It appears that someone has sent out a sendsys message with a fairly
wide distribution in my name.  So far I've only gotten three sys files
in my mailbox, but there could be thousands in a day or two.  Any clues
as to how to track this guy/girl down?  What should I do with
him/her/it when I find it?

Someone sent out a sendsys message with my name on it too,
about the same time.  It doesn't bug me too much, because we
have plenty of spool space here and I use MH, but whoever it
was did a foolish thing:  they left off the distribution
line.

It was less of a practical joke on me than it was on all
those people in Europe and Asia who had to pay for sending
sys files to me.  Kind of too bad.  When the first sys file
arrived from the Netherlands, I had to stop laughing.
Whoever did it has a pretty poor sense of humor.
