The services:

email

your login is your primary email address
webmail and account maintenance are at https://mail1.dridus.com:7443
the server has antispam and antivirus -- for spam you can mark things junked from webmail to improve the filter. junk is put in the folder of the same name, which is not really accessible via pop3.
if you don't like webmail, use IMAP over SSL at mail1.dridus.com
SMTP is supported, but make sure you use TLSv1 (or SSL) and login with your username and password
POP3 sucks, so I've disabled it. get over it.

web

log in via SFTP to fairleas.mbo.dridus.com using your username and password which I've given you
web site files in /export/www/domain.com/htdocs
you like to see your logs? they are in /export/www/domain.com/logs

shell

log in via SSH to fairleas.mbo.dridus.com
be good -- don't make me hate you
you can't get at your email just by using mutt or pine or mail or whatever -- you have to get at it via webmail or something else
if that upsets you, I can arrange an IMAP client on the shell

admin

I am on AIM as Dridus, but I have everyone who is not on my list blocked. so if I'm not online, that is why
phone works, if you have my phone
rmm dash admin at dridus dot com

The legend:

dridus is my personal nickname, and in 1998 or there abouts I got the dridus.com domain name and had a server that was wedged (somewhat literally) into a corner of the internet room at my school. from that point, it expanded to two servers, got new hardware, etc, and more and then less users with web sites, muds, email, and all that. now a days the muds have all left for greener pastures, and the remainder is email, hungry hats, and a couple home pages and so on.
