i'm trying to stick to stable (woody) but still have it include
Useful Features nonetheless. :)

i tried the configs for exim3 at your site, and i get a
double-header syndrome: the message is run through the spam
checks all right, but a whole new set of headers (plus new blank
line to signify end of headers) comes back:

DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #28 from Will Trillich <will@serensoft.com>
:
Would you like to have rxvt show you useful information in the
TITLE BAR of its X window? For example, to see your "present
working directory" in the title bar, include this in your bash
command prompt string:
	export PS1="\e]0;\w^G\u@\h$ "
Anything between the "\e]0;" and the control-G will be displayed
as the title of the rxvt window. (For data entry, you may need to
precede the ^G with ^V.)
