Talk about a waste of resources.... How do we know he's wrong about the second part? All we know is that the guy from Gwinnett saw copies of the man page for mail.

And it would be useful to know if people are going to rant and rave about waste of bandwidth. -- Chris Lewis; clewis@ferret.ocunix.on.ca; Phone: Canada 613 832-0541 Psroff 3.0 info: psroff-request@ferret.ocunix.on.ca Ferret list: ferret-request@ferret.ocunix.on.ca
