Great, my email address is `kill -9 -1`@scottyelich.com.  Lets give
this to novice shell users (I'm sure the kiddies can think of
even worse addresses).  :-/

I wonder what could be done to make a .qmail alias for an address such
as [EMAIL PROTECTED]  I haven't looked it up to see if qmail
is smart about quoting -- but it would be amusing to see a novice try to
get a / into a filename.
