One of our customers insisted we turn it on. We did so. Then @Home went out of business, but someone with OOO turned on still managed to get a message from someone @home.net. OOO sent to @home.net, but got a bounce message back. That bounce message trigger the OOO again. The system looped like that until over 50,000 messages had been processed and 2+ GB of disk space had been consumed by transaction log files, at which point the IS crashed. It took several hours to clean up the mess. OOO is turned off, now. -- Ben Scott <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> | The opinions expressed in this message are those of the author and do not | | necessarily represent the views or policy of any other person, entity or | | organization.
