In order to filter spam on server side KEIN MAIL is using DNS based blacklists (DNSBL). These lists are usually automatically generated and consist of the IP addresses where spam reportedly originated during the last few hours. KEIN MAIL servers do not exchange messages with these servers. At KEIN MAIL we are currently using the following blacklists:

As the first website of KEIN CMS farms we have upgraded the KEIN.ORG start site to Drupal 6.0 which has been released a few hours ago after one year of development. Thanks to the tireless work of the Drupal community, over 1,600 issues have been resolved during the Drupal 6.0 release cycle. These changes are evident in Drupal 6's major usability improvements, security and maintainability advancements, friendlier installer, and expanded development framework.

Drastische Verschlechterung der Lebensbedingungen von Fluechtlingen in Sachsen-Anhalt: Ab 01.01.2008 sollen Fluechtlinge, die neu nach Sachsen-Anhalt kommen, bis zum Ende der Durch­führung ihres Asylverfahrens und längstens für 15 Monate auf dem Gelaende der GU-ZAST Halberstadt (Gemeinschaftsunterkunft -- Zentrale Anlaufstelle für Fluechtlinge in Sachsen-Anhalt) bleiben. Danach sollen sie in die Landkreise um verteilt werden. Begründet wird diese dramatische Verschlechterung der Situation von Asylbewerbern mit der schlechten Auslastung der GU-ZAST Halberstadt und damit, dass das Land Sachsen-Anhalt gesetzlich verpflichtet ist eine ZAST zu betreiben 1).
