mail sent to you at jik@bloom-picayune.mit.edu

A daily script running from cron on bloom-picayune.mit.edu found a new
file /usr/spool/mail/jik which was presumably generated by someone
sending mail to you at jik@sipb.mit.edu.

If you expected to receive local mail on bloom-picayune.mit.edu, no
special action is needed. You can just login to bloom-picayune and
read it, e.g., using the "standard mail program" /usr/ucb/mail.

If you expected that this mail would get automatically forwarded to
the MIT/Athena mailhub: you were, unfortunately, wrong. We can,
however, arrange for mail forwarding, either via a .forward file that
you can later edit yourself, or (preferably) by adding you to the list
sendmail reads when it decides whether all your mail is supposed to go
to mit.edu. Please reply and let us know which you want. We can also
just mail you the mail-spool file if you aren't able to login to
bloom-picayune to read it.

If you have no idea what this message is about, it probably means that
the script is broken somehow, so you should reply anyway and tell us
to fix it...
