You thought that email was faster than carrier pigeons didnt you ?
Just goes to show how wrong you can be boy. Corse if I had actually
used carrier pigeons, that unspeakable Paul Edwards would have eaten
them. Atleast he doesnt actually do that with netmail yet.

Those are the ones which didnt get mapped to your point address.

BG> Christ, a fucking carrier pigeon would have been faster.

Dunno, those messages on the legs of those
Paul ate are probably gone for good now.

Well, ensure that they have the point number on the address if its
to one of Pauls points anyway. Tho he appears to have said that even
those without that will now get mapped, albeit weekly or something.
