Ian, should you have used a mailer with support for Mail-Followup-To,
you wouldn't have to do that manually. :-)

This is what ASUSTeK has in the ACPI DSDT of the specific motherboard
where the test was run.

It's all documented in the manual page for aibs(4) — two upper limits
for temperatures are provided.  On OpenBSD, DragonFly and NetBSD,
