Dear all,

I am starting getting mails internally it seems. Happens each time I do
something "important" like installing software. Here is an example just
a few minuts old:

----------

sko at snude.dk:~$ sudo pkg install gimp

We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System
Administrator. It usually boils down to these three things:

     #1) Respect the privacy of others.
     #2) Think before you type.
     #3) With great power comes great responsibility.

 From running 'mail', I'd normally expect to see some text, but this is
different. How do I prevent this from happening?
