The time I liked it was when I was sending a quote and had
misunderstood the destination address (or mistyped it, I forget which)
and so two things happened: First I had a chance to resend so that my
customer did not have to wait 5 days and maybe I would have lost him.
Secondly I had a number of re-inforcement messages reminding me to get
it right first time!

Thanks for that pointer. I didn't go looking because I <just knew> it
wasn't a qmail thing to do!
