	For unknown reasons, mail started to be "refused" from my
	mailserver just as I was heading out this afternoon.  It may have
	been a bad DHCP lease, ??  Anyway, a make restart and other
	reinitializations didn't seem to work, so my next guess is that I
	didn't restart my maps, databases correctly.  If I ever have
	enough courage to test these theories in the next 95 years, I'll
	know.  Meanwhile, I've got to beg help from some REAL system
	admins here.  Postfix looks worth trying, but like I said, iff
	a wizard is handcuffed to the nearest chair:)
