more importantly, the dates they were sent (from my address) were
during the period I was out of town, and my system was down.


That's really bizarre.  I had something similar happen to me when we were testing
out our systems servers to see if they would crash when the year 2000 rolled around.  We
meant to set the computers' clocks to 2020 and see if there were any anomalies.  As
it happens, the clock software defaulted to the twentieth century and  the date went in as
1920, not 2020. 

I was unaware of the 1920 date until I came in to work the next morning and opened
up my email.  There were two messages urging me to vote for Warren Harding, and
a note from Dorothy Parker asking to be taken off the mailing list for alt. suicide.
She said, "Might as well live."

That was so strange.
