<NOTE TO="SELF">
Maybe we should put a special marker in -currents sendmail and
reject all email to the current list if they don't originate
from such a system.
</NOTE>

So, if you're not running -current, please stop whining on the
-current list will you ?

4.0 will have a perfectly good diskdriver, we probably have two
entire months to find and nail any remaning bugs, so what the
proton do you think you're acheiving by whining here ?

I'll tell you in case you can't figure out the answer to that rather
simple question:  You're annoying people and wasting developer
time.  That's what.
