It seems to be one of those pretty harmless console messages (another
common one being "ERR POP EOF received").  I've got accustomed to it 
and figure it's another of those email clients using non-standard 
protocols. 

Thanks to those in the past who allayed my own fears with these 
console messages,

chas

ps. Does "unable to get canonical name of client" fall into the same
    'messes up the console but otherwise harmless' genre ?
