    Log Message:
    Refuse to send netmail to our own addresses

    as Keyop pointed out, at least for FTN netmail, this would just create an orphaned .msg file in the netmail directory: SBBSecho won't import it (by default) because it was created locally and won't export it to a packet because you don't have a link to yourself. Internet email would just loop back
    (if everything's configured and working) and sending to your own QWK-ID would've already been rejected. Hopefully nobody is depending on the Internet e-mail loopback functionality.

    There were sysop exemptions for when the "Allow Sending of ..." settings in SCFG->Networks->Internet E-mail and FidoNet were set to "No", but now those
    are defeated (if they're set to, even the sysop won't be able to send e-mail/ NetMail). If we really want to control *who* can send netmail, we should
    be using ARS for that rather than a toggle that just (confusingly) doesn't apply to the sysop(s).
