What were you trying to do?
I was logging in using the Check Your Email feature,
which speeds up login tremendously just when I want to see
if I have mail.
What's wrong:
I get the message:
>> The "from" command is temporarily disabled due to excessive load.
What should have happened:
It would be nice if you enabled the "from" command for
mailcheck logins, because mailcheck logins can be quick (if I don't
have mail I urgently need to reply to, which is usually the case), and
because if the cluster is crowded, such a mailcheck session takes only
about 30 seconds, and I can quickly cede my station to someone waiting.
