The problem here is that the machine "MC" is no longer directly
accessible by mail, and that the route needed to reach it is one that
our mailer does not currently understand. (It just gets confused and
drops the mail.)
We are aware of the problem, but are not sure how soon it can be
fixed.
For sending messages to the bboard list, try sending to
MINTAKA.LCS.MIT.EDU instead of MC.
