For some reason that message is now being re-sent out to everyone with garbled headers. As a result, the mailer-daemons on a number of machines are sending back delivery failure messages back to my account, causing disruption of system activity and my own work. Not only am I getting failure messages from mailers, but sometimes, failure to "deliver failure message" messages from even smarter mailers. Though I would like to look at this as some sort of amusing "Brazil"-like machinery gone awry problem (I've given up on real mail, I just delete blocks of 50 messages at a time without bothering to even look at my mail anymore) it is highly igratiating to get flames from people afar who don't like their mail directories clogged up. I've appended one typical returned mail at the end of this message. I would appreciate someone looking into this matter post-haste. ramin --- ramin firoozye' {ihnp4,lll-lcc,hoptoad}!scampi!ramin systems control inc.
