If my tickets expire, Zephyr allows me to continue to send notices,
which are then labeled "UNAUTHENTIC" when they arrive at the
recipient's window. But if I don't have any tickets at all (e.g., do
a kdestroy) then Zephyr complains that it can't find a ticket file
and it doesn't send a notice at all. This seems inconsistent; why
shouldn't lack of tickets merely produce unauthentic messages?
