Date: Mon, 28 Feb 94 23:33:32 EST From: Kafka Dreams To: void Subject: *whoosh* Mumsy? Yes dear? Where does my void-mail go? Now dear, we know better than to ask others questions that we can already answer for ourselves. But Mumsy... Tut tut... Now tell me, what is a void? An empty space... a nothing I guess. And what else? Um... well, since it's an absence of everything, I guess that would mean it's even an abscence of atmosphere, so it's also a vacuum? Very good, child! Now, what happens when you throw normal, n-space material into a vacuum? Would it... um, implode? Now, dear, what kind of pressure would be acting on it? Oh! Yes, it would EX-plode! Excellent! You do take after your mother... And so... My void mail is exploding and scattering little bits everywhere? Oh yuck. Yes, well, sendmail IS a hack after all, my child. Now, see? You've answered your own question! Yes, but that still doesn't explain why *I* don't see copies of what I send to the list... Oh. Well, let's just ascribe that little piece of inscrutable behavior to unruly software and call it a day, shall we? Oh, Mumsy... Now now, child. No pouting! Or we'll have you cleaning out /tmp again! Yes, Mumsy. Goodnight. Goodnight, dear.
