I don't think you understand my point.

I have a hard time imagining that the current behavior is what Steve  
Deering intended. But even if he did, it's obviously bad behavior and  
it needs to be fixed.

Was the message from the 27th the one about the end of the world? I  
couldn't tell whether you were joking or not...

Got it twice directly from you, twice through the list, this message  
too. IPv6 is so great, you get twice as many mail.
