System name:		distraction.mit.edu
Type and version:	i686 9.2.27 (with mkserv)
Display type:		ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility M6 LY

Shell:			/bin/athena/tcsh
Window manager:		/usr/local/bin/vtwm.gamma

What were you trying to do?
	run from to see how much mail I had


What went wrong?
	I was stuck behind a NAT


What should have happened?
	USENIX should have provided a real network.


Yo, got any documentation, or other info?
	oh, right, from should have worked anyway, instead it did
	this:

distraction:~: from -v -h PO10.MIT.EDU
from: Premature end-of-file on IMAP connection to PO10.MIT.EDU
Exit 1

I was sure I'd reported this before, but I couldn't find that, so
maybe I never actually filed the report.  I realized that enough stuff
breaks behind NATs that we may not care, but I I have other IMAP
clients that work so I was hoping that it might be a simpler problem
than zephyr.
