... while talking to mail.weird.com.:
>>> MAIL From:<skippy@macro.stanford.edu> SIZE=2829

'macro.stanford.edu' is not a valid e-mail domain (there is no MX record
for it). 

??? What is this poop? Since when do hosts HAVE to have MX records?
macro.stanford.edu most CERTAINLY has an "A" record. Why isn't that good

Take care,
