Guys,

One dumb question:

What numbers are INT_MAX and DBL_MAX in C?

The maximum for that type that can be represented. It's platform
dependent.

on FreeBSD 4:
# define INT_MAX 0x7fffffff /* max value for an int */
# define DBL_MAX 1.7976931348623157E+308

I didn't think it was possible
to misconfigure a mail daemon that badly, but he seems to have managed it.

Dunstan's theorem for the day states "The degreee to which a mail daemon can
be misconfigured is unbounded." Proof (if any more is needed) is left to the
reader.

The correct solution is for Marc to forcibly unsubscribe
gpratt@colina.com, but I have not been able to get Marc to do anything
about it (he does have a lot of more-significant problems on his plate
at the moment).

Maybe having more than one list admin might be a good idea?

I work for an ISP, you should see some of the stuff our Customer Care
people need
to fix. Cluelessness abounds.

If I can help in this regard, I'm willing.....
