19:04.10 | kjs | hum... when your email address is cached on those damn mailing list cache sites is there any way to get them removed |
19:05.33 | antiphase | Which damned mailing list cache sites? o.O |
19:06.31 | kjs | markmail.org etc |
19:07.26 | kjs | LUG lists seem to do the same |
19:13.07 | antiphase | You mean mailing list archives? |
19:13.21 | antiphase | Public ones tend to obfuscate or remove addresses |
19:17.33 | kjs | well stupidly, I left my sig in my email so office phone number is getting spamemd with automated machines :s |
19:28.59 | AndyMillar | orly? |
19:29.07 | AndyMillar | considers putting a premium rate number in his sig |
19:29.14 | kjs | yes rly |
19:29.19 | AndyMillar | tied to asterisk that just picks up and listens |
19:29.29 | kjs | haha |
19:29.42 | kjs | good plan |
19:30.11 | AndyMillar | "Thank you for calling, your call is currently in a queue and will be answered as quickly as possible" |
19:30.30 | kjs | you are at queue possition 100022 |
19:31.30 | antiphase | People with email signatures should be burned at the stake |
19:32.30 | AndyMillar | some regulated are required to have them |
19:32.35 | kjs | for list mails you mean ? |
19:32.46 | kjs | yeah you have to have them for company mail. |
19:32.58 | AndyMillar | and it's a pain when people don't |
19:33.02 | AndyMillar | since you can't find their number :p |
19:36.05 | antiphase | Don't send non-company email from your company account then, and the world will be a happy bullshit signature free place |
19:36.09 | antiphase | \o/ |
19:39.34 | AndyMillar | you also shouldn't send non-company emails from a company account :-p |

21:02.49 | z00dax | I like the ones that say 'if you get this by mistake, delete it' ... |
21:04.52 | AndyMillar | they all do :p |
21:05.41 | z00dax | but you can never get an email by mistake.. |
21:05.56 | z00dax | emails are delivered where they are, due to policy/setup/config/routing |
21:06.07 | z00dax | its not like door no,2's mail being dropped in house no 3 |
21:06.28 | wethrin | What if the sender types the wrong address in? |
21:06.51 | z00dax | if he/she clicks send, then its a email sent to that destination by design |
21:07.20 | wethrin | It's human error |
21:07.27 | wethrin | Still a mistake. Just not a technical one |
21:08.12 | z00dax | but then responsibility for that rests with the guy typing in the wrong email add. not me who got it |
21:08.37 | wethrin | true |
21:08.37 | z00dax | humm so what if someone sets up smtp greeting to say'all mail delivered here is mine, to do as I please' |
21:09.09 | z00dax | the fact that no human really ever sees that, unless they are sending email using telnet 25... might add an interesting twist. |
21:09.33 | wethrin | disclaimers in signatures don't have legal ground |
21:10.10 | z00dax | do you know if they have ever been tried in court ? |
21:13.44 | wethrin | I don't believe so |
21:13.47 | wethrin | Ask Geeklawyer :) |
