Don't Send Me Email

My box is all filled up, and the mail server won’t let me in to empty it. I spent a big chunk of time yesterday trying to fix the problem, but I was unsuccessful.

If you emailed me in the last few days, there’s a good chance I didn’t get it. When the problem’s solved, I’ll let you know, okay?
