The gmail spam filter is now working much better. Out of the 82 spam received in last 18 hours or so the filter correctly identified 73 of them. Seems strange that the filter works better after posting a reply on the extremetech forum herewere they were reviewing gmail.

Finally got blogger to generate a RSS feed from my website, secret given toi me on blogger forums was to put a forward slash at start and end of directory. Lets see if this pops up on my blogroll at Bloglines now.

Last night tried to set up the RSS function on my blog with the help from this post

Blogger went of air with some outdated message from last year. This morning I wake up to awhole new blogger, the interface is completly rehashed with help files etc and a much better way of showing old posts. However, tried publishing the whole site again to get the RSS feed in place. Comes up with a message after it has published about 10% that it has failed:-

553-“https://geoffjones.com” Directory does not exist on file:https://geoffjones.com/rss/rss.xml

.. damm

read new help file apparently shoulduse just /rss for feed directory. However, still fails after 18% thistime with error:-

550- 2004_03_08_nuyu_archive.htmlNo space left on device Error in upload on file:2004_03_08_nuyu_archive.html

this time at 50% 550- blogger.htmlNo space left on device Error in upload on file:blogger.html

now turn off rss function

Another test, this time I put step1 in the blogger template , rather than in the web site page

Came up with error 550 550- blogger.htmlNo space left on device Error in upload. Web host says I have 6MB left. This is so frustrating!

Tried republishing entire site rather than just latest. Comes back with

Current Status: Publishing is in progress. Please check back shortly.
