Hi, I just wanted to let you know of a problem I am having; as far as I
can tell it's entirely my fault but I thought it would be good to
describe it anyway. Essentially, I think the problem arose when I
chpobox'd myself to
"khsiao@PO10.MIT.EDU, khsiao-canard@eepness.mit.edu" instead of
khsiao@PO10.LOCAL. khsiao-canard is a working alias on my machine,
so I suspect the problem is that po10.mit.edu doesn't accept mail for
me. I've chpobox'd correctly now, but the net result is that I'm
receiving no mail to my athena account until moira updates that
database. I was just letting you know this in case there were some
simple system you could implement easily that would prevent other
people from falling into a similar trap, I guess. Actually, is there
a simple way for you to update the database entry earlier than
tonight? I assume that would be a pain in the butt, though, so don't
worry about it. Thanks...
