Speaking of memory issues,  something weird happened here while we were
away for a few days.  I came back to find a *big* pile of stuff sitting in
my inbound and nothing getting tossed.  Saw something go by real quick that
all I caught was "re-run Optimize",  so I did.  Then when I tried
to "open window SQ" to toss the mail,  I got "a
non-swappable window is in the way",  meaning the mailer/bbs.  I ended
up having to fiddle with the settings to get things going again.

Darned if I know why a setup that'd been working when I went away wasn't
working when I came back.  It's working again now,  though.
