The underlying problem may well have been solved, but we'll be
dealing with the fallout for a while.
I just got a few more of these as well. Here are the Received:

Camelot sent the thing 10 hours ago (05:21 EDT, or 09:21 UTC) --
I'm guessing this was before they claimed to have fixed things --
but fencepost.gnu.org didn't retransmit it until 15:00 EDT (19:00
UTC). Under the circumstances, it's not too surprising that it's
taking fencepost a long time to chew through its mail queue.

With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not
necessarily a good idea.
