Can someone unconfuse me. The previous SA of my machine renamed vacation to
vacation.dont.use as there was some case where we had the spool volume
fill up and crash the system, due to a looping email message.
Trouble is, he's gone, I can't find anyone who remembers *exactly* what
happened, and there's a vague memory that DEC said, Yes it's broken.
I've looked at the archives without coming to any conclusions.
So, what I would like to know is this: Is there a site where I can get
the latest version of vacation? I've tried poking about, but got nowhere
due to my inability to figure out what to search for that gives me
useful sites.
Is there a known looping problem with vacation?
I've seen mention of a Larry Wall Perl version of vacation, but not
where that lives so that I my get a copy. Any comments on that?
Thanks!
