- Dave, if you want to talk about mail reliability, which has some
- relevance to this newsgroup, and do it in a context of more than "my
- site runs SMTP software I have written so mail everywhere is
- reliable", then fine. I will happily discuss that with you. Even when
- you start it with insults. I will continue to point out that not
- everyone runs SMTP or your software, and that you have no control over
- what software handles your mail after it leaves your site.
-
- If you want to whine about how awful my plan file is, which has no
- relevance at all since I don't have one, then feel free. Just don't
- confuse who the pig is and who the farmer is, cause you certainly don't
- live in the farmhouse on this one.
