I wanted to test my various redirection and forwarding schemes in place...
`for m in alex@gnu.org alex@emacswiki.org kensanata@gmail.com aschroeder@thinkmo.de alex.schroeder@openlaw.ch; do echo test | mail -s $m $m; done`
And a bit later:
||Alex Schroeder||aschroeder@thinkmo.de - test||12:35 pm|| ||:--:||:--:||:--:|| ||Alex Schroeder||alex@emacswiki.org - test||12:32 pm|| ||Alex Schroeder||alex.schroeder@openlaw.ch - test||12:31 pm|| ||Alex Schroeder||kensanata@gmail.com - test||12:25 pm|| ||Alex Schroeder||alex@gnu.org - test||12:25 pm||
I sent this from a FSF account, and surprisingly the mails that had to round trip via Europe took several minutes longer. Somehow I’ve gotten used to the idea that geographical distance is no longer relevant. *Internet distance* is measured in bandwidth and data congestion, not in kilometers travelled.
