// post.cc
// Routines to deliver incoming network messages to the correct
// "address" -- a mailbox, or a holding area for incoming messages.
// This module operates just like the US postal service (in other
// words, it works, but it's slow, and you can't really be sure if
// your mail really got through!).
//
// Note that once we prepend the MailHdr to the outgoing message data,
// the combination (MailHdr plus data) looks like "data" to the Network
// device.
//
// The implementation synchronizes incoming messages with threads
// waiting for those messages.
