Re: oops from our mailer

Please ignore my earlier message (and apologies to the postmasters for my
follow-up--I didn't realise just how large my oops logs were); despite
having run memtest86 on my RAM before installing it into said mailer, only
one of the three DIMMs was any good--one had 800+ errors in half an hour's
testing, and the third didn't get as far as the BIOS..

Sorry (and how did the machine work at all?),
