Well, it happened again.  The automatic list mailer broke down.  I
discovered this because traveller mail has started to flow on
rec.games.frp again, and I was surprised to see many messages were from
listees.  I'm starting to feel rather frustrated with it and am
considering receiving all traveller mail and processing it by hand.  As
it was, everything mailed in the interim was lost, again!

It was the same problem it was a a year and a half ago; the permission
on the LOG file was wrong, so it was unwriteable by the local mail
delivery system.  I've added even more debugging/message trapping to the
dumb thing to make recovery of lost messages more probable.

I think it all happened when I blew away my account and asked the
operator to restore all those files... the modes must've gotten messed
up.

GROWWLLL!!! Hate these dumb computers! Hate these dumb computers! Hate...

If you got this message and it isn't too much trouble to send an
acknowledgement, it would help me feel a little better.  Since I don't
want to get inundated with EVERYONE's response, please only respond if
you are feeling in a particularly helpful mood today...]
