Yeah, but this is Microsoft's OWN server farm we are talking about here,
not some small podunk IIS-based hosting provider.
...well, you may be right. I am probably giving MS too much credit here.
On another note, someone pointed out to me off-list that I apparently
tyop'd "hostmaster" when I sent the e-mail to MS. I have since re-sent
it to the properly-spelled address and again promptly received a "User
unknown" bounceback.
