how would you have viewed my system when it ran on auto-pilot for a year or two 
while i was burnt out and staying away from it and most other electronics?? i 
/might/ have posted 5-10 messages in that period... i think i peeked in on the 
system once every 3 or 4 months... it certainly wasn't dead or deadwood... it 
was very active processing and distributing mail and files...
