	folks, a little warning about mail filters and the like.

	you bounce 30 message in one day back and me and WHACK!
	you are unsubscribed.

	now i will make allowances for obvious errors , figuring that 
	you might notice the complete absence of mail, but that will only
	get you one more day of grace.

	i get from 300 - 2500 messages a day athe postmaster mailbox
	and i dont read all these %^)(#*@^& "file not found" messages.

	you can always resubscribe ;)

	consider this a formal warning.
