Vecpyr changed their modem phone number and forgot to tell their
neighbors (one of whom is me). That's why mail to atari via vecpyr
has been bouncing. It should be fixed soon.

I thank George for pointing this out. Actually I suspect that *all* system
administrators have a low tolerance for inappropriate or excessive mail
going through their systems -- they just don't notice as much as we do.
One window on my Sun screen constantly displays the modem/uucp/mail/news
activity going on, so when I'm working I notice who is sending what through,
and I take the time to educate people who are wasting resources. Letting
everybody know what works and what costs what is vital to keeping this
wonderful shared network without accounting or fees going.
