...or even that the receiving of an email automatically makes you
agree to such a disclaimer. I get these from recruiters, and it doesn't
stop me from posting the entire message to the web. As if!
There are lots of people who don't know anything about email
[ettiquite], and continue to blast out garbage. I've tried to politely ask
people not to do things, like typing in all caps, putting email to 500
people in the To: field, and not typing the whole message in the subject
-- only to have the person flame me for my trouble. It's like being
cut-off on the highway, honking your horn, and having the person flip you
the bird. (I almost ran over 5 people slowly walking across the street at
rush-hour today, on a 10 minute drive.)
What to do?
