IMHO, this is worth mentioning in the user's manual.

P.S.  Sorry for the possibly messed-up messages you will see from me in
the
near future, as well as for a nasty mailer.  Our sysadmins here changed
the
email setup, and it will take some time for me to recover.  In the
meantime,
I have an alternative of not responding at all, which I decided to
reject.
