Right now, a good percentage of the return addresses I see on things coming in to me are bad, with at least one hop missing. A lot of the mail I get comes through ...!ihnp4!fortune, and when I reply to it, the fortune hop isn't there. I don't know if this is fortune or ihnp4 or even some unknown gnome upstream doing this (it doesn't seem to be our site) but it should probably be looked into. Another one seems to be decvax, since I got a message the other day with the address ...!orca!decvax!..., and when I mailed to ...!decvax!orca!... I got the poor message back because decvax seems to have never heard of orca. *sigh* And so it goes... Isn't technology wonderful? I'd appreciate it if the orca people could drop me a line and let me know how to get ahold of them... ~And so it goes~ chuq -- From the house at Pooh Corner: Chuq 'Nuke Wobegon' Von Rospach {fortune,menlo70}!nsc!chuqui Have you hugged your Pooh today?
