There have been two big problems recently:

- xent's disk was full for a while (full of bounces) and so it wasn't
  accepting incoming mail until I cleaned it;
- kragen.dnaco.net was offline for a couple of weeks so I could get
  someone in Dayton to disable buggy BIND.

Also, I tend to send a lot of mail, and that tends to get delivered in
bursts when I plug my laptop into the Net. Are these chunks of mail
from me? :)

Same machine.
