Hello,

	When I log in to the CONSOLE, I get the follwoing:

FreeBSD 4.5-STABLE (MAIL) #0: Fri Feb  8 20:21:11 EST 2002
You have mail.
If you'd like to keep track of applications in the FreeBSD ports tree,
take a look at FreshPorts;

        http://www.freshports.org/

The last lines are the annoying "hints" that I am referring to.  There is
a different hint every time I log on, and they began to appear immediately
after I did make installworld and rebooted.

Just curious as to what changed between 4.4-R and 4.5-STABLE that is
making them appear.

Thank You,

Marco Radzinschi
