don’t know why this is happening, but I suspect it’s something to do with the alias. Most the time, it seems to work well.

I’ve increased the quota (up to 100MB, why skimp?) and got back to everyone I know who had a reject by delving through the logs, so hopefully that’s OK now. […]
