Interesting. I remember it being mentioned in the help patch, but it 
never seemed to work for me (at least on Windows). We can of course 
bring it back!

What I would also like to have is something like a [sendto( message, so 
we can reply only to a specific client, using the address we get from 
the new outlet.
