I remember this very well; the failure of their e-mail system disrupted
non-Telstra e-mail traffic too, which caused me to lose important
e-mails addressed to me, and also important e-mails that I sent. This in
turn caused the break up of a team for a university assignment, which
also caused me to fail that assignment, and caused me to fail the whole
unit (by just four marks!) and meant I had to spend another semester at
university!

Moral of the story: Use SpamAssassin instead; it doesn't generate return
traffic and it works extremely well to stop spam. You're looking at
someone who doesn't get spam on their SA-protected account anymore!
