Sincerest apologies

I've recently been informed that I've ended up sending multiple copies of a
(rather lengthy) letter to www-talk. I wish to express my most sincere
apologies. Although I'm sure I look like an idiot, I must plead innocence;
all of my posts have been returned with the following bounce:

----- Transcript of session follows -----
sh: /usr/local/bin/deliver: not found
"|/usr/local/bin/deliver -b /userd/tbl/hypertext/WWW/Archive/www-talk.archive"... unknown mailer error 1
sh: /usr/local/bin/deliver: not found
"|/usr/local/bin/deliver -b /userd/tbl/Mailboxes/WWW_Talk_Unread.mbox/mbox"... unknown mailer error 1
554 "|/usr/lib/sendmail -odi -oi -f www-talk-request@info.cern.ch www-talk-members"... Service unavailable

----- Unsent message follows -----
[...]

The last line (sendmail www-talk-members: service unavailable) caused me to
believe the message had not been actually delivered, which I believe was a
reasonable assumption.

My apologies for the worldwide sucking of disk space that I've caused.

Much thanks to Tim Evans for preventing my further embarrassment.
