Hi.  Someone has just "departed" from the board, and they didn't do
it cleanly, so I thought I would document the clean procedure as
part of tenpoint.txt.

One more thing is when you decide you no longer want to point.
Please save me from having to find out several months after you've
left that I've got 40 megabytes of mail waiting for you.  All you
need to do is deselect the echos you were collecting (by writing
to "Areafix") and then keep polling for one or two days longer
(until you get a message back from areafix to say that all the
areas have been deselected).  That way I don't need to do anything.  
If you decide in a few months time that you want to start getting 
mail again, that's fine, I am unlikely to have deleted your userid, 
so just speak with areafix and get the echos back.  A number of 
people have decided not to be points any longer and then come back, 
so please remember your password for when you change your mind!  :-)

BFN.  Paul.
