There seems to be an MX record for 'cvs.gnome.org'. I don't know if that
was added since you sent this e-mail.

Fixed.

Sysadmins: I copied /etc/gnome.org/master-mail
to /etc/gnome.org/cvs-mail and hacked it to create a virtual table
instead of an aliases table. I added that table to the postfix main.cf,
and added the 'export-cvs-mail.pl' script to cron. I'll try to write up
about the 'master-mail' and 'cvs-mail' scripts on the Infrastructure
wiki when I get a spare moment.
