From: Ron Newman <rnewman@Athena.MIT.EDU>

System name:		e40-008-13
Type and version:	RTPC-ROMPC 7.4G (1 update(s) to same version)
Display type:		

What were you trying to do?
	Log into a 7.4 dialup.

What's wrong:
	I get this message when I log in, presumably because my mail
is forwarded.  This has always happened, but I'm sending a bug report
now because I recall reading that this should no longer happen in 7.4.

Running standard startup activities ...
from: can't find post office server.
from: Trying unix mail drop...


What should have happened:
	Either "from" should not be invoked, or it should be silent.
