It was actually the output of fortune.

Re: [9fans] Setting up Mail in Acme on the Raspberry Pi.
Well, to clarify, in the old days, if a Windows function call failed, you'd call GetLastError to get a numerical error code, and FormatMessage to get a string describing the error, So if the error code was 0, meaning that the windows call succeeded, FormatMessage would return The operation completed successfully. Obviously that's completely stupid.
