1. I'm not at all sure I'm in favour of adding specific configuration
to all our servers for individual external services.  How many might we
end up trying to "support" in the future?

2. What made you think the password you picked and told us in #opers is
at all secure?  If it's worth using a password, surely it's worth using
a non-obvious one?

3. Mibbit's wiki web site seems to be broken at the moment so I can't
see what configuration they suggest adding anyway.  I'll have another
look some other day.
