This is one reason why rabid rerouters are routinely cursed.
Consider trying to debug a mail problem among b!c!d!e!f!host_a from host_a
if b,c,d, or e is rabidly offisious.

Do you think we could condense the next 37 rounds of this argument into
3 or 4 keywords?  How about a monthly posting of the arguements of both
sides?  The only excuse I have for continueing is to try to limit the
number of converts the Other Side makes among newcomers.  I have no hope of
reclaiming those who have already chosen Evil.
