[ZODB-Dev] zodb-dev mail problem

[Christian Tismer]

Oops,

has anyone else seen this?
I just saw the header oj Jeremy's message:

>  From jeremy at zope.com Fri Nov 02 11:53:54 2001
> Received: from [208.184.249.90] (helo=yyz.digicool.com)
> 	by mail.python.org with esmtp (Exim 3.21 #1)

So if nobody saw these messages, then it might be a problem with the latest
Thunderbird update that found old, malformed messages from my archive.
... yes!

So then please forget what I said. I'm happy that this was just old stuff.

Cheers - Chris
