Netmail leaving here, as well as echomail goes to Ross..Email goes from
here to my server.

Ah....the hatched file also goes to Ross, usuall the same day it is
announced....and as far as I know, from Ross it goes to Janis...so I
suspect the path is different for the hatched file and the echomail.

The robot is kicked in the butt manually.  Rex reaches out and touches
Ross, my server and a few other folks every 30 minutes....UNLESS the system
gets rebooted for some reason and I don't notice it....so I am now forcing
myself to do a sanity check to insure it's online.  I am finding a sanity
check of the system is a lot easier than on myself.  If the system fails
the check, it is easily cured....it's hard to say about the other patient.
