Hey all,

A situation receive arose regarding Georgetown University and an 
ill-fated mail message being sent out to the entire university community
in error. In summary, someone sent a message out to the entire student
body
which contained sensitive data. As a result of this they took their mail
system down for
14 hours (they use Groupwise) and through a script of sorts that entered
each mailbox and 
removed the message.

I don't know how many people here face situations like this, but I have
been
asked if it is possible to have such a procedure in case something like
that were
to ever occur here. 

Is there a script/procedure available for doing something like this? 
Is it at all possible, I'm sure it is.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! I don't ever want to take my
system down
for 14 hours more or less and have to do this by hand should it ever
occur.

For those of you that would like to read the article, here is the link..
