Matraex has officially upgraded our web based mail client from Squirrelmail to Roundcube.

Roundcube is a modern mail client utilizing newer technologies for faster and more feature rich mail interaction.  Roundcube runs on our Linux webservers, utilizing Apache, PHP and MySQL.  The software connects to the mail server using the IMAP protocol.

All address book contacts and preferences were imported to Roundcube from Squirellmail at the time of the transition.

As well as updating and implementing their own technologies, Matraex provides server administration, open source production implementation and software customizations to business as a service.

Users with questions about the new mail service or Matraex Consulting Services should contact:

We have just scheduled our 5th Annual Matraex River Trip for August 11th, 2009.
This year it is going to be an all day trip with Lunch on the South Fork of the Payette River.

We are going to be guided by Cascade Raft & Kayak.
Their details on the full day expedition are here, They call it “The Plunge”.

I am sure pictures will follow

In our annual tradition we broke away for the afternoon and went Rafting on the South Fork of the Payette River.

It was July 25th, 2008,  a Friday afternoon,  we closed up shop and headed up to Banks, Idaho.
The previous 3 years we rafted the Boise Main but this time around we thought we try something a bit more intense.

Here’s our seating chart in case you don’t recognize us in the hats.

Bronco Billy, Staircase, Dog Leg and even a dead elk along the way,  everyone had fun and stopped at the Mexican Restaurant in Horseshoe Bend for dinner and drinks like we do every year. (I dont remember the name it changes every year)

We tossed the idea around of a full day rafting trip with a campout the night before for next years trip.

Thanks to Bear Valley River Co. for the tour.
