But Steve, Neither of us has read John's company policy, so who's to say what it specifically prohibits? Eventually, we all have to decide ourselves where to skirt the rules a little in order to get our jobs done. Does Google Groups violate a "no non-corporate email" policy, even in spirit? I don't care to debate it, that's for John to decide.
More importantly: I thought that this was a technical discussion list. Its way more fun to discuss technical ways for John to get into trouble than to whine about his employer's policies, which we can't do anything about anyway :-) Kirk On Fri, Aug 29, 2008 at 5:19 PM, Steve Comstock <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>wrote: > Kirk Wolf wrote: > >> John, >> >> A few options: >> >> - Bounce your Web client or smtp/pop client through either: >> - A Tor proxy for the selected domain >> - An ssh session that port forwards through your home linux box >> - Run a secure SOCKS proxy service on your linux box or use one of the >> public services >> >> - Use VNC or some other remote desktop to get to your home Linux box and >> run >> the email client or browser client there. >> >> - Doesn't Google Groups allow posting?
