There was a message, earlier on, about there being a fault with that,
and there'll be an update about this (to the manual, I think).

manuals refers to program defaults, which may be different than the
default configuration file that you're supplied with.

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