It has been explained that the original offender's email server was
configured in *stupid mode* because of damagement, not because of
the techies.
fyi: PHB = pointed headed boss

to clarify: it is a complete outrage that an email server is set up
to barf out a whole screen full of worthless, erroneous and time
wasting "virus warning" messages back to a message sender *MONTHS*
(almost a *YEAR*?) after a text attachment has been sent to the
list.
certainly the above situation qualifies for the WHAT THE F* award
of the week, doesn't it?
certainly the list owner's attention ought to be brought to bear on
whether or not a subscriber ought to be allowed to remain if their
system is generating such a huge pile of unwanted fecal material,
and certainly consideration should be given to pressuring the email
admin, or other f*ing d*kheads in positions of "respoinsibility" at
said subscriber's corporation/organization into reversing their
f*ing stupid email configuration policy, no?
presumably an expression of outrage at the f*ing stupidity of said
f*ing email server configuration would tend to put the issue on
someones f*ing radar screen more than some "polite" request that
everyone ignores?
anyways, Tim was wrong in thinking that I was insulting fatcity's
email admin.
Tim's observations about language and tone were irrelevant and
lacking in substance, and frankly, regardless of Tim's many other
undoubtedly great/vast/endless virtues, culinary or not, I don't
care about such ninny-like posturing and false rectitude anyway, so
his advice was completely wasted on me.
I'm sure everyone was infinitely amused and entertained by your
story of being fooled into eating a dead animals' testicles
(apparently that topic wasn't covered in 5th grade).

Sigh. I wish I understood half the words used in this exchange. Or maybe
not. But I still think Tim is a cool guy and I'm looking forward to
drinking beer with him next time we meet. The first time I met with Tim
was in Denver where he tricked me into eating something he called Rocky
Mountain Oysters. If he ever makes it to Denmark I'll trick him into
eating our world-famous blood sausage.
