Lena - good point.
John,
Side issue to the dying queue-runner, but I think that confirms it as 'unwanted'.
Conversion quite aside, can you not reject these right up-front on
forward/reverse lookup fail or such?
I grep'ed some old, large logs and couldn't match any part of them, so probably
never took those or their sputniki on board to get *into* a queue.
