how does one pronounce 'procmail'? 

is it prok mail or pross mail?  the latter relates to the presumed source
of 'proc', process, but the former seems to fit better in the new word.
without really verifying this, it's my suspicion that english would never
have a c that sounded like an s directly before an m.  in that context, i
think it would always be pronounced like a k.  but since (i assume)
Stephen made up the word, i guess he can decide to pronounce it any way he
pleases.
