I was on the video crew. We shot some of the "PowerPoints" on the screen.
Also, from H2K2, the video was put out on VCD, as opposed to DVD. We'll see what happens this time.
Great. First we have the trojan that downloads kiddie porn (has anyone else ever heard of this one?) and now this.
Let's face it: SMTP is broken and it needs to be fixed. There has to be some way of authenticating senders and attachments to messages?
I'm not talking about some of the (innovative) kludges that people have come up with for SMTP, I'm talking about a bare-metal rebuild of the entire system. Sure it will be a pain, but when you move to a new place, you have to give your friends the new phone number and address -- giving a new e-mail address (on the new e-mail system) won't be all that bad will it?
See this reply.
I'm sure that spammers have much, much larger lists. Heck, if you can spend $99 for a CD with 500 million (or whatever) e-mail addresses, why stop at 400,000?:)
I wondered how long it would be until people were on to my little plan!:) NOT
I did wonder, as I posted this, if people would think that it was for spamming.
This is an opt-in newsletter for a talk radio show. Believe it or not, there can actually be legitimate ways of building a large subscriber base.:)

No, wait. Better never in this case.
True, it would be nice if the entire nation (actually, the entire world) would move.
It's probably more like switching from black & white TV to color TV. Or maybe moving from analog cell phones to digital ones, or...
Analogies are never perfect (TM)

"The Salt Mines" was my thought as well.
And if you're using Intel CPUs in the servers, it becomes...
"The Pit and the Pentium" *groan*
