Duh....  Can't tell my left from my right.... :)

Seems weird that all this mail gets dumped into the same mailbox at every
ISP...  Note this one exception from the RFC - "Note: This reserved local-part

"postmaster", and even "poStmASteR" is to be accepted"

I guess I'll just have to live with it.
