Lusers: Yes, your computer can have more than one username and password
<DAU> I cannot send emails anymore. It always says the password is wrong.
<Me> Do you know your username and password?
<DAU> Uhh... I think.. wait.. Oh yes, I think it was *DAU tells username*
<Me> Ok, I will set a new password. You just need to set it in your mailclient too.
<DAU> How can I do that?
<Me> What mailclient are you using?
<DAU> What?
<Me> Outlook?
<DAU> Oh, yes. It's Outlook.
<Me> You can change the settings under "Accounts".
<DAU> I don't have that... I have "File", "Edit", "View"...
<Me> ... and "Accounts" under "Tools".
<DAU> Oh...
<Me> If you select your account and go to "Properties", you can set your password in the server settings.
<DAU> Ah, ok. Found that.
<Me> Good. I'll change the password in a bit. If it doesn't work in a few minutes, just call again.
<DAU> *5 minutes later* Now it says it cannot connect.
<Me> *checking* The server is up and running. All services are available and I can connect fine and log in with your username and password.
<DAU> Well, I click on Outlook and then this window pops up and it tries and tries and fails.
<Me> Are you sure you are online?
<DAU> Well, I click on Outlook and then this window pops up....
<Me> What does the window say?
<DAU> "Trying to connect to *ISP*"
<Me> That's your auto-connect dialog. Outlook tries to go online. That's way before it tries to access the mailserver.
<DAU> That always worked before.
<Me> Did you change anything there?
<DAU> No. *of course not*
<Me> What's the username in there?
<DAU> *DAU tells username... the email username*
<Me> Your ISP has a totally different style of usernames. This one must be wrong.
<DAU> Oh... Well, I'll wait until tomorrow and ask my boss.
IRC Logs: Why is "abbreviation" such a long word?
<White_Lioness> Some people are too damned lazy to type out people's names.
<White_Lioness> Or the word "people" for that matter.
<Corvus> what ppl?
IRC Logs: Doing as ordered! Well, kinda...
<HarryTruman> I'm not asking for proof, but if a random person instructed the bot to kick someone, would it do it or is Corvus the only one that can kick?
<pIRC-Bot> Are you talking about me?
* HarryTruman was kicked by AshKitty (fucker)
* HarryTruman has joined #channel
<HarryTruman> bot, kick ash
<pIRC-Bot> That's it! *sets HarryTruman on fire*
<AshKitty> bwahahahah!
<HarryTruman> figures
<Corvus> you should use his full nick
<HarryTruman> pIRC-Bot, kick AshKitty
* HarryTruman was kicked by pIRC-Bot (There goes HarryTruman)
* HarryTruman has joined #channel
<pIRC-Bot> You are safe here in #channel. And yes, I'm a liar
<HarryTruman> hmm
<HarryTruman> not what I expected
Lusers: Privacy? Not with me...
<DAU> Outlook seems to have a problem with my mailaccount. Could you please create a new one so that I can forward the mails from my old one using the webinterface?
<Me> What mailaccount and user? *DAU tells infos* Ok. What password do you want for the new account?
<DAU> Just use 123. I will change it later.
<Me> Hmm, you don't have the permissions to change your pass. Just tell me a password and I will set it.
<DAU> Uhm, I would really like to set it myself. It's nothing personal, but I just feel safer if I know that I'm the only one who knows it. That way, no one has access to my emails.
<Me> Well, ok. I will grant you the permissions temporarily so that you can set your password.
<DAU> Thanks. *short pause* Ok, password changed. Now I can start to forward the emails.
<Me> You won't need to do that. I just copied all your mails into the new account. You should now be able to access them with your Outlook.
<DAU> What? But how did you do that? I just changed the password.
<Me> Well, uhm, I'm the administrator. I don't need your password to copy your mails.
<DAU> *shocked* Could you also read them?
<Me> Theoretically, yes. But I have better things to do than reading the emails of other people.
IRC Logs: Hooray for pets!
<AshKitty> just found out you have a mouse
<AshKitty> I wanna see the mouse!
<Corvus> I have... 3 mice?
<Corvus> and one at work
<AshKitty> wait.... do you keep them in cages.... or do they just have free run of the place
<Corvus> that's my mouse: http://www.dansdata.com/images/shiny/optgreateye400.jpg
<Corvus> I have them on a leash
<AshKitty> I hate you
<AshKitty> why the ruddy hell didnt I know what you are talking about
