The subject says it all. In general, you should ALWAYS use the address barr@math.mcgill.ca since I can adjust that for the viccissitudes of computerdom. What is happening is that someone is getting into it and sending out gobs of material, enough to generate official complaints from downstream computers and the CC here has turned it off. This happened last summer and we assumed it was ftp, but now we have turned that off, as most of you know. To make matters worse, our technician is a student. We moved the computer to the computer centre last summer because our offices had no air conditioning and the CC absolutely will not permit students to enter for any reason whatever. I guess we will have to take it out.
