The otherday, I recieved about 400 bounced messages that
my machine tried to forward to another machine through
a third.  Well, the third machine was down and the forwarder
bounced them back to me, who gets postmaster mail.  I then
get a 1 Meg mailfile and no easy way to prosess it to resend
it when the machine went up again.  I tried to edit the
file to remove the stuff about being bounced,
but that made it unreadable to elm.  Why was it unreadable?
And how could I have remailed it without using bounce command
and typing in all 400 odd addresses?
Thanks.
