Harvard had a little problem notifying some applicants of their admission status. The school uses e-mail to tell eager applicants "yes" or "no." Too bad the most important e-mails in the lives of some 75 to 100 young people were blocked and sent back to Cambridge as spam! Crimson- faced AOL still can't explain why. Most of those would-be students and rejects had to go the old fashioned route to find out -- they picked up the phone and called.
