A Mailer Daemon gone wild at UCBLAPIS.

	I recently sent a letter (a followup to an article request) to
someone at or near ucblapis. The address somehow got screwed up. That's OK,
it's happened before.  However, what is very strange is that I have gotten
the MAIL RETURNED TO ME, ON THE AVERAGE, ABOUT 3 TIMES AN HOUR for the last
two days (89 copies and counting). Hey, I like mail, but this is ridiculous.
(Maybe they should rename it the Mailer Demon :-))

	I'd mail the source, but I might end up with another 100+ letters.
The article's header (body deleted) appears below, if anybody wishes to
dissect it.
