I can’t wait for someone to create an rss feed which sends an email which updates the rss feed which sends another email. Repeat ad infinitum. I wonder what would break first.
- gerdesj 6y ago22 or so years ago I moved up from second to third line. I had just got a new home email address and for some reason forwarded home to work and work to home. At the time that was done as two separate and blissfully ignorant decisions. The work 512Kb Kilostream line passed away peacefully sometime overnight. My home modem nearly melted but I'd exceeded my 10Mb? quota anyway (probably less.) Apparently I was the first to do that there. GroupWise sprouted loop detection fairly soon after that event anyway and single instance storage helped keep the POAs up when reply all storms became popular.
