Re: [Nmh-workers] Every Three Minutes

[norm]

Mail directed to dad.org, goes to adzone.com, which forwards it to my Internet 
Provider, rawbw.com.

I use "cc: norm.org:L  instead of fcc for a kind of  neuritic reason. That way, 
I know that my message has made its way out in the world -- indeed has crossed 
the Tehachapi Mountains twice :-), so there is some chance it will go to the 
intended recipients.

Minor fcc bug or mis-feature: Can't send a message with fcc's but no recipients.
