I haven't seen any Roguemoticons for a long while. I don't remember
when they stopped.

The main point is I don't see the Roguemoticon images any more in the
message header when viewing messages. The only images I now see in the 
message header are from address book entries.

A secondary point is the server that hosted the Roguemoticon images,
and emailed updates when an image was added or deleted, seems to not
be performing as it used to. (In additiaddition, a filter used to pull the
new image from the server and update my local rogues.msl file if a
message came in with un unrecognised handle in the X-Rogues header.)

That's right. The title now just says "Welcome to" without
"Roguemoticons" on the end; most of the page is still the same.
