Comment:

 One stopgap measure in the meantime would be to recognize that gmail users
 can't get osx or linux packages, and tell them so in the email we send.
 There's no reason gettor's responses need to ignore the domain that
 they're answering.

 If we want to get slightly fancier, once we have split osx / linux
 packages, we could automatically send the split ones when responding to a
 gmail or yahoo account. But we don't have split packages yet, so that's
 not relevant yet.

 In any case we need to do *something*. We've told everybody to mail gettor
 from their gmail account, and now those are bad instructions.
