The obvious answer is that if your corporate email policy makes you look like 
an idiot, post to mailing lists from a personal email address that doesn't make 
you look like an idiot.

This also spares the list from out-of-office messages from Exchange servers 
too stupid to refrain from sending such messages to mailing lists.

Regards,
Tim.

I think I'll leave this to my new sig.

the newer Cisco stuff like the ASR 1000/7600/CRS-1?


Forgive the dumb question, but what's wrong with using a 6509 as a T1 
aggregation device?  Port density not cost-effective?  I've seen it 
used that way on a number of occasions with cheap M13 muxes and DS3 
interfaces.

You might want to post this over to cisco-nsp because there are lots of
options depending upon your configuration.  If you're looking at port
density it seems to me you would want your router/switch to have the biggest
mux ports possible.  So, you could look at OC-3 or even higher in the router
platforms.  You can get up to an OC-12 channelized, but it all depends upon
your configuration.
