[Xastir] Yet another old-time thing...

[Gerry Creager N5JXS]

I think we're contemporaries with Xastir, but I may have you beat with 
KarnCode contributions.  I had some questins, and tracked down some 
sendmail anomolies Phil had in the original.  Sendmail:  That's the LAST 
time I made THAT mistake!  At one point, Phil claimed there were less 
than a dozen folks who really understand sendmail, and at least 4 of 
them are clinically dead...

(I ain't carrying the card yet, but my grad students are convinced I'm 
an old fart)
