I was sure I read that at some time, but now that I look through my books, albeit briefly, I don't find any evidence to support the theory of everyone going to Mandos at least for a time. I apologize for any confusion it may have caused.
At least it would make a great fan-fic. Gollum and Frodo meeting without the Ring between them anymore. Potentially very moving.

I guess we were posting at the same time. I also didn't mean to imply that sailing west was punishment. Some wounds heal more easily than others. I believe that Frodo's claim on the Ring, or actually the subsequent guilt he felt, was the only wound he suffered that could not find healing in Middle Earth. He had to seek the West to feel whole again.
