This is a flame, but after two months or so of having my mail bounce
every week because of smail I can't help myself. Things used to work,
maybe not in the fancy domain way, but AT LEAST THEY WORKED. Now I
have no idea if anything will work. And I can't do loopbacks to test
uucp links.

I hate smail. I don't think too highly of the people that unleashed it
on us either. This system works worse than PC-DOS. I hate it.  Maybe
the authors are trying to teach me I get what I pay for. Unreliable
software.

I hate smail.
