The last services version I downloaded was 4.2, but I've been making
independent changes since about May of last year (though it wasn't until about
March of this year that I first noticed the todo list ;). I'd been wondering
about that e-mail forwarding for a while now, and I was wondering if services
couldn't just call on sendmail to handle the actual mail sending .............

Oh, and was a solution to the problem of having SIGHUP work only once ever
found? I've been looking into it, and it seems not to be a services-specific
problem .......

(By the way, I just joined this list last week, so I'm sorry if that's already
been covered ...........)
