I'm so dozy. I phoned Orange this morning to ask about upgrading my phone (to a Nokia N95), thinking I was around 16 or 17 months into my 18 month contract. I was told that I was actually only in month ten and so there would be a significant charge were I to upgrade. I had to look back through my blog to confirm that the bloke I spoke to was indeed right.

Less dozy is the fact that all my mail now goes to my GMail account rather than me hosting my own mailbox. The only thing with this is that I don't seem to receive mail I've sent to mailing lists myself - if anyone (oh, Lazy Web, help me!) knows of an option in GMail's settings to remedy this, could they please let me know as I can't find it. What it does mean is that I'm downloading a lot less mail now as it all passes through their spam filter before then also being filtered by Evolution's SpamAssassin plugin.
