http://people.freebsd.org/~yar/ is a valid URL, because yar is indeed a
committer.

this said, something (read: mailer-daemon error) tells me that
yar's e-mail below (bottom) is not quite right.  haven't bothered to open
the attachement and don't really see the point, given the virus comment in
the bounce reply.

perhaps this is already old hat.  perhaps it is just my mistake. 
nevertheless, i thought that you might appreciate a heads-up that some
spammer(s) may now be highjacking freebsd.org addresses in an attempt to
get us to open their attachments.


cheers,
epi

hello yar,

i am not sure what this message is all about.

1) did i just misunderstand?
2) was this intended for someone else? or
3) is someone sending spam and faking that you are the sender?
