hey guys it was a very big log file of an entire season of nfl football.
i wanted to show you guys how good I am at the game and how I won the
superbowl. i had to send it through gmail on the website because it made
my email client go crazy when I tried putting the whole thing into a
message.

Hi list,
I just received an email from "Josh Kennedy" (not Josh k - this may be important),
with a listed size of about 1100 kb, and subject something to do with "jim's nfl
football" (I deleted the message, and don't have the exact line anymore).
As soon as I tried to read the message my mail client went ballistic; fully
loading up my processor and sending memory usage through the roof (fellow nerds
that's 400mb). I'm not sure if this was just the world's largest game log file,
or if it was something more sinister, but I'd advise anybody who got the
message to avoid opening it.
I'm hoping that this really was just a bad decision to send an ungodly large
log through email and not some kind of virus on list, but given the way my
machine reacted I figured it'd probably be best to post an alert about it just
in case (if you do open the message, killing my mail client seems to have fixed
the issue).
I'd also note that I'm not trying to accuse anybody here - rather to offer a
note of caution and a request that we try not to post logs that're larger than
a bunch of novels put together.
