Re: telnet_mail and a poke at contact information.

2001-09-19 Thread David Johnson

Hi Duc,

I did the write up on the various methods of e-mailing.  I would be willing 
to write it up more formally for the FAQ.  I'll have it to you by Friday.

As far as contact information goes:
This is kind of silly.  It is ridiculously easy to make an alternate e-mail 
address and subscribe to the list server.  Are we really going to start 
making phone calls before we answer questions on the list?  Most of the 
information provided here is freely available to anyone willing to read the 
Foxboro manual set (although the list is often helpful with the 
interpretation, tricks, etc).  If this is a real security concern then we 
should start sending PGP authenticated signatures with the messages, and do 
we really want that?

I am also sending Mark Holts latitude and longitude to our spy satellites 
to see if he is really there.


Regards,

David Johnson
Of course I'm who I say I am, why would anyone want to be me.

RE: telnet_mail and a poke at contact information.

2001-09-19 Thread Johnson, Alex (Foxboro)

I do think that it is polite and wise to have all of your contact
information on an e-mail. I for one get plenty of e-mails where a simple
phone call would clear the issue whereas an e-mail conversation can be
confusing.

Given how easy it is within Outlook and Notes to apply a signature, I think
one should. Of course, not everyone can, but those that can really ought to.
It's the nice thing to do.

I did not second the proposal for security reasons.

David is right.  Anyone who's capable of _using_ the I/A info here
for nefarious
purposes is certainly capable of bluffing their way onto the list.
As David
said, are you going to call those contact phone numbers each time
you post to
the list, even the ones on the other side of the planet?   Didn't
think so.

2001-09-19 Thread Stear, Bo

Actually, I think it is an excellent idea.  Not to say that David Johnson may agree.  
Now, if you would all just add your socual security number and perhaps a credit card 
number or two, I could get on with it and retire in style...
