what trick(s) do y'all like to use to create a bootable thumb drive,
bootable on either efi or bios, containing ISOs of
  +  an ubuntu variant,
  +  rhel or centos,
  +  pfsense or freebsd,
  +  win10,
or even a decent subset of these?  just the linuxen are easy, but win10
bootable too, on the same stick?  and maybe even pfsense or freebsd?

Subject: [tclug-list] Postfix retry emails
Message-ID: <c094cba87a15f6b5fce3224fb0a9c40ee3469911.camel@mtu.net>

When postfix can't deliver a message it will keep retrying for up to 5
days. When this happens an email is sent back to the sender that says
the email was delayed and will be retried. On some of my systems the
sender and recipient are the same address (for various reasons) and
this email about the message being retried creates a bit of a feedback
loop. Does anyone know how to configure postfix to not send the message
to the sender that the email is delayed?

Thanks,
Jon

It has been a while since I have worked with Postfix configs but I think 
there is a setting called delay_warning_time that you're looking for.

http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#delay_warning_time

It looks like you just need to set that to a zero value.

Thank you, that looks like just what I need. I see that I have mine set
to 1 hour.

anyone know how to make filename completion in less case insensitive?  my
INPUTRC environment variable is working as desired in bash, but not in
less.  eg in bash lower case r<tab> will complete README, but in less i
still have to type R<tab>.
