Subject: [ukha_d] A Cautionary
Tale
Guys,
I belong to another
group from Yahoo about road fuel and taxation and today something happened
that should be a warning to all!
One plonker on a
permanent connection, routed to his work mailing address had an
auto-responder on, this, effectively, created a
feedback loop on the Yahoo system resulting in literally hundreds of mails
being sent because of this idiot. So the morale
of
the tale is…sending Yahoo
mailings to something other than a work mail address if
your company uses auto-responders.
It has taken many of
us
hours to clear down this stupid mistake.
For this reason,
Mark,
could you check the
“bounce” status on my address and reset it if needed; you need to be a moderator to do this as far
as I can see. Thanks.
K.
Very pissed
off I might add as I
think I’ve missed loads of mail due to allocations being
exceeded!
