Background


Higgins signed a recording contract with Eleven while still at high school. After she left school she spent much of 2002 on a backpacking trip to Europe. When she returned she began writing music for her debut album, The Sound of White. The lyrics for "Ten Days" were inspired by Higgins' breakup with her boyfriend when she travelled to Europe.[1] The song was written by Higgins and Jay Clifford, the guitarist and lead singer of US band Jump, Little Children.



Release


"Ten Days" was released on 15 November 2004. It entered the ARIA Singles Chart at No. 14 and later rose to No. 12. It stayed on the chart for 20 weeks and was certified Gold.[2][3] It spent five weeks on the Recording Industry Association of New Zealand (RIANZ) Singles Chart, peaking at No. 39. The song was released in the United Kingdom on 30 May 2005, her first single to be released there, and reached No. 133 on the UK Singles Chart.[4][5]


In 2005, the song was nominated for an Australasian Performing Right Association (APRA) song writing award for 'Song of the Year' but was beaten by her own debut single, "Scar". The music video for "Ten Days" features footage of Higgins travelling through Europe.[6]

Postfix configuration issue with fips on centos 7; mailgun relay

Image
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 0 down vote favorite I am trying to setup postfix to relay all mail generated on the local machine via SMTP to a mailgun relay. I have used the mailgun relay before with success on an ubuntu server, but I am migrating to a Centos 7 server which I will be running in FIPS mode. There error log is below, slightly sanitized. I have a small enough network that I choose to have each machine reach out to mailgun individually (this the loopback-only, 127.0.0.0/8 restrictions) and no firewall open port allowing smtp in to the machine. I assume the FIPS mode (and with it disabling of MD5) is causing problems, but I don't know how to overcome it or if it is even possible for tls_fprint to use some supported hash such as sha256 or sha512. However, the relay=none is slightly concerning since I have relayhost set, but perhaps that is because the smtp process is failing? Any help would be appreciated! postconf -n: alias_database = hash:/etc/alia
