Re: acn site name (tarnover.dyndns.org) troubles explained (coward)

[karl@blackdown.com]

Oh, welcome the the entertainment of running an ftp site like this. 
I ran the ISP where apple.cabi.net was housed, so emails from these
folks just went into la la land. They came in frequently and some
of the emails were particularly creative. 

Soon as I'm done moving house, apple.cabi.net will be going back up. 

Cheers, 
Karl
