Heh. Do the mailers at ISC Support support Return-Receipt-To: tickets ?
Some of the ones at SCO do. If you have a replyable address, you can
gain confidence that your mail to support at sco.com got there because
it's mailed you back :-) This can result in a rather full mailbox
because you get a separate ack from each of a whole list of
recipients. (It would probably be better to set it up so that only
the gateway machine ack'd it.) It also helps keep the guys who are meant
to deal with the problems on the ball -- they know that the complainant
knows that the problem report has got there!
