Re: Fw: WinNT 4.0 sp5 heart failure.

[Get raw message]
Is this with 1.3.5?  The latest snapshot?  CVS?  Do I *really* have to
ask for these kind of details?

FWIW, Earnie sent me email asking why fearnie_boyd@yahoo.com
couldn't send email to cygwin-developers .  I thought that the
answer to the question was kinda obvious but email to both
fearnie_boyd@yahoo.com and earnie_boyd@yahoo.com bounced.
