A few weeks ago I purchased these Ruby Programming language related domain names:-

• primeruby.com
• prime-ruby.com
• rubyprime.com
• ruby-prime.com

Not precisely sure what I'm going to do with them though obviously something related to Ruby. I prefer the hyphened name though I'm covering all bases by also purchasing the non-hyphened domain names.

I'm open to suggestions.

This falls into the category of 'Note to self'. I use Google Applications (Gmail system) to administer my email but using my domain name "essaytee.com" From that account I can send and receive email from my other domains.

Lately, my email activity died a little, wasn't getting as many as usual and definitely none from my running website (http://superjacent.net). I receive emails when comments are left. Well, comments have been left and yet no emails. Checked the site out, everything was configured as it should be.

As a last resort I logged into cpanel and walla, all email for superjacent.net was being diverted to the blackhole and no forwarding in place. Initially I swore that I set things up correctly the first time.

Back to my email account and I listed all emails pertinent to superjacent.net and the last one received was on 14 May, six days ago. Then it dawned on me. Six days ago I fiddled with superjacent.net domain, had to delete it and re-add so as I could point it to another document root. What I was doing was putting the running site back to the root of superjacent.net rather than a sub-directory. Obviously, when I deleted the domain name it also deleted the email settings as well.

Something to remember for next time.
