There's definitely a sliding scale for lies, and everybody positions themselves differently on that scale.
Here's an example.. I've been receiving a lot of forwarded mails from certain family members. Everything from anti-Obama hate to kitten pictures to chain letters, etc. I have told these family members that I don't want to receive these kinds of emails, but they don't seem to get the message.
So over the weekend I configured postfix to bounce them back to the sender. Easy fix, and I included a note in the bounceback with some fake legalease about noncompliance with the CAN SPAM act.
Problem solved, I thought. But when I told my wife about it, she was kind of upset. She considers what I did 'lying' to my family. So everybody draws the line in a different place.
Still, I think the fake legalease is much kinder and faster way to solve the problem than a strongly worded "stop sending me this crap" message.
