19:04.10kjshum... when your email address is cached on those damn mailing list cache sites is there any way to get them removed
19:05.33antiphaseWhich damned mailing list cache sites? o.O
19:06.31kjsmarkmail.org etc
19:07.26kjsLUG lists seem to do the same
19:13.07antiphaseYou mean mailing list archives?
19:13.21antiphasePublic ones tend to obfuscate or remove addresses
19:17.33kjswell stupidly, I left my sig in my email so office phone number is getting spamemd with automated machines :s
19:28.59AndyMillarorly?
19:29.07AndyMillarconsiders putting a premium rate number in his sig
19:29.14kjsyes rly
19:29.19AndyMillartied to asterisk that just picks up and listens
19:29.29kjshaha
19:29.42kjsgood plan
19:30.11AndyMillar"Thank you for calling, your call is currently in a queue and will be answered as quickly as possible"
19:30.30kjsyou are at queue possition 100022
19:31.30antiphasePeople with email signatures should be burned at the stake
19:32.30AndyMillarsome regulated are required to have them
19:32.35kjsfor list mails you mean ?
19:32.46kjsyeah you have to have them for company mail.
19:32.58AndyMillarand it's a pain when people don't
19:33.02AndyMillarsince you can't find their number :p
19:36.05antiphaseDon't send non-company email from your company account then, and the world will be a happy bullshit signature free place
19:36.09antiphase\o/
19:39.34AndyMillaryou also shouldn't send non-company emails from a company account :-p

21:02.49z00daxI like the ones that say 'if you get this by mistake, delete it' ...
21:04.52AndyMillarthey all do :p
21:05.41z00daxbut you can never get an email by mistake..
21:05.56z00daxemails are delivered where they are, due to policy/setup/config/routing
21:06.07z00daxits not like door no,2's mail being dropped in house no 3
21:06.28wethrinWhat if the sender types the wrong address in?
21:06.51z00daxif he/she clicks send, then its a email sent to that destination by design
21:07.20wethrinIt's human error
21:07.27wethrinStill a mistake. Just not a technical one
21:08.12z00daxbut then responsibility for that rests with the guy typing in the wrong email add. not me who got it
21:08.37wethrintrue
21:08.37z00daxhumm so what if someone sets up smtp greeting to say'all mail delivered here is mine, to do as I please'
21:09.09z00daxthe fact that no human really ever sees that, unless they are sending email using telnet 25... might add an interesting twist.
21:09.33wethrindisclaimers in signatures don't have legal ground
21:10.10z00daxdo you know if they have ever been tried in court ?
21:13.44wethrinI don't believe so
21:13.47wethrinAsk Geeklawyer :)
