For your amusement:



And a pretty good page on why they're not a good idea:



(The rest of Jeff's "netrant" site is a great read, too.)

And to get you to check out the above links, I provide you with the
following example. ;)

* IMPORTANT INFORMATION/DISCLAIMER *
This document should be read only by those persons to whom it is addressed.
If you have received this message it was obviously addressed to you and
therefore you can read it, even it we didn't mean to send it to you.
However, if the contents of this email make no sense whatsoever then you
probably were not the intended recipient, or, you are a mindless cretin;
either way, you should immediately delete yourself & destroy your computer!
Once you have taken this action please contact us.. no you idiot, you cant
use your computer, you just destroyed it, and by the way, you are also
deleted, but we digress..

The Originator of this email is not liable for the transmission of the
information contained in this communication, unless they are the originator
in which case they probably are liable and rightly so considering the
content of the aforementioned communication.

In the event that the originator did not send this email to you, then
please return it to us and attach a scanned-in picture of your mothers
brothers wife wearing nothing but cami-knickers, and we will immediately
refund you exactly half of what you paid for the can of Pal Meaty-Bites you
bought when you went to Woolies yesterday.

We take no responsibility for non-receipt of this email because we are
running Windows NT & everyone knows how glitchy that can be. In the event
that you do get this message then please note that we take no
responsibility for that either. Nor will we accept any liability, tacit or
implied, for any damage you may or may not incur as a result of receiving,
or not, as the case may be, from time to time, notwithstanding all
liabilities implied or otherwise, ummm,shit, where was I..umm, no matter
what happens, IT's NOT, and NEVER WILL BE, OUR FAULT!

The comments & opinions expressed herein are my own and NOT those of my
employer, who, if he knew I was sending emails and surfing porno
sites,would cut off my gonads and feed them to me for afternoon tea.
