expressions in a file? Basically I want to combine "grep -f <file>"
to store the patterns and awk's $3 ~ /(AAA|BBB|CCC)/ ... I realize
I can do this with "egrep -f " and use regexp instead of strings, but
was wondering if there was some magic way to do this.

people used /usr/bin/mail, then RMail in emacs, then VMail in emacs.

they used to use in their school years. In my last two jobs though,

\_ Unix or m$?
\_ Unix. On M$ I always assume it's compromised.

The only other answer I can think of is to reinstall the
OS from scratch on another server and do an md checksum
