There's quite a few "running by default" services that don't seem
sensible defaults.  e.g. There's an ISDN service, and that's such an
unusual type of comms that I'd expect anyone using it would know how to
turn on the service for themselves.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.  I
read messages from the public lists.
