Indeed. But not without justification. There are some funny goings-on out there. Why are your messages - only yours - scrutinized by "master" before being passed on to "murphy"? And why does master put adair's name in parenthesis as if he didn't believe he really existed? And who is adair? And why does he call you localhost.invalid? Funny goings-on indeed... -- David Jardine "Running Debian GNU/Linux and loving every minute of it." -Sacher M. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
