BTW, oddly, Python email lists are always polite and patient way

competitive culture. Philip is always very nice and doesn't engender
rudeness at all.
I think it's the nature of email. Due to some basic design flaws in
SMTP, mail servers are under constant hostile attack, and perfectly
innocent and well-run servers are frequently made to pay high penalties
for the mistakes of others on the internet. That's the kind of working
environment that would tend to make anyone cranky after a few years, I'd
think.
I don't know much about the postfix community, but at least as far as
qmail goes, djb is certainly rather notorious.
I really wonder how Philip has managed to stay so pleasant in the face
of this. :)
