Re: please ask <www4mail@ftp.uni-stuttgart.de> to CANCEL ALL my past requests up to now

Hi Thomas,

Somehow the headache question was soon settled after I got a
total of 40MB.  The bug with www4mail@ftp.uni-stuttgart.de> was: it failed
to answer requests instanatly but ,after 6 months, it suddenly started to
answer these 6-month-old but now utterly useless requests, thus causing the
congestion.

Yesterday China was overjoyed to win the 2008 Olympiad.

Thanks for your belated but valuable help!
Jin
