mailathon

Well, the Powers that Beep have fixed the password lock on the postgrad societty's mailing list so people can no longer engage in recursive spamming. This is a shame, in my opinion. The emails "Re: take me off this list" kept on coming well in to last night and for this morning. As far as I can see, a group of asian students thought that the phrasing of the original "take me off this list, I don't want these emails" message was too, too beautiful to be wasted with but one transmission so took to copying and pasting that particular message in to their own. Joy. A few emails had just started to arrive extoling the wonders of receiving so many communications so regularly and how loved it was making some of us feel, my own favourite being the subversive "please keep me on this lovely list" message. Oh, and then there was the message mailed just to me (bless) explaining how the sender was confused and didn't have a list and maybe I should take it up with accomodation services.

Maybe I will, jb, maybe I will.

But now someone has fixed it and we can no longer mail eachother. I'm giving serious thought to grouping everyone together using the emails they sent me and group mailing everyone just to say how much I enjoyed working with them.

Ah well.

Suitmonkeys are here. Not wearing suits. Not technically monkeys either. But you get the idea.
