They might want to grant send-as permissions to people to use noreply as an outbound address, but I'd do that with a DL and put no members in it so that messages sent there just disappear. In any case whatever they are trying to achieve would probably be better handled outside of Exchange using a bulk mail platform like Sendgrid or SES.

I just got a request to make a mailbox called “noreply@domain.com”

Am I just being stubborn or is making that mailbox defeat the purpose? Would it not be better to just have any emails going to it get rejected?

Cause some micromanager rear end in a top hat wants to see the sent emails without asking the admins for logs. Been there.

My boss is now saying that users need at least 25mbps for our new voip solution but that ISPs don't usually offer speeds that low

I'm not way off right, right - 10 is standard and should be plenty for web browsing vpn file transfers and voip right??
FWIW we stopped requiring our clients to use a VoIP-specific router with QoS we could control around the time that 30mbit/sec became "standard". By a year or two later when 50mbit/sec was available in most places we stopped even selling the things. 10 was usually fine but easy for a single user to flood out.

If a site is located in some shithole that only has DSL these days we just tell them to get a second one to dedicate to the phones, at which point even 1.5mbit/sec is fine as long as it's reliable. A T1 carries 23 calls when used for telecom purposes, though for VoIP it's only good for around 20 thanks to multiple layers of protocol overhead that don't exist on a PRI.

Lol imagine VoIP over dial up.
Anyone else remember CoolTalk?

I've never had two working modems in my possession at the same time during my VoIP career but I have always wanted to try running a low bandwidth codec like G.729 over dialup just to see how well or badly it works.

I just moved from having 20Mbit upload to 500 symmetric and never bothered setting any QoS back up, I figure I can just brute force things and it's worked fine for the last month.

our current system goes across a VPN, the new system that she was discussing wouldn't be (SaSS is better than a terrible system from the 90s)

Unless your VPN isn't set for split-tunnel. Then all the traffic would still go over your VPN regardless, correct?

I’m really sorry. I’m worried the same thing might happen to me soon. I’ve been long term unemployed previously for about a year, ngl it was fun as hell and made me hate working a lot. Do what you can to keep your spirits up, file for unemployment ASAP, and try to remind yourself you aren’t your job

Semantically, "you" is both singular and plural, though syntactically it is always plural. It always takes a verb form that originally marked the word as plural.

Also, there is no plural when the context is an argument with an individual rather than a group. Somfin shouldn't put words in my mouth.

Jesus Christ, I saw literal fast food in Florida offering $15/hr. That’s insane.

Maybe a good in for someone with no experience so they can bail upwards to a better job but otherwise Jesus gently caress
