It has come to my attention that the Reply-To: header of the comp.software.misc was munged up. If you've sent a vote, and it bounced, please send it again to one of the addresses listed below: DNS: jtc@wimsey.bc.ca UUCP: ...!{uunet, ubc-cs}!van-bc!jtc Sorry about the screw up, --jtc -- J.T.

The Reply-to: was OK in the version I saw - but the address doesn't work!
See the following lines from the 'bounce' I got when I voted.
Note: mcsun.eu.net is now on the Internet, so has access to the internet
name servers - though it's possible that it's been talking to one with
out of date tables which nevertheless claims to be 'authentic'.

Meanwhile, I'll try again, this time to van-bc.UUCP - according to our
local tables van-bc is a "known site".

Thats what I meant -- I misspelled "wimsey.bc.ca" as "wimsy.bc.ca" I've been shuffling between unfamiliar machines to post and read news ever since mine (tessera) died. News on wimsey/van-bc isn't set up to put its Internet address in the Reply-To: header; so I thought I'd put it in myself. Unfortunatly, I misspelled the address. --jtc -- J.T.
