May I suggest that a memo on the existence of the blocked-address site,
and any other pertinent information like Sherry's be put out to the
departmental security mail lists.

I just added my second to our security list so that he will get SNS info
while I'm on vacation, but he wouldn't have heard about the blocked
address lookup site if I hadn't been here watching micronet.

I know it's kind of a right hand/left hand/left-center hand/outer right
hand/middle hand thing.....
