That Tom is that rare jewel... a wise Texan. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Friese, Casey Sent: Wednesday, December 18, 2002 1:17 PM To: Exchange Discussions Cut and cross posted from another list - some good ones to think about <Tom Meunier> "I'm not in, but you have hit and now verified a live address. Please put me on your "A" list for resale to other spammers." "I'm the president of the company, and obviously wealthy. Since I've just told you I'm away for two weeks, please go to the county tax assessor's web site and look up the location of my residence. Help yourself." "Hello customer. I'm not in, and you can try contacting someone else in my firm who wants your business. The onus is, however, all on you, as I'm too lazy to delegate my email to somebody else while away. Please don't go visit our competitor, who is far too professional to send you an ascii answering machine message like this." </Tom Meunier> -----Original Message----- From: Candee Vaglica [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, December 18, 2002 3:30 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: Ouut Oof Offfice responses - Security Risk This might help: http://www.equiinet.com/press/pressreleases/24_06_2002.htm -----Original Message----- From: Archie Call [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, December 18, 2002 3:02 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Ouut Oof Offfice responses - Security Risk Our company is proposing that we allow the Ouut Oof Offfice feature to be turned on for Internet Mail in Exchange 5.5. I have seen comments on this newsgroup discussing many security reasons for not doing this! I have looked in the PDF file but am have diffculty locating this discussion. I remember someone who wrote a little story that was very convincing. The downsides I see are: potential for mail looping (bugs in Exchange or Mailbox filled up); you tell the cyber crooks that you are gone and your house can be robbed; you tell the spammer they have a valid address; much increased mail traffic especially during a virus outbreat; you send numerous messages to everyone in a ListServer. If anyone has anything to add here, it would be greatly appreciated. ...Archie Call Note: I misspelled OOO so as not trigger your filter. _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
