I had trouble getting tip. That may be because I'm on OS X: I want to try it on a Linux box to narrow down the source of my problems. Given that it's currently 4PM on Friday, I don't think the IT staff is going to fix the firewall before Monday. So please excuse me while I scrounge up another Linux box or two.

After that happens, I'll fix up my patches as suggested by you and Linus, get myself a real mailer and resubmit.
