A new survey (sponsored by an e-mail filtering firm) shows about two-thirds of employees open e- mails of questionable character and one-third of those people forward them on to friends and colleagues. And the employees most likely to sling the spam are the IT staff, the people you'd think would know better! Spam can be a Pandora's box of non-PC content that can get you a pink slip faster than you can say "Frederick's of Hollywood." The survey sponsor says spam awareness needs to be "built into the culture of an organization" and not just jotted down in a handbook.
