| Earlier tonight I attempted to send some mail using `/bin/mail' on
| opus.mit.edu, an irix 6.5 Indy running:
| 
|  Athena Server (sgi) Version 8.3.17 Mon Sep 20 20:22:20 EDT 1999
| 
| in the sipb office.  The invocation that I used was:
| 
|    ; mail yandros@mit.edu

/bin/mail is not a mail user agent. It is the final delivery agent
for local mail and can also forward mail elsewhere.
