Update Filters and Authorized Senders Accidentally Deleted!

January 20, 2009

Ooops! I was in the process of making upgrades to the tweet update filter system (allowing you to blacklist or whitelist updates from specific users), and while doing so made a silly mistake causing all existing account filters to be removed. Filters can be put back into place using the new web management page, or by sending the command off {username}

Also, in the same stroke of brilliance, I un-verified all email accounts for using the short address (@tw2.ca) for sending updates and commands. You will have to verify your email accounts again by sending verify {secretcode} from that address.

I apologize profusely for this inconvenience, but hopefully the additions to the filter system will overshadow this little slip.
