Hmm, I have sendmail set to only accept email from senders that resolve. If 
your email client is putting your machine name in your email address, that will 
cause this problem.

It's a spam control measure. You'd be surprised at how much spam that one thing 
got rid of. :)

OK, I should probably learn how the site works, so I can import and checkin/out 
files myself. :)

In the meantime, I've resolved most of those warnings. It appears my kludge 
handling wasn't.

They are all warnings. Now I'm dealing with the ones pertaining to variables 
that are only used once. Some of them I'm assuming I won't want to do anything 
with anyway. An example of this is the "cost" field. Do we really need it?

Is this part of the excite@home stuff that's having financial problems?

I get my home mail at work, so I'll probably subscribe from home.
