I put some error checking into chpobox so that users can't screw
themselves so easily. I'd like some feedback about the error
messages. In particular, I'm unhappy with the last one shown:
Toto>./chpobox
User mar, Type POP, Box: mar@E40-PO.MIT.EDU
Modified by mar on 19-mar-1992 01:24:48 with chpobox
Toto>./chpobox -s mar@athena
Error: this will set a mail forwarding loop.
Use "chpobox -p" to set a local post office server.
Toto>./chpobox -s mar@mit.edu
Error: this will set a mail forwarding loop.
Use "chpobox -p" to set a local post office server.
Toto>./chpobox -s foo@mit
Error: "foo@mit" is a local mail address.
Your mail drop must be on a post office server or an external mail address.

Also, is there ever a valid reason to set a pobox to a different name
at the local mailhub? BTW, the name(s) of the mailhub(s) are not
compiled in; they are fetched from the moira database at runtime.
