I was up late hacking during the night it happened, and was getting really pissed off how slow the system (a Vax 8600) was running, because sendmail was going ape-shit! Anybody else remember when Jordan Hubbard tried to see what happened when he rwall'ed to a wildcard yp net group that included every computer in /etc/hosts? He received a whopping 743 email messages in response to it! "One of the people who received my message was Dennis Perry, the Inspector General of the ARPAnet (in the Pentagon), and he wasn't exactly pleased. (I hear his Interleaf windows got scribbled on)" http://catless.ncl.ac.uk/Risks/4.73.html#subj10.1 http://catless.ncl.ac.uk/Risks/4.73.html#subj10.1
