Songs

(to be sung to the traditional tune nowadays associated with 'The House of the Rising Sun')

There is a box in New Museums,
They call it PPSW,
It handles all the inc'ming mail,
And routes it to /dev/null.

My MUA was good ol' mutt,
My transport was POP3.
My server was a hermes box
Down in New Museums.

Now the only thing most servers need,
Is an MX record book,
But they're never, ever satisfied
When they talk to PPSW.

Pat Stewart, tell your users 
Not to copy how I've failed,
Sent my mail into the bit bucket
In the Box of the Bouncing Mail.

With one eye on my mailbox,
And the other on the spool,
I'm goin' back to New Museums
To check that filter rule.

Well there is a box in New Museums,
They call it PPSW,
It handles all the inc'ming mail,
And routes it to /dev/null.
