No mail for you! You go home now!

The day started with postoffice, the main back-end mail repository, falling over. Then it came back. Then it went down. Then it came back. Then, just when I was about to go to aikido cos things looked stable, it went down and took everything with it yay. Still not fixed. Angry Coffee Guy has been dispatched to the colo to be Brian's hands and eyes.

This also has the amusing effect of shafting shell logins, because most shells helpfully try and do a mailcheck when starting up. Brian finally disabled that after I prodded him, but it doesn't help tcsh users, I don't know why. Newbie's trying to suss that but to no luck so far.

Also, disabling MAIL and MAILCHECK fucks up emacs. I don't know why that, either.
