CRAP! Not this again! Whoever suggested that I move mail from one
server to anotther by fetchmail was WRONG! (Sorry to be so forceful)

RIT doesn't allow students to use their computers as mail servers, so
any mail that gets sent to a personal computer gets bounced.

So, when I tried to fetch my 14000 messages, they got bounced back to
the original sender.

As you might guess, I've done a lot of apologising, recently.
