Re: spammed by ICQ ???



The other problem is why the smtpd doesn't deliver this mail to you. I
have exactly the same when sending a mail from external world to my TT (or
Falcon, on both computers the system is exactly the same since i have
copied it via FTP from Falcon to the TT): max. hops count exceeded and
returning to sender.... 

BTW. as about Mirabilis, we should rather fawn ;) upon them instead of
making a lawsuit. As I hear, even Amiga people will get ICQ soon...
