never, ever put words in my mouth or words i have not yet typed onto a
screen. perhaps this makes me sound like a simpleton, but ultimately, i
dont give a shit how the mail gets to me as long as it gets there. period.
i'm not interested in details, semantics, methodry or administration
bullshit. i am a user, in the end. details and the ilk bore me more than
bad 70's porn.

in this regard, i really don't know nor care what an mx is, nor an rfc.
nor do i really give two shits about what a hardship this might be to the
two people with something called broken exchange servers. i'm happy just
being able to get my mail and send it by my more-than-capable husband and
his slightly underpowered machine (NOT THAT MACHINE YOU PERVS).
