Buying the Mail on Sunday could mean you are still reading it mid week as there is such a lot to read and all for £1.00.

The paper itself is 128 pages of news, gardening, travel, winter sports, travel log, holidays abroad and at home, sports mail and cartoons. If I went into each of these individually this opinion could take as long as the mail paper itself to read.

Like all Sunday papers and week day come to that, it does come with its fair share of additional papers and bits and pieces a lot of which go straight into the bin but anyuone who buys a paper expects this nowadays.

The additional magazine sections are good though.

Financial Mail

which you can also find on the internet (www.thisismoney.co.uk) gives the usual things like Midus, Markets, shares, personal finance and enterprise.

Review

this covers television, film, music, theatre, books and letters and my favourite Quotes of the week. Two good ones this week are one letter to the Guardian "Is the wind that carries the foot and mouth virus five, ten or 15 miles the same wind that carries pollen from GM crops 300 metres" and a quote from that wonderful man whom I love Spike Milligan when receiving an honorary Knighthood from Prince Charles this week "Do you know there are no dry cleaners in Peru?"

Lastly the You magazine with 90 odd pages covering features, Living, Fashion, beauty, food, health and relationships and of course the You crossword which you can (if you can) send off for top prize of £100

All in all you get all this for £1.00 which must be a bargain.

into a political chatroom and begins discussing
current events with a savvy citizen, neither knows
the other's surprising identity. You'll be e-mazed
too, as an entire country discovers the nation's
hottest new political mind belongs to an ordinary
middle school student, and Average Joe turns out
to be The President Of The United States! Yep...
that guy! Starring Randy Quaid as the Chief
Executive, and Emmy award winner Holland Taylor as
his skeptical assistant, MAIL TO THE CHIEF is more

You can do anything with sendmail, the saying goes, but why would you want to? The Exim ... more

mail-handling daemon, described in Philip
Hazel'sExim: The Mail Transfer Agent, is just as
capable as the old stalwart for handling everyday
electronic mail duties, and is far easier to
administer.Exim: The Mail Transfer Agentshows how
to set up and use Exim with a style and polish
that's typical of the blue-cover series of
system-administration books from O'Reilly. You'll
be very pleased with this book if you've chosen to
work with Exim but require better information than
the online documentation can provide. Philip Hazel
has done a good job of combining a comprehensive
set of details--including lots of command
listings--with advice and practical examples that
will make an administrator's life easier.Typical
of this approach is the treatment of methods for
blocking traffic from bad hosts that attempt to
mail to your Exim station. The book runs through
alternative techniques--using a public blocking
list, blocking hostsexplicitly and so on--in
series. Each technique is described in terms of
what happens and why, and includes listings of the
relevant configuration commands. Other sections,
such as those concerned with SMTP configuration,
are more reference-like. They contain long lists
of commands and options, in which the purpose of
each is explained.--David WallTopics covered:How
to set up, configure and administer the Exim
mail-handling agent. Directors, routers,
transports, filters and the integration of Exim
with Perl, shell scripts and database look-ups are
covered.
