Hmm... On second thought: we tend to look for clever technical solutions to problems, and sometimes there is a much simpler and obvious approach. Open a perfectly normal webmail account. Visit half a dozen porn sites, register the new email address for whatever promotions and "entertainment" they promise you that do not require a credit card up front. Set up a filter to not send anything to spam and to mark everything as read. I am guessing that after just a few days you'll have a rather voluminous - and always up-to-date - email account you can safely present for inspection. Keep complimenting the security agent loudly on being very diligent, and hope that his workstation will be infected with something nasty as a bonus (if they insist on using your laptop you'll hope that your Linux is immune). -- Oleg Goldshmidt | [email protected] _______________________________________________ Linux-il mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
