…..Send messages calling for fonts not available
…..to the recipient(s). This can (in the case of
…..Zmail) totally disable the user’s machine and
…..mail system for up to a whole day in some
…..circumstances.
Trivialize a user’s bug report by pointing out
that it was fixed independently long ago in a
system that hasn’t been released yet.
—-further suggestions along these lines welcomed.—-
