O$10 <TMObj>

Fri Jan 15 16:49:18 UTC 2021

Thanks for the kind words, I managed to speak with the support, ended up learning details how to use web mail setup (not what I called about anyway), and finally getting the guy create the support ticket - hopefully somebody who knows how to setup mail server will follow up and resolve the issue.

I am back to "happy friday" mode again :-)
