Not quite 30 years ago, I encountered Mark's TOPS-20 MMAILR package.
That was my first exposure to what would later be called Open Source
and to the ARPANET that was then evolving into the Internet.  A few
years later, I was a sysadmin at MIT, Mark was my opposite number at
Stanford, and he spent a lot of time correcting my silly ideas about
how to write DNS support for the TOPS-20 mailsystem.  Much later, we
met again when Mark brought IMAP to the IETF, and he was kind enough
to listen to my silly ideas on using IMAP as a replacement for PCMAIL.

Mark, I'd say it in TECO, but it'd be hard for Annie to pronounce.
Sayonara, and thanks for all the hacks.
