Mail storms eh? I'd imagine if Tom was subscribed to the standard list he'd have a maelstrom of flames to wade through when he got back ... sorry I just had to make that play on words ;-) > The 200MB inboxes I mentioned some >months back weren't hypothetical. Reminds me of a loop we had at one stage ... 2 mail servers, both bounce virus infected emails from external servers and sends a warning mail to the intended recipient but one didn't block infected emails from being sent out. A user from that one sends an infected email to the other. You could imagine the flurry of activity that could have happened if an admin wasn't just by chance at the server console ... hehe >Actually, if Tom's autoresponder had quoted the entire digest back, as >did happen in a couple of the abovementioned storms, all our inboxes >could be stuffed to the gills in 5 mins. Nasty. Umm ... I fail to see how THAT could happen given the digest only goes out ever X days ... it'd be interesting though if he subscribed to the standard list and his autoresponder ended up responding to its own autoresponses ... >Anyways, this subject has been beaten to death before. Time to let it >rest...again. 8-) Bah ...
