Hello...

	Isn't jgd@dixie.com == postmaster@dixie.com...I thought that
John was the owner/sysadm of dixie.  Sort of like sending email to
postmaster at my system complaining about something I did...I'm
postmaster, the complaint would fall on deaf ears (well, here it
wouldn't, but there it might) since the one you are complaining to
is the same that you are complaining about :)
